You haven't seen my drawer of inappropriate starches?

Dollhouse, Week 7

It's made of brown. This was...kinda exciting! Still don't care about Caroline or Ballard as characters, but the tension of containing the contagion (wordplay!) was quite effective. And a new Doll! So many questions answered! (Boyd should always be business casual.) So many raised! (EvilReedDiamond not so evil?) The most pressing being: what happened to Topher's pants?

High five!

Next week's the Doll's Awaken-rebellion-thing looks fantastic...but where can they go after that?


In other TeeVee...

BSG finale
I'm not sure I can create a coherent and cohesive response to this ending. I was not disappointed, but I was rather surprised that there was a happy ending. (Almost) Everyone lived and were able to start anew. Though I was hoping that Starbuck, Apollo, and the Fighting Agathons (Helo survived?!) found Lake Wobegon - where all the women are strong (Kara, Athena), the men are good looking (Lee, Karl) and the children are above average (wee troublemaker Hera)....

Random thoughts...
Saul Fucking Tigh. Drunk. At a strip club. With his wives. (And of course, they declare their eternal love for each other at said strip club while downing shots and watching lapdances. Their trashiness is so endearing.)

Doc Cottle humbled into speechlessness.

"The night's young and so are you." DRINK!

Well, I suppose vomiting in the gutter is better than breaking down in the bathroom again, Bill.

"...then I want you to start throwing rocks."

Wanton Centurion-on-Centurion violence!

ADMIRAL HOSHI. PRESIDENT ROMO. This is a nation I can believe in.

Baltar so pathetic with his Rubbermaid File Tote of Destiny...

So, what they're saying is, it's all Callie's fault... And Tori's.... I can get behind that.

Galen's the first Viking/Scotsman/Icelander? So the kilts were his idea? Noted! (But I want pictures.)

So Asimo and the pervy AsianSexBot are the harbingers of the endtimes? Thanks for head's up, Ron.

30 Rock
Muppets. Dennis. Hornberger. Now that they've ditched the guest stars (who weren't all bad) the show has finally gotten back to the interplay of the writers room and Jenna and Tracy and the complete madness that makes it great. Plz keep it this way, thnx

OMIGOD HE'S MORTAL.

The Office
Oh no. I love it when Pam walks on hot coals.

"I'm aware of the effect I have on women."

  1. YEAH for Dollhouse!!! Tnank you, writers and actors. How muchdo I love the actors playing Topher and Adelle? How much? Pretty fucking much.

    And, in respect to the overwhelmingly negative response of fans around the world, a smaller yeah for BSG finale.

    Haven't watched 30 Rock yet this week. Or Supernatural, but I like the first ten minutes I saw. I mean, The Kinks' "Well Respected Man" soundtrack? Hell yeah!!
