Well, this is definitely the cutest thing I've seen all day...

While this is not exactly a television topic (since here he's promoting the film Atonement), my love of James McAvoy is television related because I first fell in love with him while watching (bootleg) DVDs of the fantastic British series Shameless. So that's the justification, but the truth is that I just love James McAvoy and this picture. Anyway, here's James proving that boys can rock the over-the-shoulder red carpet pose too...

Ha ha ha. He's not just extremely hot, but also adorable!

To prove that I don't just love James, but also love his wife Anne-Marie Duff (Shameless's fantastic Fiona), here's a pic of the two of them later at opening night of the Venice Film Festival:

Anne-Marie is awesome and looking very cute with her Joan of Arc haircut. But, seriously: Luckiest. Girl. Ever.

Kyle XY: Hallucinating, Keclan, and skinny pants

Kyle XY:

Hmm, you can tell we're approaching the end of Kyle XY's summer season because things are getting intense and Kyle's striking out on his own to save the world for the good of the Tragers. I guess there weren't a whole lot of new revelations emerging in this episode, but it was interesting to see Kyle's inner battle about whether he owes Jessi his help. But, first things first:

Kyle's pants were really skinny tonight! When did Kyle get so trendy?

I liked how Kyle told Amanda that there wasn't anything physical going on between him and Jessi and she just decided to believe him without asking the obvious question, "Then why in the heck were the two of you lifting up your shirts in front of each other when I walked in the room?" Seems to me that she deserved some sort of explanation for that strange behavior.

Speaking of the lifting up of shirts and such things: I like Josh and Andy together, but watching them making out and groping each other was just awkward and kinda gross. Especially because Kyle and Amanda have been in love with each other for over a year and we've only seen them kiss like twice!

Speaking of Kyle and Amanda not kissing: Amanda is having a hard time deciding whether to go away to school or stay with Kyle and she decides to play the piano to help figure it out. Umm, how about you make out with your gorgeous boyfriend for awhile? I know kissing Kyle would sure help my decision-making process...

Speaking of illogical strategies: Lori's goal for her big revenge on Jessi is to ruin Jessi's reputation? Like, how could you make Jessi's reputation any worse? Everyone already thinks she's weird and creepy.

Speaking of weird and creepy: Back to Josh and Andy. I'm pretty sure he said that it was the last time he could touch "them boobs." Was that ridiculous grammatical error not worthy of doing another take on that scene?

Cool that Kyle now has the power to hallucinate himself having philosophical conversations with anyone he wants. Or, um, he's becoming schizophrenic. Unfortunately, all Dream Adam can do is ask questions and restate what we already know, which is not super helpful.

While Kyle clearly is more in control of his special abilities, I've noticed that Jessi has certainly surpassed him in the ability to express human emotion. This episode really did a lot for turning her fairly unsympathetic character into someone you really felt sorry for.

And back to the mythology... It was nice that Nicole and Steven finally realized that something is still going on with Kyle. I'm a little confused though why Foss can withstand the brain scan thing but the general consensus is that Kyle wouldn't be able to take it? I guess they're going to use it at a higher power, maybe.

Good quotes:

Amanda: "Kyle, usually the whole multiple question thing is cute, but I'm really struggling here."

Hilary: "The intensity of the Kyle/Declan friendship--we'll call it 'Keclan'--helped ruin the Lori/Declan relationship."

Declan: "You really want to run this metaphor into the ground, don't you?"

Lori: "It's what I do."

and boy is that the truth....

Greek:

I enjoyed Dale IMing Rusty while they were both in the same room, because the IMing-your-roommate-while-you're-both-in-the-room thing definitely does happen sometimes.

Other highlights were Clark Duke singing (rather well), the band name "Darwin Lied," Rusty asking what in the hell kind of show they were putting on (because I was also confused about that), and this rather astute observation about the strippers and their money:

Rusty: "Look where she's putting those bills!"

Other guy: "Which will be put right back in to circulation. By the end of the week it could be under some kid's pillow."

Yuck.

My Boys:

This episode was all right. It lost major points from me though with it's handling of the Mary Lou Retton leotard. Although I'm a hardcore gymnastics fan, I do enjoy a good gymnastics joke... but this scenario didn't result in any. They did do a good job of making fun of Brendan's behavior though (ex. calling him "Seacrest"). I thought it was kind of weird that they spent a good portion of the episode skewering Sex and the City, seeing as that's the show that comes on right after My Boys on TBS. I suppose that was the 'in-joke.' Some of the SATC spoof was pretty funny, especially how P.J. thought all of those women were horrible.

