Flipping Around

Figured I should get at least one post in before the first quarter of the year is done.

* I wasn't particularly sad to see Private Practice go, but I did find it funny that the show ended with all of the doctors in the practice's kitchen, which is pretty much the only room we've seen on a consistent basis for the last couple of seasons. As much as it tried to serve as a coda to the series (with the debate if the show's title was a good title for Violet's new book), it also reminded me of how far the series had strayed from its original idea.

* And while it's not related, I will take the karmic trade-off of Private Practice for The Sing-Off any time. The a capella competition is back next season, and back in its short-run format during the holidays, as it should be.

* Finally got around to watching the first episode of The Following, liked it quite a bit, even if the Joe Carroll's minions seem a little too perfect at carrying out their deeds without being detected.

* While I'd not have used so much profanity, I would have hit on most (if not all) of the same reasons why Chuggington is awful.
