Lest you think I have just been sitting around pouting about the fact that I am a bad writer, let me tell you about the TV I watched yesterday.
1.  The whole current season of Project Runway thusfar.  Hey, you know what, that Suede guy needs to stop referring to himself in the third person.  Seriously.  I also have to admit that Blayne is growing on me.  I mean, he's ridiculous and I hate all of his designs, but the guy does sort of make me laugh.  And I get a kick out of his interactions with Tim.
2.  Two episodes of Shear Genius.  That show is AWFUL.  But  I saw the  Charlie's Angels challenge, and I thought that Kate Jackson looked amazing.  She has always been my favorite Angel.  (And I've mentioned before my fondness of Mrs. King, as well.)  I think maybe Bruce also likes her . . .
3.  Half of Agnes of God.  OK.  I have a couple of questions suggested by this film.  A)  Why is it that certain films become late-night cable staples?  I'm thinking of A of G, but also True Believer (a film that I cannot ever pass up if I come across it), A Few Good Men, An Officer and a Gentleman, The Accused.  I've seen each of these films at least 5 times each.  At least.  But why do these films make good late-night fodder?  I don't get it.  B)  What the hell is A of G about.  In spite of the fact that I've seen it a number of times, I don't know what it is about at all.  I just don't get it.  I think I continue to watch it because I'm always sure that I've never finished it, and thus never got to the heart of the film.  But last night I realized that I just don't understand it.  C)  Why do I like that scene between Anne Bancroft and Jane Fonda in the gazebo so much?  I think that this scene is the other reason I can't not watch the film.  D)  Am I crazy to think that, if I could look like anyone in the world, I might choose Jane Fonda?  The thing that is awesome about Jane Fonda is that she is very, very pretty, but in a perfectly normal kind of way.  I mean, she could be just some woman that you could see in the grocery store or something.  That appeals to me.
4)  Three episodes of Dog the Bounty Hunter.  I suppose I should be wicked ashamed of how much I love the Dog.  But I've decided to embrace it.  Also, I have a big crush on Duane Lee, his least-badass looking son.
That's about it.  If it seems like this is a lot of TV for one girl to watch in one day, you are right.  But I stayed up very late in order to accomplish it, and I was doing lots of other stuff while the TV was on--so it wasn't quite the waste of time it could have been  . . .

A Few Good Men has to be watched at night. It deserves a dark room and no distractions. I love that movie despite it's minor flaws...I'll bet I've seen it six or seven times. And if there's a role more suited for Tom Cruise's ego and limited range, I certainly haven't found it.
Yes, without a doubt, AFGM is the only film in which Tom Cruise is watchable. Well, maybe The Outsiders too, but that is only because he is such a minor character . . .
Why has nothing been said about the second season of the Two Coreys? So you watch A&E, but you won't watch that show, it's absolutely compelling...
