I started watching Avatar on Nick toons or some such channel late one night last week. I didn't think I would like it, since that's not the type of animation I really enjoy, but I got sucked in by the story. Thankfully Netflix has the first set on instant play. I started DVRing episodes from TV, but realized I would have a hard time putting them in order so I just put the other however many disks into my queue. Now I'm all excited about the movie.

(Thought that just popped into my head: Hmmm. I wonder if they have Bubblegum Crisis in the play now Netflix thing? I watched it ages ago and loved it.)

There are probably a ton of other things like Avatar that I should be watching or reading but either don't know about or don't think I would like. I'm open to suggestions.

Also, this week's Eureka. WTH? What's up with the recap montage episode? Was she really pregnant and they ran out of time to film a whole episode so they just threw this together? I feel cheated.

We just found out that Eureka hasn't been recording on our Comcast DVR for most of this season! We got the first two eps, but then there's a month-long gap at least, and we have the most recent ep. And our On Demand only goes back like 3 eps. :(

Oh no! Have you looked at hulu? Maybe they have the ones you're missing.

I will ask husband to look (he watches it more than I do), but he has a "thing" about watching TV on his computers. However, maybe he can do that while he's fishing on the desktop - laptop open with Eureka! *goes to look at Hulu*

Aaaand Hulu has only the last 4 eps. Fail. :(

Okay, now I see the problem. Season 3 was split. The most recent stuff began with Episode 9 of Season 3. So we may not be as hosed as we thought (but I think we're still missing Ep 11).

What's the story with your icon? Is there another Avatar?

Haha, no, that's from an HBO series called Carnivale. Really good, extremely freaky. The main character wrote that in his blood near the end of Season 1 (it only lasted 2 seasons). Hard to describe what was going on at the time, but it was about an epic battle of good vs. evil played out in the Great Depression. With bonus Clancy Brown as a preacher!

Ahhh. I keep meaning to watch that, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
