- Showtime has renewed Weeds for a second season, and is allegedly in talks to pick up the cancelled classic Arrested Development. Awesome.
- Stern was godlike on the Daily Show last night. Maybe it was because he towered over Stewart, maybe it was the air of triumph in Stern's swagger- I don't know. Indeed a great interview, and I totally like Howard's new black power / gonzo Sirius logo. Godlike.
- Takk, the new album by Icelandic rock heroes Sigur Ros is the best album for driving on snowy evenings, ethereal and calming- especially if you are driving on the 190 or 90. Trust me.
- The movie preview review: the Texas Chainsaw Massacre ripoff coming out on X-Mas day looks like a TCM ripoff whose possible box office success on X-Mas day bodes poorly for our nation's collective mental state; the Vince Vaughn Jennifer Aniston comedy about breaking up holds no interest for me (because I've invested so much in their real life happiness! Not.); and X-Men 3 looks big and ludicrus and heavy on the explosions. Whether it will be any good without writer/director Bryan Singer (whose instead doing Superman Returns) cannot be divined from the preview.
- King Kong is awesome. Too long, and probably too much of a good thing, but awesome nonetheless.
