I didn't even notice that Lie to Me was being edged out until someone mentioned it in Natter and I was all, "oh, I haven't seen that since the pilot." Now I have to go figure out what's in its way.
Life and Criminal Minds for me.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Love that Phil signed.
Love that they are back on trains, where being smart and chatting with locals can really change it up and stagger people time-wise.
Happy with who was eliminated although feel sort of bad since it was so close. That's a sad way to lose the first leg.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Tonight's Top Gear was great fun. Three American muscle cars on the road from San Francisco to the Bonneville Salt Flats, with a stopover in Reno and prolonged bitching by James May about his Cadillac not being a typical Caddy and instead trying to be a Merc or BMW. Only when they ventured into the mountain roads of eastern NV did he become a complete convert to his Cadillac. Clarkson loved his Corvette, and Hammond equally adored his Dodge Challenger. Loads of fun, and they didn't spend too much time mocking Americans, like they did on their trek across the South, except for the drunks in the Reno casino, who were eminently mockable.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wait. A member of SWV is on Survivor??? She cut her nails first, right? Or was that just the other one.

What is funny to me in that article is it makes Mike White the celebrity, whereas I know many people who see the Rev. Mel White as the celebrity in that pair.

Mike White definitely has more mainstream name recognition, or at least credits -- I mean, everyone knows School of Rock!

I did not know Mike White or his father.
SMV I know.
Clearly there is an aspect to my experience that is incredibly racialized!

Absolutely, but more in certain circles, obviously.
I am reminded of my mother saying, "Nancy Carlsson-Paige is Matt Damon's mother?? She's famous!" Sure, in her field.

I have never heard of Mike White's father, but I know Mike from School of Rock, Freaks and Geeks, and I also know that he was a staff writer on Dawson's Creek!
