The Doctor Who marathon continues this morning (because I’m working late today…) 8:30 AM PST The Gunfighters (movie version.) The much maligned western adventure isn’t as bad as many would claim. I didn’t even find the ballad annoying. Even the accents didn’t make me cringe (like so many other programs.)Continue Reading
Day two of my personal Doctor Who marathon began at 9:05 AM PST with Planet of Giants (movie version.) [BTW it’s now 9:15 PST, the crew has just figured out that they have been made small, and it’s the actual anniversary now – 5:15 PM GMT 11/23/1963…] A great littleContinue Reading

“Mommies and daddies always come back.” is a wonderful quote to comfort young children when their parents go out and leave them at home. In this instance, it’s a sad statement. I have been described as ten pounds of sap in a five pound sack, so this first episode ofContinue Reading
The US version of the series Coupling has finally started to move onto it’s own path tonight. The first two episodes were very much a word for word (occasionally tweaked and/or deleted) remake of the original British series. For viewers who have watched the original series, this was painful toContinue Reading
Tuesday brought forth a new episode of Good Morning Miami with a new office dynamic – Jake got Dylan (yea!) and Gavin and Penny got together. It’s a cute little comedy, which used to be between Will & Grace and ER. If I continue to watch the Tuesday line-up, I’llContinue Reading
Well, the season premiere of NBC’s new Must See TV lineup… Friends was Friends – lets just hope everyone stays together, though Rachel and Joey probably wont considering he’ll have his own show next year… Will & Grace was Will & Grace.
