Please dont use that drill on my shoulder!

Ok I like torture as much as the next person...I mean, who doesnt sometimes fancy a little electroshock therapy? But 24 is just loopy. I still contend its the best comedy on tv. I’m so glad they made Karen Hughes a regular. She’s definitely going to die. I hope someone drops a suitcase nuke on the President’s sister. STOP YOUR WHINING. PEOPLE ARE DYING. AND YOUR (cheap polyester) SUIT IS GETTING SWEATY. Bored rigid by Chloe, which is a disappointment. And wasnt Jack's sister-in-law/fmr bedmate on General Hospital?

What else I am watching at the moment:

ROME: like this season much better. I’m always game for gratuitous sex and violence thinly veiled as a quality series.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: excellent. This is a really high-end “OC” or “Dawson’s Creek”- type show, but a lot smarter and more disciplined, and I don’t feel guilty watching it.

HEROES: Pays off every episode and a 3-year old could follow the plot lines, so you dont spend 2 years of your life watching it and thinking "BUT WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THE DAMN POLAR BEAR". It is the anti-"Lost". Which I dont hate, but does annoy.

UGLY BETTY: I love this show so much because I’m an enormous fruit fly. I GAYS. And this show might be gayer than Sex in the City. I love that it is art-directed within an inch of its life. The rival secretary makes me giggle everytime she’s on air.

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: I find when I tell people I watch this show, they expect me to show up at their house speaking Klingon, but honestly... such a smart show. Its pretty dark, but I love it. You should definitely Netflix it from the beginning. You could pick it up now, but you would miss all the building plot lines (a la Wire).

OTHER: Iain watches some Discovery Channel series called 2057 about future technologies. I watch Grey’s Anatomy when I can be bothered. Which isnt often. I watch Extras but I have to be in the mood for watching abject humiliation. The Office was more satisfying.
