TV Musings

[shakatany]

Last week I watched the 2-hour long, made-for-the-sweeps "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" ep with all 4 detectives. In one scene the victim is given nipple clamps; in another the detectives discuss possible sexual positions that the debilitated rapist must've used ie it couldn't be the missionary position because that would be too hard on his shoulders. I'm thinking this is definitely not my father's Perry Mason.

I truly, truly dislike the David Spade ads for Capital One. I find them sadistic and unfunny. However I do like their ads featuring the retired pillagers. Neither of them will get me to use CO. I don't think I've bought anything because it was advertised on TV since I was a kid. I have definitely avoided purchasing some things because of their ads. I was so annoyed by those "ring around the collar" ads many years ago that to this day I have not bought Wisk.

There's a cabdriver in Chicago who delivered a baby the other day. He said all he knew about childbirth came from watching a show on the Discovery Channel. See folks watching TV can be good for you. I must remember to study all those shows on the separation of conjoined twins just in case *g*.
