first off, i just re-watched the 7:00 am - 8:00 am episode of 24 with the roommate and an obvious question arose on the second viewing that i hadn't even thought of the first time -- how the hell did CTU get Jane Saunders out of the library bathroom??? she was drugged (Jack woke her up in their "secret trailer" outside the university) and would have to have been dragged out by one or two agents through the fucking library. and that library looked small, so people would have noticed. hmm.
second, can we just put Friends to sleep already? i mean, come on. did we have a season this year? i don't think we have. we just waited around while they figured out how to end it. the season started out pretty badly so i think the producers just nixed the idea of salvaging the rest of the season and just focused on figuring out the ending. sadly, this is the lamest handling of a serie's final season that i can think of. and check out the "finale" next week:
wednesday
8 - 9 pm: Friends episode (new episode? not sure. how long will it take for Ross and Rachel to say goodbye to each other?)
9 - 10 pm: Dateline Special: Friends Interviews
thursday
8 - 9 pm: Friends/Clips Special (we need this to remind ourselves how good they were. emphasis on the words "remind" and "were".)
9 - 10 pm: Friends Finale
and probably a Tonight Show Special later on that night.
wtf??? even the drunken Cheers finale had more class than this lousy piece of crap. anyone felt like they were just killing time? i'm not even sure they knew but that's how it looked to me. way to end one of the most beloved series (until two years ago when they started prompting every season as the final one. shoulda stopped it last year when you still had gas in the tank, boys. they went from a couple of lazy episodes to outrageously lousy scripts, right down to running into the ground an almost non-existent last season (thank god for that, though, because i couldn't take any more of those seriously lame episodes). the show is so boring and annoying by now, add to that the touting that NBC gave for the "final season", "last three episodes", that it's so anti-climactic now. nothing can beat the frustration this show's built up in its fans. right now, i only want to get it over with so we can move on and be Friends-less. that'll be nice.
