* Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones are leaving Parks & Rec.
* Granted, I have been fooled before, but the talk about Homeland makes it sound like season 3 will correct a LOT of the problems with season 2.
* Also, the Homeland TCA panel - in which the showrunners were much more forthcoming with details than most - has sparked a discussion over spoilers, particularly in critics' reviews, and whether or not they really impact our TV experience. (For the record, I disagree that "Spoilers can only make you more excited to see something" - having been witness to the "sire bond" panic in TVD fandom, where the anticipation was worse than what we actually got, IMO - but I do agree that if shock value is the only thing making a story worthwhile, then it's not a very good story to begin with.)
*cleolinda can now add "psychic" to her list of talents, apparently.
* Has anyone used this Google Chromecast doohickey? Because it sounds somewhat miraculous, and therefore also too good to be true.
