ugh 10:30am 9/19/2002  

As a direct consequence of my rampant mp3ing last weekend, I spent last night reshelving the 200 or so CDs that I had pulled out. During this process, I had the TV chattering away in the background. The new Fox series Fastlane came on, and being curious I sat down to check it out.

Big mistake. Is it worth watching a show when you've noticed five goofs in the first 30 seconds? Acting: terrible. Plot: old and cliched. Casting the idiot jock boyfriend from Can't Hardly Wait as the lead badass undercover cop was probably not such a great idea. Bill Bellamy doesn't do much to give it street cred either. Perhaps to make up for its glaring lack of content, the show included a soundtrack featuring Depeche Mode and Folk Implosion. Didn't help.

gimme danger, little stranger, and i'll give you a piece
gimme danger, little stranger, and i'll heal your disease
there's nothing in my dreams, just some ugly memories
kiss me like the ocean breeze
