Dead . . . like me.

Took a sick day today because . . . ugh.

Then after much sleep and some shiny new antibiotics I have become a permanent fixture in front of both my computer and my television. (I could think of worse places to be on a sick day.)

On a whim, I rediscovered my Dead Like Me love today. And while I prefer to watch my DVDs, I'll probably catch it tonight on Sci Fi since I'll have the time. (There's something neat about watching the edited versions anyway. Since they have to cut so much - due to language, content, etc. - there are actually extra scenes added in as well as alternate - not just dubbed - versions of some of the original segments. Someone was planning ahead for network syndication! *G*)

In my online travels, I also discovered some interesting stuff relating to the show:

-- An interview with DLM creator Bryan Fuller from this past October in which he discusses some of his original plans for the show, as well as what he would to have liked to see happen. ( Some passing spoilers if you're not familiar with DLM )

-- A cute game in which you can sic a Graveling on Showtime execs. For anyone who may still be bitter over the show's cancellation. *G*

-- Metisse has recently released a new album. (As of yesterday, I believe.) Anyone who has seen DLM is probably very familiar with "Boom Boom Ba," which received heavy play throughout the series. The new album (as well as some samples) is available on their website and their MySpace page. (The title track "Nomah's Land" was featured in Season 2.)
