every word of it.

Spaced is finally getting a Region 1 release. And to celebrate, Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) and Jessica Hynes (nee Stevenson) (Shaun of the Dead, Son of Rambow) and director Edgar Wright will travel to New York, Los Angeles, Comic-Con and Austin for special screenings, a marathon, panel sessions and signings for fanboys and fangirls.

It took ‘em long enough. I still have my Livejournal archive, and according to that - I purchased the Region 2 release sometime around December 2004. The series ended in 2001. So yea, no one was in a rush.

You can guess that since I’m writing about it here on raishad.com, I love Spaced. And you’d be right. It’s one of those shows that I get an urge to marathon. And you could probably guess that I’ll be at the Austin event. But unfortunately, I’ll be on vacation. I’ll be out of the country. I’ll be in Trinidad. I’ll be missing Simon Pegg, Jessica Hynes, and Edgar Wright. I’ll be missing Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright for the 2nd time.

It’s a bit disappointing.

Regarding the upcoming release, it looks like I might have to buy it, though the cover is a bit worse. There will be new commentary tracks and a few new interview bits.

From the folks that brought you Robin Sparkles

How I Met Your Mother, the best sitcom on tv

when I said Pushing Daisies was a “strong second”

Turns out I was wrong. Pushing Daisies is a strong first. Tonight’s episode was amazing.

It was so perfect and excellent, I almost cried.

I just hope I won’t be needed to save this show like I did with 30 Rock.

Also, I too wanted to be a Jedi

Why is Bionic Woman such shit and Battlestar Galactica such awesome?

Journeyman is definitely the best new show this season. Or maybe Aliens in America. Haven’t decided yet. Pushing Daisies is a strong second.

Update: Seems I was lied to. I hate liars. Joey Devilla is a liar and a thief. He totally stole The Simpsons content from another site. Thanks Dario

Seeing a post like this, showcasing scenes from episodes of The Simpsons and the movie they reference makes me realize how little I do on my blog.

I mean, it’s been a week since ACL, and I haven’t even made a post about it. At least I uploaded pictures though. Admittedly, not good pictures - mostly crowd shots. But I could’ve said something about how seeing Crowded House was the best thing ever. Or how I really really hate Earth Invaders by Björk, and seeing it live just reinforces the fact that new Björk doesn’t appeal to me. Or even state how the people who sit in chairs in the middle of Zilker Park are the saddest people in the world.

I think I’ll start uploading some videos I took to youtube.

Instead of listening to that morose son of a bitch drone on and on about terrorists and terrorism tomorrow, watch Avatar. The Season 2 box set comes out tomorrow. Coincidence? Nah, Nickelodeon knows how to bring the country together.

It’s finished. The guy came over and now I can watch Uverse in my room!

So far it seems okay. The internet is definitely faster. I’ll let you know what little things annoy the crap out of me (and only me).

Heroes. Earlier I mentioned was kind of meh. I’ll take it back. It was above average. Just barely. It definitely doesn’t hold up well to analysis.

But it’s okay, because Peter Petrelli is a certified badass. If I could be anyone else, it would be Peter Petrelli.
