Anybody going to watch Smash? Got a rave review in the Chron.
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The pilot was kind of baffling, but DH has seen the first few eps and he really liked it.
(Not that the pilot wasn't good, I just had no idea how they would turn it into an ongoing series.)
Is that on tonight?
At first I thought that they were advertising for another reality tv singing contest.
I'm not sure when exactly it comes on, because all of the ads say "THE MONDAY AFTER THE SUPERBOWL!!" As a person who would watch Smash, how could I possibly know when the Superbowl is??
The Superbowl hasn't happened yet? What are they waiting for?

What, you mean there isn't a huge overlap of televised sports fans and musical-theater fans?
I kid, actually: my sister lives in that overlap. She's a huge baseball fan, and yet every summer drags me to a couple community theater musical productions in the park up the hill.
Speaking of fans, I was very amused on the way into work this morning. I was listening to a podcast, "Stuff Mom Never Told You", which is generally about women's issues, or gender issues, but pretty wide-ranging. This one was about the rise of the female spy in popular culture, and it was so cute, because one of the podcasters is a HUGE La Femme Nikita fan. And not the new Nikita, but the old tv show, with Peta Wilson. She kept swinging from rational, critical-thinking podcaster to squeeing fangirl: it was adorable.
Also, it made me think of Dana.
I still have no idea who's playing in the Super Bowl. And yet I am planning what to cook for the party.
Superbowl is New England vs. New York. This Sunday, I think.
Shall have to see if we're having my father over to watch the game...
Me, I'm going to bring my laptop to visit my folks this weekend and pick my mother's brain about her family history, and enter it into Ancestry.com. During my 2-week free trial period.

Bwahahaha!!
That's exactly what my sister said when we were watching the Golden Globes a couple of weeks ago. "I don't know when that is...and neither does anyone who will watch this show."
But the answer is Monday the 6th.
I know the SuperBowl is this Sunday because all of the food blogs I follow have been posting nothing but wings & dip recipes this week. Lots of "ARE YOU READY FOR GAME DAY?" type headlines. So I assume there is some sort of sporting game coming up in the near future.
