The only point I'm making is that the actress, the lovely Christina Hendricks, is naturally curvaceous, deliciously bodacious and few women can pull them curves off, but she does. I agree her bum was looking rather large on Sunday...and I ADORED her storyline.J.

Same happened to shows like <I>Battlestar Galactica</I>.<BR/><BR/>Shows like <I>Mad Men</I> air on Australia's version of "cable" called Foxtel, and not that many people actually have it. It's not like America where everyone seemingly has cable and people who don't are seen as lesser beings (perhaps I exaggerate there, but from my reasons that does sorta seem like the case). In fact a lot of shows like <I>Sex and the City</I> and other cable shows from America air on regular free-to-air tv down here.<BR/><BR/>I only saw <I>Dexter</I> because it was released on DVD actually, which is where I'll catch <I>Mad Men</I> and maybe <I>30 Rock</I> if I can be bothered.<BR/><BR/>I have no idea how/when <I>Pushing Daisies</I> will be airing though.Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08194113062830373898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-25324840631783638822008-09-17T07:32:00.000-04:002008-09-17T07:32:00.000-04:00glenn don't you have tivo or dvr or any of those n...glenn don't you have tivo or dvr or any of those neato systems that change one's television life 4ever?NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-35137515756071711792008-09-17T04:06:00.000-04:002008-09-17T04:06:00.000-04:00I don't watch Mad Men, Pushing Daisies and 30 Rock...I don't watch <I>Mad Men</I>, <I>Pushing Daisies</I> and <I>30 Rock</I> (I only have access to <I>30 Rock</I>, yet it airs so freakin' late here that I forget it for weeks on end and then gave up) so I'm hoping <I>Dexter</I> wins everything it's up for, especially Michael C Hall for Best Actor.Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08194113062830373898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-44303348929245690452008-09-17T01:00:00.000-04:002008-09-17T01:00:00.000-04:00I certainly wouldn't mind all ten of those wishes....I certainly wouldn't mind all ten of those wishes.

Suck it, Lovely Laura Linney lovers (well, only for a second-- I do heart her as well) but Dench owns that category and that trophy should be hers. I was surprised to find out that she was playing a nice and unimposing character in <I>Cranford</I> since we are all so used to seeing her play horribly intimidating and divariffic characters (i.e. <I>Notes on a Scandal</I>, <I>Mrs. Henderson Presents</I> and <I>Her Majesty, Mrs. Brown</I>).
