Substantive posts are coming, coming, coming. For instance: yesterday I was in DC in not one but two newsrooms with my radio journalism class. Everyone kept saying to us, "Man, you picked a quiet day to visit," as they rushed off somewhere else.
For now, a little catchup:
Day 11 - A show that disappointed you
Dear Aaron Sorkin,
Did you learn nothing from your four critically acclaimed, internationally lauded seasons on The West Wing? You do not, under any circumstances, let characters who like each other get together. Don't do it. Don't.
Studio 60 started well, and then lagged. They just seemed to run out of things to say too quickly, when there was so much left to be said.
Oh well. If it were still on the air there would probably be no Social Network, and therefore this scene wouldn't exist, so I can't get too worked up about it.
Day 12 - An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times
Poirot, Poirot, Poirot. How do I love you. Let me count the ways. Is it your fussiness? Your mustache? The intermittent silliness of Captain Hastings? The subtle kindness/wisdom/patience of Japp? Miss Lemmon's spit curls? Everyone's class distinction outfits? There are clearly too many reasons to name.
(Why have I watched this particular one so much? I was just influenced by the spirit of the renaissance! [6:00-8:20])