Oh, and didn't P.J. do the "player gets called up to the majors" metaphor before? Like, at least five other times? I've said it before: the voice over has got to go, folks.

But, the big news: Michael Landes is in next week's ep! Yea! I love Lois & Clark's original Jimmy Olsen! First Jeremy Sisto and now this! Score!

Damages: Yea for lots of Jimmy Cooper!

Damages:
How weird is it that Jimmy Cooper's biking buddy is the dad from Grounded for Life? They're sure liking their spandex. Goodness, the game theory behind Jimmy's job change decision is intimidating.

Did Arthur's lawyer say, "The sun don't shine on the same dog's tail all week?" Ha ha--that's hilarious!

Whoa, Arthur's in cahoots with the head employee guy? That's crafty and sneaky.

Ellen's mom is George O'Malley's mom?

Oh no, the group hired Jimmy! Patty's going to kill him. Good, Jimmy, be a hard ass! I like my Jimmy Cooper when he's not a push over. Unfortunately, that's not going to last long... He should have seen Patty's reaction coming. I knew she was going to tell him he wouldn't be able to cut it. Oh, Jimmy should have held out for the name on the door.

I hope this all doesn't end badly for Jimmy. I love Jimmy. Even though he clearly cannot hold his drink. (I don't think Katie's going to be bringing him into her life of "narcotics and intercourse" anytime soon.) Is he hallucinating, or did Patty follow him into the men's bathroom? Either seems very possible, but it looks like this occasion is a hallucination.

If Katie got screwed over, Jennie Garth's husband sure isn't fairing much better.

Oh no! That's not Jimmy attacking Ellen is it? Because I don't know if I can handle that. By the end of this, all the "good" people will turn out to be evil and all the "bad" people will probably turn out good. Or, more likely, everyone will just end up evil.

So Patty hid the body and cleaned up the scene? Why was Ellen in Patty's apartment wearing yoga clothes/pajamas? The body of the now-dead attacker sure does look like Jimmy. I guess it could also be Jennie Garth's husband though since it looks like Ellen's getting tangled up with him next episode.

SYTYCD: Congrats Sabra!!!

So You Think You Can Dance:

Wow! I really thought this competition was anyone's game, but I was still stunned that Sabra pulled out the win! Good for her! I'm glad that a girl finally won it this time around. And I think it's awesome that Sabra's only been dancing for four years. That means, four years from now, none of us will have an excuse for not winning SYTYCD.

Also, I think Sabra deserves the $250,000 for all the times Dominic dropped her (especially that really nasty time her head smacked the floor in the middle of the group number).

I was surprised that Lacey finished in fourth place. That means she ties her cousin Heidi's finish last year! I was really glad though that it came down to Sabra and Danny, because I thought they really deserved to be the top two. Good job on this one, America!

My highlights of the evening:

• the Pasha/Lauren Transformers hip hop routine
• the Pasha/Sara West Coast Swing routine
• the flashback to the audition when they made that one guy do a swing dance--that was the funniest, awesome-ist moment of the season
• the Sara/Jesus hobos routine (I'd kind of forgotten about that one. It's cool that Sara was in three of the judges' favorite dances.)
• the Danny/Lacey samba (or was it a mambo?)

The lowlight of the evening: there was a Pussycat Doll in a box! Eeeeeeeew! I can't watch that!

And, speaking of gross musical acts, what in the hell has happened to Ryan Cabrera's hair? It used to be kind of suspect, but now it's hideous!

I'm bummed that another season of SYTYCD has wrapped up already! This show is so much fun; even though I wasn't as engrossed as I was last season, I'm really going to miss it. It's sooooooo much better than Dancing with the Stars, but somehow that show does multiple cycles each year, while SYTYCD is only on in the summer.

SYTYCD: Finale! It's decision time.

It's part one of the finale of So You Think You Can Dance!

Here's my commentary on the whole (too long and drawn-out) shebang:

Opening: Yep, even after the opening montage, I'm still pretty bored with these four dancers.

