Grounds For Divorce?

Last evening, while watching the Opening Ceremonies (and providing MST3-like commentary because NOTHING is sacred to me) Mrs CB and I were joking about the lack of Xena references. The following conversation ensued:

Mrs CB: Well, I think Xena was actually from Turkey.

Me: Why would you think that?

Mrs. CB: Well, the Amazons are said to have originated in Turkey.

Me: Xena WASN'T an Amazon, she just PLAYED with one.

Mrs CB: Oh yeah, that's right.

Me: You really should know the facts before you go defiling my shows. Pop
quiz. Who is the ADA on SVU?

Mrs CB: Uh, let me think. Uh, it starts with a "C", uh...Cabot?

Me: Where is Alex right now?

Mrs. CB: She's in Witness protection.

Me: I repeat. Who IS the ADA on SVU?

Mrs. CB: Okay, uh she's with that Benton person, right?

Me: Strike two

Mrs CB: Uh, okay, okay...it's Cassie somebody, the blonde chick

Me: Go sleep in the spare room. I'm calling the attorney in the morning.


Poker tonight. We're hosting. Should be an interesting evening.

She quizzed me on her fave show. "Who replaced Pat O'Brien on ACCESS HOLLYWOOD?"...a stoopid Holywood news show. (it was Billy Bush, our "esteemed" President's cousin-, but at least I knew it.)

Did the cake make it through the night? ;)

I just borrowed S1 of Xena on DVD from a friend... Soon I will be up to snuff! Until then, I still don't get the jokes. Hehehehe. But I did get a laugh out of "Cassie the blonde ADA who's shacking up with Liv."

season 2 and 3 were the best.
the acting sucks.
god, you have 6 seasons to watch.

[identity profile] heathers.livejournal.com 2004-08-14 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
Well, they only have 4 (so far) on DVD and it's rerun season so we have lotsa time. :)

I heard that about S2--we just wanted to start from the beginning. They also said S4 is sucky. :|

s4 had a few good eps, but it was kinda downhill from there.
did you get my ym messages?

[identity profile] heathers.livejournal.com 2004-08-14 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yep, I'll tell her (she's at work.) You should reinstall, that's just wierd that you don't get messages... What's the point of messenger, eh?
