House and Heroes: WTH? »

Is it just me or did they both suck this week? Yeesh. House: BLAH BLAHBLAH. NO medical mystery, just some whiny “I don’t know” girl who made no sense whatsoever trying to make House “HUMAN” blahblahblah. Only good part was House and Wilson: “Are we roleplaying? Am I you? Cuz I don’t want to be [...]

LOST “The Final Episode” at Iger Keynote at CES »

The only thing that could complete against Steve Job’s MacWorld keynote address are some scenes from the final episode of Lost, which were shown at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. And that’s the end of that mystery… …or is it?

Lost Thoughts: Jacob and Ben »

Was thinking I’d do some research on who Jacob and Ben were in the Bible, since they are the most famous Jacob and Ben. Beside Jake and the Fat Man and Ben Dover, of course. On Lost, all we know of Jacob so far is that he made a list of losties, Jack was not [...]

Books. I’ve Read a Few. »

I don’t have time to review them yet, but here’s what I’ve read since last time I posted: Tempting Faith: An Inside Story of Political Seduction by David Kuo A Spot of Bother by Mark Haddon Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire Dispatches from the Edge: [...]

Thursday Night Lineup Rundown, Jan. 18, 2007 »

My Name Is Earl: The guy Joy accidentally kidnapped (Josh) dies in a tragic Murphy bed accident, and Earl tries to throw him a funeral, but turns out no one actually KNEW Josh. Then, when Earl and Joy are cleaning out Josh’s apartment, people from all over the world (and just next door) start IM’ing [...]

Thursday Night Lineup Rundown, Jan. 11, 2007 »

My Name Is Earl: Earl decides to do #52 on his list: Dig up and return the buried treasure. Several years ago, Earl, Randy, and Joy stole some Civil War silverware from the library/museum. It was too hot to sell right away, so they buried it. From this backstory, we learn each character’s underhanded participation [...]

Bongo Goes Manga »

Over at deviantART, artist space coyote has posted a couple of great pics related to her new job: Long story short: Bongo Comics, Matt Groening’s comic book company, is hiring me to do the pencils for a short manga-style Simpsons comic. I would embed the images, but this template goes crazy for some reason. If [...]

Lost Loose Ends, Pt. 1 »

Seems like this season, Lost-Hate is quite popular. People constantly complaining about the loose ends and breaks, among other things. I personally think Lost is still on track to being one of the greatest shows ever made. The first season is definitely the best, but when you’re PERFECT the first time, how can you ever [...]

House, Ep. 3.11: Words and Deeds »

Whew, Tritter’s gone. For now. I thought it would feel more painful, awkward to watch House be apologetic and regretful. But Hugh Laurie, as always, made it work. Wilson deserved the apology, truly, and yet I was feeling for House. Wilson was losing everything in his life and House acted like it was nothing, yet [...]

Thursday Night Lineup Rundown »

Bet you readers-in-my-head never thought I was coming back. HA. Why don’t I write more about the Thursday night lineup? Last week I started taking notes again and intended to post, but never got around to it. I really don’t have time to now either, and this would pay off if anybody would respond to [...]
