Just a quick shot...

Howdy folks. I was hoping tonight I would be blogging about the fantabulous news that the writers' strike is officially over--but I can't seem to find that particular tidbit anywhere, alas.

On the plus side though, I know the writers were supposed to vote on the deal today, and all of the writers I follow seemed to look favorably on it, so hopefully as of tomorrow those wonderful folks will be back at work. Knock on wood.

Other than that, I've got a few events tonight to be excited about. The new season of Jericho is premiering, which I actually almost completely forgot--shame on me! Luckily my DVR loves me and went ahead and had already set itself to record tonight's show. Sweet.

Also, Scott Bakula is guest starring on tonight's episode of Boston Legal. I love that such a wonderfully silly and campy courtroom show has such a great slew of sci-fi actor power on board. I mean Shatner, that's the obvious one. Then you've got James Spader (the original Daniel Jackson in the Stargate movie), Odo from DS9 was until this season a regular. They've had all kinds of happy sci-fi related guest stars. It's good stuff. Plus you've got Candice Bergen and John Laroquette. How can you lose, really?

Anyhoo, I am a weirdo who tends to shy clear of actual live television, so I probably won't watch either show tonight, but I look forward to curling up with them tomorrow. Tonight I'll probably watch my newly acquired sappy Anne Hathaway romance, Becoming Jane. I love Amazon.

Anyhoo, that's all I've got.

Hope all is well with all of you.

Laters,

P.S. Oh, and speaking of how awesome Amazon is--if there are any Ginger Rogers fans out there...The Major and the Minor is now available for pre-order on said wonderful site. The DVD is set to come out in April. Huzzah! I have been waiting for this one for ages. It's a beautiful and amusing classic.
