Did you just hear a wail of pain across America?<\/p>\n
I just read that they cancelled Outsourced<\/i>, one of my very favorite new shows. Why? WHY?????<\/p>\n
They also cancelled Traffic Light<\/i>, which I enjoyed but I didn’t wail in pain. The Event<\/i> and Chase<\/i> are also gone, but I am not too sad. I was mostly watching those because there was nothing else to watch.<\/p>\n
I wonder if they’ve cancelled Hawaii Five-O<\/i>. I wanted to like that one. I tried to like that one. I couldn’t watch it. It was so boooooring. How can a cop show be so boring?<\/p>\n
Despite all the cancellations, I’m just glad most networks are getting back to scripted shows. I like certain reality shows (Top Chef, Project Runway, Pregnant in Heels<\/i>) but most of them don’t blow up my skirt.<\/p>\n
And now I have to go tell Erik a Harry Potter story. I wish he had enough concentration to listen to me read the book, but he was bored by page 2. All those owls at the Dursley’s place weren’t that impressive I guess. I am sort of sad that he plays Lego Harry Potter because now he thinks that’s the real Harry Potter. He won’t get to experience the joy of being introduced to Harry through the books. I’ll never forget the day I was at a little bookshop\/coffeeshop\/New Agey shop in Astoria and I found this hardcover book with a kid flying on a broomstick. I almost didn’t buy it because it was $12 and who spends $12 on a kid’s book when they have access to a high school librarian who consistently sets aside piles of books you might find interesting? I read that bad boy in less than 2 hours, then ran up the stairs and thrust it into my roommate’s hands. She was a middle school librarian and she’d already read it. In fact, a few weeks later she dressed as HP for Halloween and no one knew who she was. Can you imagine a time when you had to create your own HP costume and no one even knew who you were? Well of course you can, but isn’t that a sad, sad world?<\/p>\n
I am glad they haven’t turned HP into little kid reading leveled books, but I sure wish I had one right about now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
