instant eh...

ok, so i took the day off and am relaxing and wrote most of the morning and decided it was time for lunch and since there was nothing on tv and tv keeps me company when i am eating alone, i decided to check out the in demand stuff and found once upon a time, a new show i wanted to see and so, on it went...

that was about five minutes ago...

and here i am already, the first scene turned me off enough to come here and put the tv where it usually resides, in the background... alas, leave it to tv writers to start out programmed and predictable and standard and unfortunately, formula...

. . .

scene two appeals a but more because i love the main character's face (a favorite from house... i never watched how i met your mother cuz i am not much into formula sit-coms and i didn't know she was associate producer on glee which surprised me) and while i don't like the over-done naivety of the teacher (i never watched the stuff she's been in, ed or big love, so she is brand new to me), i love her face too, so there may be some hope as faces are a primary attraction for me to continue watching something and there is the appropriately named mr. gold (rumplestilskin) who played a good love-hate character on star trek:universe and has been in a bunch of films, but they need much better writers to really become what i would have hoped this sort of idea could become and it is a wonderful idea...

it'll take more suspension of reality than it should (because of the poor writing and mediocre acting, especially of the male lead and evil witch - so far), but i will probably give this show a show if only in on-demand when i have time and in the background... would be more fun with a tv-watching partner of course...

i think i'll put the last four episides of fringe on in the background now...

idol season 10

i missed the boys yesterday and missed a coup-le of the girls tonight, but from what i heard here are my picks for top three, in order, for week one... the difference between one and two was appearance and style and choice of song (personal preference and originality), though two had an amazing voice, maybe even better than my first pick...

Pia Toscano "I'll Stand by You" (The Pretenders)
Karen Rodriguez "Hero" (Mariah Carey)
Thia Megia "Out Here on My Own" (Irene Cara)

weeks shall pass and we shall find out if my semi-attentive impulse picks shall hang in there or be eliminated... i may not have the patience to be around the tv every week, but i'll tune in now and then and i'll check out what's happening on wiki and if you do, let me know what you think of the voices you hear :)

harry's law

lol... yeah, lol... not that the show is funny, though it seems to have some decent quirk possibilities, but more cuz i was just (earlier tonight and a few times in the past week or so) thinking about how i've not really had much to say about the background tv lately and here i am inspired to write a few words (and smile a sappy smile a shed an emo tear) by a show i accidently tuned into as i was looking for something to disctract myself from an achy neck and body discomfort that was keeping me awake when i should be asleep but what really has me awake is wanting to write/share more cuz it's been a while, too long a while, since i gave myself some time to take care of myself and the truly personally importantly meaningful things in my heart and mind (not to mention babbling and creativity) and wouldn't you know, that is pretty much what harry's law seems to be trying to be all about (with the usual poetic license)...

also enjoyed fringe tonight...

and wow, dying changes everything episode of house, ever see it?...

fringe

and yet another show on the edge of attraction (we might say the fringe, aye?) with enough possibility to keep me coming back for more, but not enough writing and character development to really become a favorite show, but it is one i want to try to watch when i am home, always hoping it takes the leap to the unknown infinity where an original thought might emerge...

hopefully, next time :)
