Why do I Keep Getting Cancelled?!?

Well, not me, but my favorite shows. Actually, I think every show I watched last tv year was renewed but that sort of thing is pretty unnatural in the luck of me. I've been watching shows I like that'd've been cancelled because YouTube generally has at least the first episode.

I've been watching Touching Evil (which I didn't watch when it was on tv but I still don't see why it was cancelled- Jeffrey Donovan's a hottie x 17). I'm trying to see the rest of the episodes because the pilot (2-hr surprise gah I never sleep) was so intriguing and Jeffrey Donovan was AMAZING (in all caps, so you know it's true). Very handsome too with the scruffy look. Although the one suit he does wear just looks awful on him- makes him look short and petite.

I've also been watching Hey Arnold! but it seems very few are online. I used to love that show. All the old Nicktunes. I guess the city in the tv show is based on Seattle mixed with New York-ish elements. And the Pig Wars really happened here! Nifty nifty. I liked the movie though, so there'll always be that.

I also found Now and Again online, which was super my favorite tv series when it was on the air. Eric Close of Without a Trace fame, but a little bit younger and a lot prettier. Maybe he's supposed to look gruffer because he's a cop in Without a Trace. But the pilot didn't really suck me in like it did last time, so I guess I'll have to see with episode two. He sure is good looking, though.

I might also look up Stark Raving Mad, Dag, and some of the other old shows I liked. Most of the ones I really enjoyed are either available on dvd (Firefly) or I have already (Jake 2.0). Hoorah for modern technology.

Something Interesting?

I'm sure something interesting must have happened in the last few days but nothing floats up immediately. I saw the first episode of the U.S. version of Touching Evil and Jeffrey Donovan is again a sexy beast (possibly even hotter than in Burn Notice). I read an interview with him on jeffreydonovanfans.com and was unimpressed though- his Touching Evil interview was so funny! I like to think it was just an off day... Anyway, I'm now downloading the most recent interview video on the website, and we'll see then, won't we? Honestly, how can a man who refer to an image of himself as "Jeffrey 'airbrush' Donovan," not be wonderful? It is better for my fantasies if he is, so we'll leave it at that.

I'm trying to add ReBoot terms, as well as other nerdy elements, to my vocabulary. From ReBoot, I have: "By the Code!", "Alphanumeric!," "Pixellacious!," "Totally random!," and "Stay frosty!". Obviously, these will be easily incorporated. When my ReBoot pin comes in, I will be so awesome, it will be ridiculous. Try to hold in your massive excitement (and don't explode). Unfortunately, some of the catchphrases from other shows are just too common (as in, too cool to be of the nerdy level I attempt to achieve): "Engage," "Make it so," "Trust no one," "I want to believe," etc. etc. etc. Instead, you have to alter them, to say things like "pull a Picard" or describe your belief as "Mulder-esque" or call someone a Scully (though I guess she's not the skeptic in the latter seasons O.o ruins me for life.)

I usually can go into a sidetracked happiness with a few lines from Beauty and the Beast or the Sloppy Seconds Song "I Don't Wanna be a Homosexual". Namely, "It's true, Lefou!" and "Don't tell me that!" fade into song. If you do it deadpan, people don't recognize what you're doing right away. Hoorah.

Okay, so I just watched the interview for Burn Notice and Jeffrey Donovan is too cute in it to be real. He is obviously a figment of my imagination. God, I love imagination. It's so sexy and spy-y. New season yay but I will have to wait another week. In the while, I'll submit to Buffy-ness, Angel-ness, Lois and Clark-ness, and, if ever if finishes bloody downloading, Jeffrey Donovan Touching Evil-ness. Oh, and I guess, In Plain Sight-ness because Marshall tugs at my heart strings galore.

I may watch to much TV....
