It's not just for Les Miserables anymore!
* I neglected to post because it happened over the holiday, but Chevy Chase has left Community.Good riddance. It's pretty unlikely that the show will get a 5th season, so they really don't even have to write him off if they can't be bothered. Apparently there are still one or two more episodes of season 4 to film without him, but I doubt anyone will mind if he just doesn't show up for a couple weeks.
* Downton Abbey was renewed for a fourth season, but possibly without Maggie Smith? Or Dan Stevens? (As a sidebar, I didn't realize that Jessica Brown Findlay wanted out to pursue a Hollywood career. That... does not make [S3 spoiler - y'all know what I'm talking about] any better, but at least there was a reason for it?)
* In other Brit-TV news, if you've been waiting for season 2 of The Hour to air in the US, it premieres this Wednesday on BBC America.
* In still more Brit-TV news, Sherlock season 3 has been pushed back due to the actors' busy filming schedules.
* In not-at-all-about-TV news, this excerpt from a Louisiana textbook on evolution is downright terrifying.
* From the "Australia is AWESOME" file: Best PSA Ever. I will have that song stuck in my head for a long, long time, I expect.
* Okay, fine, one more Les Miserables review.

Today, my mom was all, "Matthew is leaving Downton Abbey!" when I walked in. She saw it on IMDB while looking up Game of Thrones cast lists.

I mean, if Matthew leaving also means Mary leaving, then I'd be sad, because MARY, but otherwise? Meh. I could live quite happily without Matthew.
Or all of them. Basically, I would love a show with nothing but Maggie Smith and Michelle Dockery being awesome.no subject

(Hmmm, maybe that's why the actors are leaving...)

And the stupidity is astounding. Hey, idiot textbook writer, simple and complex organisms exist NOW. It isn't a problem if simple organisms are found.
And...and Cambrian explosion you textbook writing dimwits!

Who actually cares about Downton Abbey anymore tbh.
