TV is FUN-da owwie
My head's going "boom-boom-boom" in that life-affirming yet abso-fuckin'-lutely painful way that gives a body reason to retreat to a dark bedroom. You know, *more* reason than one usually has, in any case. Least my uterus has stopped acting like a petulant child (thank GOD for aspirin).
Is it me, or has SciFi pumped loads more into BSG's promo budget than ever before? I keep seeing ads on basic TV, and when I flipped to the local NBC news I was gobsmacked by Laura Roslin...Mary something or another (gah! I know her name, but brain dancing to techno bass and nonresponsive) on the interview seat. I'm a fan of it, don't get me wrong - the more publicity for my show the better - but I do hope all of this translates into increased viewership and a longer life. On the same track I am TOTALLY psyched for the premiere. I wish I knew of a premiere viewing party...or had the money to organize one myself. Anywhozit, I know where I'll be come 9PM Friday: in front of my TV with a nice cup of darjeeling and some crackers (yeah, I'm a goddamned party animal).
Tonight's South Park, with a storyline revolving around WoW, was quite amusing, although I think if I actually played the game I'd get more of the in-jokes. As it was I just extrapolated my experiences from MMORPing the only crap my computer could have run, Diablo and Diablo II (ah, the many colleges nights we spent raiding dungeons and leveling up come back so quickly).
And, Jesus, Jon Stewart seems really *bitter* tonight. More than usual. He isn't messing around on the Foley issue, God bless him.

That Yankees thing was weird. They should have just cancelled the game outright instead of keeping people hanging until 10PM.
