| Notes to myself for the TWoP SPN summer rewatch. Written by Rachel Nave and Bill Coakley. Directed by Kim Manners. Okay, I tried to rewatch Bugs, and it just wasn't happening. I need to move on to keep up the with rest of the rewatch folks over at TWoP and I have True Blood season one DVDs to watch. --Ace | |

| I'm not the biggest fan of the new Doctor Who, which seems to get almost universal fan and critic praise, so I quite enjoyed this Io9 article: Why Steven Moffat isn't all that(contains spoilers for aired episodes) The author's position doesn't entirely reflect the problems I have with the Tennant seasons of Doctor Who, although this sentence about some Doctor-female schmoop could've come from my brain: "It's pretty jarring, if you're used to watching a show about a time-travelling maverick who values his companions above all else, who never has sex, and whose one prized possession is his TARDIS." And considering what a chauvinist Moffat comes off as in this interview, I suppose it's a relief his female characters are just two-dimensional bores, not something worse. --Ace | |

| Last summer, my mom asked me if I was watching "that new Bruce Campbell show" and I said no, because although I dig Bruce Campbell, I don't find spy shows interesting. We were talking about Burn Notice (link to USA network) which premiered on June 28th, 2007, on the USA network. My mom really loves her some USA shows. Somehow, my mom talked me into giving the show a chance, so I tuned in somewhere in the middle of the twelve episode season. Despite my general disinterest in the spy genre, I was pretty quickly hooked by Burn Notice (link to imdb). It had a lot more humor than I expected, mostly of the snarky and bleak kind, the Miami locations were gorgeous and a nice change from the usual LA or Vancouver locations on the shows I usually watch. And yes, I must admit, lead actor Jeffrey Donovan is both fun to watch as Michael Westen, the "burned" former covert operative, and he is damn easy on the eyes. Sweet little TiVo recorded the pilot episode of Burn Notice (link to wikipedia) for me the other night, and I decided to re-watch it while folding laundry. After getting sucked into the middle of season one last summer, I had caught up on all the episodes I missed either in reruns or on-line, so I had seen the pilot a few months ago out of proper order. While I was rewatching the other night, however, I noticed for the first time that as well as being the good introduction to a fun summer show, it’s a really great pilot in and of itself. The characters, plot, art direction and humor are all very consistent with the episodes that follow and the script does a great job of intriguing you about the story to come. There's also some exciting casting news for season two: Details if I've tempted you to check out this show: Pilot episode repeats: Saturday April 26th, at 9:00 am on USA Season One DVD release: June 17, 2008 Season Two premiere: July 10th on USA --Ace
