The soundtrack to the INXS tele-movie last night reminded me why as a kid I was once a fan of their music before KICK. Preferred their older Aussie pub band sound to the late 80s songs that made them a global success.

I think I might be one of the very few who didn't bother watching the INXS or Corby shows

Just wasn't interested

Sad when the 30km cross country skiing has more appeal  ;D

Anyone rate American Horror Story? Trailers for 3rd season look awesome. Keen to start from the first.

First series was excellent, will admit it took me a while to "get it" but once I did was hooked.

Enjoyed the 2nd series Asylum. Some brilliant perforamces in that one especially by Jessica Lange & Lizzie Brochere

Started watching the 3rd (Coven) on Ch Eleven and will admit I was disappointed, only watched the first 4 episodes and gave up. If it shows up again on Foxtel I might try again  ;D

Believe they are going to be making a 4th series later this year and it maybe the last because Jessica Lange (who's the main star) has said series 4 will be her last

yeah, first series of american horror story was best.
coven was a bit...dunno too modern? did miss the mark but had its moments though. Seemed to be aimed at gen y with a cross between sabrina the teenage witch and the latest fad of zombies and undead.

speaking of which, anyone watching Death Valley?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?
