March 1st [
Smallville]
I was not aware that Speedy was added to the ranks of this season. Yes, I'm catching up with another CW show.

In it's ninth season,
Smallville may finally be becoming something I'm not a little ashamed to admit I watch. They're finally embracing the superhero aspects of the DCU and letting the Clark/Lois romance blossom. The writers have begun making a little bit of sense of the unexplained messes created during earlier seasons, while cherry picking some of the best elements of the Supes canon to mix in. I think a great example is the inclusion of Mia (
Speedy #2), which never would have happened a few years ago. She begins as a teenage prostitute, after all, and they didn't shy away from it too much. Later in the season we get another big superhero
team-up on the show (I'll probably have something to say about it once I see it), which led to the news this week that there will be a
tenth season. I wouldn't have been particularly happy to type that two years ago.
March 2nd [
Big Love]
"These Boots Are Made For Walking" and....ALBY?!?!?! Also, that had to be the most intense game of tetherball ever filmed.
March 6th [
Parenthood]
So nice to see Lauren Graham on tv again, as she is as smokin' hot and talented as ever.
I guess the reputation of the cast made me want to check out this new dramedy, because it's not something I'd immediately gravitate to. It was a good pilot. I'm a little worried that it may become more drama than comedy, but as long as they maintain the balance, this may be a new addition to my weekly roster. But I really only tweeted about it because I wanted to post a pic of Lauren Graham.
Mission accomplished.
