My towel holder

Its broken again mysteriously after the departure of Joe. I think he must have some kind of vendetta against it. :)

The Bjork show at Red Rocks the other day was fantastic. The two times I've seen Bjork are now both my favorite and second favorite concerts of all time. Joanna Newsom opened up for her and was also absolutely amazing. And oh so adoreable.

New Transformers trailer is hot stuff!

Lots of people out there seem to not have enjoyed Spidey 3. Although I recognize why they might think that and I have a few of my own problems with it, it was still very good. Its definitely the "Raimi"est of the movies though in terms of not taking itself very seriously at times.

Finales for Lost and Heroes next week are going to be so very incredible.

In other news, Studio 60 and Veronica Mars have both been canned. Fuck You Bastards!

Extra Heroes!

"While the focus this spring centered on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy"spin-off, NBC was quietly developing one of their own - and announced this morning that "Heroes" has spawned a second series of its own.

"Heroes: Origins" will air in "Heroes'" Monday night time slot when that smash hit takes a hiatus. The net has ordered six segs of "Origins," which, combined with "Heroes," makes for 30 hours altogether.

"Heroes: Origins" will center on characters not yet seen on the original show. Peacock has also added an interactive element to the show: Viewers will be asked to pick their favorite character from "Origins," who will then join the cast of the full-blown "Heroes" skein the following year.

The initiative to keep the "Heroes" franchise in originals for as long as possible harkens back to the golden age of TV, when series aired 39 weeks worth of originals, then took a break.

20 episodes later

So it only took the writers of Jericho 18 mediocre and 2 decent episodes to finally produce something awesome. FINALLY we are at a mad max level of awesome. Now that its finally good I'm sure it will be cancelled, haha.

Heroes and Lost were both incredible this week of course. Only a few more episodes of each! Veronica Mars is also back with its last handful of stand alone episodes. Things still don't look good for renewal as far as I know and that makes me sad. :(

Marvel Ultimate Alliance got some new downloadable content featuring some great new playable additions(Hulk, Magneto, etc). Very cool.

I don't think I mentioned it here, but while driving the other day with my window down, my cell phone headset slid across the dash and flew out the window, to be crushed by the semi behind me as we went around a corner. This is especially inconvenient given that my cell phone's default speaker is absolutely toast and I can only hear people if they scream. Hopefully the new headset will arrive today.

This weekend its time to take my car in for an oil change and I simply must leave the house to go see Spider-Man 3.
