So I'm up in NYC for Chistmas, as usual. Nothing really of interest, same old same old. Helped the parents with shopping Sunday, and got my usual Singa's fix. Christmas eve mass, had my godson and my other nephew and his half sister along, where they misbehaved in church. Since durlxnemesis couldn't make it because his jeep got rear-ended, he joined us via ( Read more... )

TV commentary:

Once Upon A Time- Weird, Krycek was just on Supernatural this past Friday, now he's here again. Even weirder, young Peter and young Olivia from Fringe are paired together again as Hansel and Gretel. Is it just a coincidence, or is this another weird Abrams fanwank? Its amusing that Gretel is the smart, tough bad-ass, and Hansel is ( Read more... )

This is actually an expanded version of one of the earlier trailers, wherein the Wolfpack encounters a Spec Ops team.

I didn't realize the character had actually been referred to as Prune Face in the Expanded Universe. Which, given his prune face is a trait of his ( Read more... )

TV Commentary:

Leverage- Okay, this was prolly the most hilarious and amusing ep of the show yet, even if it was a little corny there at the end. ( spoiler cut )

You know, I had seen the "allisonscag4cassie" trending topic on twitter the other day, but had no idea what it meant. So then when I was trying to look up why Allison Scagliotti would be writing an intro to an upcoming "Hack/Slash" according to her twitter I learned apparently there's a push by internet nerds to have her play Cassie Hack in the ( Read more... )

TV Commentary:

Leverage- Hey, its Anna from the Vampire Diaries! Not that I didn't know she was gonna be in this since she'd been tweeting about it for weeks. But this was a refreshing ep. ( spoiler cut )

TV commentary:

Leverage- Ah, given Christian Kane is a singer with his own band, I figured they would eventually have him sing on this show much like they did on Angel (hey, I have LA Song on my ipod). Ah, and Alona Tal got to demonstrate those singing chops she's known for back in Israel. But what's with Eliot's love interests being former ( Read more... )
