Was watching House this evening and saw the premier for a new show this fall, Standoff. Then something interesting struck me. "Hey, thats Peter from Office Space." Then in the following scene...Gina Torres.

Looks like another "Let's drag a simple story out as long as the ratings hold crap fest that FOX is famous for, but atleast they have a decent cast.

I'll look in for Gina but if they want to keep me they'll need to write some darned good shows.

I'll tune in for Gina, but I don't expect FOX to treat the show properly. Adam also has a new show, thankfully not on FOX. NBC I think.

But I have never seen these streets so fresh Washed with morning rain
I have seen this face a thousand times Every morning of my life
But I never saw these eyes so clear Free of doubt and pain
Like the whole world has been made again."

If anyone is watching this, I just came across this article. It says Tim Minear is joining the crew as a Consulting Producer.

Standoff is a great show. Now, I'm not that excited that its on FOX but I enjoy the banter between the Negotiators and the FBI SWAT Team.

Rosemarie DeWitt (plays Emily), Gina Torres (Cheryl), and Raquel Alessi(Lia) are hot.

What else do you want in a great show? Hotties and SWAT Guys with Guns kickin ass.

Check out an episode after the baseball post-season is over cuz thats when House and Standoff should start showing episodes again.

Oh... Timmie!
Yeah. He's still working on his new show "Drive" too, I hope.


"But you sleep like a ghost with me
It's as simple as that
So tell me I'm mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
My opium den
Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."

Just wanted to throw in that the guy who played Dobson in Serenity has had a small but so far regular role on NBC's Studio 60. Great new show by the way.

Standoff is interesting actually, caught the first couple episodes. Gina is definitly doing a good job in it! The show itself is a different take on a "professional relationship" with the two negotiators, who are trained to talk down fugitives, hostiles, criminals, etc, but, can't really express to each other what they feel. Shiny dysfunctional fun!
