Almost a full year of not posting down the drain after several weeks with no new tv shows. I could, like, read a book or something, but instead I am suffering through an exceedingly dumb episode of South Park and trying to get my blog on. I’m pretty sure that there was a Dr Who marathon on Sci Fi today, so Tivo probably has plenty of Who goodness for me to watch. But Jay doesn’t get it, and I somehow feel bad making him watch. He’s usually a good sport about it, and I have certainly spent more than my fair share of time watching sports (and South Park), but I still feel bad.
The problem, of course, is that I just discovered the new Who series about a month ago, so I have a full 3 seasons to catch up on. And since the show is on three different channels, at least 5 times a week, there are a lot of opportunities to catch up. And so, I guess, it can seem as if Dr. Who is ALWAYS on, and if you don’t pay attention, a lot of the episodes can seem sort of… the same. (“Didn’t they already kill the Daleks? Why are there more Cybermen?”) He also thinks the aliens look silly, which, hello? That’s kind of part of the point.
In more tv-related news, I watched American Gladiators last night, and it wasn’t really as good as I was hoping. The new Eliminator, besides reminding me of Kenny Blankenship on MXC, is a total rip-off of the Ninja Challenge show. And…
Ohmygod I watch too much tv.
