Spamming out of boredom...

[shadowkat]

Gilmore Girls is boring me, am sorely tempted to flip over to The Standoff or Friday Night Lights, which may also bore me.  Okay after an interminable discussion about Creme Brulee, flipped to Friday Night Lights, which is less boring. They are having a huge testrone fight. Haven't been able to get into it because it's about high-school and a high school football coach, and I just don't care. Sports dramas, sigh. Seen too many. After a while you can predict what will happen in the formula before it does. For any Sports Drama versions out there, who have fallen in love with the form - highly recommend the following: "North Dallas Forty", "Hoosiers", "Everybody's All American", "Any Given Sunday", "All The Right Moves", "Brian's Song", "White Shadow" - about a high school basketball coach in the inner city - tv series. There was also a really good comedy starring Burt Reynolds as a coach, and one entitled "Coach". 

That said, the dialogue in this show, from what I'm seeing right now, really makes Gilmore Girls feel like it was written by amateur writers in comparison. Sorry Rebecca Rand Kirshner - I'm abandoning GG in favor of the better written FNL I think. If House was on, I'd be watching it, but no they had to move it back to 9 opposite VM. Which means I have to choose between the two.

So far according to the news - two things: 1) Connecticut has a Republican governor - doesn't bug me too much, she's a good one. By the same token, won't be too upset if Senator Lindsey, a Republican in South Carolina stays in office - he's also a good egg. Am closely watching the Missouri Clair McCaskill race (you know about this one - it's the one Michael J Fox did ads for and Rush Lumbagh made an ass of himself regarding, Rush is loved in Kansas City - or at least he was when I lived out there and went to law school, people keep thinking I'm from NYC, I'm not folks. I've lived in NYC the shortest amount of time. Lived in midwest for 17 years, my accent is midwestern.) Also the New Jersey one with Menedez and the one with Ned Lamont, looks like Lieberman will win - probably won't matter, running as Independent.]  2. Weather is not going to cooperate with me tomorrow - have two interviews in two separate buildings that require lengthy treks from subway stations in nice shoes and they are predicting 12 hours of downpours and a deluge. Damn. Damn. Damn.

Okay now to flip to Veronica Mars, am on the fence regarding this show. Should I flip to House? Don't know. Will stick with VM I think. Can always catch House in reruns.
