Thank goodness there’s not a new Pushing Daisies on tonight because I’m not going to be home. I’ll be watching the supposedly fraktastic JUNO starring my tween girl crush Ellen Page. I absolove Ellen Page and thought she was the most kick ass thing in Hard Candy. Go girl…

Anyway, that’s not the point of my post. I have to quickly rant that I’m ready to cut up a mother at the cable company. Comcast is effin me and hard. About a week or two ago I realized that randomly some of the channels we have would be all stuttery and pixelated. It’s been getting progressively worse and this week it’s really messed with my TV viewing.

Both parts 2 and 3 from TIN MAN were unwatchable. Couldn’t watch. Recorded them and they’re nothing but big blocks of crap on my flatscreen. Essentially every channel except the network HD channels are unwatchable as of 7 p.m. last night.

They’re coming out tomorrow to look at our lines, our connections, and probably swap out our DVR box. All fine and well except for a couple things. It’s already fucked me on Tin Man and probably my chances of watching Project Runway tonight. Not to mention all of ABC Family’s amazing 25 Days of Christmas programming. Add to that the fact that if they swap out my DVR box, I lose everything saved on it currently.

I’m just so damn happy with Comcast.

I didn’t nearly see enough television last night but in this case, it was for good reason. We had Christmas Surprise Night with our friends Kathy and Andy which involved a baby wearing a Mother Sucker shirt and a blonde mullet wig. Good cheer for all! But that meant I wasn’t home until after 10 last night so the catch up didn’t happen as much as I wanted it to.

I did manage to catch most of THE AMAZING RACE and I might have to report that it put me on Santa’s naughy list. I sat there waiting begging for two disasters the whole episode. I wanted that twunt blonde in the back seat to get plowed by the oncoming bus (reminiscent of last week’s Chuck or the Bionic Woman pilot) finally putting her family and friends out of the misery they feel knowing she’s alive.

The second fateful disaster I was hoping for was the ever looming hernia! God, I just wanted him to fall off those stilts like I want presents under the tree. With all my might I crossed my fingers and burned some sage that Ron would fall from on high and that sucker would bust out of his side. Well, he keeps talking about it like he’s ready to give birth any episode so let’s get it over with all ready. If it doesn’t erupt before they’re Philimated I will not be well.

Last night was the premiere of Sci-Fi’s TIN MAN and I only saw about 30 minutes of it before I had to force myself to go to bed for fear of hallucinations much worse than DG’s having. Did you guys like it? I hope to catch up tonight but I have to tell you all now that there is no chance in hell of me watching all 6 hours in an orderly fashion. It’s going to be the end of the weekend before I finish this epic miniseries.
