I am sticking a tape in to record Oprah Letterman... the CBS critic just gave a lukewarm review to the Color Purple a 6 out of 10... but I still wanna see it.

I have more faith in Jason's reviews than the nitwit on channel 2

DR MATTH - the EARL and OFFICE moves are good news to me.  I can watch them on Thursday and hopefully the NEW edition of THE AMAZING RACE on Tuesday.

Since I watch CSI on Thursdays at 9, I'll still be recording them, but it doesn't free up a troubled Thursday spot for me because I love SCRUBS, too. I will still have three favored shows coming on at 9: SCRUBS, HOUSE, and SUPERNATURAL.

However, with the cancellations of NIGHT STALKER and REUNION, I will have fewer shows on Thursday at 9 to worry about.

Does  anyone know when a new episode of Alias will air?  Did I miss it?  Did anyone else hear that they confirmed this is the final season (sorry if I missed any posts)

Also Jennifer Garner just gave birth to a little girl.

Next Wednesday at 10 on ABC.

LOL....I don't have Tivo or DVR and my broadcast stations are on cable through my VCR - so I can only record something I am watching...which kind of defeats the purpose, but I am still in the 20th Century, recording wise.  8)

I watched the repeat of CSI tonight which was this season's premiere. Even though it aired back in September, I didn't remember the solutions for any of the cases, so it was almost like a new episode.

Snowing here.  A very wet heavy snow, but it is not staying on the ground.  May be different by morning....but right now it is okay!

ABC says it's to assure that ALIAS gets the biggest possible audience before it goes on hiatus (due to Garner's maternity leave).

At this point, though, they couldn't harm it any more than it's already harmed. The move to Thursday night at 8 was a final definite nail in its coffin.

Then, I watched a movie I recorded this afternoon - NANCY DREW, DETECTIVE. I have never seen any of the four films Bonita Granville made as Nancy Drew, and I was astonished that this one was based on my favorite Nancy Drew book - PASSWORD TO LARKSPUR LANE.

I didn't record any of the others since I wasn't sure I'd like them, but now that it was OK, I'll record the other three the next time they pop up on TCM.

I have to say, however, that the Nancy Drew film definitely shows the ravages of time. There was a section late in the film where the emulsion had peeled off the actual film stock and was just white light showing in sections of each frame. Beyond repair, I suspect. I will see if the other three are in as bad a shape as this one.

Right now, the DVR is picking up DEATH AND THE MAIDEN from the IFC. I've never seen this film and am looking forward to it at some point over the weekend.

DR MATTH - I have seen them a few times and enjoyed them - I liked the books as well.  But as you say, they are very said and worn looking.  John Litel looks so YOUNG AND THIN playing her father.

Interesting B-films series.

Bedtime for ME!!

I also started another movie from the to-watch shelf that I've never seen before - ALIEN 3. It got horrific reviews, but it's directed by David Fincher whose work I liked in SE7EN, so let me see what it is that folks objected to so much.

I have to say, the first 15 minutes were pretty intense, and I was already getting a creepy feeling about one of the aliens popping up out of the remnants of that ship.

They're short, so watching them is similar to reading one of the NANCY DREW books -  a quick read!

Yup, it was Killbot who was at the door, out the window, onto the street, through the front door of the building and to the apartment door.

I won't spoil too much. But I totally hate what Mr. Trump did. I am so NOT happy!

I'm watching it RIGHT NOW!  I don't know what you're talking about...yet, so I'm going to stop reading.

NANCY DREW, REPORTER is available on DVD for cheap...and it is a fun movie. I taped the other two today and hope to have a chance to watch them this weekend.

Well, we three are headed off to bed!

Back from a long tech (sort of) rehearsal.  I'll tell you all about it in the notes.  

What a way to start December - 300 posts, baby, that's what I'M talkin' about.  I just ate my dinner whilst catching up on all of them.  Just what up was doing on all of them is anyone's guess.
