The Week in Entertainment

DVD: Slings & Arrows. This is wonderful, a funny and poignant and above all intelligent Canadian series. Paul Gross heads an extraordinary cast in a story about actors - and life. Highly recommended. You won't regret it.

TV: Pushing Daisies. Still worth it, though I wish they'd get over Ned's accidental killing of Chuck's father already. The second half of Nova's "Absolute Cold".

Read: Finished Ayala's Angel which is one of Trollope's lesser known novels; I enjoyed it. Also The Pregnant Man, also by Deirdre Barrett - seven case studies of hypnotherapy. Excellently written, like seven short stories.
