I'm now addicted to watching HDNet

So I haven't been online a lot lately. We now have HD and we discovered HDNet, which features concerts by many artists I absolutely adore. Just finished watching Gwen Stefani in concert. Later there's Todd Rundgren. Also featured this monthThe Moody Blues, Melissa Etheridge, Coldplay, U2, Deathcab for Cutie, Wynton Marsalis, Dave Matthews, Placido Domingo, The Hives, Rusted Root, Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty and Daughtry (he's the rocker who got his start on American Idol - who would have thought an American Idol contestant would turn out to be interesting to me) and more next month I'm sure. I'm in music heaven.

I've pretty much given up on network television. Tonight is the return of 24, though. I am rather fond of that show. It's weird because we skipped a year due to the writer's strike so I thought I lost interest but really, it just wasn't there. Didn't watch the movie they aired a while back that supposedly fills in the blanks about where Jack Bauer has been all this time since we last saw him. Oh well, here's hoping it's something I can get into again. It hasn't disappointed me before.

At the end of the month Life on Mars returns! As for LOCI, because USA is gigantic piece of crap, we still don't know. That was one short honeymoon for LOCI on that station wasn't it?

Yeah, I know, get over it. Sorry, I can't help it. They're hindering my obsession and it's annoying. Well, off to see what I've been missing this weekend online.

Since LOCI gave USA the best numbers in a drama they had ever had you would think they WOULD treat them with a little more respect.

Every time I pull up a television google some idiot is giving a date its going to start I think the last was Feb. 5 I'll believe it when its on the air. I don't car if USA announces it tomorrow, they announced it in October and see what that meant.

24 premieres here tonight, too, but I gave up on it a couple of years ago.
