great new show

Can't say I was eagerly anticipating the new show "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" but I was keeping an eye out for the start date. Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan of the series. I was actually pleasantly surprised by T3 (I really went in with low expectations).

The first episode got me hooked. 2nd episode last night just wishes they could show the 3rd episode tonight. Casting is good. Don't know the actor playing John but he seems to 'fit'. I'm a big Firefly/Summer Glau fan and her 'unknown full capability' Terminator model should give her some range in the role. Headley as Sarah comes off strong and capable.

Reading some comments at other places, 'purists' seem to have issues where the show has deviated from supposed canon, but heck... time travel is involved. Things can change.

Oh if you are wondering my latest (and final in one case) thoughts on my eagerly anticipated shows from last fall, that post will be coming.

mild


Getting reports from the news as well as friends in LA about the heavy rain. Hopefully there will be minimal damage. New York City is going to be experiencing a bit of mild weather for the upcoming week. Should be nice.

Brrrrrrrrr


Nice frigid way to start of the year. I don't question that the weather makes it very difficult for many.... but I will still take this over a hot and humid summer.

Law and Order

Law and Order continues to be one of my favorite shows. I love watching repeats on TNT. I start recognizing supporting actors playing different roles in different episodes. The new season starts tonight. I wonder how many episodes were recorded before the start of the writers strike?
