Even though they made 13 episodes, only the first few made it to the air on it's original run.

That's comforting.

Well, for me, not them.

I'm watching a scene with Tim in a bar right now, and it's weird. It's episode 9. Nate would have fixed things by now! But the whole son in trouble premise does make me expect certain flashbacks.

I need to bump my Nero Wolfe DVDs higher in the list. Despite having almost 200 titles in my instant viewing queue, I resent shows/titles that need to be viewed on physical media.

I love John Rogers and his attitude to distribution that puts Leverage (theoretically, at least) available legally online within days of airing. I can keep my TiVo clean, and rewatch without having to skip commercials.

I need to watch this show, don't I?

I like it. It has a similar atmosphere to Damages, without the insane manipulative air.

Kidnapped is available online (in the US) here.

I just discovered that Ditaboo has moved from just scratching the couch to actually tearing pieces of fabric from the underside.

This does not make me happy, but at least the damage is where people can't see it.

I watched Kidnapped and was pissed when they pulled it. I would love to rewatch and see it in its entirety. My question is: were they able to wrap it up in 13 eps? I can't deal with stuff that has no proper ending; I still can't bring myself to watch Deadwood despite owning the DVDs.

were they able to wrap it up in 13 eps?

Yes. That's why they continued to make the show after it was cancelled.

I'm thinking... the illegal and dangerous practice of riding your spaceship real close behind a bigger ship, and having sex while the quantum slipstream pulls you into hyperspace. It makes the orgasm seem to last forever.

I'm kind of surprised this wasn't a Farscape episode.

That's why they continued to make the show after it was cancelled.

Good on them.

Sisto's partner is way cool. It's possible that it's way obvious what I just saw her do that prompts me to post that she's cool, but she was cool before that too.

Awesome, thanks! (about Kidnapped)

I have discovered the hilarity of Axe Cop, a comic written by a 5-year-old and illustrated by his 29-year-old brother. It's pretty awesome. Here are some sample lines:

So the new team went to the land of volcanoes and fought the gang of dinosaurs with their axe and flute.

So Telescope Cop and Uni-Baby went back to their secret lab and ate apples. Then they grew apple hands that could shoot apples.

"I got a unicorn horn from getting so smart."

"I need to go to the Weapon Store first."

That reminds me of Matt Groening's Will & Abe cartoons.

I need apple hands that shoot apples.

And a Midnight Bomber Who Bombs At Midnight.
