‘Life’ is good

Well, here is the thing. Despite all of your insistence, I gave up on “Life.” Actually, it would be more accurate to say I just never got restarted again. I caught the first couple episodes and then my TV time to sleep time to actual real life time ratio got way out of whack and I just never picked back up the show. Also, after foolishly sitting through all those terrible episodes of “Bionic Woman,” I kind of lost my taste for more TV on Wednesday nights. But now I feel like I’ve made a terrible mistake. Which, of course, I will try to make amends for with peace offerings and hot pictures.
So, in Monday night’s episode, Sarah’s character gets a little surprise lip action from a woman at a party. Sniff. It made me all sentimental for her “the L Word” days. The scene was great, kind of priceless even. Her reaction was both stunned and unfazed, which is difficult to do. But, then, I guess she has had plenty of practice. I thought this sequence was hilarious; pay close attention to Sarah’s eyes. [Click each to enlarge.]Check out Sarah talking about her new role with the NY Daily New here. The final new episode of “Life” completed by the Writer’s Strike aired last night. It’s my secret -- I guess not-so secret now -- hope that NBC will replay the show’s season from the beginning now that we’re in repeat hell. It would give sheepish Janey-Come-Latelys like myself a chance to atone. And what marvelous atoning it is.
