Monday Night TV
Now that Heroes is over we ended up watching CBS all last night and it's a pretty good lineup. It's off to a really strong start with How I Met Your Mother and The Big Bang Theory (both of which I really enjoy) followed by the often funny Two and a Half Men and the passable Rules of Engagement.
And when you top it off with CSI Miami it's a full night of comedy...

It's The Tin Man's Fault
I planned on writing something else this evening but it turns out that the Sci-Fi Series Tin Man was on and was oddly entertaining. If you aren't familiar, it's a retelling of The Wizard of Oz. Previous attempts at this haven't fared too well (Remeber The Wiz?) but this was actually rather intriguing.
We watched the original a few weeks back and I believe that my comment to my wife was along the lines of "This is really an awful movie isn't it" - and it really is. Sure, it's a great story, but it's way out there and the acting is just terrible. I've probably watched it every year since I was a child but it seems to have lost it's childhood charm.
So we entered into tonight's episode sort of tentatively but I enjoyed it enough to give it another shot when part 2 comes on tomorrow. I may, against my better judgement, watch Heroes instead and pick this up the next night though.
Maybe I need to read the book again?