Random. Commercial for Nashville. If FOX is so proud of bringing us The O.C., why did it cancel it in the fourth season in favor of "Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader?"

Group number: Broadway. That was ok, I guess, but that was no "Sexy Back," the fantastic final four group number of season 2 (btw, how did Wade Robson go from this to little foxes in less than a year?!). The camera work bugged me because they were showing only one or two of the dancers at a time and you couldn't grasp the whole picture.

Lacey's solo: Judging from Nigel's comments, I can tell he doesn't want her to win. I guess he's of the school of thought that two Schwimmer winners in a row would be bad.

Sabra and Neil: Hip hop. It was danced ok, but it was just not the coolest routine ever. There was a lot of bouncing, but it wasn't very hard-hitting (which seems to be the idea of hip hop, at least according to this show). Not nearly as cool as Pasha and Lacey's hip hop routine last week.

Lacey and Danny: Viennese waltz. Not another Viennese waltz... and why do we have to waltz to Avril Levine? Ugh. Now Danny seems more like a big dork than a snob, which is a huge step up in my book. This was a very lovely routine. The best part was Danny and Lacey getting into an argument over whether she was telling the truth about putting the Popsicle stick in her glove. That was hilarious. She's telling this long, detailed story and Danny just flat-out says she's lying. HA!

Neil's solo: What I like best about Neil are his jumps--the amplitude and extension on them are sick.

Lacey and Sabra: Jazz. Foxes? Really? I'm confused: why are the foxes wearing kimonos and holding scarves in their mouths? The foxes seemed a little hard-hitting and spastic. Ha ha, despite that, I liked it. I thought Sabra and Lacey did a great job of performing it.

Danny's solo: Nice series of leaps. Sheesh, Travis was completely beside himself over this... Oh well, if Travis liked it, I like it. Ok, whoa, I just rewatched it and Danny did so many consecutive pirouettes that I couldn't even count them. It was ridiculous. Give Danny the title just for that. I would like to see Danny relate to his music a little more, though, which is something that I always thought Travis did really, really well.

Danny and Neil: Contemporary. Is this favoritism? The two girls have to do something about foxes and the boys get to do contemporary, which is basically both their specialty? Ooooh--dance fighting! Fun! Neil plays a disturbed/paranoid monarch frighteningly well. Hmm, maybe this performance was believable because they really don't like each other...they certainly don't seem to enjoy standing next to each other to hear the judges comments.

Sabra solo: Probably my favorite because you could really feel the passion behind what she was doing. I love that she's only been dancing for four years.

Lacey and Neil: the Lindy Hop? This looks dangerous. But, that was a fun routine. It was great how they were scared out of their minds, but kept their faces looking like it was super easy.

Danny and Sabra: Cha Cha! Yea! There hasn't been enough Latin lately (other than the Pasa Doble, which I've had enough of). Why wasn't Danny wearing shoes to practice with sabra when she's wearing spike heels? The beginning of this routine didn't stun me, but the end was really nice. They seemed like they were in a little over their heads with the cha cha, but they ended up making it work. It makes me giggle when they make Danny wiggling his hips; you can just tell it's not quite what he wants to be doing.

Hmm, well, I'm at a loss. Any one of them winning is fine with me. I would like a girl to win, but I'm not sure that Lacey or Sabra did enough to pull it off. I guess I'll finally climb on to the Danny bandwagon because of that insane solo pirouetting and the cha cha hip-wiggling. And I don't mind that his personality doesn't totally translate in a reality show format. That's probably a good thing.

Damages: The spotlight is a pretty gosh darn awful place to be, indeed.

Damages:
In the interest of time, another list:

