Hee. I was headed up the stairs when I heard, "Mommy! Dr. Horrible is on Sesame Street!" And there was Neil Patrick Harris, playing as the Fairy Shoe Person. Needless to say, I had to watch. And I have to say, he had some nice comic moments with the guy who plays Chris, although I was a little disappointed that he never pronounced Telly's shoes "Legend... wait for it... dary." (Probably some copywrite thing.) But this segment goes up there with Will Arquette playing Max the Magician on Sesame Street (complete with powder blue costume, cape, and Final Countdown introduction music).
While I have a strong nostalgia for the classics, especially Gordon, I have to say I really like the new guy on Sesame Street- Chris Knowings/Robinson. He's funny and amiable, and I have to admit I totally ship him with the other new character Leela. (What? Sesame Street has ships. Maria married Louis when the actress got pregnant in real life.) But Chris Knowings has some really good expressions, and his laid-back persona played very well off of the uptight, type A Fairy Shoe Person.
I'm metaing about Sesame Street. Signs I really don't want to hit this last chapter of ALTLUT.
Also, insta-rec!
George, by
puszysty is adorable and heartbreaking at the same time.
bantha_fodder wrote a fic a few years back where Gaeta had a stuffed elephant named George. I think it was probably supposed to be a joke, but George has been showing up a little recently- in my remix fic where Starbuck kidnaps George to get Gaeta to help her play a prank on Lee, in a fic someone else wrote where Skulls embarrasses Felix with it (I'm really sorry that I can't remember, although I'm almost positive it was
prophetkristy?), and now in this little piece where George is with Felix during some of his big moments in his life. If you still have a teddy bear somewhere in your possessions, you'll love this one.
Okay. I've got a half hour before Sesame Street is over. Come on, Dee. Let's do this.
