I am so excited that Heroes starts tonight. It has been a long wait. Any other fans out there? Come and watch the show with me anytime your interested. I miss hanging out with Nick and talking about the show. Hey Nick.
I am watching Peggy Olson on Mad Men going through a church committee meeting. They totally nailed what it is like sometimes as a creative. Did anyone out there see the episode?
Do you think that Peggy Olson favors Thom Yorke from Radiohead?
I have noticed that there has been a lot of programming on AMC that is not what I would call American Movie Classics. Two of their current favorites are Road House and anything by Chuck Norris. At no point in my mind do this movies qualify as an American classic.
So how would you define an American Movie Classic?
I am really excited about the first episode of Season 2 of Mad Men tonight on AMC. I just started getting into Mad Men a Few Weeks ago when I noticed that the lead character Don Draper looks like my brother Chuck. I am getting a picture of Chuck together to do a side by side for you guys.
Mad Men is about marketing executives in the 1960s on Madison Avenue. This time capsule shows what this era looked like in the workplace for men, women, and people of color. We also peer into the machine of selling to the masses. It is interesting to find a character like Don who is so flawed relationally, but still has such amazing insights into how we tick and what we will respond to. Can’t wait to see what happens tonight.
I stumbled upon a new Frontline special on PBS Tuesday night entitled Jesus in China. I can’t say too much about it right now since I am still watching it, but I have attached the promo from YouTube.com for you to check out. An interesting subject in light of recent activity in China.
How much do you know about the underground church movement in China?
