Thanks so much to everyone who's commented with good thoughts for my kitty. It really means a lot and helps more than you know.

I shall now try to focus on the night of pretty men. :)

I think I fall a little more in love with Michael Scofield every week. He totally ALMOST CRIED when Linc was leaving. GAH. I love him so much. And that look he gets when he's desperately trying to salvage a plan that has gone off the rails, and his APOLOGY to the two women, and the way he laughed when ~~50 Cent~~ C-Note made the KKK joke -- LOVE. And he is still mailing cranes to Sara and I am convinced that when he finds out her father is dead he will try to contact her again because he will feel so sad for her. LOVE.

Never leave Sucre alone with an intellectual superior, it will not end well.

Totally knew Tweener was going to a different house, but I didn't expect it to be Chickie's. That was pretty great. And wow, okay, Mahone is A PSYCHO. Interesting that he is now essentially the bad guy, when that's not what I thought he would be. Rest in peace, Tweener, I won't miss you all that much. But I like the way you went out.

And ohnoes Sara! I am not worried for her fate but still, eeeeek!

I commented in

crossmymind's LJ that I'm not surprised that Linc didn't immediately figure out LJ going free was a trap, but Michael should have. I'm choosing to believe that Michael just didn't see the point because it wouldn't stop Linc from going.

Awwww, evil Kellerman totally likes Sara. How bizarre. And THREE WEEKS until the next episode?? AAARGH. I mean, I knew back when the season first started that there would be a break for baseball, but I had managed to put that out of my mind. THREE WEEKS? Not to mention the hiatus it will take in the winter. I really don't know how I'm going to manage it.

I'm still undecided on Heroes. I thought the ending was pretty cool and Greg Grunberg is love, but, eh. I'll probably keep watching for now just because nothing is on opposite it. And because the Indian guy is really hot.

Danny drives an SUV and that makes me love him a little less. So, I'm a little disoriented that Jordan got a lot of the best lines in this one. Amanda Peet is growing on me -- she's not there yet, but she definitely has potential. Having good dialogue helps. It's also entirely possible I'm becoming a bit of a Danny/Jordan shipper. It was kind of cemented when she gave Matt a chaste little kiss on the cheek and then totally planted a big one right on Danny's mouth. Plus I just think the whole idea of a network president sleeping with the executive producer of her hit show is really sexy. Okay, moving on.

Evan Handler is not being given enough to do. That said, I liked the scene with him and Danny and Ron when Ron had memorized the quote. Innnnteresting. Ricky and Ron are no Matt and Danny, and not just because they're not as good-looking.

My Simon love continues to grow exponentially. "Okay, seriously, I'm scared out of my mind." And introducing Tom to the hot girl! Hee.

Liked Harriet a lot, thought she had a point about the small towners. More importantly, I thought the bear thing was really funny and I'm not even sure why. But I laughed very hard. I also liked her pointing out the overload on religious jokes, playing the part of the audience. The Matt/Harriet scene at the party was the most adorable thing ever and her doing Holly Hunter for him was utterly charming and I am completely enamored of them as a couple. However, I don't buy for a second that Harriet wouldn't know how the focus groups work. It was a very Josh/Donna exposition moment.

Jack's 9/11 comment hurt, HARD, but I think it was supposed to, so okay. I liked the scene where he told her about her ex-boyfriend, felt very genuine.

I think they should show less of the sketches that are on the show, because seriously, they're not that funny. I was not a fan of that montage, I really wasn't. I'm guessing it won't become a habit because tonight it was just to show how they're on a roll or whatever, but still.

There are so many actresses who would have been a funnier Jeannie. Sigh.

Danny's line to Jordan about only endangering himself felt a bit too much like Sorkin trying to defend himself. Stop it, Aaron. You do shrooms for fuck's sake. That said, the expression on Danny's face when he sees the article...GAH. I'm so in love with this character already.

One of the awesome things about this show is having someone like Rob Reiner on and he's barely in it.

Danny and Cal yelling at each other across the stage was love. Danny at rehearsal with his arms draped over the sides of the chairbacks was also love, in a different way. Rowr.

Speaking of rowr: the sand scene. Holy LORD. Slashiest scene EVER. The way Danny was wriggling on top of him? OMG. Also, good job on the tackle and fall. "What should we do?" "Get off of me." And then they still had sand on their jackets later. Hee. Liked that Danny had the question put in there to rile Matt up. Also loved Matt's line about saying something about the Democrats if they would just say or do something. Amen, Matty, amen.

And Danny dancing with Harriet was so hot I can't even stand it. Okay, Harriet was kind of nonessential there, Bradley Whitford dancing like that was so hot I can't even stand it. SO HOT. He was so good! And limber. Did I say rowr? And I only imagined it was Josh and Donna dancing at their wedding for ONE SECOND, really. And I liked how it was Danny and Harriet fast dancing the week after Harriet making the comment about Matt being jealous if they slow danced. Nice.

The ending montage was lovely. Ending montage good, skit montage bad.

It pained my heart to see all the talk of audience retention when the retention for S60 has not been good. Wibble.

Almost forgot -- Happy Birthday

em_meredith! Hope it was a great one.
