I've never gotten the appeal of Helfer. I remember, when I listened to Ronald D. Moore's BSG podcast, he frequently spoke of how incredibly beautiful and sexy she was. I never got it, and like you, she's not the best actress around. For some reason I could never buy her as the major operative in such a nasty organization. But hey: it's a lighthearted show in the main, so I rolled with it. A better choice for that role would have been Lucy Lawless, who alas was only in one ep before being killed off. But without any spoilers, I will say it's interesting how the show has no problem taking out guest stars.

Starting Wednesday night at 11 pm, running 'til around 4 am, then again starting at 6 am Thursday, airing throughout the day. Neither slot is accommodating to those who have to work (or sleep), and don't want to fill up a VCR tape or DVR listing. I just don't get it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQdwk8Yntds ---End Message---
Re: [RE][scifinoir2] Burn Notice
Burn Notice is a heavily recorded (and online viewed) show. It's how I watch. I got put onto the show by someone who'd DVR'ed it. On Jan 19, 2009, at 10:23 PM, keithbjohn...@comcast.net wrote: Yep.

For example, USA network keeps trumpeting the fact that Burn Notice is one of their most highly rated programs. They run commercials for it all the time. Why then, do they air reruns at such crazy times? The show's been airing at odd hours, typically weeknights around midnight or 1 am EST. I keep wondering why such a hot show is given such a lousy rerun time? Checking the primetime hours throughout the week, I see USA airs wrestling, House, NCIS, and Law and Order all the time. All get better times than Burn Notice. NCIS, for example, often gets several hours of programming starting around 4 or 5 pm. They're running a Burn Notice marathon ahead of this week's season premiere on Thursday. The times?
