The Rabbit Hole

So, after much procrastinating in favor of Lego Star Wars II, I finally finished Red Dwarf entirely. The cute little video on the extras as a recap of all the hijinks over eight series makes me miss the first few series more. Not that VII and VIII didn't have their highlights (I think Chris Barrie perfected the idea and look of "git" to the level of a Platonic ideal--imagine the quintissential git, and you're really thinking of Rimmer), but the early seasons were much more standout. I'll have to revisit them eventually, if only to listen to the commentary. Like old friends. Or something. Hard to say. I don't like how the last series ended particularly, but I could see it as them making it a concerted effort to get the movie off the ground or another series made. Pity neither happened.

Now, it's onto the 30 billion other shows I queued up at Netflix--Dr. Who, Deadwood, Carnivale, God how many more? I also did buy Animaniacs Volume 1 at Best Buy when I went to grab Lego Star Wars II, and there's the last disc of Futurama Volume 4...

And I'm only sixty percent on Lego Star Wars II, come to think of it. That's all right. feiran has it right now, and maybe that will encourage me to get the thirty other things I could be doing done. I'm already working on uploading pictures, getting music sorted onto the new computer (only took several months!), and I even did a little cross-stitching (which kitties put the kibosh on right-quick).
