TV Monday, Kitchen Scraps

-Well it's official. Heroes is the show I now love to hate. And no, I do not hate Heroes the way we all loved to hate The OC after season 1 or Entourage or Gossip Girl, in the sense that we love the shows for all their kitschy goodness. No, I just enjoy watching the show continue to send itself down the drain. Remember how I got pissed when Sylar baked cookies? Well today he popped open a bottle of vino and almost sat down to a baked ziti dinner with a very Stepford-Wife like Veronica Mars. I am so over this show. That's what Lost will do to you I guess.

-Top Chef! Top Chef! Top Chef! Filmed in NYC! Wednesday!

-Catch the office last week? I actually tend to agree with Kelly, Jim's character has gotten a bit "smudge" and arrogant (though I'll still be furious if they do not finally get married by the end of the season). Let's see him get out of being "out-Jimmed" by his NYC bizarro self. In the meantime, I am loving the Andy/Angela (ella-ella-ella...) wedding. A lot. I hope he sings at the wedding. And Schrute Farms as the wedding locale? Genius, really. I cannot wait for Mose to make another appearance and for the inevitable reclaiming of Angela by Dwight.

-Just a while ago I received this medically themed video in my email. Why do I love it for all its amateurish goodness? Well the fact that it uses a Weird Al song isn't a bad start. Speaking of which, have you heard his last two singles, here and here? Brilliant.

-So just a week or two ago I wrote about all that to do over how NYC is such an "isolating" place. Now more propaganda! "I want a boyfriend to go to church with and have emotional intimacy with in this weirdly disconnected city …"

-And last, a pretty sweet song a friend showed me. Check one reason to begin listening to The Decemberists.
