Very quick round up

bop_radarSo my life is somewhat manic at the moment and will probably remain so until April and possibly beyond. I apologise for being behind catching-up on my f'list--point me to anything important! *g*
A few very fleeting thoughts on various fannish matters:
-Smallville: Season 9? I think I just feel exhausted. Do they actually have anything left they can ruin? Oh wait. Yes they do.
- BSG: WTFUCKITY fuck? Srsly that show gets more batshit by the week. I tried a new tactic this week and pretended I'd never seen an episode before. It still made no sense but the characters were slightly more sympathetic and I really liked the Cylons. The humans were shit though and I wouldn't have tuned back in. *BG* Which brings me to...
- Law and Order UK: Thank god Jamie has another show! \o/ A show that actually APPRECIATES him. OK, they do have him playing someone markedly less well educated than he really is, but at least they a) showcase his looks, b) let him do action, c) have him onscreen almost constantly (or it felt like that in comparison to BSG!) and d) gave him flirty moment with Freema, who, hi, is a total babe and I am shamelessly shipping them already. :D I don't give a toss about the plot. I may watch with the sound turned down. It will still be more interesting than that stuff RDM is churning out.
Tomorrow is another high alert day for fires and there are still many around Melbourne. I think we're all holding our breath hoping against another Black Saturday. Please no.

Date: 2009-03-01 04:12 am (UTC)OMG ME TOO. Thank god I'm not alone. I was so worried that I was the only one who was thinking "ooh Matt/Alesha, yay!" I swear, someone needs to take away my shipper goggles before I watch a show. ;)
BSG: WTFUCKITY fuck? Srsly that show gets more batshit by the week.
Don't even get me started on this week's ep. I was so NOT interested in Starbuck's scenes. I actually fast-forwarded every part with her in it. OTOH, I really liked the Chief and Boomer storyline. And poor Athena, losing her child again (they really need to create safe words and implant a tracking device into Hera) and having to watch Helo and Boomer have sex. Which I had huge issues with. How did you NOT realize it wasn't Athena, Helo? I mean, seriously? SERIOUSLY?
Also, WHERE IS LEE? I am sick of getting episode after episode where he's only in one scene, and even then it's usually a forgettable scene (so to speak). Like

Date: 2009-03-01 04:46 am (UTC)Not at all surprised to hear that Special-Needs Sam is still hogging all the screentime. I predicted that months ago. The writers never saw Lee as important at all. And RDM is a fucktard.
But let's talk Matt/Alesha...!! YES! I'm glad I am not alone. They are so very pretty. And hey, there was NOTHING else of interest going on in that show, what else can one do but ship?!

Date: 2009-03-01 04:59 am (UTC)But Matt/Alesha... YES. THEY ARE GORGEOUS TOGETHER. And OMG, they're not just pretty faces! Oh Jamie, why won't you love me, why won't you love me?! *pines* ;D
And maybe I'm just a sucker for procedurals, but I actually enjoyed the show. Of course, the actual lawyer/court stuff flew right over my head since I'm American, but watching them investigate (and
LeeMatt look frakking gorgeous)? Totally there. I also really liked the dynamic between Matt and what's-his-face (the partner). But whatever. If Jamie wasn't on this show, I probably wouldn't be watching. *shrugs*
