OK....Is it a Monster From the Id?
The second episode of "Lost" was on last night, and it rocked. This article provides some plot points you may have missed. And the show's producer insists that monster ain't a dinosaur.
Maybe it's that French woman they heard on the radio, and she's REALLY pissed.

Is It April 1st?
Because I'm having a hard time believing this one.
CSI toys are supposedly hitting the store shelves this Friday. The first one due? Why, the CSI: Forensic Facial Reconstructive Kit, of course.
I'll believe it when I see it. And then I'll buy the entire shelf-full and not have to worry about my Christmas shopping for the rest of the year.

Get Lost
The second episode of Lost is on tonight at 8pm. Woo! Look out for the monster! If you missed the first episode, don't despair. ABC will re-air the first AND second episodes this Saturday at 8pm. Set your TiVo. Write yourself a post-it note. Program that VCR. Do it....why aren't you doing it? DO IT NOW!
Also, because of tomorrow's debate, The Apprentice is going to be on this evening at 9pm. I wonder what further labor laws The Donald will break with tonight's firing?

Old News. Literally.
Well, this is old news to most people, but I did promise to send this photo around, so I'm just going take a short cut and post it here. Enjoy.
Here's the story behind it. Although, it might be more fun to come up with a story of your own...

It's OVER!
Well, as far as I can tell on my end, the comments don't look any different. Which is actually fine, as when it was working for a brief five minutes, it appeared as if it wasn't able to save all the old comments. And we want those to be accesible for future generations, so FORGET it. You'll all have to continue not leaving comments the old fashioned way!
It's NEW!
I've switched to Haloscan for my comments thingamabob, and I hope it works. If it does, you'll be able to post comments anoymously, or with your own Web site as the associated URL. And the comments will appear in a pop-up, which is always exciting. Unless you have a pop-up blocker, in which case I suggest you turn that puppy off for this page.
Leave a comment and see if it works. If it doesn't, we'll just go back to normal and we can all pretend this little incident never happened.

Is Anyone Gonna Give a Crap in Five Years?
Blah Blah, Leno is leaving. Yadda yadda, Conan is moving in. *Yawn* Whatever. Leno has been dead to me for years. (Does anyone else remember when he used to be one of the funniest stand-ups out there, way back in the 80s? Didn't think so.) And while I love Conan, I can only hope that he'll still be funny in FIVE YEARS! Leno sure didn't get funnier with age.
But then again, I still laugh every night watching Letterman, so it's not impossible.
In other late night news, Craig Kilborn is officially gone, (praises be) and the guest hosts have taken over. But so far, Amy Sedaris is not amongst them. Come on people! SHE'S GOT SOMETHING TO SAY!

Shoot Me Now
What could be worse than being in a roomfull of ex-"Apprentice" contestants? How about being stuck on a boat with them!
I hope Stacie J. is on board, telling fortunes with her Magic 8 Ball.

A Plane Crashes on an Island Full of Models...and TWO Bachelors!
Thanks to the miracle of TiVo, I was able to watch four--FOUR!--season premieres last night, all before the strike of midnight. I love TiVo. (When will Gavin Newsom start the fight to legalize marriage between an individual and his or her TiVo? 'Cause I'd totally do it!)
Here's what I thought about the shows:
Lost. LOVED it! I thought it was awesome, and one of the best TV pilots I've ever seen. You've got the whole deserted island thing, action galore in the form of flashbacks to the plane crash that got them there, as well as a huge cast of characters, some of whom are already acting kind of strange. And--AND--there's a giant monster on the island killing people! Sure, the monster sounds a little too much like a cast-off from Jurassic Park, but so what. It's a MONSTER! There aren't enough monsters on primetime TV these days. (Aside from the one living on top of Donald Trump's head.) I'm excited about what's to come. Aliens? Or maybe they'll walk to the other side of the island only to discover--Damn you!
America's Next Top Model 3. The premiere was a little anti-climactic since they announced this season's cast of wannabee models weeks ago. But aside from that, there was a crazy bar fight, a legally blind contestant, a plus-sized model, and Tyra made the mean girl cry! I think the show's still got it, so I'll just have to catch it during its reruns on Friday nights.
The Bachelor. OK. I think I'm officially through with this show. I don't care that the bachelorettes this time around are older. (Meaning they're in their thirties. Gee. Can women in their thirties even get around without canes and walkers? How are they going to be able to date?) Or that they got to choose this season's bachelor (they were both boring and ugly.) I'm so incredibly over it all. I don't care. Take it off my TV screen. NOW!
CSI: NY. I'll admit to a genuine fondness for CSI. I think it's great TV. However, I have no tolerance for CSI: Miami, mainly because I think David Caruso is the most annoying actor on TV. He cannot deliver a single line without it coming across as smug. All I want to do is smack him every time he's on screen. So, that show's out. I'll admit that my tuning into "NY" had a lot to do with my fondness for Gary Sinise, a great actor who, for some reason, I find very attractive. Except last night I noticed something very disturbing about him: He has a very small head. I'm hoping this won't distract from future enjoyment of the show, but I'm a little worried. As for his approach to the now familiar role, he seems to be taking the tortured route. So: David Caruso is smug. And William Petersen is jovial. I think one should choose their "CSI" show based on how they like their grisly crimes served up: smug, tortured, or goofy.
Or with a tiny head.
Speaking of tiny heads....Sorry, I've got no segue here, but tonight's the season premiere of ER. Does anyone watch that anymore? That's another one I may have to give up. Once they started dropping helicopters on people's (tiny?) heads, I kind of lost interest.
Maybe they should set a monster loose in the hospital!
