whiny ass update

So accomplished today...laundry. transferred files from key zip to computer. Wrote barely two paragraphs as a rough abstract for the completely new unrelated part of my thesis....and watched alot of farscape commentaries w/ claudia black and ben browder.

Which can I just say that I'm still very disappointed at the misprint on the starburst edition 1?? It says that ben and claudia do a commentary for PK tech girl but it's no where to be found:(:( Which makes sense since that would have been 3 commentaries on one side, and all the other discs do 2 commentaries per side. Still...that's the one I really wanted to see their commentary for.

:( And still no other box sets for farscape. A little worried that i didn't get a heads up that season 2 was shipping out since I got that for the season 3 set. Ahh well...still going to try to wait till I can get the third edition of season 1.

And how upset will i be if they proceed to release starburst editions of the other seasons in fast order now?? LOL. Although I did notice in the commentary for DNA Mad Scientist that these were most likely done post release of the first season box set since Ben makes a reference to The Swan from Fox. Cause that's only what, 2 yrs old? God. Horrible that that travesty is still aired while Firefly, Angel, and Farscape are no longer on the air.

When does the Inside start? I need smart TV again.

ETA..although I'm bored, I'm not bored enough to want to read science articles. Arrrggghhh.

Are you watching House? Smart TV...oh, wait, it's on Fox too, so it might not be around too long, but...smart!

House, yeah I enjoy it but didn't watch obsessively this season cause the acting/directing was just too good--expected it to be cancelled. Then I always forget that it is on opposite Veronica Mars .. which is sad since I typically find House more satisfying. VM is just a tad too teeny bopper sweet most times I think. Feels a bit like buffy on sweets

They've ordered a full 22 episodes, but...it's never set in stone, is it? I put all my faith in the fact that now every cancelled show seems to get a DVD release, anyway.

[jebbypal]

Well, encouraging now that they've ordered more:) Like I said, I keep forgetting. So don't forget to put a reminder on lj for me on tuesday (assuming I get home in time for it)

Will definitely do that this week...it's a withdrawal episode, which is one of my personal TV/movie kinks (okay, "kink" might not be the word but...something I just irrationally love) and I canNOT wait to see what Hugh Laurie does with it. Plus, there's a preview clip at the FOX website, and Robert Sean Leonard kicks ass in it.
/end fangirling.

Ohh preview:):) Thanks for the pimp. Going there now:)

Okay, watched the preview. Like how it ends. Have a question for you---have we ever found out what happened to House's leg? I mean, I've only caught like 4 episodes and know I missed the premiere way back when, but I'm just a tad curious if I'm missing a whole lot of backstory on his character or not. Will have to remember to keep an eye out for the repeats this summer.

And wow, yes, addiction story lines are bus wreck fascinating to me as well.

Of course a large part of that is cause I have to spend a large amount of time convincing a close group of friends that addiction really exists since I seem to have aquired a few too many people whose families are total norms in that they can quit addictive substances cold turkey w/ no problem. Which if someone would just figure out how the hell to bottle that trait...

He had an infarction in his leg that the doctors didn't treat properly, and experienced quite a bit of muscle death, as I recall. Presumably this was within the last few years, judging by Wilson's dialogue in the clip.

::bounces off to watch clip just one more time::