• Whoa, it's fun to be Katie... Her life really is a blur of narcotics and intercourse! Sweet :-)
• Ugh, it would be hard to recognize someone you saw five years ago from far away when you were drunk and drugged up...
• Well, now we know that Katie lives through this whole ordeal because she's around to ID her brother's body (in quite a dramatic fashion!).
• Arthur seems to spend a lot of time skimming his pool.
• At least in this show, Jimmy Cooper's daughter seems a little more promising than either Marissa or Kaitlyn.
• Geez, lawyers in NYC....yikes. They will blackmail you right into taking an extremely well-paying, prestigious job. Ridiculous!
• It seems kind of skanky to hit on the surgeon who just performed your grandpa's heart surgery.
• Oh, it's never good to pass someone else's testimony off as your own. I learned that lesson from Days of Our Lives for crying out loud.
• "I also warned you that the spotlight is a pretty God damn awful place to be." --Patty
• Uh oh, I think they created a monster with Katie--she's become a little too good at this whole deposition thing.
• Oh, Jennie Garth's husband set Katie up...I saw that coming.
• One of the highlights of watching Damages is the commercial for Nip/Tuck Hollywood with the awesome "Wicked Games" cover paying in the background.
• It's creepy how good Patty is at controlling everything.
• The girl who's grandpa is in the hospital is a huge skank! Geez. Although I guess even the grandfathers of huge sluts need medical attention occasionally...
• Who is that baby?

Kyle XY, Greek, My Boys

Kyle XY:

I'm weeks behind posting this, so we're going to go with a list:

• Kyle remembers what Amanda was wearing when he first saw her! That's so sweet. Oh, wait, of course he does; he remembers everything.
• Steven is really dense that he hasn't noticed how weird his new job is. There's no reason a normal office has to look this creepy. Does none of this strike him as weird?
• Oh my gosh! For a second there, Kyle was quoting "Lose Yourself"! I knew he liked Pachabel, but I didn't know Eminem had left such an impression on him :-)
• And finally, Nicole notices the freakish similarities between Jessi and Kyle. All it took was hitting her over the head with it...
• Ok, there's probably more pressing stuff in the safe than info that Paige exists... Jessi needs to keep her eyes on the big picture.
• Ha ha--Declan's part in the plan is vandalism? Playing to our strengths, I see...
• Declan: "Why not just taser me?"
  Foss: "I considered it."
• Shoot! Lori shows up just in time to entirely ruin the big, elaborate plan! See? This is what I was talking about last week: you have to let the girls in the freaking loop!
• Paige is a cutie.
• It was brilliant how Kyle timed the elevator so that Valentine would reach in just as the doors were closing and Kyle could snag the ring off his hand! How did he know though that Valentine would reach in with the correct hand?
• Oh, Declan, for God's sake, why'd you fall down the stairs?!
• Wow, Jessi drew Paige one heck of a lion. Especially using just that one crayon.
• And I missed the whole end (and next week's previews) because I switched over to SYTYCD to have my heart broken by Pasha getting kicked off. Poor Pasha.

Greek:

Quote of the Night:
Besides girls, Cappie's other interests are "beer, Days of Our Lives, and mentoring youth."

Whoa and they followed up the hilarious Days of Our Lives reference with a Sydney Bristow reference (though not quite seemlessly used)? This is getting out of hand.

My Boys:
Hmm, one way to keep me from wondering why PJ and Bobby don't hook up (again) already is to bring in Jeremy freakin Sisto as a love interest! Nicely done. (Although I guess I missed Jeremy's episode thanks to the Great Pittsburgh TV Shortage of August '07. Crap. Perhaps it's online; I'll have to check.)

SYTYCD: Pasha, please don't go!

Hmm, well, all of my TV watching tonight has been extremely soured by Pasha getting the boot from So You Think You Can Dance.

Nooooooooo, not my dancing Russian Ryan Atwood!

I fully agree that Neil and Danny are both really, really, really good dancers, but, in my opinion, they kind of cancel each other out. If I watch Neil dance, I have no great urge to then see Danny and vice versa. Pasha, on the other hand, is a totally different flavor, which is why I thought he should be in the finale (so much so that I actually voted for the first time this season). And he made such a cute nerdy hip-hopper...

No surprise that Lauren was eliminated. She's really improved the last few weeks, but I never thought she could surmount the tremendous momentum that both Lacey and Sabra have been riding basically since the competition began.

Grr. While I think the overall quality of the dancing this year might be better than that of last year, I have not been nearly as captivated by the dancer's personalities this time around. That is, except for Pasha, who is such a sweetie. And now he's gone :-(

I won't be watching the finale with all that much interest in who wins. I'd like to see a girl win, especially now that the two final guys seem really similar to me. I'm not always as enthusiastically riding the Sabra bandwagon as everyone else seems to be, but I'm also not sure I want another Schwimmer to win. It seems weird to not care who wins after watching and enjoying so much of this competition--especially since last year I absolutely loved three of the top four dancers and really liked the fourth dancer. I guess I'll just wait and see how it goes on Wednesday.

