The Week in Entertainment

DVD: A friend lent me Psych and I have to say it's very amusing. House - the end of season 4, which I managed to miss after the strike kind of kerfuffled things. And oh my. What a fabulous ending. This year should be great, if they keep their promise not to ignore what happened. Speaking of which...

TV: House (had to find ep 1 on line since my dvr didn't actually record it) And wow. Okay, last season ended with that brilliant 2-parter - and this year is picking up where they left off. Wilson was changed by Amber, and if he really leaves House it could shatter him. "We're not friends any more. I'm not sure we ever were." Maybe not, but Wilson was the only thing House had. And then ep 2. Nice. I hope Lucas won't be around a whole lot, but House trying to replace Wilson, realizing he can't, and then getting rejected - cool. And if Kutner's suggestion is really taken, House farming out his Wilson-related needs, he'll shrivel up inside... Fringe. Boring. One more episode. The Mentalist, which I enjoyed a lot. And - finally - I watched the last three episodes of Dr Who, which had been sitting on my DVR since I went on vacation-cum-workshops this summer. I had kept scrolling past them because, well, if I watched them there wouldn't be any more to watch. But I finally had to. Damn. What an ending. Some people think there were two many guests (Ianto, Gwen, Luke - even Sarah Jane), but that really was the point of the episode and none of them could be left out.

Read: Silks by Dick & Felix Francis. Better than their previous one - pretty good, in fact. Margaret Maron's latest Deborah Knott mystery, Death's Half Acre.
