monday night crisis

there used to be heroes on mondays opposite other shows i liked so i have not watched heroes in a couple of seasons, but at the moment the listings for this week do not show the monday night crisis of television that i seem to recall (can we get any more ambivalently dramatic?... whistful must be next, no doubt)... as it stands, there's the closer and rizzoli & ilses which jackson really likes, so that's what we watch cuz even though the lead character in the closer has a personality i would aboid like the plague in real life, i like to share shows and am learning to enjoy the storylines and rizzoli & isles is one i might watch on my own, say in one of the the reruns lists (what?... no sci-fi on mondays?... there was, i swear, and it was why i stopped watching heroes once upon a time... or wait, maybe that was 24... and there is monday night football know and then, cha know... my aged swiss cheese memory is so much fun :)

there is lie to me which i used to watch now and then and i would like to catch in reruns, so there's a bit of crisis for us... stay tuned for the next episode of the monday night crisises, aye? (snarf :)

the end of time

or at least the end of 24, at least until the movie (they did it for X-Files, i doubt they'll miss this chance)... i admit a large part of me was disappoint that jack kept it together and didn't just blow the murdering head of states heads off, all three in fact, or at least the two guys... but i suppose the suicide was more humiliating for the former president... so they made jack human with a conscience and a noble do-anything-for-the-flag true partiot to the end, which works best for a movie follow-up...

chloe needs to man-up for the movie (at least a little, aye?... i mean, challenge the former president's aide a little more for keeping the head of ctu who just shot jack bauer detained while she's supposed to be coordinating protection for the president and world leaders)...

ok, so i look forward to 24 on the big screen, even if i only watched it as background noise about half the season at most over the years... the question will be how do you fit 24 hours into two?... ah yes, cut out all the meaningless soap opera crap and focus on the action...

what's on now? :)

take it to the limit one more time

that's what 24 seems to be gearing up to do... won't be surprised to see waterboarding and all sorts of tortures before the end... they can justify it with some logic like exposing the american people to the reality of what our government does in our name under the guise of protecting us might wake people up to the inhumanity we allow and support and cheer on while simultaneously condemning others for doing the same...

just watch the news with your mind open if you need more proof...

besides, it's fox, so they've got to made the bleeding heart liberals look bad, pathetic, even corrupt... will jack shake them all up by the end of the show?... will the show shake all of us up?... what sort of surprise is in store?...

yawn, pass the chocolate :)