Psych: The race is on!

Psych:

Wow, I was pretty blown away by tonight's episode of Psych (especially after tonight's Monk did nothing for me at all). I haven't been so excited by Psych's last few eps, but this one was really good. When Psych is on its game, it approaches some of the funniest stuff on TV (at least the TV I watch, which, well, is most of it).

Highlights:

• Gus: "Some people are just born evil...like the kid from The Omen, the Children of the Corn, Chad Michael Murray." (fantastic!)
• Shawn: "Good call on the mini bat."
• Gus's random theory that Teen Wolf has a faulty premise because if you went to high school with a werewolf, you wouldn't decide you liked him just because he was a good basketball player. "I wouldn't be lining up to sell t-shirts with 'I heart wolf!' on them."
• Gus: "I think he looks like an evil creamsicle."
• Shawn: "I'm wearing a shirt designed by a monkey coming off a sugar high."

I also really enjoyed Little Shawn and Big Shawn uniting in the memory sequence and talking about their hair. Any plot device to get Little Shawn more screen time is ok in my book because he's adorable. And I totally called Little Gus being the mystery spitballer :-)

Woot! More David Anders!

According to TVGuide.com's Michael Ausiello, the Heroes execs are promoting David Anders (my favorite Alias-ian of them all) from recurring character to series regular already, before any of his episodes have even aired! Yea David! I'm glad the Heroes people have recognized what I've been saying to everyone who will listen for years: David Anders is a freakin star. Now if only he could figure out how to look less goofy in red carpet pictures (like the one in Ausiello's blog). How such a gorgeous boy can take such dorky pictures is beyond me.

And major kudos to the Heroes execs for figuring out that the only way to get me at all interested in the happenings of feudal Japan was to put Julian Sark smack in the middle of it. That was genius.

Damages: 'This is going to be a shitty week.'

Damages:
Observations....

• Ha ha ha. I love Patty's reaction to receiving a grenade in the mail: "This is going to be a shitty week."
• Maybe it's the Alias fan in me, but I was expecting the package to at least contain someone's severed finger... I mean, come on now.
• Hmm, Katie's a little skanky. Ohh, and her boyfriend's a little married. Great.
• Why do I always feel like Jimmy Cooper could use some help from Sandy Cohen?
• I thought it was hilarious that Patty's son hacked in to the school computer system and even managed to get the passwords to personal faculty email accounts! Score!
• The family therapist has some sort of uncanny resemblance to Joaquin Phoenix. I miss Joaquin...
• Why is Patty so creepy about everything involving family and personal lives. Is she bipolar?
• Uh oh, Patty mentioned the bookends. That can't be good.
• Hmm, Patty has a bad history with disgruntled CEOs. I guess that's no surprise. "Taking power away from a man is a dangerous thing. Someone always pays."
• Patty's kid is just as creepy as she is. I knew she was involved in his "kidnapping" in some way. I didn't realize that he was behind the grenade though. But I'm not really sure that I care. Unless this kid somehow becomes relevant to the big story with Ellen, Ted Dansen, Katie, and the court case, I'm not sure I want to be wasting time delving into his story. I think I accidentally stopped paying attention during the scene with him and Patty in the restaurant. Oops.
• If I were Ellen, I think I may have called off this engagement too. She and her fiance are so boring together.
• I'm glad they brought back the big, showy, movie-esque music from the pilot for the flashback at the end. That music was my favorite part of the pilot, I think. But, oh dear, who was trying to kill Ellen? I hope it wasn't Jimmy Cooper...

Next week's episode looks intense! But this line cracked me up: "Would you characterize your life as one big blur of narcotics and intercourse?" Ha! I can't wait for that.

Kyle XY: We're not twelve-year-olds at summer camp.

Kyle XY:
Lori's having a bit of a rough time getting over her attack, so she.... decides to go hang out in the woods right near the former Zzyzx headquarters. Wow. For once I agree with Declan; that was a really horrible idea...and an extremely slap-dash, ill-conceived and heavy handed plot device on the part of the writers. But once you got past the stupid premise, this episode was rather good.

