dianora2So I couldn't watch BSG tonight because my fucking cable is out thanks to the horrible rainstorm that hit here today. I cannot dwell on that for too long as it sends me into a blind rage. Thoughts will have to wait until after I see it this weekend. Sniffle.
In brighter news, the entire cast of VH1's upcoming I Love Money has been revealed, and as it will have both Mr. Boston AND Chance, my life is a little more complete.
Also, I read this today: "Meanwhile, VH1 announced Thursday that it's developing a skein with Scott Baio that would put eight former male teen idols of the 80s and 90s together in a house." How exciting is that?? VH1 just gives and gives and gives.
For those who were as confused by last night's Lost as I was, I really loved the EW recap. Really excellent food for thought there.
And for Survivor fans there's a great video interview with Jeff Probst and Dalton Ross here. Wow, Jeff is wee.
And for the Gen X folk among us, I was amused going through this complete list of ABC After School Specials. Some of the titles are hilarious. My favorite is "My Dad Lives in a Downtown Hotel."
What did Nikki Cox do to her face?
This article about the presidential candidates getting interviewed by publications like US Weekly puzzled me, mainly for this quote: "Campaign aides say that they can usually count on a soft, friendly chat conducted by reporters or television hosts who are unlikely to hit them with questions about the Iraq war..." Because, you know, I didn't think ANY reporters were asking the candidates about the Iraq war anymore. Not when there's bowling and pastors to talk about.
I'm mostly just here to wish a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
twinparadox and proggrrl!! It's kind of cool that one of my oldest online friends shares a birthday with one of my newest. That's beautiful.
OK, since I don't have BSG to hash over I might as well try to turn in early, as I'm pooped.

Date: 2008-05-10 04:40 am (UTC)Season 11, Episode 8: The Wave
Original Air Date: 30 March 1983
High School teacher decides to conduct a social experiment, asking his students to take part. But what they don't know is that the experiment is on mind control.
The Wave! OMG, I totally remember that. I think we watched it in school, too. Clearly, it taught a Very Important Lesson.
I also recall "Date Rape" well. I loved Reed Diamond on Homicide, but I always remember him first as the jock date rapist (who grew a conscience in the end IIRC).
I think they realized some of these in box sets, right? Man, that would make for some great group viewing. Along with lots of booze.
