Just a litte note, Borders now stock Blu-Ray and HD-DVD and the DVD coupon can be used for them as well. So if you are into high definition, go and check Borders out. I got myself a Transformer HD DVD last time.

Victoria's Secret

Everybody make sure you set your TV tonight to Channel 10. Get your recorder out, high definition TV ready because tonight, the Victoria's Secret annual fashion show will be on. It will be showing at 8.30pm.

It sure is an interesting one because Aussie model, Miranda Kerr is now joining the lovely ladies at Victoria's Secret.

If you don't know her, she was (or is) the model for Portmans (I think it's Portmans not Kookai or something else). Anyway, she appeared on prints and the TV commercial for them.

The Spice Girls also made a performance on the show. Rumour has it that they lip-sync on the show. It was completely denied, of course. I guess I'll have to check it myself tonight.

But, Victoria's Secret fashion show is always interesting to watch, I mean when else would you see half-naked ladies running around with wings. So, take this down Channel 10, Monday 10th December 2007, 8.30pm.

TV Shows : Strike Mode On

This season, Australian TV tried to be different with the US TV shows. Instead of waiting 6 months after they air in the States, they 'fast-tracked' it to 1 week. That's good for us but at the year when they started implementing this, the writers went on strike.

If you haven't heard, the writers association in the US is on strike refusing to write anymore scripts for any TV shows. They want fairer compensation on DVD sales or something like that. Anyway, it's been going on for weeks now and some TV shows are on halt, forcing them to end the season halfway or 10 episodes early.

Anyway, the strike is not going to stop soon and obviously you want to know what happens to your favourite TV show, what happens to the cheerleader, bionic woman, Jack Bauer and so on. Well, this guy in the US has compiled a fairly comprehensive list of what is happening to the shows. Check it out here. It will let you know what's happening with this season and how it impacts the shows. There are some shows that has no more episodes left (like Heroes), or some shows won't be aired at all (24). Some has a few episodes left up their sleeves but will finish up very soon as well.

Well, we all hope that this strike will be over soon because watching shows like this is definitely not funny at all. The link again, here.
