this is a little off topic but...
preface this by saying I am addicted to the Korean soaps, so much so that I will be learning Korean so I can follow the show better (the translations are hysterically bad in too many cases).
There is a new show (actually a Japanese soap) about three young single girls looking for love - and one is a lighting tech in a big theater in Tokyo. And she does legitmate things, hanging lights, running the spot, etc etc - her fellow spot op (who is to be her love interest, I think), who just came back from the US....they all go to the US, it's weird... calls their spot cues together with "go" as if no one ever thought of that. So far, it's fun to see the job actually being done right (of course, it's only the 2nd episode).
