I agree, I much preferred it with Ziva. Missed the last three episodes of season 4 last week, so am hoping that they repeat them some time.

For the first time in several years, South Park tonight was actually pretty danged funny.

Spoilers back here: The reason why Obama and McCain ran was it was an elaborate scheme to steal the infamous Hope Diamond. According to their plans, there's an escape tunnel leading from the Oval Office and out of Washington, D.C., in case of emergency evacuation, and the tunnel goes directly under the Smithsonian Museum of History, which houses the Hope Diamond. One of them would get elected and during the night of celebrating, there would be enough distraction for one of them to get into the Oval Office "just to have a look around". Even Kyle's baby brother Ike was involved in the plot.

It was a funny episode. Tracy Jordan as a white woman cracked me up. And Kenneth's undoing... score 1 for Jack.

Just finished watching the final episode (of two) of Sharpe's Peril on ITV1. I didn't think it was as good as previous Sharpe adventures, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Sean Bean is a great actor and am glad he keeps returning to the small screen to play a character I have to enjoy a lot. Now I want some more Hornblower.

Technically, QVC, it's like white noise for me(unless there's jewelry on or hand bags or make-up). Other wise I watched Two and a Half Men.

House, during which they showed an episode for tomorrow's Bones. Now, I don't watch Bones but intend to rent the DVDs. I might have to watch tomorrow though, with Brendan Fehr guest starring--as David Boreanaz's brother, no less! Oh old WB, how I miss thee.

I actually caught that the other night too. I cracked up and I don't even like South Park! I loved the Ocean's 11 type feel to it.

Naruto uncut, boxset 2 and half of 4 (defective disc...blah). Also, Naruto Shippuuden 85.

Yeah I know, that anime's all I seem to watch. I don't watch much regular TV these days, mainly cause it's the same stuff over and over. Tired of it. Ah well, I enjoy the series so whatever. Shippuuden's really getting good, too. I'm a bit sad that there is no episode this week, but next week's special should more than make up for it. Shikamaru's almost as awesome as Kakashi.

The Peanuts Thanksgiving special. Yeah, corny, I know, but adorable and with a rockin' WC Jazz soundtrack!
So, would Charlie Brown be an example of a passive protagonist? Just wondering.

Caught the Thanksgiving special last night. I think Charlie Brown is the very definition of 'passive'.

I just watched the "Bloody Mary" episode of Supernatural. Was that ending taken from the Ring or what? LOL! It was a scary episode though!

Started watching the Duckman DVD. Great rude and crude high octane humor, lots of clever and thorough satire, plus the look of the animation was funky and stylish (many of the Rugrats people worked on this, and it shows). I am a dork for loving this, but I do.
