More Quotes

Here are some more Sam-centric LV quotes, care of Ness. :)

Sam- Ed's the master mind behind this whole thing and Nessa and Delinda are his evil little minions. See, I never trusted those supermodel bitches, they've been planning this for weeks! Months!

Sam- I never trusted her and that English accent. That's not her accent!

Sam- We have a problem, we are completely overbooked and then your boy Danny just gave away our last two suites to the relatively hot cop and the bitchy mortician from Boston.

Sam- Wha's happening to you? I say trashy and this is the best you can do?
Mary-Sorry they cancelled my Whores R Us card.

Delinda- Why is she so freaked out about a billionaire husband who is smokin hot, sexy and sweet?
Nessa- He's the one guy alive who can do to her what she does to everyone else.
Delinda- You mean manipulate, scam, scheme and seduce?

Dvds

Oh I forgot to mention, I ordered seasons 2 and 3 of Grey's Anatomy and Heroes season 1 on dvd from Amazon yesterday. They dropped in price, so I thought I better order them while they are so low! I've decided it's probably worth paying more money in one go to get dvds from the US, than waiting for them to go on sale here. One reason is that I have less reason (hopefully) to bitch about a lack of some special features. They should arrive near the end of September. I can't wait!

The next lot will be Studio 60 and Brothers and Sisters, which will arrive in October/early Nov.

and then NCIS and 90210 in December. -Just in time for chrissy!

Quotes

I blame Vanessa. She's watching Las Vegas dvds at the moment, and so quotes are stuck in her head...and then once repeated are stuck in mine. So here are some of the quotes I took from season 2.

Michael Buble: "Mary you don't have to yell! Mimes can hear, they just can't talk."

Ed: "Are they on drugs?"

Ed: "Would you believe she has a genius IQ?"
Sam: "No"

Nessa: "I know it won't be the same without Mary!"
Sam: "No it won’t!"
Nessa: "I'm sorry did you just get misty-eyed?!"
Sam: "NO!"

Delinda: "I mean I have a great....everything! I could be the new face! New Face!"

Sam: "I would not like to be in your brain."
Delinda: "It does kinda give me a headache sometimes."

Ed: "Well why can't you jog during the day?"
Delinda: "Cause it's 115 during the day! I think I think I have a better chance of surviving someone trying to pick me up, than jogging in the heat of the Vegas day!"

Delinda: "But he was definitely creepy!"
Ed: "Creepy how?"
Delinda: "Creepy creepy creepy!"

Nessa: "Your spouse's name is blacked out!"

Can there be too much tv?

After the revelation that I could unlock my expensive dvd/vcr/dvd recorder to play any region dvds I wished it too, I was faced with the problem of having too many choices about my dvd purchases. So I have tried to be sensible. I have plotted out in an excell spreadsheet, the prices both US and Australian, as well as the release dates. In many cases the US ones are prefereable as they have more special features than the Aussie ones. Also the prices includ the exchange rate, and in some cases probably the shipping charge as well. There are also some that are not avaliable here anyways...which means I HAVE to get them from the US, if I want to get them at all. So now the hard part is trying to decide which I want to get first. -should I got by release date, or by place in my overal list of favorite shows? Then of course there is the whole limited funds thing..and the fact that there are many dvds coming out here that I want to get as well.

I think I'll see how my work goes, if I get shifts next week and the week after, I might consider ordering 3 dvd sets instead of just 2...or 4 instead of 3 etc. I really want to start with Grey's Anatomy season's 2 and 3...but I should also work out whether NCIS comes out around the same time, and also Studio 60... buying them at the same time will save on postage...or maybe breaking it up into smaller groups, so I don't have to wait as long. -This is something that is going to bug me for a little while...
Damm options! It was so much easier when I had less to choose from!

The Perfect Cast

Since a lot of my fave shows have ended recently, and therefore many of my fave actors are no longer on tv, I have decided to create an imaginary series...no idea what the plot or anything would be, but this is my dream cast...so far.

Lauren Graham
Matthew Perry
Jill Hennessy
Joshua Jackson
and possibly Lisa Kudrow - though in retrospect, I'm not sure we could have both Matthew AND Lisa in the one series...maybe she could just be a sometimes character.
and more...we need a blonde perhaps.

-I'm sure there could be guest stars from maybe some still-running series.

...Ness and I were thinking we need to make sure to include the 3 or 4 'staples' of any tv series. -The character in a box ep, the hostage/kidnap situation, a wedding, and someone has a baby.

New Obsession

So it's now August, I have seen the finale of every single show I watch on tv. -I am now going through my tv series on dvd filling in my time. I am almost near the end of Friends, and have just started up on Dawson's Creek again.
I am very excited about September/October. I can't wait for new episodes of the shows I love (that are returning) and am willing to give a few new shows a chance. Even though some of my beloved shows will be sadly missed, I have plently of shows to keep me entertained.
In particular, my new full blown obsession with Grey's Anatomy. It's the Buffy after my Charmed, there is always another show I love waiting in the wings to take over in place of my previous obsessions. Season 3 of Grey's was great, and am I looking forward to the Addison spin-off. I bought season 1 on dvd, and am dying to get season 2 on dvd, but I will not allow myself to spend more than $50 (my limits gone up from $40) on a dvd. Dammed principles!

The calendars for 2008 are coming out soon, and I think I am going to end up with 5 different ones just for my bedroom! There are SO many ones that I'm gonna want! It's going to be a tough choice.


Ooooo. I should also mention my excitment for the fact that Australia is FINALLY getting TIVO! Tivo is awesome. I know that I may not end up getting it...but it's the point that I COULD. Anyhoo very excited.

Also the Emmy's are coming up soon too! yay!
