Busy Day Today :)
Well, it's another wonderful weekend and I'm so glad the holidays are coming. Yesterday was marvelous for two reasons: my good friend clementine_lime posted a great news article on Martha and Charles that I will share next Thursday and so many great things are coming in about Season Six of 24. I can't believe I doubted for a minute that this season would not be as good as last season. It appears that they're diving into White House politics more than ever now that West Wing is gone. Woot woot!! If they can balance that with the action, I will be a happy camper. That and the fact that maybe just maybe Bill and Karen have gotten married *crosses fingers*
Ok now for the TV roundup. Finally saw The Nine and it was a pretty decent episode. Though the characters seem to think Eva is in the clear I'm still suspicious. Call it my 24 paranoia but alot of things could be explained that she was covering something up and now her sister is covering for her with that sappy line about her sister wanting to make it with Nick. Come on! $300 wasted because something MIGHT happen. I'm just not buying it. At any rate, Kathryn and Nick have real chemistry together (better than Kiefer and Audrey in my opinion) so I hope the show does well and Kim Raver will move on with the Nine and we'll find Jack a new love interest.
Also taped Smallville and Grey's Anatomy. On the former, Lana with Lex is REALLY interesting as she goes to the darkside and Chloe is just taking Lois Lane's place until Clark finally gets together with Lois. I'm not a big one for medical dramas and the McDreamy thing gives me a headache BUT the African American actors are REALLY good and funny. I also like McDreamy's ex-wife. She has an amazing voice. Izzie is smart, pretty, and sarcastic (killer combination). However, my favorite character is Miranda because she's nobody's fool and makes me laugh every time since she won't take crap from anyone. What a character!
Vanished is now on Fridays at 8 PM so I taped that too. It's really a low budget 24 without the great cast and the sharp writing BUT it still has a mystery that leaves me intrigued so I keep tuning in. Right now I'm loving Grandpa Collins who saw right through both his granddaughter and former daughter-in-law. Don't try any mind games with him because he'll see right through. Let's hope they bring him back for some more episodes. Still suspicious that Sarah is in on this whole scam because they've never physically harmed her yet and her past is so shady. The new guy running the investigation is SO much better than the last guy (though I feel bad since he was shot). His chipper personality contrasts nicely with the dour, pessimistic viewpoint of the Asian lady detective. Can't wait to see more :)
And finally Numbers!! Where Peter MacNicol first appeared before 24 (well he was on Ally McBeal too but I never watched that :P) He is SO cute with the FBI agent named Megan. Such a cute, odd couple. And next week Don's Dad gets a new love interest who was in both Sister Acts. She will be perfect for him. I can't wait to see the verbal sparring match. I love TV :)

And now time for some lovely graphics I found on the 24 Community Board. The first signature was on display by username Virginie and I really like the coloring and how she merged all the images of Season Five into the sharp but slim siggy. The last one is by The24UmKing and he always does great work. I showed some of the siggies he made for me earlier. This one he put together from the promo images and though he thought it didn't come out that great, I disagree. There is my new favorite couple: Bill and Karen :)
And now I leave you with a classic Martha screenshot. I love it when she's in First Lady mode. The 24 Calendar I have shows how she really knows how to carry herself. Now with Karen's new hairstyle I might be switching allegiances :)
Tell me, Anya...do you ever tire of just playing a role instead of really making a difference?
no subject
And wasn't that article just squee worthy!?! - damn, I love google search and how it enables my fangirling.
Yeah, same here.
Oh I about died with that article. Thanks so much!!!! Greg and Jean in a play or romantic comedy would make me just about the happiest person on earth!!
