I LOVE The Strain. Don't eat while watching if you have a weak stomach.
Andrea texts me every week because she invariably ends up eating while
watching it. Not that she has a weak stomach or anything. She just
forgets and then regrets it.

Well, yeah. Not everything of course. And for about half of the season
you're going to be wondering what's up with those crazy cultists. We do
learn a little more, but damn.

Enjoy! I'm binging on Black Sails! I discovered that even though I don't
get Starz, I get Starz on Demand as part of my regular lineup. I'm SO
THRILLED! (I actually get every movie channel on demand as part of my
regular lineup. And this is the level I have to get if I want BBC
America. Which is one of the two reasons I switched to Fios in the first
place. The other being that the owners of Cablevision are scumsucking
idiots. At least I know Verizon is a huge company and they're not trying
to pretend they want to be my friend. And the service and picture are
way better anyway. And the price.)

I think The Strain starts over here on Wednesday night.

As long as I know that the show can be figured out eventually, I'm fine with it. Orphan Black was puzzling at first also, but I love it.

It's worth watching, but don't expect to figure it out early on. I'm
going to be watching the season finale in a bit (after this week's
episode of The Strain--I'm off work today, recovering from a
three-year-old's birthday party :-))

And I like Justin Theroux a lot in this, even if he grumpy a lot.

I still love Gillian Anderson. She's amazing in Hannibal. Still reeling
from that season finale.

I honestly don't remember him from Six Feet Under, although that may change after I see the new show, and I've never seen Parks and Recreation, although I've heard good things about it. I think it's been aired on BBC4, but it was at a bad time/day for me. I'll have to see if I can get it from Lovefilm.

Lost is still a major plus for many of us. :-p

Amy Brenneman is more of a mainstream actress, having starred in TV shows such as Private Practice and Judging Amy.


But you've not seen Neverwhere based on Neil Gaiman's novel? It's a BBC classic, with Paterson Joseph starring as the Marquis de Carabas. The crazy thing is that when I saw the film of Titus Andronicus starring Anthony Hopkins and Jessica Lange, I kept looking at the actress playing Lavinia, Laura Fraser, and finally remember why she seemed so familiar: she'd played Door in Neverwhere! Peter Capaldi was the Angel of Islington in Neverwhere.


We get a number of HBO and Showtime programmes on either basic Sky/cable channels or freeview, such as Channel 4 or the Beeb. I sometimes forget that they are premium channels in North America. I never paid extra for them there myself.

Any show featuring an unraptured cult called the Guilty Remnants is going to be a must-see for me.

And Wikipedia didn't mention the show's based on a book by Thomas
Perotta? Or that Damon Lindelof (of Lost fame) is heavily involved? You
also forgot to mention Justin Theroux is basically the star. :-)

Well, I'm a North American-type, and I'm here in the House, but I don't
watch television at all at this time (no working set, and not missing it
so I haven't done anything about getting it fixed)(and no cable even
when I do have a working set)(and no Dr. Who at any time that I can
avoid it), so I hadn't noticed.

I don't recall the names of any of the four actors mentioned, though I
often don't notice actor's names, even of the shows that I like. I
don't ring any bells on the Marquis de Carabas, either. I did have a
"best" friend in High School whose surname was Brenneman, though I think
the first "n" was single. Her name wasn't Amy, though.

Sorry. If I'd known you cared, I'd have tried to find out and mention
what I'd found out.

Because Eccleston just never registers to me. (Remember, I don't watch
Dcotor Who.) And I wasn't familiar with Paterson Joseph, not actually
having seen Neverwhere.

It's a freaking weird show. I haven't had a chance to watch the season
finale yet.

Which star had you heard of? Eccleston, Joseph, Brenneman or Tyler? :)

The premise is science fiction -- From Wikipedia:
The Leftovers takes place three years after a global "Rapture", known as the "Sudden Departure", which caused the unexplainable
disappearance of 2% of the world population. The story, presenting
several new mysteries after the main unsolved mystery, focuses on the
small group of people left behind in the fictional town of Mapleton, New York, outside of New York City, where they are trying to move on, while a mysterious cult known as the Guilty Remnant attempts to ensure that
they do not forget.

I have been a big Paterson Joseph fan since Neverwhere. I even watched Law and Order UK for him. I put up with the so-so first series of Survivors and its much better second series (it was cancelled at the end of the much better year, alas) just for him. I wanted him to be the next Dr. Who. (But I also like Peter Capaldi a lot.)

I think you'd need two email addresses - one for each Twitter account.
I have two accounts - by accident because when I was trying to set up
Twitter on my new android tablet I couldn't get it to accept my password
(even though it had just taken it on my android phone and my pc a few
minutes ago) so I ended up having to create a new account - and it
wouldn't let me do with the same email address.

I am considering joining yet another Dark Side, one besides Facebook.

Twitter.

See, I was talking to my students about the idea of setting up a Facebook page for our classes, mentioning that it would be a good place for me to post news regarding the classes, links to articles regarding subjects studied and, among other things, let them know right away if I wake up ill and am calling in sick. (See, where I am, we don't have supply/substitute teachers unless someone's off for a while. If you just have the flu, you inform the students -- at the very least someone else in the department sees them or puts a sign up on the classroom door etc. -- that you're ill and what you want them to work on in the meantime.)  Most of us email students, but they don't often check their emails. So, I thought, maybe Facebook.

Nah, they don't do that much on Facebook, they said. They mostly use it for messaging people individually. Twitter would be better, they told me.

Those of you on Twitter -- how crazy is it? Might I have a personal feed and one just for students? Can I control who sees what?  From your personal experiences, do you like it?

Anything you share on Twitter can be seen by all your "followers", and "re-shared" by them.  You will only see posts shared - or reshared - by those you follow.  I don't think you can restrict your "tweets" to just your own students, but I think you can block anyone who follows you that you don't want.

Apropos of nothing other than that some folks may be interested in this,
here's a link to a PDF of an airship manual from 1917:

CraigieFerg has mentioned that a few times. That could be why I've
had that connection. Dunno though.

I've been watching the second season of Vikings and I just saw the first of
Capaldi's Dr. Who. I've got a few casting changes I'd like to make to both.

Vikings' King Horik keeps looking like Willie Nelson, and I think it'd be
kind of interesting to see Nelson playing that character.

There were a few times during the first Capaldi Who that he reminded me of
Craig Ferguson. While I wouldn't want to replace Capaldi with Ferguson,
I'd love to see Ferguson have a run as the Doctor.

Off to the small, indie film "Guardians of the Galaxy" tonight. I've heard
it's gotten a few good reviews and a small cult following.
