| don’t we know this stuff already? | May 15, 2009 | It must be said that I just don’t understand the big deal about Mad Men. Sure, it’s visually stylish and beautifully evocative of another era, but I find little of interest in the actual characters or narrative. I’ve watched the first number of episodes and it doesn’t grab me. What’s so interesting about watching a […] |
| all quiet on the blogging front | April 30, 2009 | And with the end of the Biggest Loser I found myself lacking impetus to blog. What’s going on?

I have lost my TV centre, my […] |

| They just don’t write catchy sitcom theme tunes like they used to in the 80s | April 26, 2009 | Funny actually. I started proof reading my book manuscript and in the preface which was newly written I had noted that one of the shows I grew up watching was the Golden Girls. And then I hear the news that Bea Arthur has passed away. What the attraction of a sitcom about four female retirees […] |

Sure he “fell on his sword” (and I quote directly) by “taking his foot off the pedal” (again quoting directly) by falling BELOW THE YELLOW LINE so his daughter could make it to the final And then […] |
