No Heroics please

I ran across this show. It reminds me of the Tick and the live action show they put out of it a while back. I'm in the middle of a Venture Brothers stint at the moment, so cheesy supervillains and superheroes in an average world are just the thing to make me smirk right now...I'd like to check this show out. Hopefully it'll come over here relatively soon...or at least be on region 1 DVD eventually.

Wish it would come to us over here...I mean we just get the new season of Doctor Who today for gods sake. I'm willing to vote out the conservative party just to get the arts funding restored so we can have better scifi back on the CBC and Space channel...well OK I suppose other artforms could use some cash too, but seriously. We geeks pay our taxes too. What's in it for us? :)

Only 7 more sleeps...

Soon.
This will have to tide me over for now...

Thanks a whole lot BBC

I broke down and watched Doctor Who last night and man - the guy who wrote the other 2 spooky episodes (Unearthly child and the one about Mdm. Depompadeur) has managed to write another truly creepy show. Great - my childhood nightmares have popped up in the most recent episode. The weeping angels - I swear someone has peeked into my brain and knows how to completely creep me out. I mean, statues that move when you aren't looking and are secretly out to get you with their nasty toothy grabby arms? Nightmare city.
Gak.
And me with a husband who, for a time, moved a cardboard cutout around the house to scare the crap out of me occasionally by me seeing shadowy figures watching me from darkened rooms while I'm home "alone".
Yes. Hilarious.

But hey, I don't need to sleep - I can stay awake and not blink for at least a week.
Then I'll start hallucinating and it won't matter anyways...

There must be someway out of here, said the joker to the theif

I only have a minute, but I just had to pop in and say:

Is not Battlestar Galactica the best show on TV right now? The season finale was insane.

I was out at an indian banquet wearing a sari last night (long story, great time...I'll post pics later) and when I got home J was twitching and saying "Gah! You've gotta to watch this!" Having tried not to think about it while I was out, I was dying to know what happenedonce I was home and undistracted. So I stayed up late to watch it...and man - my mind is blown. I'd say more, but maybe you haven't seen it yet...and I'd hate to give anything away.
It's so nice to have a fantastic SF show I enjoy surprise me. I don't watch much TV, but if this show keeps it up...my little brain will combust. :)
