We’ve lost two more old-timers from the acting world. Patrick McGoohan and Ricardo Montalban. McGoohan was the star of the cult TV show (that’s soon to be remade–I wonder if it’ll be any less confusing?) The Prisoner. He died yesterday at age 80. Montalban is most famous for his role as the mysterious Roarke on the show Fantasy Island. He also died yesterday at the age of 88.
According to TV Guide, there are plans in the works for a NCIS spin-off.
Also in the news, shades of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. From CNN, Flying Car Takes High Road to Timbuktu. Fun stuff!
Kind of busy night on TV tonight with the return of new episodes for Bones, CSI (it’s Grissom’s final episode), Eleventh Hour (*swoon* Rufus!), plus two new shows: The Beast which may break my boycott of A&E (it stars Patrick Swayze and on Discovery a new show called Treasure Quest (you know I’m always up for a good treasure hunting show).
Wrote about a third of a page last night.
Reading: Still reading Killer in High Heels. Should finish it tonight. Up next, I haven’t decided. 
I got bad news for you..Bones will not be on tonight but look for a 2-hour event next week.
Did you hear who may or may not be the star of the new NCIS2? Alex O’Loughlin from Moonlight.
I may give the new Patrick Swayze show a try.
Yay on writing.

I was about to have a fit! Bones and Grissom’s last show on at the same time? ACK! I wish Patrick Swayze all the best with The Beast.
A NCIS spin-off? Really? I hope the show doesn’t lose a cast member to it.
Good job on the writing!
I hope you’re having a delightful day!

I hate this march of death! i’ll miss both of them very much.
I’ve got to get current with NCIS!

I hope you enjoyed your shows. How did they send off Grissom? I watched a couple episodes when it first came on years ago.
