I saw Frost/Nixon today (A+) and, before that, I watched Thursday's Supernatural and CSI.
It was tough because the episode was as much about introducing Laurence Fishburn as it was saying goodbye to Grissom. The show has always done service to his character, though, and I get that the show runners need to set up Fishburn well if they want to maintain their ratings. So, okay. As a standalone episode it was fine - maybe a bit too high on the "watch creepy guys torture women" scale.
I liked Grissom's last walk through the halls and, surprisingly, I liked that we saw him in Costa Rica. More than anything, I was worried that we wouldn't know where he was going after Vegas and I'm glad that we were given that scene. I want him to be happy and, even though I think Sara's all wrong for him, it felt really good to see him go after what he wants and what he needs. But I miss him already. Not that I'm overly invested in the character or anything.
I, of course, have more on Battlestar Galactica. Just two things today, though. First up, if you're not already listening to the Galactica Watercooler podcasts, I highly encourage you to check them out. Chuck, Audra, and Sean are great and I'm so happy that their content is back to BSG. This week's podcast was particularly awesome and included a surprise phone call from RDM and some other guests. Second, here's a great Access Hollywood interview with the final cylon.
What else? Last night I went out to dinner with a new friend who is, quite possibly, the most social and locally connected person I've ever met. She knows everything happening locally and all of the people who'll be there. It's wild. She introduced me to Suicide Girls last night and I ended up buying this Suicide Girls gift book at a local comic shop. The photos are outstanding. The website? Not so much.
As first seen via svmadelyn, here is the Band from TV debut on Leno from Friday night. AHAHAHA. This is one of the best things I've EVER SEEN. I think it's a situation where the total is less than the sum of its parts but, individually, these guys were a hoot. Hugh Laurie, Adrian Pasdar, Greg Grunberg and, OMG, Jesse Spencer killed me. Jesse Spencer should always play the violin and always in that outfit.
These days I am a woman without a tether. I need to find a suitable release. I need to find something that grounds me. The gym only seems to work while I'm there. I need something sustainable. I don't know what it is but I'm searching. In the meantime, I'm reading h/c fic and this new post-apocalypse SGA AU by rheanna27, The Hard Prayer more than did the trick.
