wow.

I can’t say I know what’s going on. I didn’t even watch the first six episodes – for various reasons. One – I don’t surf. Two – I was pissed at David Milch for dumping “Deadwood”. Three – I didn’t see why I should care. But then I watched the end of an episode. Then I watched half an episode. Then I watched a full one. And I was hooked for the past three. The dialogue – the language that Milch does so well is there. Some of my favorite actors from “Deadwood” are there. And in last night’s finale, he finally gave us a glimpse of his hand. And it was big. I think he is really aiming for the moon here. Very dangerous – but it should be worth watching.

And then – while I am sleeping – they cancel the show! BASTARDS!!

I don’t care how many good (or at least interesting) shows they cancel. The powers-that-be will NEVER catch me watching America’s Next Top Celebrity Fat Idol. Never!

John from Cincinnati making through a season and Karl Rove resigning? “They” would never let us have it so good.

Can they not give anything a chance?

I liked the show and although it took a very weird turn, I was willing to stay with it for a while.

With art – isn’t better to go out on a limb than to sit parked in your car?
