    Actually, I am very excited about Tin Man. I have been a fan of all aspects of Oz since I was a kid. When I was in Kindergarten, I watched the 1939 Judy Garland Wizard of Oz, literally, every day for a year. It firmly holds the spot of Fvaorite Movie of All Time for me. I also enjoyed Return to Oz with Fairuza Balk. The Wiz is the only one I didn't enjoy.

    I love the original L. Frank Baum books(I have actually been listening to audio versions of them at work again as of late, partly in anticipation of the airing of Tin man tomorrow), as well as the reimaginings like Wicked!

    I am a big fan of reimaginings of old stories, and I think, from previews and stuff that I have read, that Tin Man looks very very promising.

    Yeah, I think I might have to see that. I too am a fan of all/most things OZ. I've seeen all the movies including the pre '39 silent films and read all the books.

    Last night they played Tin Man back to back, so you can probably catch late, late night if you want! Just an FYI. I recorded last night's and haven't watched it yet except the first 5 minutes.

    I am absolutely loving Tin Man.

    Spoiler:
    I really enjoyed the scene in tonights episode where Azkadeliah and DG are young and in the forest getting apples.

    Azkadeliah: We shouldn't be in the forest alone, there are wild beasts.

    DG: Did you say...what kind of beasts were in the forest?

    Azkadeliah: Oh, lions.....and tigers.......and....

    <they see a bear>

    DG: Oh my!


    That cracked me up. I love the little nods to the original movie like that.

    Thank you.

    I always loved how they spoke so poetic while throwing "cocksucker" in every other word.

    The Shield is awesome.

    It makes me want to watch some films starring Forrest Whitteker.

    That goes without saying.

    We've been realling getting into the VH1 's "Greatist Soungs of the '90's" this week at work. It blew my shit when a 19 year (black :p) co worker said that she loved not only loved "Freak On A Leash" but that she was a big time Korn fan. I was all like "Damn, and I thought you were cool before."

    And ftr, I know there's a lot of Korn haters out there and I don't give a rat's ass. Complaint Department >>>>10019 miles that way.

    I don't have a problem with KOrn.

    It's preferable to the Limp Bizkit songs, if you could even characterize them as such, which K-Rock used to play in a seemingly endless loop.

    Ruthful, Do you know if Pushing Daisies is coming back soon with new episodes or did they finally run out? I think it's been repeats for the past couple of weeks.
    And I heard it got nominated for some award so hopefully it'll get picked up for next year.

    Via Wiki:

    Production History

    The series was greenlit and given a 13-episode order by ABC on May 11, 2007.[3] On October 23, 2007, the show received a full season order.[4] However, scripts for only nine episodes were completed before the start of the 2007 Writers Guild of America strike,[5] Bryan Fuller reportedly made last-minute changes to the ninth episode to allow it to serve as a season finale.[6]

    According to The Futon Critic, if/when the strike is resolved, the remaining 13 episodes, if they have been completed, will begin airing in the spring of 2008.[7]
    As of now it looks like it won't return until the WGA strike is resolved.

    So I guess the last episode they had in the can aired two weeks ago.

    Pushing Daisies was nominated for a Golden Globe for best comedy.

    Although I love the show and hope that the nomination will draw viewers in, there's no way it should be nominated for best comedy over a show like The Office.

    Just no way.

    I must say I'm impressed that Big Love got a Golden Globe nod. If anyone has actually ever watched it, the acting is REALLY good. The writing is so good it makes the viewers actually feel compassionate about polygamy...that's not to say it makes us want to BE polygamists, it just lets us feel for them, as twisted as the concept is.

    I never really liked Chloe Sevigny before the show, and now I love her. She's an awesome actress.

    I've always liked Chloe Sevigny, but that probably has more to do with her willingness to get down and do the nasty in front of a well-paid Hollywood film crew. That's what I call "artistic integrity."

    Seriously though, is this show really good? One of its chief writers is that fruitcake Lawrence O'Donnell, correct? Wasn't he on the staff of that Sominex-like program known as The West Wing?

    I love this show. I've been a big time fan of both Sevigny and Bill Paxton for years. And after watching it I've determined that I would NEver want to be a plygamist. That's just too much damn work!
