Seeker: Up; Betty: Down?

Legend of the Seeker
Legend of the Seeker has been renewed for a second season! Although the typical fanboys seem to hate it (see: AICN talkbacks), I’m thrilled. I’m also thrilled that is vidding it as we speak. I enjoy this show, but not in a “Must See Now!” way, but once I get ready to watch each week, I’m never disappointed. Really, in this day and age, there are very few shows that can’t be considered “rip offs” of other shows, so why focus on that? I catch it via DVR through the WGN Network, but it’s also available on Hulu.

In much worse news, Ugly Betty as been backburnered. ABC wants to start a Thursday Night comedy block and Betty has been relegated to post-sweep status. Uh oh. This is potentially very bad news for us fans. However, with the status of PD and UB, I may just be able to let ABC go from my viewing in its entirety. Pfft.

All I Forgot

Oh, snap! I totally forgot the island disappeared. I forgot Sawyer jumped off of the helicopter. I forgot there was a helicopter. I forgot Jin may have blown up. I forgot that Hurly was so loveable. I forgot that I used to love this show.

What I didn’t forget was that I don’t like it anymore. My current plan is to give it a shot, forward through any scenes with Faraday (DAMMIT. First scene in and there’s his dumbass face. :cussing: ) It’s not hard to hate this show. I had a whole list of things I forgot, but I can’t be bothered with it now.

[Edit: 9:45pm OK, Heroes is more believable than this. True.]

Tell Me Why

Please explain to me why my DVR was set to record Ugly Betty just as it always does, the guide showed Ugly Betty (with a full description of the episode), and what ABC showed was Scrubs (which I hated the first time around when it was on NBC). Boo. Hiss.

I am so disappointed. I am also so disappointed in Demons. I really wanted to like it. I thought when I saw Ella from Hex that maybe something cool would happen this week. WRONG. I’m not going to be burning this show unless I get a request now-ish. I’d rather have the space on my hard drive. Boo. Again.

Cage’s birthday party was earlier today, and for there to have been over 20 people there, it felt smallish and nice. He’s 9 years old now, and his sister, Scotti, is 9 months old. Pretty cool. He’s so awesome, and even though he was feeling under the weather, he played his part well. Happy Birthday, Cage! :cake:

Coraline
I will be seeing this movie. I rarely promise that I will see a movie, and rarely do I actually see a movie (in a theater). I would love to see Coraline with someone, but I will go alone if need be. You have plenty of time to clear your calendar, and I’m not demanding that we see it on opening day, so have your people get with my people on the date.

I’m willing to schedule more than one viewing, so don’t feel too pressured.
