Off-Topicality
By Anthony | April 11th, 2006 | 12:29 amFirst things first: If you’re planning on eating anytime in the near future, I suggest you make Laurie’s Creamy Garlicky Tomato Soup. We tried it tonight. Very easy to make. Looks yummy. Tastes even better.
Next: Has anyone noticed that the soundtrack to Fox’s 24 seems particularly good this season? I never really paid attention to the music before, but this year it seems like every episode has at least one especially funky track on it. (Tonight’s was during the scene where Chloe was in the server room.)
Speaking of 24, everytime I see a trailer for Kiefer Sutherland’s new movie “The Sentinel” I can’t help but think to myself, “24: The Movie”. Watching Sutherland run around yelling and waving a gun immediately calls to mind Jack Bauer. I’m sure the movie is totally different – except for the whole government agent angle. And the assasinating the President thing… ok, well maybe it is “24: The Movie”.

Yes! For the first time last night, for the scene you mentioned. Any idea what it was? It kind of had a Peter Gunn flavor.

Thanks! The leftovers make a pretty good sauce, too.

Yeah, the score this season has been very cool. The track in the bank was good too. Loved that scene in last night’s episode… “What were you doing O’Brian?” “You’re kidding right? Want me to write you a report?”
Gotta love Chloe! 🙂

Uh, that’s the one I was thinking of, actually. So how do we find out what it was?

The music from the server room scene bled over into one of the bank scenes, so we may be talking about the same song. It definitely had a Peter Gunn kind of feel to it. I don’t know how to find out what it was though. Probably an original composition by Sean Callery. You can get some of the music from the first three seasons. The second track (up and down stairs) on that CD sounds similar to last night’s song, but I can’t remember exactly what it sounded like. TiVo anyone (Stew’s Friend 🙂 )?
And yes, Chloe is definitely a great character. The actress that plays her has had a few articles written about her recently too, so it seems that a lot of people agree.
Laurie: No, thank *you*! We did have leftovers, so in addition to getting lunch out of it, I’ll have to see if I can try the sauce thing.
