Back when my pathetic existence was even more pathetic--i.e., when I was in grad school--I'd tape a week's worth of TV shows that I liked and then watch them on Saturday night. I always saved NE for last (yes, I'm a save-the-best-for-last kind of person).Naryahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05369280617520806983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6881724.post-79210291983598552082007-02-05T18:15:00.000-05:002007-02-05T18:15:00.000-05:00I *heart* Chris in the Morning.

That would be fun.<br /><br />And Ann, I think I know what you mean about "Sex" not having anything to hold onto (so to speak; my, that came out dirty). At one point, when I was watching DVD's of the earlier seasons a couple years ago, it felt sort of like eating too much cotton candy all at once.kStylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06722899143558375319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6881724.post-59438181891687218382007-02-05T15:05:00.001-05:002007-02-05T15:05:00.001-05:00And yes, I think they cut out a lot of the sex and...And yes, I think they cut out a lot of the sex and profanity for network TV.

It was a lot of anecdotes strung haphazardly together, which I enjoyed on occasion, but on the whole...meh.<br /><br />I had no problem with the shallowness of the women (and men). Sometimes I enjoy superficial characters--they can be highly entertaining. But it was the shallowness of the <i>plot</i> that ultimately doomed the series for me. There was nothing for my mind to grab onto; the story slipped into my brain and slipped back out again without making any sort of impression. I prefer some friction in my TV shows.<br /><br />I have not yet seen, but am nonetheless fascinated by, "Numb3rs," because Dr. Joel Fleischman "Northern Exposure" is in it, and I *heart* Dr. Joel.<br /><br />For that matter, Chris in the Morning--whom I do <i>not</i> *heart*--was on "Sex and the City" for more than a few episodes. Hey, we could play six degrees of "Northern Exposure"!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6881724.post-15445300707204546732007-02-04T21:41:00.000-05:002007-02-04T21:41:00.000-05:00What you say makes sense.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the sex has been excised for the current channel. (Like I also never figured out why they were showing "The Sopranos" on whatever other cable channel is showing it. I've seen about 85% of those shows, and there isn't any good way to cut out the language, nudity, and violence.)<br /><br />Based on your commentary, I'm not going to rush to see SatC.Naryahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05369280617520806983noreply@blogger.com
