We watched the Manchurian Candidate last night and I really enjoyed it. I thought that Meryl Streep especially did a great job. Of course, I have never seen the original so I don't have anything to compare it with. We're going to see if we can hunt that one down now.

We just finished Disc 3 of Kids in the Hall Season 1. The last episode on that disc was one I had never seen...ever. And it was because all but 1 of the sketches was too raunchy/full of swear words to be broadcast in the US. The one sketch that could be shown was a Buddy Cole sketch that we figure they must have used as filler in other episodes with 1 sketch that couldn't be shown, because we've seen that sketch a million times. It was a good episode!

The original is way better. Although Meryl does her best Hillary impersonation, nothing compares to Angela Lansbury's performance in the original. It's stunning. The original took me by surprise and I am glad I saw it before the remake.

'Ray' arrived today from Netflix. We're going to watch it sometime this week. I'm looking forward to seeing Foxx's performance.

Late Saturday evening on "O" after Talk Sex with Sue Johanson, they have a show called Bliss which I can only describe as porn for women. Can I say porn here? We'll find out. Anyhow, gosh darn those wacky Canadians and their liberal teevee habits. Frankly I'm surprised they let it show here at all. But it definitely gets a snap.

Finally watched Miracle, and I enjoyed it... but loved finding the FRAGGLES on DVD.....we've watched that one 3 times in 3 days! And I just bought the new cartoon DVD's .... we haven't watched them yet, they look like they are low end suplements to the tins.

Numerous cartoons & Disney movies since both boys are home sick. Since Shawn's nighttime cough med is having the opposite affect

we will soon be watching Sleeping Beauty, again. I'm sure I'll hear that he's Prince Phillip and Ali-bot is Sleeping Beauty, again

Ok, that is just too cute! I will have to tell her about this in the morning. I am certain she will get all giggly.

The one released last year? If so, I agree- wonderful movie. I loved Jason Isaacs as Mr. Darling/ Capt. Hook, and the boy who played Pan was incredible.
