He felt a disturbance in the Force. He just wants to make sure if you do write your memoir that he’s in your good graces. 😉

Whoa, talk about spooky. One of those former roommates just contacted me out of the blue this morning!

I stayed with LOST to the end, also, and honestly, loved the whole series (though there was a season that kind of got off track in there somewhere.) I’ve also watched every episode of THE EVENT. It was never as good as I wanted it to be, but I will have to say that after it finally came back on air late winter, it was better…not perfect or even great, but good. Perhaps I shouldn’t admit that. FLASH FORWARD I had huge hopes for, but after 2 or 3 episodes I gave up. It felt like a soap opera complete with crappy dialogue and overacting. And the logistics of the story drove me nuts…no consideration for the real time it takes to fly from LA to say Utah or Europe and what that would mean for equivalent time back in LA. Viewers are smart, don’t treat them like they’re not. FLASH FORWARD felt like a show with the seed of a great idea, but with no idea where it was going. Maybe the writers and producers did know, but that didn’t come across at all. Hell, what it felt like was a first draft of a novel-full of problems and inconsistencies, and characters not fully fleshed out. Sorry, FLASH FORWARD annoys the hell out of me. I LOVED the idea, and to see it wasted like it was seems like such a lost opportunity.

I thought I was stubborn, too, but I finally had to cry uncle either after Lost's fourth season or beginning of the fifth. I also gave up on The Event and FlashForward. You're one tough cookie, Shell.

I persevered with LOST to the end {partly due to my stubborn streak!} and though the flight over water to an island in that trailer gave me some deja vu, I won't be able to stop myself watching Alcatraz. The first few episodes, at least. I'm curious. I'll also be keen to check out Person of Interest, Awake, Smash and Prime Suspect. That should more than keep my DVR full! Thanks for the insights, PCN.

Urgh, I hate that the sites won’t let you see the clips! Hopefully, they’ll show up on YouTube soon.

You won’t tune in automatically for CHARLIE’S ANGELS just for the, you know, angels?

Haha! You must have read my post really carefully to pick out that line! Hmmm. It could be an interesting chapter, but I’d have to get my former roommies’ permission to tell my, ah, stories. And if TMZ lackeys even try ambushing Mr. PCN, they’ll get a black eye or two for their efforts!
