TV

Big Cat Live
1x02 (6/10/08 edition)

No Heroics
1x01 Supergroupie

Part 3 (of 3)

So, hurrah -- titles are much better than plain numbers, if you ask me.

It's a minor point, I know, but I'll be going back and editing all my posts to add in their actual titles now. Bloody TV.com.

I'm blue!

Da-ba-dee da-ba-die!
