I used to be a TV fan, even an addict. I had certain shows I had to see or my life would be OVER. I suppose it began back in high school with my "Days of Our Lives" problem. I watched it all through college, even capturing roommate addicts in the process.

That's why I still love my VCR.

Now, though, I find less and less that I HAVE to see. In fact, I'm often disappointed at the lack of anything good on television. Even the shows I do like seem to be in repeat status much of the time. What is up with LOST? I do miss Sydney Bristow as well, but now that Jennifer Garner has had her baby, and the show had already jumped the shark, I am not surprised at it's being canceled. I wonder if the ending will be remotely satisfying.

I just hate how they have to take a perfectly good show and mess with it. Somehow they figure the characters have to hook up. (hello, Moonlighting and Northern Exposure want their storylines back) come to think of it, no they don't. Don't DO THAT. LEAVE IT ALONE. We liked the tough, pissed off Sydney. We liked her avenging spirit. I personally thought that Vaughan guy was never good enough for her. What a wuss. And then they had to go and get rid of every friend she ever had, and co-workers too. A girl can get by without her beau, but take away her peeps and you might as well put her in a rubber room. Oh, wait, I think they did that too.

I fear the same end will come to LOST. Now that JJ is off making MI:3. Another item that falls under my Tom Cruise boycott list. (that is a whole 'nother post)

It's getting thin out there. I watch a lot of TLC and Food Network. I take comfort in the fact that Season 4 of Northern Exposure comes out next week.
