I was almost pleased when 13 broke up with Foreman, not because he was ethically off the deep-end, but just because he was moving, way, way too fast. That made sense and was a nice twist on my expectations. But then she gets back with him…why? What has changed?

Err, that first sentence should read "all movies made in 3D, or all movies made in 2D", obviously.

It's not as if we need to choose between all movies being made 3D, or all movies being made in 3D. It's just a different technology, that will sometimes work awesomely, and sometimes be laughable. Like CGI. I thought My Bloody Valentine was an absolute hoot in 3D, and I'd definitely check out another dumb horror

Smoking Hot Nerds
Johnny Galecki looks really good in that photo up there. Wolowitz, too. Who knew that being a nerd was 90% poor coiffure choices?

I thought it was a little low on snap and pop as well - the gang was not quite as funny as they have been while harassing each other, and the video resume had some inspired moments but went on a little too long. However, Goth Lily calling Dr. X a "douche" gave me a giggle fit.

College Ted has got to be, like, first cousin's with Leonard from The Big Bang Theory. The resemblance is eerie.

Me.
I'm going to try to be wry, with a little twinkle. Always.

They're completely different animals, only connected by a basic premise and the first episode or two. The British Office (which I love), while funny, is barely a comedy - it's much more in the style of a true documentary about the banality of office life. The US version is a brilliant sitcom - even the dark and

I did see a theory on here at one point that the hair stylist was trying to make it appear that Michael had hairplugs in the first season, which, if true, is hilarious. He definitely had that spaced-out, super-slick look.

Gina Torres NEEDS to do a Random Roles! I just love her, going way back to they syndicated Hercules/Xena/Cleo 2525 stuff. She's so great, and badass, and she's been in everything. Total girl crush here.

You can tell who he loves, who gets invited to the Shakespeare readings. I imagine his sets are crazy cliquey. But he's Joss Whedon, so what the hell.

I remember a winner wore a dress made entirely of credit cards. That was pretty cool. That may have been the last time I watched more than 15 minutes of the Oscars, though. It seems that lately it's all about some gimmick - is it an entertaining train wreck? I'm curious.

I knew the Office was having a special post-Super Bowl ep - but I had no idea the super bowl was yesterday. I caught it in the nick of time.

It was definitely one more point in the Dwight's-a-serial-killer column.

"You've been defidrilated!"

I'm very surprised that Stanley isn't suing. Shocked, actually.

This is dumb, but was it clear to anyone else how Dwight got back into the office, considering he broke his key off in the lock and torched all the door handles? I'm just curious if there was something I missed (and my darn TIVO did not cooperate last night. I had to watch something when it actually AIRED. Crazy.)

Well, considering he convinced himself he was in love with Angela, the coldest fish in the ocean (at least where he's concerned), I think he could convince himself he was in love with a man, particularly if that man wasn't interested either. And it did seem like there were setting that up with the "gayer than Oscar"

SFU
I'll put in a vote for the first season or two of Six Feet Under on DVD. The coffin concept is cute, but opening the boxes (for the early seasons, anyway), turns out to be kind of a hassle, and the hinging mechanism rips easily. They seem to have loosened it up or something in later seasons, or maybe I just got

I'm a fan of the Northern Exposure DVDs that come in the little snow vests. They look cute and the whole thing is sturdy enough. It can make them a little tricky to organize with other DVDs, I suppose, but they're not a weird size or shape or anything.
