I was idling through Tumblr, as you do, when a Janeway/Chakotay fanart popped up on my dash. Bam, instant feels. Janeway and Chakotay, oh man. The ship that introduced me to fanfiction, back in the dim and distant mid-90s, when we had one computer in the school library with dial-up and I would spend my entire lunchbreak discovering a whole new ( Read more... )

♥ Day Nine: Favorite female character in a drama show

I'm going to go for Starbuck on this one. Yes, you could argue Battlestar Galacticais more sci-fi than drama, but I disagree. Just because something is set in space doesn't negate it from being drama, and I defy you to find a show less dramatic than BSG at its height ( Read more... )

I finished watching The West Wing and since we're still in the interminable summer TV hiatus, I decided to embark on another re-watch. I was going to do Battlestar Galactica, but I decided on something else instead. Decided to go back to the show of my heart ( Read more... )

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

Hmmm, this is tough. There are so many kisses to choose from! Josh and Donna's first kiss in The West Wing, Harry and Ruth's first kiss when she's leaving forever in Spooks, Adama and Roslin's first kiss in Battlestar Galactica... Actually, this is hard because I don't really tend to ship het very much; it's mostly slash ( Read more... )

Bloody Emmys. Wouldn't know good TV if it came up and whacked them around with a two-by-four. How can you get better than Battlestar Galactica? And yet no one substantial nomination.

*sighs*

And I'm torn for Best Actor - Simon Baker, Gabriel Byrne or Hugh Laurie? Don't make me choose!

But seriously, no noms for Eddie and Mary? They were amazing. ( Read more... )

I'd never quite forgotten that Edward James Olmos played Justice Mendoza in The West Wing, but it had sort of slipped my mind until I was watching the show this morning and was all, 'Woah, Adama, what the hell?'

Martin Sheen and Edward James Olmos onscreen together - is there anything cooler?
