Blog! I have not abandoned you. It is just a ridiculously crazy few weeks at work as I am helping my boss get everything wrapped up before she heads out on maternity leave. Hence, the dearth of recaps of individual shows lately. However, as new shows are coming back now, I promise I will get back into that as soon as things slow down. Also I finally saw Julie & Julia and owe you a review. Soon, friends!
What does "Kat Ex Machina" mean? The blog's title, and my online moniker, is taken from the popular plot device in storytelling, Deus ex machina, which means "God from a machine." It comes from the ancient Greek theatre, in which actors representing God would swoop in to the action and save the characters from a seemingly unsolvable situation. It is still used frequently as a contrivance in film and television. Kat Ex Machina means Kat (me) from a machine, and as my blog entries on a computer are about the best way for me to broadcast my trivial thoughts, it seemed appropriate.
