Just finished a marathon of yesterday's Gossip Girl, Dirty Sexy Money and Private Practice. And found myself liking all of them more that I expected. GG improved from its pilot episode, Dirty Sexy Money was funny and the slash potential is crazy awesome, plus omg!Casey McCall and Creepy Russian Guy from the first season of The Closer. And despite moaning about Private Practice all through last year and feeling rather ambivalent towards it all summer, I really enjoyed the pilot. And dancing Addison is hot. And her speech at the end? So so good. Let's hope tonight's Grey's keeps up with the good times.

Just as a PS - What was with the 38 minute runtime on GG? And the first three minutes of that were all recap. I mean seriously, old episodes of The X-Files clock in at a solid 44 minutes and pretty much every other show on TV today can at least manage 41-42 minutes. 38? That's gotta improve. Over the course of an entire season that adds up to more than an entire episode of runtime. Definitely will not be watching it on the air if I have to sit through 22 minutes of commercials. All hail BitTorrent!
