A chance, this week, to tidy up a few stories mid-way through the
viewing year. Of course there's still The L Word (series three of the
lesbian drama on Living TV at ten on Saturday nights), Veronica Mars
(season two, also Living, but on Thursdays at eight) and Huff (season
two, FX, Monday night at ten, where sexy
Sharon Stone is acting up a
storm and proving more than a handful for Oliver Platt's character!),
all now developing strongly and taking route and popularity in the
current scheduling.
Also around of note - documentary "How Nudity Conquered the World" (five, Wednesday at 11.30pm).
Music - from a real music fan point of view, I have to say I think
Music television has been down in the dumps for sometime now (the
situation got worse this week with the news that popular vh2 has got to
go because of the drop in interest in those terrible ringtone adverts -
it sucks!) Anyway, lets try and turn back the clock when music TV WAS
music TV and a real star of that was
Madonna. Relive her sexiest videos
on TMF at 11pm on Friday night. (unfortunately more than likely with ad
breaks full of expensive rubbish ringtones!)
Sport now and Sky Sports has produced some very sex and at times very
revealing in their careers, but intelligent presenters -
Kirsty Gallacher and Helen "Hells Bells" Chamberlain spring to mind. I am well
aware also of one the great sporting debates raging across many a site
and forum at present too. That of who is SS news sexiest female
presenter at present. Ill chip in my opinion and say it must be
Georgie Thompson (small, but perfectly formed and with a killer voice!) closely
followed in the table by the rapidly improving Di Stewart. Coming up on
the rails though are newcomers Milli Clode and Hayley McQueen (another
relative of a famous Scottish sports star, how does that work out what
with Dalglish as well!) Point of all this is that if you like the way
these brains and beauties deliver who beat who, they will now be on
channel 405 from Monday at 9.30am, only if you are a Sky Digital
viewer, as that system is changing its channel numbering around to
accommodate new material.
Finally, looking further ahead on the subject of a couple of HBO shows
and their relevance to here, I understand that the second series of
Rome will be the last - following on from the article the other day.
Rising production costs, so hopefully even greater scenes of nudity
then! Should be Stateside around the beginning of next year. Also, we
are still awaiting the start of Entourage on one of the Itv channels
here. We've been promised at some point and I look forward to the one
where
Holly Valance makes a very nude appearance in!
