TV musings

I hear Women's Murder Club will be back, for at least the last three eps of the season, sometime in April. So we hopefully will get to see the rest of Joe Flanagan's stint as a Fibbie. (If he can work it into his SGA filming schedule.) And, hey! Maybe between now and April, Angie Harmon will eat something and gain an ounce or two. I also hear Nicholas Brendon will be back in a few more eps of Criminal Minds. This makes me happy. :)

The final few eps of Jericho are still making me happy. This week's ep had great pacing, I was really on the edge of my seat!

Ashes to Ashes is much better than I expected. I love Keeley Hawes as DI Alex Drake, she's a great character, and she's got real chemistry with Philip Glenister/Gene Hunt. (Is it odd that I occasionally find myself nostalgic over her wardrobe? I mean, the 80's...) ;D

Primeval is over for the season which makes me sad. I would be upset with certain developments in the last episode, but I have a feeling that as is often the case in SciFi shows, the condition is not permanent.

Speaking of SciFi shows and possibly temporary conditions... I have a spoilery question about Torchwood 2x08 - A Day in the Death: If Owen couldn't resuscitate the old artifact collector because he's dead and can't breathe, how is it he can talk, since talking requires... oh... breathing?

Project Runway: I am bummed that Chris was the ringer, but it wasn't entirely unexpected. I do like Rami's stuff, I just liked Chris' better. I've seen all the collections in various spots around teh intarweb, and really, I don't feel particularly strongly about any of them and have no idea who's going to win.

Oh, and I recently watched a little something called Being Human that I hear is possibly a BBC pilot, and I thought it was excellent. I'd love to see more of it, if it gets picked up.

I'm really enjoying Ashes to Ashes! Though I tend to lose the plot every time they start playing a Duran Duran song because I start dancing and singing at the top of my lungs. Great show, though. You're right about the chemistry, too. And the wardrobe--the first day I watched it, you should've seen what I went out wearing that night. I declared it 1981. *bg*

I liked Being Human, too. Hope it gets more episodes!

And I asked the same thing about Owen/breath/talking. I'm going to go with the assumption that whatever unnatural thing is keeping him alive has done some weird ass shit to his physiology. I mean...he is dead. And yet he's walking around and, y'know, kinda living.

LOL! I've thought of you a few times when watching A2A. I bet you'd look great in leg-warmers. ;D

As for Owen, I guess that's what I'll have to do, too. Though seriously, when he was cleaning out his medicine cabinet I wanted to say 'Hold on there, your co-workers might appreciate it if you keep your toothbrush..." ;D

*laugh* Yeah, I had similar thoughts when he was throwing all that stuff out. But isn't most of that caused by decay and food (and decaying food?). He's not decaying. If he doesn't sweat, he doesn't produce saliva, and he can't eat...well, he's going to get dirty and need a washing, but is he going to need to brush his teeth?

Hm...something to ponder...
