Mon 24 Nov: I'm going to be very busy until Thursday so chances are I won't be doing much reviewing of Survivors, 24: Redemption et al. Sorry!
Tue 18 Nov: Does it count in the CSI: Miami drinking game if David Caruso and Emily Procter are apparently in the same scene together, but they never speak to each other and you never see both their faces at the same time?
Sat 15 Nov: The Ascent of Money "sponsored by Cayman Islands". Huh. What's going on there then?
