TV Marathons
Sci Fi has eight episodes of Andromeda early.
I love Eureka to bits – but I won’t watch reruns on a busy TV night. I’ll take a break after Bones, then watch Boston Legal – and then – the finale of Damages on FX.
Edge, The season finale of Damages is on October 23rd. For the TVaholic, I will be watching Bones, then House, while recording NCIS and The Unit. Damages will get the TiVo treatment as well, as I head off to work.
