Somebody, stop me. I discovered amazon.co.uk. Which has all these awesome shows I want. Stop me. Please. (Yes, I just might go on British shows binge. Heck, I've done every other country I could).

In other news, I finished KimuTaku's Beautiful Life. Ummm. Yeah. That was cheerful. *hysterical laughter* If you are a sadist who kills puppies with ( Read more... )

Before leaving this morning, I needed a pick-me up, so I watched a certain scene from ep 6 of Pride. Meeeeep. Still awesome.

Oh my Gosh. I am crying. It's the end of the first episode of Beautiful Life and I am crying. Not because it's angsty or anything (though voice-overs worry me) but just because...you know. It's so so so perfectly wonderful. The characters, the scenes, the drama. The works.

Oh wow. You know, the way other people feel about Long Vacation? An understated, romantic, character driven drama that just drags you in? That's the way I feel about Beautiful Life. I am so sorry, Kurosagi, but you just moved down to number 3 jdrama spot.

This couldn't get any better if it tried.
