A little bit of this and that

Posted By Alexandria Harper On Wednesday, June 10, 2009 @ 8:07 pm In A Little of Everything, TV | No Comments

Set your DVRs! [1] USA just announced that the premiere of Season 4 of [2] Psych will be August 7. If you haven’t watched Psych before I highly recommend it. Shawn and Gus are two of the most entertaining characters on television. The show is an giant homage to the 1980s in addition to plenty of comedy and mystery to keep everyone in your family entertained.  I saw at Target this evening they have seasons 1 and 2 of Psych for $13.99 each (in-store only). They also had all three seasons of [3] Arrested Development and a several others for that low price as well. I also picked up a DVD set of [4] Superman I-IV (with [5] Christopher Reeve) for $9.99. They had a few four movie compilations, including [6] The Matrix Trilogy plus the [7] Animatrix. Four movies for 10 bucks is a good deal no matter how you slice it.

Just a reminder that season 2 of [8] True Blood starts this Sunday. [9] HBO has posted some videos on their site to help you get in the mood. I’m excited to see what’s in store for the new season. I was visiting [10] Charlaine Harris’ web site to see if there was any True Blood info and I saw she has a Sookie Stackhouse book coming out in October. It’s a compilation of her Sookie short stories called “[11] A Touch of Dead“. You can pre-order the book on [12] Amazon.com now. I had no idea the short stories even existed! I’m not surprised though. [13] Janet Evanovich does a similiar thing with her Stephanie Plum series, except I guess you would classify them as novellas, really. Speaking of Stephanie Plum the next book, “[14] Finger Lickin’ Fifteen” goes on sale June 23. It’s available for pre-order too.

I love pre-ordering on Amazon. When they lower the price by $1 just before release I feel like I’m getting a deal. I know it’s purely psychological but it makes me feel better. Most of the time Amazon does have the best prices on the web. Sometimes you can find better deals at [15] Tower.com but the free shipping takes forever. Tower has all of the [16] Sookie Stackhouse paperbacks for $5.99 right now, by the way. You’ll have to pick through the list to find them but it’s worth it. You can see the bibliography at the Charlaine’s web site linked above.

Well, that’s all for me on this fine Wednesday evening. Type again to you soon!
