Wishes come true

Kathryn will really come back to my most favored TV show, unbelievable but true. I was so excited the whole last night as all the articles popped up. What a great pre birthday present. I must have done something right the last year. Now Kathryn’s coming back and in two weeks Vincent in Poland (thanks so much girls for the theater tickets). It is a great time and I’m so happy.

Therefore I want again linking to this Set Tour with Jeff Goldblum. Just look the first few minutes and sigh with me.

The team of Goldblum and Roman venture into the hallowed halls of the Major Case Squad office!

Here is also the official press release from USA (I didn’t see a statement on their homepage yet, but think there will be something very soon) and a lot of internet notes I collected. In the end everyone wrote the same, but these news could be screamed into the world a little longer.
