Working on small details is almost always irritating. It's tedious, boring, annoying, and it's usually literally a pain in the neck. So, while i was finishing up some drawstring bags for my online store, I took a break. I turned on the TV and. . .watching television is almost always irritating. It's tedious, boring, annoying, and it's usually literally a pain in the ass.
I'm not a huge TV person. Actually, I'm like two truffles away from obese, so i AM huge. But I don't like a lot of TV shows. The ones I watch on purpose can be counted on 1 hand: House, Criminal Minds, How I Met Your Mother, and Bones. Yeah, I have a weakness for overdone dramas and medium-crappy comedy. That's why I prefer movies over television. Same stupidity, minus the commercial breaks. Or maybe it's just that the shows I liked best kept getting canceled. Take Titus, for example. I LOVED that show. We all know people like that. Honestly, Stacy Keach made that show. It would never have been awesome without him. And then it was gone. Which sucks. Cuz, like I said. LOVED it.
But here's the point I was trying to come to: When I was growing up (Titus, for instance, was on the air when i was in junior hgh) I didn't give a crap about the actors' names. I didn't know that Max from Dark Angel was played by a woman named Jessica Alba. I didn't know who Stacy Keach and Cynthia Watros were. And now, looking back, I see those same actors EVERYWHERE. Alyson Hannigan (HIMYM) and David Boreanaz (BONES) both acted in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. I HATED those shows growing up. I AVOIDED them like the freaking plague. But it's been awhile. And now I have to admit, they're good (the actors, not the shows). And I guess what I mean to say is, I should pay more attention to the names of the actors in TV shows and movies I like. Just in case.
By the way, did you know Stacy Keach was in the movie American History X? Cuz I didn't. And I really liked that movie. I've seen it like four times. I guess I'm just not a very observant person.
