Well my pass card was being super tricky and sleuth the other day. I found it, in all its offwhite glory on top of a pile of offwhite paper. almos the same shade ... Anyway so the coffee I bought today got to be for me instead of Ashfar which was pleasant and necessary because I am exhausted.

I got home late last night (2 am) because of a concert and for some reason that translated to watching the first few episodes of Wonder Showzen. Now ... words can't really describe this show. It is beyond absurd and horrible and deliciously politically incorrect. Think South Park but far far worse haha. Half the people that watch this love it to pieces and the other half hate it utterly and with a depth of contempt they didn't know they ever had. I am firmly in camp one. It combines animation and puppets with an utterly kiddish look but with complete adult content. It got two seasons, 8 episodes each, 16 in total and I really wish there were more.

I offer this show to you but with a warning which is of course: Not For Everyone. The opening title is really catchy but not appropriate if I want to keep this PG.

Lastly, I just found out that John Barrowman is actually going to star in the musical production of the Sound of Music here in Toronto. He's currently the celebrity guest judge on Canada's How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria? The show starts in October and apparently I have a ticket. The man is gregarious and outrageous and it'll be interesting to see him play the stern and subdued Captain Von Trapp. Also - rawr - he shall make one pretty piece of eyecandy on stage. Sorry did I say that outloud?

They exist to disappear and leave you very confounded on where exactly they could have ended up. I need a passcard to use the elevator and to open all doors at work. I have also lost my passcard. It's either in my duffle bag I took on my trip this weekend, on train 46, or in Kingston. Either way. It's not on my persons and I now have to bribe the security guard with coffee to lend me a temporary replacement.

On a separate note - is it just me or is Weeds becoming a darker and darker comedy. I like my humour black but its becoming a little dark for even my tastes. Euthanasia as a comedic situation seems a little harsh. How much further are we going to go down this rabbit hole? Last week it was joking about rape kits and this week smothering people with pillows. Can Weeds go back to the fun times of blackmail, sham marriages, absurd businesses as fronts for taxes with grow-ops in the backroom, and PTA Celia wreaking delicious havok?

Here are just a few movies that you may not have heard of that are great and you should now watch.

Young People F***ing: I just saw this movie in theatres. Absolutely hilarious. It's rated 18A here in Canada (which means you have to be 18+ or chaperoned by someone 18+). It looks at one night in bed with five different types of relationships. It's surprisingly tongue-in-cheek and non-explicit and did I mention it was hilarious?

Strictly Ballroom: This is an older movie and is an Australian Comedy. It's about ballroom dancing and follows a dancer who wants to do his own steps who and the girl who helps him do this. It's ridiculous but all in a good way. I don't know what a Bogo Pogo is, but I know want to learn.

Sharkwater: This is an amazing documentary about a Canadian marine biologist who starts off making a movie about sharks and ends up making a movie to save sharks instead. Shark finning is widespread, illegal, and could devestate the shark population. I suggest it to anyone and everyone.

Offside: This is a fabulous Iranian movie about girls who dress up as men and try and sneak into soccer games (because it is illegal for women to attend soccer games). This is a beautiful film with a really satisfying ending and you'd think it could get boring but I loved it from start to end.

Guilty Pleasures exist and well - I am not feeling all that guity nowadays about what I watch because I've decided to become a total hedonist. My first step to this transition involved buying a 5 dollar latte this morning. It tasted of Maple and was delicious. Do you know what else is delicious?

Hell's Kitchen: Do I love the Brits? Yes I'm a total Anglophile. Do I love watching people get belittled and yelled at by a raving lunatic? Immensely. Do I hate reality television? Yes but hearing Ramsay call somone a "Stupid Donkey" ever few minutes is well worth it. I tune into this show week in and week out. I even hate the contestants but I do it because of my love of angry British People. When Hell's Kitchen isn't on - I watch old reruns of Black Books to ease the pain of separation.

Jon & Kate + 8: Okay, here is the thing. It's a deep dark secret of mine but since this is the internet. I shall reveal the truth. I love the TLC network. Whenever I feel sick or sad, I turn it on and let it comfort me in lieu of chicken noodle soup (I'm vegetarian) and parents (because I don't usually live with them). This show is about people who had two sets of multiples. Two twin girls and then sextuplets. I like watching them and thinking - I will never be that effed in my life. Also, if they can survive with 8 young children under the age of 8. I can live with two essays that are wreaking havok with my nerves.

Repeats of Gossip Girl: Oh god, this show. I used to be ashamed I watched it but I do and I love it. I went to an all girl's school. I learned to love the drama of queen bees, usurpings, and dirty dirty warfare. Granted we never had a gossip website but the rumour circuit was so well honed even I was updated constantly. This probably doesn't count but I tune into this show every week despite already watching it the first time through.

How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?: By voting apparently. This was a show that ran in England to find the lead in their new stage production of the Sound of Music. They are doing the same for the new production in Toronto. I already have tickets to go see it. I figured I should at least make sure the girl I want to be Maria is Maria. And if you are wondering if I have voted ... no but I was sorely tempted to. I think there is a trend of reality shows making this list.

The Middleman: This is going here because its off of the ABC Family network and I'm sorry. The show is so campy and so awesome but that's its home and anything that network produces is a guilty pleasure (see GREEK and Kyle XY)

Stargate Atlantis: Here is a sci-fi show that I watch for two reasons (Incredibly hilarious saracsm and a starring character who is Canadian and often saves the day. His annoyingness factor has decreased the more I watch him). I wouldn't call it good though. Like its predecesor, it is utterly formulaic and the universe isn't well thought out. The entire universe speaks English? Really? At least Star Trek had a transaltion device and Hitchhiker's Guide had the babel fish and Doctor Who has the TARDIS. Stargate just has this miraculous luck that the whole universe speaks English. It's a good thing the Russians or the Chinese didn't discover the Stargate first. I'll watch it because the characters amuse me but as a sci-fi series. It has major flaws that I can't really overlook.

This is it and there are a few missing from all lists. Mostly the bad show list. I didn't mention America's Got Talent but that show is the WORST SHOW ON TV RIGHT NOW. I'd rather watch the MOMENT OF TRUTH. That is how much I despise that entire show.
