Flashpoint on the move + Space Junk

[wraithfodder]

Yes, yes, now I can watch and record both Stargate Atlantis and Flashpoint on the DVR! Just read on TVweek.com that CBS is moving Flashpoint to the 10:00pm slot on Thursday nights (okay, this bumps Hopkins to the VCR, but I can live with that) starting this week! Apparently Flashpoint is pulling in 7.62 million viewers, while Swingers (being put in to the Friday slot) pulls in just 6.52 million.

I really do like Flashpoint - it's well-written, well-acted, and I am a fan of Canadian productions.  I'm not into it fannishly but definitely enjoy watching it.

and....

Apparently, a year ago (July 23, 2007), the International Space Station astronauts tossed out a refrigerator-sized ammonia reservoir. The 1400-pound piece of space junk has been orbiting Earth since then, but, oops, it's coming down this year or next. Apparently the orbit has decayed so much that the "Early Ammonia Server" (or EAS) is nearly as bright as the stars of the Big Dipper. You can check spaceweather.com/flybys for flyby times, if you want to go outside and see it (apparently no telescope is required!) And CTV is airing it at the same time (and it's the #1 TV download on iTunes Canada).

Darn, I sorta liked Flashpoint on Fridays. Oh well. I tend not to like Canadian shows, yes, I'm Canadian. But still, Flashpoint is like you said well written and well acted. I hope it sticks around. Speaking of Canada, iTunes Canada is now offering SGA s1-5!!!! w00t!

Better not fall on us like they usually do!

I can think of one or two places I wouldn't mind it landing ;)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

What, Congress?

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Wow, you're psychic!

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

No, I believe if it landed on Parliament House in Canberra we'd probably be more productive!

I think if it lande on 'any' government building we all might be happier. Hmm, the IRS...

I did my tax yesterday. They're giving me more money than usual! (Being not rich means I get money back)
What's the catch?
