"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Completely unconfirmed rumor has it that shooting started in Australia yesterday for the four-hour Farscape miniseries.

The cast must've just been ridiculously thrilled to show up for work yesterday. By now, Aeryn and John aren't even smarties I'd bet.

I should note that this is completely unconfirmed rumor. As in, I really don't know that it's true. As in, I have no direct or even third-hand confirmation of it.

And Henson still hasn't hammered out the distribution issues. Sigh.

I want an announcement, already.

Okay, I have 2nd-hand confirmation that shooting is ongoing as we type. Wheeee!

But still no announcement, and I don't know when there will be one. The tv business is a very strange place.

Random West Wing question. I don't usually watch it, but I keep running across the same repeat on Bravo, namely, the one where they keep referring to CJ's having made a mistake. What mistake? Sounds like she said something wrong in a press briefing. Any help?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

She has made numerous.

Huh, well, that's no exclusive club.

In this ep, they are prepping for the Pres to give a speech in NH, and Leo, back in DC, has someone else give a press brifing, but she doesn't want to, and Leo says, "I don't care." And earlier Leo tells CJ to quit being mad at him for mumblemumble, and the Pres asks Leo about her ... something like, how long is she on the hook or something. I think she may even go into a barn and try to resign at the end of the ep, but the Pres won't let her. I assumed that since they built much of the episode around her mistake, it might have been memorable.

I think that mistake talk refers to CJ having said something about the President being "relieved to be able to focus on real issues," where the issue he was "relieved" to NOT be talking about was his MS, and the issue he was "relieved" to be distracted by was some possible military action. It was a BIG flub, and she practically ran from the press room in tears.

Ugh, yeah, OK. That's pretty squirm inducing.

Thanks.

ETA: Being a president's press spokesperson has got to be all kinds of ulcer-making.
