okay, so even though i've told myself again and again i'm not allowed to get addicted to any new tv shows, i've started watching everwood. i know, i'm weak, but i was promised slashiness! how am i supposed to stand strong in the face of overwhelming homoeroticism?
well, okay, it's not so overwhelming. but it's there, at least a bit. and even without the slash it's a pretty good show, good characters and stories and stuff. i've been watching for the last couple weeks and reading the twop recaps, which helped fill in the back story, so tonight's episode wasn't too confusing. the flashbacks with the mom were actually pretty cool, and really sad, but i couldn't get past this nagging feeling that i knew the actress from someplace. she just had some association for me which distracted from her mother/son interactions with ephram. i was sort of getting an evil vibe, which made me think maybe she'd been on angel, somebody with wolfram & hart, but i couldn't come up with anything definite, so i got online and checked epguides.com, and lo and behold...
she's sally! from sports night!
casey: "i say she's a very nice woman."
dan: "i say she has no reflection."
she's satan's handmaiden! that's why i was getting the evil vibe from her. i feel so much better knowing i haven't completely lost my mind.
now if i'd just stop mentally slashing ephram with his piano teacher i'd be even more certain about the whole sanity thing. given the unlikelihood of that happening, though, i think i'll settle for what i can get.
