Sleep is of the good. cough medicine pills that allow for sleep are too:) Sadly they don't stop the cold. Dunno if it's good or bad that my entire chest rattles instead of part of it. Needless to say that it didn't take much to convince me to stay home since it is supposed to thunderstorm today as well. *hack cough*

Heee..

Went to the actual House website (stay away if you don't want spoilers---they have them on the home page) to determine when the next new house was (still dunno), but decided to watch some videos. They had an interview w/ Hugh Laurie and it made me realize that I don't think I've ever seen him in that much stuff before (Please don't hurt me!). It was really odd to listen to him talk w/ an english accent and sound NOTHING like house. That's all...keep walking.

ETA...Oh! New episode next week...and it looks good!!! Hee.

Figures

You know what, watching shows on Fox teaches you a lot about show business. As in, never ever ever trust someone else to market your product. To do so is so risky. I mean look at the dozens of shows that have been killed by the Fox marketing department.

And of course, tonite I had to be introduced to yet one more casualty. Yes, after months of hearing fans bemoan it's loss, critics say how much it had improved, etc, I made the mistake of actually watching Tru Calling....and promptly fell in love. I already knew it was dead. I know they are only showing what had already been filmed. This show has no chance except for a dvd release and another mark on the wall of "shows killed by bad marketing".

To be true, I never gave the show a chance. I believed the hype that the TV ads for it show --- a blatant and uninspired rip-off of Early Edition and its better predecesor Quantum Leap. 'Nuff said. Now granted, everything I have to squee about is based on one show..so maybe the first season did suck incredibly badly, I don't know (if it did, tell me so I'm not tempted to spend any money on the dvds, k thanks). But from what I've seen tonite, the show has some writers with talent, directors who aren't completely inept, and the actors are good --- Point Pleasant only had one of those things and we saw how miserably that turned out despite our clinging to the hope that the Jossverse would be extended after the demise of Mutant Enemy.

Anyway..anything else I say has to go behind a cut tag because I don't know how much of what I gathered from tonite's show is spoilers or is plot previously tread upon:
( wow, finesse!! )

Now then, I dunno if that show was representative of the entire past of the show, but if that had been the pilot, I'd have been hooked. *shrugs* Oh well, live and learn. At least I can be happy that it's on fox so i have the hope of seeing dvds some day. Oh and one last note on the marketing department --- smack them down when they put too many gorram spoilers in the next week preview!! Tzao Gao!!!! now I dont even need to watch it --- hell, I could probably write the entire gorram thing from what they showed in the preview. *stupid fox marketing execs*

And my icon is by the illustrious bdgeministar. You'll be seeing a lot of it around till we get a peep out of neroli66. At least we figure she's surely scanning her flist while bored at work (and boy is she in for some fun when she does:)

Hey tori_deathangel, was this what you had in mind?

Because if I say it enough, maybe it will be true

My cold medicine is not the cause of the severe stomach cramps I just had. It isn't. Especially when my ears and nose have decided to join the party that has been my chest pain.

Do you hear me stomach?? You'll take this cold medicine and like it!! Please!
