18 September 2007

The reviewing continues this month with two NYMF shows: tonight's Austentatious and next week's Love Sucks. I've also scheduled myself to see two in October, which could run to three if nobody else on the staff picks up Blood Brothers. (I'm trying to be a good girl and stay away, which is tough, as it's got Nosedive and Vampire Cowboys folks working on it and I'm a big fan of the VCs after only one show. If those guys and Les Freres Corbusier were ever to collaborate, the resulting production would be a hedonistic delight for genre geeks like me.)

I may have to sneak in a nap before Austentatious, though. I bit the feduciary bullet and bought Season One of Heroes last night - no more waiting for the Netflix delivery! It also means, though, that I can watch episodes whenever I want. Last night I only meant to watch one, but one turned into two, and after two, I had to convince myself that staying up all night to watch more episodes would be a bad, bad idea. Six and a half hours of sleep (minus the times I got up to silence the cats, etc.) is taking its toll, and it's a pretty expensive one at that.

I'm totally with you on "Heroes"! I was also late to the party, but I have been whizzing through Season One on DVD--trying to catch up before the next season begins! And like you, I find it incredibly addictive: last night I planned to watch one episode, which turned into two ... It's really quite theatrical (no wonder we like it!), and I've loved the theater-people cameos: Stephen Spinella, Kevin Chamberlin, etc. Happy watching, and hope to see you soon--if we can ever rip ourselves away from our TVs. :)
