• Eeek. So, Kristen Bell may have passed on joining the cast of Lost (reportedly not wanting to make the move to Hawaii). So who got to snap her up? Heroes. She’ll have a multi-episode arc in the early part of the second season. Frankly, just when Heroes was finally starting to hit its stride in the later part of season 1, it all fell flat on its face in the last couple episodes. While it’s got some cool stuff in it, I just can’t get behind the show as much as most everyone else I know does. A complicated mythology does not a great show make. Still, adding Kristen Bell to the mix gets the show quite a few automatic bonus points.
• Fox & MGM fire a counter attack after Paramounts HD announcement today, with a list of new Blu-Ray release announcements. Some nice titles on the list. Hey, Fox, us Blu-Ray fans are stuck out in the cold not being able to get Serenity in HD (a Universal HD-DVD exclusive), but you could make us real happy and do a Firefly Blu-Ray set. That would be very, VERY cool. At least I can enjoy the nice new special edition DVD of Serenity that’s released tomorrow (Tuesday).
• Here’s the disturbing picture of the day.
• Or how about the more surreal “Last Jedi Supper“
• Good grief. You mean Survivor is still in production? When will these crappy reality shows DIE?
• URGE, we hardly knew ye. Or cared.
• Welcome back, to that same old place that you laughed about… (sorry, I’ve had that stuck in my head all day, for absolutely no reason - I can’t figure out why it just popped in there, nor won’t go away).
