I will miss you, stupid show that I scoffed at that first summer it was on, and then was sick that one Labor Day where FX was rerunning the first six episodes and I got totally hooked in because omg your version of stupid rich people hitting each other (or getting hit by young hoodlums in wife-beaters [or young hoodlums who clean up nicely in suits ( Read more... )

I've been meaning to say this out loud for about a month. Marc Warren is officially Voretex HQ UK. I shake my finger very mildly at cunien for not pointing this out when she had advance knowledge, but here it is.

Marc Warren, aka Danny Blue, aka Blithe, aka Rosslijah's brother-in-law guest starred on Doctor Who in a very sweet (singing! dancing!) role ( Read more... )

Spent the afternoon (after a fairly pointless morning of wandering through a town where every single thing was closed) watching Joyeux Noël, starring--briefly and in true BoB secondary-character-played-by-somewhat-obscure-actor fashion--Robin Laing. He is the first person onscreen, rushing adorkably into church to find his brother and announce to ( Read more... )

This no-LJ stuff sucks when I actually have to be at my desk all day long. Havoc is being wreaked without me, I can feel it! I hear rumors of brilliant fannish rambles and people who may need bitch-slapping, and yet I can see none of it! Thank goodness for liptorm, who planted all sorts of cracky ideas in my head and encouraged the care and keeping of ( Read more... )

The OC totally went Vortexian with its pop culture references last night. I laughed really hard at the following exchange:

Summer: Do you remember that movie the boys made us watch? With the gay guys on the mountain?

Marissa: Lord of the RingsSummer: Yeah. (And then she rambles on about how Seth is like Gollum ( Read more... )

Last night I slunk over to the movie theatre by work to see The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. I haven't been having much luck with scheduling movies with friends lately, so I just went on my own, like I do. Anyway, I loved it! There were little nitpicky things that ... well, not that I didn't like, but that didn't agree with my own internal ( Read more... )

Fox, right now. Ross McCall guest starring on David Boreanaz's god-awful Bones, playing part of a fun BSM couple. He made sleazy bondage jokes!

*dies of teh Vortex*

ETA: OMG this is such a bad show

This afternoon I watched a fairly bad movie called Go for Broke starring My Personal Back-Stage Pass to the Vortex, Michael Goorjian. It's the gripping story of a mildly stupid guy with a lisp and his slightly smarter best friend trying to get back the $10 million winning lottery ticket stolen by a crazed woman in her botched robbery of the coffe ( Read more... )

Well, okay, not in person, but on a really big screen. I went downtown to see Green Street Hooligans tonight. As a prelude, they really should have stuck with either Green Street or The Yank for a title. Oh well ( Read more... )

Sneaking in reruns of The O.C. pays off!! Just saw a preview of David Boreanaz's new series, Bones. Forensic anthropologist and forensic scientist (some woman named Emily-Something-With-A-D) and FBI agent (Boreanaz) team up to solve crime. Sounds like my dearly beloved "Bone Detective" books with a younger, sexier cast (and with the antrhopologist ( Read more... )
