Sequels usually suck and remakes/reboots almost always do. I would prefer that studios start yanking random scripts out of the slush pile and producing them, rather than giving us yet one more sequel to (or remake) of some tired property. Enough is enough.TheShadowKnowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11073693648569864707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-28780064406228270482013-07-01T09:12:31.411-04:002013-07-01T09:12:31.411-04:00Kristen Bell is so adorable.Kristen Bell is so adorable.TheShadowKnowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11073693648569864707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-65992260869611991162013-06-30T17:03:35.558-04:002013-06-30T17:03:35.558-04:00No worries.

Sorry to be so pesty with it! :) <br /><br />I probably wouldn't have even noticed this one, except that I saw a blurb earlier in the week that said something about "Emily Meade from <i>Fringe</i>" and I had no idea who she was. So when your blurb said she was Etta, it doubled down on my confusion and I finally had to go look her up!

I *knew* they'd ...LOL, Josie, more than once. <br /><br />I *knew* they'd add Sarah Shahi. <i>Person of Interest</i> needs to be more of an ensemble. Two people cannot carry a one hour action series alone without burning out with exhaustion! Just ask Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki. I suspect only their youth and their maniacal fan base (and rising salaries) has carried them this far.<br /><br />I agree with Jess that <i>Outlander</i> was more than sex and kilts (time travel! Culloden! gay intrigue!) but I did get tired of it and after the <i>Torchwood</i> debacle, I've decided I'm never subscribing to Starz for something specific again. :)<br /><br />Rachel Maddow actually had the two weddings of the Prop 8 plaintiffs on her show.

I really like the book series (although it is starting to get a bit overlong for me), and feel like there is far more to it than sex and kilts. Although, on Starz with RDM, I'm pretty sure it will just be sex and kilts. Erg.<br /><br />Minor correction: Emily Meade played Ella (Olivia's niece), not Etta. I got really confused when I read your blurb and started wondering if Georgina Haig had changed her name, or if Ms. Meade had played the little girl version of Etta! :)Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-28105063664904754652013-06-30T07:55:06.219-04:002013-06-30T07:55:06.219-04:00I will, of course, review the finale for you, Josi...I will, of course, review the finale for you, Josie. <i>The American Baking Competition</i> was one of the few reality shows that didn't get a red from me. I believe it made it all the way up to blue. Shocking, I know.<br /><br /><i>Person of Interest</i> is, I agree, one of the great shows on television. The problem is TPTB at CBS. For whatever reason, they do not stream the show so it is impossible to catch up with it until the DVDs are released. I just hope they come out before next season begins.<br /><br />This show is one of the reasons I went back to a cable/DVR subscription. I managed to cut the cord for nine months, but with all the new shows and the idiots at CBS, I found I had to go old school.<br /><br />I sent a copy of the <i>New Yorker</i> cover to every gay and lesbian couple I know. It ranks as one of the best they have ever done. And, if you missed you, check out how the Empire State Building was lit. Absolutely smashing.<br /><br />http://www.buzzfeed.com/hunterschwarz/the-empire-state-building-was-lit-up-rainbow-colorsChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-56790289584961255242013-06-30T06:52:08.253-04:002013-06-30T06:52:08.253-04:00He's the most deserving on a nom this year, af...He's the most deserving on a nom this year, after Tatiana Maslany of course.
