So I'm sitting here watching my second dose of Masterpiece Theater today (earlier today I saw the re-airing of "Northanger Abbey" which was, as expected, fantastic) and right now I'm watching "Mansfield Park" and checking out the schedule of upcoming screenings including the best of the Austen adaptation, "Pride and Prejudice" with part one to start on February 10th.

Also worth noting there's a version of "Emma" coming up in a few weeks starring none other than the gorgeous Kate Beckinsale and the brilliant Samantha Morton - well worth adding to the calendar on March 23rd. To be honest, I can't believe I've never actively searched for Masterpiece Theater. I can't believe it - it's brilliant! The entire schedule and a couple of juicy tidbits of information at the official website.

And while I was looking for a few pictures, I discovered We Make History. So far, I've spent 20 minutes digging through the links - particularly the Sense and Sensibility link which features a whole load of wonderful looking patterns. I feel another project coming on...


Or maybe this...

I was never a big wrestling fan (still am not) but American Gladiators was a show I used to watch with my mom and my sister. It was cool watching "normal" people take on these godlike creatures they called gladiators and we always had fun trying to guess who would win.

The show went off the air years ago and though I've never given it much thought, when I saw this story about the show making a comeback on NBC, I have to admit I got pretty excited and yeah, if it's on when I'm home, you'd better believe I'll be checking it out!

Oh jeez, I just had another though. I still don't know who won the last season of "Hell's Kitchen". Better go check that out...

THIS is what TV is coming to.

SAD.
