TV has abandoned me
Jun. 10th, 2007 12:07 pmI'm sick. Like, really really Sick, with a capital S. Sinuses, chest, head, throat -- blech. I got out of bed only to go to the bathroom yesterday, and it's looking like the thing to do today, too.
And my TV is not cooperating with my pathetic need to be entertained. I'm too tired and have too much of a headache to actually do anything serious, like decide on a DVD to pop in. I was counting on the TV gods to supply decent movies, or possibly one of those serendipitous marathons of a show I need to catch up on (SciFi did this with Heroes a few weeks ago). Yesterday I caught Saved! from the beginning, which was great, since I hadn't seen it before, and later I watched parts of Shrek and the horrible Die Another Day, which is saved only by the presence of occasionally shirtless Pierce Brosnan.
But not today! TNT is apparently falling back on its gigantic library of Law and Order episodes. No offense to fans of the show, but if I never see another episode of any of the many incarnations of this series it will be too soon. SciFi is running Red Dragon, which was disappointing the first time around -- I actually like Ed Norton when he's the crazy one, and Ralph Fiennes when he's not. And I missed Meet Me in St. Louis on TCM.
Feh. I'm too congested and achy to be expected to make my own viewing choices. So help me!
Should I watch:
* Gosford Park
* more episodes of Supernatural, Season 1
* Sin City
* something else?
