Jun. 5th, 2006 07:11 am80 days until season two arrives in my mailbox. Waah. Although I will say, it's novel to be watching a tv show that is in no danger of being cancelled. And I did manage to trade a cable I wasn't using for access to a tv on Tuesday nights where I can watch House re-runs, although I have to go all the way to the bottom of Manhattan for it.
Whenever I see Jonathan Rhys Meyers' name, I always confuse him with the guy from Indiana Jones, so I was very confused to hear he'd be playing young Henry the Eighth in the new Showtime series: whatever else Gimli might be, he's not young. It looks like a good series: Jeremy Northam is playing More (which is much better than Jeremy Bentham playing anything). I wonder how long until it gets to netflix.
Those crazy brits are at it again: Andrew Lloyd Webber is apparently doing a reality tv show to find someone to star in The Sound of Music. EEK!
They've announced more cast and tickets have gone on sale for the Grace O'Malley musical. Pirates! Step dancing! Irish chicks! Chicks in pirate clothes!!!
They've delayed Prince Caspian until summer '08. WAAAH! That means it'll be 2009 at least until we get the best of the Narnia books.
I can't even begin to imagine what would cause Sheryl Crow to dump Lance for John Stamos. I actually spent a considerable amount of running thinking time recently pondering what could be better than that much VO2 capacity - and came to the conclusion that there is clearly something about Stamos I'm missing. He was on Full House - but he gets Mystique and woos someone away from Lance???
Nuclear, schmucular: I think the scariest thing I've heard lately was the quote from Britney Spears after she had trouble getting through a crowd, "This is why I need a gun." No, that's why people like you should never be allowed to have guns. Or children.
Two things about Ian McKellen: (a) I didn't know he was gay! and (b) his comment that the Church should like the DaVinci code bc they are all about the marriage thing was just plain weird. that being said, when I heard he was going to play Teabing and that Maturin was going to play the monk, I was tempted to go see it anyhow.
The LGBT center seems to be doing lots of really neat programming lately. They had Douglas Sills and a few other similar caliber folks in to sing songs by a random gay composer recently, and tonight they are having a performance of Broadway showtunes sung with the genders all bent: two guys singing "We Kiss in a Shadow" from King and I or a chick singing "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" from My Fair Lady. Doesn't that sound like fun? If I didn't have all sorts of fun times planned for the rest of the week and consequently need to do laundry tonight, I'd be all over that.
I think that's enough links for now.
