"Duster"? 

"Duster"? 

I assume you have seen westerns. Ever seen "Pale Rider"? A duster is a long, usually khaki or white coloured coat worn by cowboys. In "Pale Rider" the evil people who all get shot by Preacher wear dusters.

Watching "House'.  Interesting.

duster=western

House is one of my favourite series'...now if they would hurry open and give us another season of The Shield, I would be even happier

I love "House". I wish doctors were actually like him. It's the only doctort show Dr.Dad likes too. Probably because he is about as big a curmodgeon as House, though not quite as deligtfully sarcastic and mean.

yesterday i watched no country for old men

I can't wait for that one to come here. Read the book and it was so darn good.

You're a doctor brat, too?  I wonder what my old man thinks of the show- probably loves it.  Anyone as nice as him always secretly yearns to tell the whole world off.

Watched Hoodwinked, a retelling of LIttle Red Riding Hood as a crime thriller.  It was fairly funny.

Started to watch "Fractured Flickers" collection.  They're still funny, but my tolerance level isn't what it used to be    Had to stop after the first 4.

Also enjoyed Stardust.  Not what I had expected, based on the promos, but a pretty good Fairy Tale, even so.

I'm enjoying House, but it's a bit disconcerting to see how often someone rushes in when the team is about to do a major intervention to yell 'no, wrong idea, you'll kill him/her".  particularly after they've found the information out by breaking into the persons house or office.

And almost every program has someone having a seizure which tells them that diagnosis "L" was wrong and it could be "M", "N", "O", or "P" instead.

But in another episode or two I will start to watch for it, like watching for the FBI torches in X-files or the deep and meaningful one-liners in CSI.

I find I have to totally turn off my medical truth detector to watch any of those shows, except ER, but especially House, and concentrate on how much I would have liked to rant at patients and inept staff like he can.  I enjoy Hugh Laurie, but don't really watch it for the story line, which is disconcerting in the way you noticed LE.  I still watch it though, good sarcasm is hard to find.

Did anyone see Terry Pratchetts "Hogfather"?
Great movie, but the book, of course, is much better 

Hogfather's on film??  Since when??  I need to know, Please.

I did!!! It was quite good. Imagine a Discworld movie made with a Hollywood budget...

Just read and watched "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" again. So good...

Here in Germany I found it a few days before Christmas. It was also shown on TV.
