Sounds like good drama!

I just finished reading Women and Shame by Brene something or other. It was pretty cool. I've been trying to start Ruining It for Everybody (Jim Knipfel answered my fan e-mail, which I thought was pretty cool).

Carnivale is still good, but I think Sofie is going to turn out bad. Ben Hawkins is the best reluctant messiah ever. This is probably the last season (I think), so I'm considering the possibility of buying all the dvds at some point.

Deadwood is off to a pretty good start, but I thought the season opener dialogue crossed the genius/precious line a few times. Worth the price of HBO, though.

I think the guy from Numb3rs played the head elf in The Santa Clause and the brother in Slums of Bevery Hills. It looks like he grew up to be pretty hot.

I've been trying to get my spook on with Point Pleasant, but, except for a few good moments, it's been pretty dumb. Until the other night - now, I'm like, what was ON that tape?

Is, you might like House. Or not. The plot outline is pretty rigid week to week (like, Streets of San Francisco rigid), and there's not much serial character development. Act 1, enter patient. Act 2, House and his residents try to figure out what's wrong. One resident gets a subplot, usually involving House. House's boss, the MTF transexual from Ally McBeal, gets pissy with him. Act 3, House does something intuitive with a clinic patient which intuitive thing will come back in Act 5. Main patient has escalating health crisis, and treatment initiated in Act 2 makes this worse. Act 4, the patient nears death as House and the residents try to figure out what's wrong before patient kacks. Pissy boss wrings hands. Act 5, House has confrontation with patient's family, remembers something from clinic patient, saves the day. Epilogue, House may or may not wrap up subplot with resident.
