corrupted by retro pop culture

Can someone please explain to me WHY BBC America is using the Tara King Avengers end title music instead of using the Emma Peel one for the Emma Peel episodes? It's nice that they finally brought back the credits in a font size that is actually readable, but I really don't like how they still cut off the color episodes' closing scenes. They're terribly SEDDI-filled and really quite cute in a British 60's mod-style way.

And may I say for the record, I reallly adore "Escape in Time," even if it is terribly campy and doesn't make too much sense. And Peter Bowles puzzles me greatly. Is he actually capable of not raising his eyebrows and talking with that funny lisp in ANY 60's TV show? I'm just curious.

I have a terrible amount of work to do, but at least the math SAT IIC will be over on Saturday. But then I have my Telluride application which is due Monday afternoon, and I must finish that or else I'm sunk.

But I will finally get those various CD's I've wanted to listen to for some time tomorrow. Or rather, I'll finally bother to order them. I can be amazingly lazy about things I actually want to do.

Ah, I was just reading your bio and you had Alan Rickman on your list of interests. Just a hunch!

And god damn he's sexy in this pic. I think what does it for me is the huskyness of his voice, it's a bad boy thing. I was watching re-runs of King of the Hill today and he was a guest character. Also I can't get enough of the Severus Snape character. It's a combination of my professor fetish--my ex was a junior lecturer--and the grumpy, mysterious, broody type I seem to have a habit of going for.

Don't mind me!
