ALF?
I really don't watch tv at the right times, I guess. Remember when everyone was talking about "the Taster's Choice couple" years and years ago? I never saw any of them.

In a wonderful bit of popular culture synchronicity...
The guy who was in the Taster's Choice ads is Anthony Stewart Head, who is now Giles on Buffy.

Since Giles is not dead, I'd say he's just not currently on the show, but not completely written out.
Ms. Calender -- WAS.
Oz -- probably WAS.

Reposted on: 7.2.09 0329.03 | Is the new Ripper show already on the BBC? If so, how do I get the BBC?
I saw that Alf commercial, too, which is to say I fast-forwarded through it while watching Buffy... man, Buffy was awesome last night. Anyway, all those commercial just annoy the shit out of me.
Did anyone see 24 last night? I've seen, like, 4 hours of it and I don't think I've seen a new show since November, but they're only up to like 10am... they still have 14 episodes to go. I thought I was really running behind, but maybe I'm not. I'm hoping FX will (at some point) run a bunch of the shows in sequence, like the ABC Cable channel did with Alias a few weeks ago (which i misses b/c I suck). | Excalibur05

Reposted on: 7.2.09 0959.04 | As far as I know, the only way you can get the BBC in the US is on a dish.
That having been said, I'm almost positive that Ripper won't premier until this fall. |
