Adventures of a Tofu Slut

Heroes...or at least I would be, if it would hurry and and get back on the air. *sob*

Prison Break, although I got bored and was on the verge of dropping it, except then I realized there were only three episodes left in the season, so I have them, sitting waiting to be watched. Maybe one day.

Hustle. I think we're just finishing up the third series here? Or maybe it's finished. Still, British con artists with a Robin Hood complex - how can you not love them?

America's Next Top Model. I don't have a favourite yet this season, except for maybe that guy Benny who showed up in the crossing guard uniform to teach posing. He was awesome. Still, I am fully on board with my love for this show.

Lost, except that I still haven't found a workable download from last week! Hopefully the one I got last night will work. Because I love my show, and exciting things are happening, dammit.

Ugly Betty. Because of Marc, and Amanda, and Henry (the perfect nerd potential boyfriend), and Justin, and the CAMP and the DRAMA. Frothy and bitchy and just a little sweet.

Veronica Mars. I think I finally got caught up on the season. I'm so sad it hasn't been renewed. I've been hearing that a lot of people don't like Veronica (the character), and I have to admit that when you watch 3 or 4 episodes in a row, the on-again, off-again relationships are a little crazy, but it's still fabulous.

The Riches. This is very fun! Even if Eddie Izzard's accent keeps slipping (and speaking of, why did he have to be American? He could have easily been a travelling Traveller!). Minnie Driver, though, is fabulous. And I've only had to skip through one potentially-too-embarrassing-for-people-on-screen-and-therefore-too-embarrassing-for-me scene. So entertaining.

The Tudors is so very pretty. Also, I love how they're assuming that everyone knows the history - witness the very pointed mention of Anne Boleyn's name when she first shows up, even though it's totally not important at that point.

Doctor Who. You know, I loved the Ninth Doctor so much that I never really got comfortable with the Tenth Doctor. But the first episode of the new series was excellent, and I loved it, and I'm excited. Whee!

What are you watching?

I realize I'm a little late here, but I'd just like to re-avow my love of Prison Break for anyone who might not have been listening the first time. Yes, it's preposterous; yes, it strains credulity. But it's so much fun. So much!

( Spoilers for Monday's episode. )

I also discovered on Monday that my cable hasn't been cut off yet. Maybe they've forgotten about me.

Hi. My name is Rachel, and I love Prison Break.

I understand that it's stretching the boundaries of logic so far that any day now I expect them to break and snap the writers to Antarctica. But I don't care. The intense, complicated plotting that Michael went through makes me laugh, and so does his look of complete disappointment and confusion every time something goes not exactly according to plan. Ha!

Also, Wentworth Miller is hot. As are his full-body tattoos.

I love that it's basically one season-long story arc, although I could do without the boring bits that take place outside the prison. And I love the complicated maneouvres that mean slimy, icky people we hate are now on the dream team. Plus, C-Note's line last week ("Can you dig it?") was the funniest thing I've heard all year.

So, of course, FOX is putting it on hiatus for six months. Considering that they also just cancelled Kitchen Confidential (without even showing us the Michael Vartan episode!) and cut Arrested Development down to 13 shows without renewal, I'm going to take a stand and say that they suck.
