I REALLY LIKE THAT I CAN STILL GET INCANDESCENT WITH RAGE OVER LIFE ON MARS, AND SPECIFICALLY, SAM/GENE. \o/

(No, really, I actually do.)

Oh! Oh! talkingtothesky has recorded 'time was running wild' (the second part of the Changes series) as a podfic. You can listen here. Tell her how awesome she is <33333

People on fandomsecrets are saying Ashes to Ashes is a better show than Life on Mars.

... I don't get that AT ALL. Even if you like it more? It is, in no objective way, a better made show. The beginning was dire, both Ash and Matt admitted that the tone was off in S1, the way it was shot up until S3 was awful, the plot holes were many and gigantic ( Read more... )

A while back I recommended fern_tree's 25 Essential Gene Hunt Expressions.

In what may be the first time in forever I didn't have to automatically pinch hit and everyone got their first, second or third preference in the LoM ficathon. (Okay, there may have been one person that I didn't really give a choice to, but only one. Other years, up to three people have been given 4th and 5th choices and I had to auto pinch hit!)

talkingtothesky has recorded podfic of one of my Life on Mars fics --- plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose (Sam/Maya, Sam/Gene, PG rated.) You can find the download here. Make sure you tell her what an awesome job she did. I love her voice so much and her use of intonation is amazing. You can easily tell the difference between the Maya viewpoint and the ( Read more... )
