Can I get a resounding FUCK YOU to FOX?

Thanks guys. ;)

Honestly, though... shitty news. Terminator was already on the verge of cancellation (though it did get a full order, so yay! Maybe it's in better shape than we thought), and this oughta push it over the edge. And, well... we all remember what happened LAST time a new Joss show premiered Friday nights. *sigh* Good luck, Dollhouse.

Sitting in Koerner Library before class... theoretically was supposed to be getting some work done, but that... hasn't really happened. ^^; Instead I've been deliberating over whether or not to pick up a copy of Heroes season 1. I want to re-watch season; there's a lot of details I've forgotten... plus it's a shiny 7-disc set with a ton of extras. Found an eBay buy-it-now fr only $34 inc. the shipping, which is pretty good. I dunno; I don't really have time to be watching more stuff right now, and it seems silly to be spending so much time rewatching stuff I've already seen instead of, say, getting off my ass and finishing Homicide: Life on the Street or watching Battlestar Galactica or Stargate: Atlantis or.. something. I have a list somewhere in my head. ^^; Instead? I'm rewatching Babylon 5 obsessively. And I'd rather like to finish that before starting something else (though it'll be awhile; I only just started s2). Plus I'm gonna need to rewatch bits of Farscape for my essay soon. And admittedly, it's not like I don't have ages and ages to rewatch Heroes s1 (and 2, for that matter) before season 3 starts.

*thinks* Well, I've got another auction that's only $26 with the shipping which is a proper auction, but it ends tomorrow and there are no bids, so maybe I'll wait and see if I can get that one... I'll feel marginally less guilty about it if it's $8 cheaper. XD

Anyways, I watched Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles 1.03 on the bus today and enjoyed it. God bless technology, ya'll - I missed it last night, so downloaded it overnight, converted it to iPod format this morning, and tossed it on my iPod Touch to watch on the bus. Sweeeet. Decent ep; I'm enjoying the show overall. Gotta love Summer Glau. :)

Okay, better run to class now..

Another reason i love living in Canada... I missed the premiere of The Sarah Connor Chronicles at 8 on Fox, but CTV is airing it at 9. :) Missed the first 5-10 minutes, but am enjoying it so far. Though I have a confession to make - I've never seen Terminator. I saw the 2nd one ages ago, in high school, but remember next to nothing. Yes, I fail at life. I know a few basics about the movie, but not enough to really understand the backstory to the show. Oh wells. ^^;

I love watching Summer Glau kick ass. XD Go Summer!

And DUDE, no one ever told me that Dean Winters would be in it! I bounced around like a little kid when I saw him. :) Took me a few moments to realize it was him - shorter hair, some stubble, and he looks older... but recognized his voice before I recognized his face. ^^ He's just a recurring character for now, but I think he's gonna be in a few eps at least. Yays.

Anyway, I may go hunt up a quick summary of the Terminator movies... or, you know, just watch them. ^^; This is quite good so far, has gotten good reviews, has a good cast, and is one of the only damned shows on TV right now so I might as well watch and enjoy it.

(speaking of, I watched the "Golden Globes" tonight... heh. Missed the first bit, but caught the last half an hour. I think it was, what, about 45 minutes long altogether? Very exciting. -__- On the other hand, it certainly went a lot faster than the normal awards, and without the boring bits. But I missed the glamour and the stars and the red carpet and the funny speeches.. yes, I am shallow and want to be entertained. XD)

Okay, off to watch the rest of the episode properly...
