TV Scape

I know you were all probably thinking TVScape was turning into a U2 site, what can I say? From all the commercials and hype you would think it was the biggest thing on TV this week…okay, let’s face it, it is. They are really working the David Letterman late show. Wonder how great the Good Morning America show will be tomorrow. These guys rock and give 110 percent. I remember when they did Saturday Night Live one year they played an extra set before the SNL cameras shut off.

Okay, I’m ready for some Primetime. Don’t tell anybody but I saw Life on Mars for the first time last night. I know! And I’m sorry I’ve been missing it…and I’m sorry to tell you they just announced it will be canceled. Maybe they should have called it Life on Pluto.

This is the story of my life. But have no fear fans they get to finish out their 17 episodes which will afford them enough time to finish the story line. This simplifies things for me because if I want to collect the series in the future on DVD I only have to purchase one season. How cool is that. That being said, perhaps we will be lucky enough that on that note, they can put together a compilation of the music from the show.

Too bad it is canceled; too bad we can’t get SciFi to pick it up because of the nature of the story. Cop gets hit by car and time travels to 1973…i.e. we have a bunch of cool writers that can only write about cool cops in the 70’s and the music was better back then than it is now and this will only fly if we turn it into science fiction…I tell you if SciFi picked it up it would be easier on the brain than Charlie Jade. You think I’m kidding, why do you think they play it at 3/2 am Central time?

Well, if you still care about Life on Mars visit them at ABC to watch full episodes or listen to the Life on Mars radio (they played Go Now by the Moody Blues and Rocket Man by Elton John last night).

What do you think Michael Imperioli will do next? Will it include more or less hair? Will it matter? Well have to go, U2 is on again.

Fancy that, I’m celebrating BigShoes’ birthday this week and tomorrow one of my favorite bands, U2, releases their twelfth studio album, No Line On The Horizon. Things couldn’t get any better…or could they? U2 is scheduled to perform on the March 6th airing of Good Morning America. This is big TV news of course, and is U2’s second morning television show appearance. They kicked off Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series in 2005 during their Vertigo tour.

I’m a huge U2 fan, especially of their live performances and am very excited to share and I’m prepared to schedule my DVR if I’m not available at the time of their performance. I can’t see why I wouldn’t be since the only time I ever missed a U2 concert that I had wanted to see was due to pregnancy.

It is kismet I tell you. Get On Your Boots!
