White Collar 4x11 Episode Thoughts!

[cookielaura]

Let’s all pretend I’m not really late with this episode reaction, kay? Awesome. I’m getting it up before the next episode anyway, so technically I am on time. And regardless, I wish to record my thoughts!

I was super excited about the new episode and then, I have to admit, a tiny bit disappointed. Not that it wasn’t good, it just wasn’t amazing.

I know a lot of folks gripe about the age of the kid (and I'm assuming the kid actor is older than three, just to make sure he could deliver his lines and hit his mark, etc), but I gotta admit, my biggest peeve is that he doesn't look at all the way I imagined wee!Neal. *pouts* LOL!

And yes, it's ridiculously hot when Peter tells off Neal. *swoon*

While I don't really mind either way re: James, I see the potential for hurt (and Burke!comfort \o/) and general angst for Neal, so I'm all for James! LOL! *iz evil* What can I say, I love emotional whump, and after the last scene, I double-dare everyone not to be affected by teary-eyed!Neal. That scene KILLED me. *smishes Neal hard*

Arghhh I know! I've read so much kid!fic that I have a solid idea of tiny!Neal with little dark curls and huge eyes and dimples, and I don't think the casting people quite agreed :(

That last scene was definitely heart-wrenching. Aww, Neal's awkward stiff arms at first when he doesn't know whether to join in the hug!! He is adorable. And there's definitely major H/C potential...I hope they don't skimp on the C!

Did you see the baby/toddler pics of the WC cast in...People magazine, I think it was? Matty didn't look the way I imagined him as wee!Matty. Not one bit! *boggles* He was totes adorbs and all, but...not what I imagined him to look like. *boggles some more* So, maybe wee!Neal really doesn't have little dark curls and dimples and such. *ponders*

Ooh thankyou, I didn't know they existed but I've just found them! Wow, Sharif and Tiffani look SO much like they do now! And awww, Tim looks so much like a mini Peter, even personality-wise! But yeah, Matt doesn't look anything like I thought lol! Very cute still of course :)

Hmm. I am still going to think of mini!Neal with curls :D

Also, when I googled 'White Collar cast baby' to find the pics, it brought me up the twitter pic for @WCwriters which I hadn't seen before, of a little toddler at a laptop with a tiny waistcoat and tie, who I assume is meant to represent Neal - very sweet! (bit of a weird choice for their twitter pic though?!)

Actually, I think wee!Willie was THE cutest baby EVER. *pinches his cheeks* Everyone looked like their adult self, more or less...except Matt! O.o LOL!

I LOVE the WCwriters toddler!!! :D
