Am feeling intensely emotional today, so if, at any point, I break down crying or start yelling and punch a wall please do excuse me. It's just one of those days.

It is entirely impossible for me to spend a Thursday morning without talking about Wednesday night TV, so, cut for your convenience and in no particular order are


First off, the man who cowrote last night's episode of Lost, Javier Grillo-Marxaugh, also produced/wrote on Boomtown. This is probably why last night's episode was one of the few that effectively utilized the ensemble cast. There was a good balance between Jin's flashbacks and the actions on the island. I could feel all of these character threads being pulled and see people falling into patterns that will hopefully be important in upcoming episodes.

Or I may just be jonesing for some more Boomtown. Wow, that was a great show.

Still in love with Sayid and wish that he would make out with me instead of Shannon. Strangely enough, I do not hate the Shannon/Sayid and thought it was actually rather cute.

I still don't trust Locke. Shoot, for most of the episode I thought he was the one who burnt the raft for nefarious island-worshipping reasons of his own. Having Walt burn the raft was a nice touch, however. I love how kid-like Walt is, 'cause in kid logic it makes perfect sense to burn up the raft.

Hurley is still the coolest. At the end where everyone was being all couple-y and Hurley was sitting alone on the beach listening to music I was all, "I'll sit next to you honey!" Then, of course, his batteries gave out, which was, strangely enough, the perfect way to end the episode.

This was my favorite epsiode since December and one of the best of the entire season. Two thumbs up.

I also stuck around and watched Alias last night because Gina Torres was on it and I'm a big fan. It was not boring and Gina kicked loads of ass and Weiss was a big ol' woobie and Jack killed everyone with his Glare o' Doom. Also, Vaughn was occasionally hot, though still dull. The non-Gina scenes served as excellent background noise while I was doing the dishes.

In summary, Lost was great, Alias was okay and I was happy.

Hmmm, looks like I'll be participating in this 'work' thing today. Well, isn't that novel.

And, FYI for BoB fans, I have a tape with various recent guest spots from some of our boys that I would be more then happy to share with anyone who is interested and wasn't able to catch them. Just let me know.

I love Hurley! Can't wait for next week. Best ending ever, btw, because he came on with his headphones, and I was all "Pshhhsttt wtf yeah right, when are those batteries going to just give out already??" and then I resuspended my disbelief and enjoyed the inspirational montage, and then it went "shiccc shicckkk" and I was all "*taps remote* WTF is up with my tape?" and then music cuts out... and "Sonofabitch".

F'n brilliant, folks.

If I were on the island I would spend all day hanging out with Hurley, playing with Walt and Vincent and gazing longingly at Sayid from afar. It'd be fun!

Next week is so going to rock. Am already bouncing in anticipation.

Aww, thanks. I love Mal. I used to have one that had that look of mischief that said "Wanna?" but it got bumped. I can't let this one go, though.

OMG!! How did I totally miss this post when it first appeared?! Please accept my apologies for not replying much, much, much sooner.

Umm, the one tape I have full has Richard Speigh, Jr. on Alias, 4 episodes of ER with Eion Bailey and an episode of Medical Investigation with Neal McDonough and Michael Cudlitz.
