  I need to find out what programs, when and on what channels I can get here. Cause I really don't want to miss Bones.
  
  I just watched the promo for Moonlight. How can a show so similar even get made. Didn't someone tell the writer at some point that their whole premise had actually been done before!

  When I was over there (in England, not Scotland; I wonder if that makes a difference to the TV?), they started most of the shows in the spring. So the season of Buffy that started in the fall in the US started in January in England. I dunno if that's still the case, or if that was true of other shows as well as Buffy... So, basically, yeah. This was an unhelpful comment! :)
  
  And I know, right? Good vampire, kinda broody, private investigator, falls in love with a mortal girl.... You'd think Joss could almost bring plagiarism charges or something.

  i was totally thinking that about moonlight!! duh...ANGEL. and, david b. is MUCH hotter. btw, my internet is still not working at my apartment. so i will have to txt while watching shows for now. i have no money to pay for internet. so i will just have to wait. i am totally thinking the same thing about kitchen nightmares. i can only go for two shows on wed night, cause i am not home. and the other two look better by far. i really hope bionic woman is good!!! i miss all the kick-ass girls!

  If David Boreanaz hadn't been busy with Bones, they probably would've tried to cast him in Moonlight, that's how similar it looks.
  
  No internet boo! :(

  Plus, with this sort of move, it doesn't look like it is really trying to differentiate itself.
  
  I wish they had bought the rights to the Blayde TV show and tamed it a bit (it was too R-rated IMO). That had a touch of originality.

  No kidding. I hadn't even noticed the Greenwalt connection yet. Did Greenwalt decide they hadn't told all the Angel stories yet? Maybe he had a bunch of saved up scripts that never got used? For serious.

  FYI, he quit a few months later "for personal reasons." My guess is that traveling back in time when he stepped on the set didn't agree with him.
  
  A thought for blog fodder some time. Are the major networks going to start trying to immitate the smaller scifi ideas that normally don't get much budget. I think Heroes was a financed version of several Xmen type shows. If we see something new "Nancy Drew" kind of show, we'll know something is up.
