First and foremost, thanks to a secret benefactor (old friend of the blog back in the podcast days, Chris jones) we now own the URL www.stealingcable.tv. Take that you internet squatters! What does this mean for the blog? Nothing really. Now we just have a much catchier website address to put in our message board signatures and our AIM profiles. The new website will just automatically redirect you to this same Blogspot site.
Secondly, a real favorite around the offices of Stealing Cable was ABC's now cancelled "Daybreak" starring Taye "You would be surprised at how short he is in real life" Diggs. Thankfully, the "Daybreak" production was able to film a full 13 episodes, which take the story of Detective Hopper through a clear beginning and end. ABC has been gracious enough to post the unaired episodes on ABC.com in their entirety. Let me just say, the show just continues to get better. The last on air episode had Det. Hopper catching up with the shadowy figure, who greets him at the quarry when he makes a wrong move in one of his repeating days.
The episodes that follow exponentially increase the size and scope of the conspiracy while actually answering a lot of questions about the many clues Hopper has been trying to put together. Assuming this show is able to maintain this breakneck pace all the way through 13 episodes, it might just go down as one of the true classics of the genre. As of now, it is easily blowing any season of 24 away.
