Idiot Box: Mr P & I watched more Alphas and so far (only so far mind you) it is the most intelligent take on the superheroes problem I've seen yet. Recommended for people who liked the concept of Heroes and the X-Men but couldn't stop eye-rolling at the stupidity of those specific implementations. (I hear some of the X-Men movies have been good.

I started watching Alphas because of the actor who plays Gary (he was on Bones). It does have a moment or two that fall flat, but over-all I enjoyed it and look forward to the second season.

Yay drunken!Giles. *raises a glass*

Gary is a fabulous character. We're not all that far into the season (4 eps, I think?) but he's already got complex motivations and has grown far more than I expected they'd let him grow.

Gary and Bill together are excellent. :D

We just this minute finished watching "Bill and Gary's Excellent Adventure." That's an awesome awesome pair of characters.

*giggle* Ooooh, yes. My favourite line is still the one where Gary's complaining that Bill doesn't have any grenades. :D
