    They need to do some appearances on premium networks for sure. Dexter, Californication, and other great shows. Glad it was UK instead of Just Boring though...
    Dexter and Californication are two damn good shows

    Have last night's show DVR'd, can't wait to see it.
    Californication did use a PJ song- Nothingman was used (I believe in a S2 episode).
    I think they used it perfectly, it was in a flashback scene and just completely gave me chills.
    I was surprised when it came on, sorry if I'm ruining the surprise for anyone, but I don't think it got much pub when it happened as far as I know.
    No time to be void or save up on life, you gotta spend it all.
  • I thought it was really cool!!! I screamed PEARL JAM and my husband jumped out of his chair! I like that show, it's a different concept.

    it's good but not better than V.

    As a huge fan of the original "V" miniseries, I was prepared to be disappointed by the new version, but I'm not. The first two episodes have been terrific.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I was thrilled to be completely surprised by this, I thought it worked great with the show. I also thought it was interesting how they mixed the verses around a little.

    My friend saw this on TV last night, he'd not bought the album, rang me to find out what song it was (he said he just recognised Eddie's voice) and went off to iTunes and downloaded the album...so it worked in terms of promotion in that case!

    they mashed it all around! it sounded so weird! why!?

    oh well .. still very cool. fucking unbelievable song getting song airtime.

    The lines they used go well with the theme of the show so far, that's my guess.

    but you agreed w/ CJMST3K's post about using it for network television? :eh:

    Especially since you know they've used PJ for Cold Case, Friday night lights, SNL, Conan, Letterman . . etc.
