Shows I can't wait to fall in love with and rave about

Apparently, the folks behind HBO's best show EVER, The Wire, are making a new show set in New Orleans called Treme. How awesome is that? Jezebel wants to know which folks from The Wire would people like to see on the new show. Any excuse to cast Michael K. Williams (Omar) and Idris Elba (Stringer Bell) in something sounds good to me. Frankly, I heart Mr. Elba so much I almost contemplated seeing Obsessed last weekend. Then I picked up those marbles I almost lost and just watched Iron Chef on YouTube some more. Back to Treme. Khandi Alexander will be on the show which is pretty boss in and of itself. So nice to see that she has left that asstastic CSI: Miami. Also, Wendell "The Bunk" Pierce is also on board. Everyone loves The Bunk. It's news like this that makes me want to get super-duper fancy cable again. Frankly, I still miss my fancy cable. But I learned that without the cable box connected I can watch Turner Classic Movies. It's fuzzy as hell, but it doesn't matter. Even watching a grainy Elvis get punched in the throat is still better than yet another episode of That 70s Show. By the way, I am following Ashton Kutcher now on Twitter. Don't ask me why, I just am. He links to some interesting stories like this one about a 13-year-old possibly going to prison for 21 to 45 years for armed robbery...because that'll learn 'im. And that story isn't even out of Florida! Not that Illinois hasn't had its share of justice system shenanigans.
