Corrupt the internet



Last night's season premier of 24 delivered on every possible level. Save the one rather embarassing line of dialogue that I'm using as today's rant title, I loved every minute of it. In fact, I'd say this was the strongest season opener since the very first episode. And it's not over yet: another two hours air tonight! After this much condensed 24 goodness, it's going to be murder shifting to the one-hour-a-week format for the remaining 20 episodes. Oh well! All the more time to speculate wildly about what will happen next.



Browsing around the net, I notice that a lot of other people are also referring to 24 as the "Jack Bauer Power Hour." I guess they didn't get it from me, but I swear, I came up with that title all on my own. I wonder how many other people could have done the same? Probably a lot.

Good news for 24 enthusiasts... the Jack Bauer Power Hour returns with a two-hour premier on Sunday, a two-hour follow-up on Monday, and then a new episode every single Monday until it is all over. I am pumped for more hacksaw-ing, cougar-evading, hand-removing action! And I must admit, as bitter as I am about Fox's compulsive cancelling of all of my favourite shows, I'm happy to see them giving this season of 24 such a favourable launch. I hope it will still be good enough to deserve it!



Hmm! How did this happen? I have no idea, really.

The fanart gallery has been updated again to include a couple of pieces that I somehow missed on Monday. If I told you your art was going in the gallery and it is not in there now, send me an email to let me know! It is an oversight, not a slight or sign of spite. I try to remember everyone, but I swear, I've got a memory like a horse.



Lately, I can't stop listening to Jellyfish. They play this jaw-droppingly good, keyboard heavy power pop that sounds sort of like a hybrid of 10cc, Queen and Billy Joel. Based entirely on sound and speculation, I'd wager they were also a major influence on the work of bands like Ben Folds Five. Sadly, Jellyfish had already broken up by the time I turned 11, but I definitely recommend scouting out one of their albums and reliving the maaaaagic.
