TDTVS

4.5 Months To Go

Until Season 6 of TDTVS. They are already filming episodes in Hawaii and like the junkie I am I’m already reading the spoilers…

I had downloaded all the Season 5 vids from a back alley of the interweb and burned them onto DVDs. I lent these out to a co-worker a couple of weeks ago and yesterday he came up to me and asked what he needed to do to get another set of discs. Seems he has misplaced them. He has turned his office, home and cars inside out with no luck. Curiously a Neflix disc of Air Bud: Golden Receiver (AKA: Air Bud II) is also missing from his possession. Coincidence, I think not.

This Sunday is Episode 5 of TDTVS2 and AMC is going to run a mini-marathon of the first 4 episodes leading into numero cinco. Guess where I’ll be from 6:00PM until 11:00PM?

Mad Men Yourself

That's me with the briefcase.Bonus post tonight.

Wanted to show you what it would look like on my first day at Sterling Cooper if I flashed back to 1965.

Less than 3 weeks to go before new episodes of TDTVS2 and you can amuse yourself until then by recreating yourself in Swanky ’60s Style With MadMenYourself.com.

Lost Afternoon

Instead of listening to the FRS ballgame on the internet I spent an hour or so watching the videos from Comic-Con of the panel for TDTVS (only six months to go.) The producers answered questions from the audience (as cryptically as they could on some, more honestly on others), they had several of the shows actors join them and there were several videos shown, including a phony America’s Most Wanted segment on Kate Austen. But my favorite was this commercial for Mr. Kluck’s:

When I finally decided to see how the Sox were doing I went to their home page and there was a large photo of John Smoltz pitching and this bit of verbiage underneath: J.D. Drew singled, moved to third on Adam LaRoche’s single and scored on Jed Lowrie’s sac fly as the Red Sox broke through in the fifth. Reading that you might think things were going well for Boston, but in fact it was just the opposite, they were losing six to nothing when the run scored and Smoltz had already pitched his last pitch in the game. With this loss the FRS will have won 2 out of three games in this series and usually when you are winning 2 of 3 you are playing good ball, but they can’t catch the Yankees playing like that because right now the MFY are 9-1 in their last ten games.

Started down, still down.

No Real Excuse

Normally because this is Wednesday I could use the upcoming broadcast of TDTVS as an excuse for not writing anything here, but we have at minimum 197 days before that happens again, so I have no real excuse.

What’s An Hour

A lot when you are a LOST fan. The sixth and final season of the show starts in less than 7 months and now news comes that instead of just 17 hours of island madness we will be treated to 18.

206 To Go

Simpsonized LOSTWar of the Colossal BeastIf my guess as to when the sixth and final season of TDTVS starts is correct there are only 206 days to go. See more like this over at Springfield Punx where the author has just finished up a week of Ghostbuster characters.

Even better than Simpsonized characters is the Wrong Side of Art, a sight chock full of high-res scans of movie posters, specializing in ones from Horror, sci-fi, exploitation, cult, trash, B-movie posters. I linked to the gallery instead of the home page because some of the posters are NSFW and there are a few on the front page right now.

Men With Hats

Mad Men

In just under 2 months Season 3 of TDTVS2 starts and I can hardly wait. Might do like we did for LOST last year and watch one episode a night leading up to the season premiere. There are 26 episodes, so we should start one-a-days on Tuesday July 21st. That would mean we would watch the last show of Season 2 on the Sunday night of the Season 3 opener.

Unlike TDTVS there isn’t a group of coworkers who meet up the next day and discuss last night’s Mad Men episode, so I’m not sure I will watch it live. Probably download the torrent to avoid the commercials and watch it on Monday night.
