thursday night TV

did anyone see the premiere of "windfall" on NBC last night? i must admit the only reason i ended up watching it was because i was watching the "my name is earl" marathon, and by ten i was rocking a sleeping toddler and the remote was across the room. and so began my love affair with "windfall".

ok, so perhaps it's a little early to call it a love affair. but i did like it. i have to say that i cannot whole-heartedly get behind the notion that winning the lottery would wreck my life...but i'm afraid that's what this show will try to teach me. (it's only a matter of time before someone on the show will say, "i just wish we had never won the 30 million dollars!") i can't grasp that mindset right now...especially this very second, as i am at work. (though it can't be too bad if i have time to discuss TV shows on my blog!) but i do think it's a neat idea for a show, and seeing the return of luke perry is worth it in and of itself i think. i have been in love with him since his dylan mckay days on "90210". one question, though...lady, why are you cheating on luke perry? luke perry???

i just read that the pilot will be on again tonight at 9 pm...you should watch it! and stay for the scenes from the next episode...it looks crazy-good!
