I thought I did post in this thread before but couldn't remember so I made that other thread for no reason. I'm an idiot.

Anyways. Me and my girlfriend watched the pilot because we both are fans of Zach G. Personally it was a pretty enjoyable pilot. I don't know how long or how much I will enjoy the show overall but I will be checking out episode two tomorrow night and probably keep up with it. Right now I feel like it could go either way.

Also for those of you wondering....

Here are episode summaries all the way up to October 31st if anyone is interested. Also has summaries for Eastbound and Boardwalk Empire.

Tonight's episode:

02x01: “Escape from the Dungeon!”
Taking time out from his new gig as a night-school fiction-writing teacher, Jonathan (Jason Schwartzman) is hired by a mounted policeman (Lenny Venito) whose name is on the client list of an S&M dungeon that’s about to be busted. Meanwhile, George (Ted Danson) is flummoxed to learn that his new publisher plans to cut costs on every front, and Ray (Zach Galifianakis) fails a yoga test with Leah (Heather Burns), putting their relationship in final jeopardy.

Written by Jonathan Ames; directed by Alan Taylor.

Pretty much the same thing this time around. BookCourt always has free wine when there's readings, but Van Horn also did catering last night and they had a bunch of these really good mini sandwiches. As far as "special guests" go, John Hodgman showed up and did Q&A with Ames. He's an odd one.

Hi there, Speaking of death prediction, I find it really odd that one of the on-line death prediction services showed me the same death date that I was foretold in my dream about a year ago. http://yourdeathdate.info/1/index.html - I can’t explain this coincidence in any other way except that there must be some kind of magic involved here.

My dealings with the site http://yourdeathdate.info had ended in a nasty exchange with the site`s management. Just about half a year ago my girlfriend took a death-prediction test and found out that she had only about a month and a half left to live. When she had only a day left before the predicted date, she started showing clear signs of agitation and got into a car accident exactly on the predicted date. She survived accident, but the that was a real close call. We are now taking legal action again this site on our lawyer`s advice.
