It would appear that this past Sunday’s episode of Defying Gravity, episode #8, will be the last one we’ll get to see. Episode #9 is scheduled to air in Canada (and oh, how I miss getting Canadian TV stations) but none of the rest seem to be on anyone’s schedule.

Yes, it’s Grey’s Anatomy in space. Yes, it’s hard-to-swallow characters and situations, and there’s a lot of suspension of disbelief required. But I was still enjoying the show. It doesn’t hurt that Ron Livingston is so good-looking, and I like Laura Harris so much. Plus, I’ve always had a soft spot for girl-friendly space soap operas (Farscape, anyone?) in general.

I wonder if they’ll put out a DVD with the full 13-episode season, so we can find out a little more about the ongoing mystery. I also wonder when the official cancellation word will come down, since all signs are pointing toward it, but I can’t find any verifiable word yet.

I just watched the 2-hour premiere of America’s Next Top Model. This season, the contestants can be no taller than 5’7″. Thank goodness, it appears that crazy doesn’t discriminate.

Unfortunately, the most insane girl, a weird jesus freak, dropped out. But we still have the strangely quiet girl, the angry girl, the hick, the girl with the broken foot, and a passel of other tiny lovelies. The most startling thing so far is that Tyra looks like a frightening monster next to these girls. It’s like seeing a beautiful Hagrid next to the little Hogwarts students.

It does disturb me that Tyra keeps calling these girls “petite”. I don’t know that I’d call a 5’7″ girl “petite”, since petite fashion is for chicks under 5’3″. But I’ll still watch.

We also had the first audition episode of So You Think You Can Dance this week. It would appear that tap dancers are going to bring it this year. I’ll be rooting for Ryan Kasprzak.

Coming up in the next three weeks: The Biggest Loser, Dancing with the Stars, Survivor, The Amazing Race, The Next Iron Chef, and probably more. Not to mention the scripted shows. And the reality shows already in full swing, like Project Runway, Hell’s Kitchen, and Top Chef: Las Vegas. Some would say it’s too much TV. I say, bring it on.

Hurt in accident? We help! We nice nurse lady, mean officer! Maybe call good helper lawyer man!

Me also capitalize preposition.

This could be read two ways. The company could be called “JUS BLAZE,” with the crafty use of a dollar sign in place of the letter S. Granted, that doesn’t make any sense as far as grammar or spelling or anything.  Or, it could just have an artsy dollar sign to separate the words “JU BLAZE.” 

I really, really hope it’s the first one.

I’m in the process of exporting my blog entries from elsewhere and putting them up here.  There’s a bit of editing; apparently the export/import process doesn’t like special characters like the cents-sign or the copyright symbol.  Plus, I’m culling out a bunch of crap, like quizzes and memes and other boring stuff.

That’s not to say I’m not leaving some boring stuff in.

Overall, I took 2600 blog posts and culled them down to 255.  And of those, 84 have to do with American Idol.  Most of those are episode recaps, and I actually really enjoyed reading them again.
