Wednesday Night TV

Second straight night out, so I'm way behind. Highlight for spoilers:

  • Lost: I'm sure everyone caught the Wizard of Oz thing with the red shoes, but I wonder how many people got the Out of Sight reference... Desmond should've gone and robbed a bank.

    Anyway, I tend not to like including time travel in stories that aren't entirely about time travel... it ruins the continuity of things. But I kinda saw this coming with the backwards talk and History of Time stuff that popped up on the interweb this week, and it's not so bad cause at least he can't change the past really. But hey, a question asked (how is Desmond seeing the future?) and answered! Lost is moving forward. Good times.

    For some reason, I'm picturing the Desmond/Charlie thing going forward like one of those cartoons. You know... the ones where the dog gets left in charge of the baby, and the baby gets distracted by something shiny wanders off into a series of improbable near accidents, and the dog keeps barely rescuing the baby, but the dog takes a beating in the process? Robert Smigel's Comedy Central show TV Funhouse did an awesome parody of those where instead of just a baby, it was a baby, an immigrant, and a guy on mushrooms. And a ridiculous tangent seems like a good place to wrap this up.
On the Tivo: L&O: CI, Friday Night Lights, Knights of Prosperity, Bones.
