C'mon C'mon

Don't forget, the season premiere of "Rescue Me" is tonight at 10pm on F/X.

And if you need another reminder, you can get that in this SFist post!

Hey, Where Did My Three-Day-Weekend Go?

Sunset 2
Originally uploaded by Rain Rain Rain.

At about 7:30pm last night, I was sitting at home, watching yet another episode of "The Dog Whisperer," (key take-away from that show: If you have a dog--WALK IT!) and feeling kind of sad about the weekend coming to a close, and my not even steeping into any real nature the whole time. Sunset was approaching, and I got the sudden urge to go to the beach and watch it. So, through the wonder of Zipcar, I reserved a Mini convertible for two hours and by 7:45 I was on my way to the beach. Woo!

Of course, since this was a spontaneous decision, I didn't really plan on it being FRACKING FREEZING. No gloves, no hat. Just a thin hoodie and some yoga pants. Whoops! But after a brisk 15 minute walk down the beach, I hardly noticed it. And while in the car, the heated seats in the convertible allowed for some comfortable top down driving. In all, a nice ending to what was a kind of depressing weekend.

I'm So Happy I Could Cry

One of my favorite movies is finally coming to DVD! "Petulia" comes out on June 20th.

No extras that I can see, which is sad, but I'm still pretty happy about it.

Lights and Dolls and Birds and Boats and and and

I went to Disneyland recently, and have the video to prove it!

Speaking of Lost

Heather Havrilesky has an awesome assessment of the season finale over on Salon. (But DO NOT read it if you haven't seen the finale yet.)

And for a completely opposite take on "Lost" check out Michelle Heller's take on TV Guide. Heller is a former coworker of mine, who has apparently landed my dream job, writing for "TV Guide, " (and I am NOT ONE BIT JEALOUS!), but I could not disagree with her more on the matter of "Lost."

Clear as Mud

I was hoping this diagram of how the characters on "Lost" are connected would clear some things up for me, but then I realized I was never very good at reading charts. Doh!

Yikes!

She looks so happy about it!

Maybe Now She Can Buy a Cah

There hasn't been much to talk about on "Starting Over" recently. Not a lot of crazy, which has been disappointing. However, the life coaches continue to act crazy themselves, as can be illustrated with their decision to graduate Antonia after what seemed to be about a week in the house. Her goal was to get out of debt. She got into debt (over $40,000.00 worth) because she's selfish, immature, and unwilling to deal with any of the issues that would explain her need to constantly buy above her means.

She's graduating because she called some of her creditors.

She's still selfish, immature, and dealing with some tremendous daddy issues. To top it off, her parting gifts were a bunch of money and some free furniture. Her issue was spending more than she had. GIVING stuff to her, without forcing her to earn it, seems a truly boneheaded move.

It seems "SO" is reaching the end of the season, which is the point where they quickly graduate all of the women in the house because they've got to get ready for summer break. Doesn't matter if they deserve to graduate or not, though.

But who cares. Antonia got a graduation make-over, had her eyebrows done, which is the true right of passage for any "Starting Over" crazy.

Monday, Monday

Another week already?

So, I was going to write an explanation for my absence, but I kind of already did that somewhere else. So, if you're wondering what's been up, I suggest you read about it here. I can't really bring myself to write much more about it right now...

More Finales!

I've got another SFist post up. Once again, it is all about finales.
