Seriously the best quote EVER on any show:
"Be brave, okay...WWBD. What would Buffy do?"
"What would Buffy do. I know, Ed, but she's stronger than me."
And that, my friends, is exactly when I was like I heart this show! A Buffy reference will make me anyone's bitch.
Yeah, so I pretty much loved it. Like any show, it has its ups and downs but I still really enjoyed it. I always liked The X-Files filler episodes and this show reminds me of those.
I truly expected to be so-so with it and to absolutely loathe Jared because of how much I disliked Dean but by "Phantom Traveler", I was seeing him as Sam, which was a relief. And Jensen goes without saying, I think. I really liked when they could joke around and not be so doom and gloom...those moments were few but I think the Js bounce off each other really well (and that's NOT meant to be dirty!). JDM is so not Denny which is fantastic. He's so BIG and BURLY and GRRR. I just, yeah, I really like him.
I thought the scenes with all the Winchester men in them worked the best. Not that JP isn't good but JA and JDM definitely shine for me. And with JA, it's refreshing because he isn't just pretty, you know? Which, honestly, I thought would be the case because I had never really seen him anything except for a couple of Dawson's Creek episodes that I could barely sit through in the 6th? season and I was only watching it because Joey and Pacey were shaving goatees and shit. Anyhoo, I thought when the 3 of them are together and there's all this insane tension and insane love and you can see it with all of them and it works.
The music is so kick ass that I just rock out. And the car. Oh, the car. Which leads me to...
"Devil's Trap" in which so much stuff happened that I'm soooo glad the premiere is this week and I didn't have to wait 3 months for answers! When the Impala got smashed by the truck, it hurt! It felt like when Serenity got her little legs cut off when she crashed in BDM. I loved the scene in which Possessed!John tells Dean that John favors Sam because ouch and I think it is definitely true. Me sad for Dean.
Some things are a little too reminiscent of things I've seen before but, really, what isn't now-a-days?
So, yay, new show!
Heroes tonight. I won't be cutting that without watching it. Gilmore tomorrow...which I am insantely excited about and I think it is ONLY because ASP/DP are gone. I'm really curious to see what the new guy can do and if he can perform a miracle. I haven't watched Desperate Housewives yet and I'm not even sure I'm going to.
So, we went wedding dress shopping on Saturday. There is nothing worse than needing to constantly blow your nose while your looking at dresses. I was the anti-bacterial queen on Saturday. It was awful. We went to David's Bridal and decided fairly quickly that it sucked hardcore. So we went down the street to a private bridal boutique and I immediately found my dress...or I guess the bridesmaids dresses (I was the only one there so...I got to pick. Thank GOD). She tried on about 5 dresses and the last one was it. We both just started crying and squeeing and so we knew that was her dress and then they were like try on the dress you picked out and I look at the size and am like oh-kay! This should FUN. And I was pleasantly surprised that it fit...except for the boobs from hell. They were totally mocking me. (My friend is getting married, I am the maid of honor. Sorry for any confusion!)
D. got a new job that he will start next Monday. The man told him that they received 170 resumes and they picked him and one other man to interview and they gave D. the job. I am extremely proud of him. And he tries to act like it's not a big deal but I know he's super excited and happy.
I have work to do and fic to beta!