Hmm, this episode did, however, bring my hopes for a Loryle hook-up crashing down around me, a la the weird, automatic metal doors in the old underground Zzyzx headquarters. My bet is that the Kyle XY execs realized there have been some Lori/Kyle sparks flying the last few eps and decided to squash them as hard as they could in this ep. Why else would Kyle make such a point of calling Lori his "sister" and Lori make such a point of calling Kyle her "brother." There were three sibling references in the episode. Crap!

Not that Kyle really has much room in his life for Lori now that both Amanda and Jessi want him. But question: did Jessi suddenly forsake Declan for Kyle because Zzyzx reprogrammed her, or because she got a good look at Declan's hideous shirt? What was that thing? I welcomed the ill-conceived outing to the woods just because it meant he would put a jacket over that weird, shiny thing.

Notables:

• Kern was back. I had forgotten all about him. He was a jerk!
• Josh: "Tell her 'no' and feel free to slap her upside the head."
• Declan: "We're not twelve-year-olds at summer camp." (Declan speaking reason kind of disconcerts me sometimes.)
• Amanda: "Kyle's totally Fred, minus the blond hair and the scarf." (Whoa, Amanda said something funny! Write down the day!)
• Andy: "I can't believe you brought Sour Patch Kids, but no matches." (Oh, Andy, if you had seen an episode of Kyle XY before, you'd believe it. Trust me.)
• The reprogramming was unnecessary. Even if Jessi hadn't been in love with Kyle before, she definitely would have been after he saved her in the tunnel. Who wouldn't be after that?
• More proof that Kyle XY has tapped into my iPod: the use of "Fire Island AK" and "The Funeral," two of the songs from my Best Songs of 2006 play list. (And, incidentally, the second time today I've heard "The Funeral" used; the first was in the trailer for the movie Penelope, which I really want to see...but we'll save discussing my undying love for James McAvoy for another time.)
• So the real person we're not supposed to trust is Taylor? That's kind of anticlimactic since we haven't even seen that guy in weeks.
• And we finally kind of have an explanation for Andy's headaches. Perhaps Josh will learn some life lessons from this situation--he needs a few.

I realize that TV shows about boys with superpowers don't tend to like letting the girls on the show know anything at all, but it seems to me like Kyle would have much fewer problems if he let Lori and Amanda in the loop a little bit. For one, there would be no daytrips to abandoned tunnels. Also, Amanda would understand that Kyle can withstand more methane exposure than the rest of them. And, next week, she wouldn't be taking a page out of the Lois Lane Handbook for Girlfriends of Superheroes and bitching Kyle out for missing a date because he was off dealing with some superhero problem.

Sweetest Exchange of the Night:
Amanda: Does this mean that you're impressed with me too?
Kyle: I'm always impressed with you.

Greek:

I didn't enjoy this episode as much as I liked last week's. There were, after all, no references to running on vomit :-)

Rusty's new girlfriend was cute. It was nice that Casey's boyfriend got to be not a complete jerk this episode. Dale (Clark and Michael's Clark) stole the show. My favorite part was when he was trying to have a conversation a dumb kid at the party was like, "You go to college?" Ha ha. I definitely ran into a few kids I was baffled were college students during my college career too.

My Boys:
I loved the comparison of Bobby to "a young Harry Hamlin." Hilarious. Too bad Harry Hamlin scares the crap out of me thanks to Veronica Mars.

Nine Crimes

The Nine:
Well, The Nine is back. I'm not entirely sure why; it's not like we're going to get any closure here because they definitely stopped production before wrapping up the story.

"9 Crimes" is a Damien Rice song, which I thought would make it a good title for the post, but I'm pretty sure that far more than just nine crimes occurred during that bank robbery. Murder, attempted murder, drug possession, kidnapping, assault, etc., etc., etc.

This was actually a pretty great episode. The in-the-bank stuff was much more exciting than it was in some other episodes (the climatic scene of Scott Wolf running down a hallway was especially boring, for example). The only part of this ep that I really didn't care about was Kim Raver and her stupid boyfriend fighting over the D.A. position. I'm way over that whole situation.

I'm really excited about how next week Tim Daly's wondering if any of the hostages were somehow involved in the robbery. That would be freaking cool. What would be amazing would be if perfect Lizzie (she did seem pretty darn chummy with the cute robber) or Felicia (also chummy with cute robber and could be using "amnesia" as a way of protecting herself) were involved.
