And just when you're least expecting it...
I was going to write a bitchy post earlier, but I then got a totally unexpected reply to the email I sent to Farin a few weeks ago and I forgot why I was angry in the first place. <3
And now for something completely different: I don't watch TV that much, the only shows I try not to miss are "Le Iene" and NCIS (and Criminal Minds, but I'll have to wait till next autumn to watch it again). A few weeks ago a new show started after NCIS: Hawaii Five-O. And, well, I was instantly hooked. There are a lot of similar series around, but this one really caught my eye. I mean, apart from the gratuitous eye candy, what I like about it is the constant bickering between the two main characters, which can be easily read as bromance. For instance, I found this video on the CBS YouTube channel:
Really? The authors are totally not doing it on purpose, right? Adding all these little moments just to please the fangirls, it's called marketing, baby. Like the following little bit:
I mean, come onnn. Too bad they've only showed 8 episodes so far and will broadcast the rest in September. I'll just have to watch it online, I guess (I've already found a couple of mistranslations, so I'd better watch the original version anyway).
I also gingerly looked for fanfiction and was surprised to find a rec community with links to pretty good fics. I even found a fic set in New Jersey that mentioned a lot of familiar names and places I'd been to, I caught myself thinking "OMG I've been there!" more than once. XD
Hopefully this new fandom will provide some distraction until the new Sherlock episodes... >_>
