Previews
The "fall finale" of Prison Break was brutal, but mostly just because I'd been told it was two hours. It was, I suppose - they re-ran last week's episode at 8. It ends on a couple of excruciating cliffhangers, and I thought they were going to be resolved, worse luck.
On the ads I saw a preview for Aeon Flux (which I had thought was pronounced "A-on", not "E-on", as "Mae" sounds like "may", not "me"). It looks like complete nonsense, just like the original show, but gorgeously shot nonsense. If they privilege form over content enough, I just may be interested in seeing that one.
(They also showed a preview for the new King Kong, but that only suggests that Peter Jackson continues to privilege form over content in a different, totally unappealing way - I'd love to be proved wrong, but I don't think I'm willing to drop $10 to do so)
