I don't even like the Harry Potter series, and I agree with this. Minerva McGonagall will always be my favorite Harry Potter character.

People fail to see McGonagall as a main character because she’s not a student nor does she actively participate in Harry’s life. But she basically keeps the school from falling apart when it’s overrun by ( Read more... )

1. More gymnastics in this episode=a good thing

2. Ayla Kell's ballet technique shines through. I approve. Even though it makes me cringe when the steps really don't go with the music

3. The eating disorder plot is being handled so well. I AM SO PLEASED. SKINS, THIS IS WHAT I WANTED TO SEE FROM CASSIE. Well, not this necessarily, but ( Read more... )

Guys, Camelot this week. Oh man.

( spoilers and a video )

Whoa, guys, whoa. I just realized this: Tamsin Egerton is playing Guinevere in that new show Camelot. Yeah, Tamsin Egerton, that would be the same person who played little!Morgaine in The Mists of Avalon back in the day.

So I'm currently watching the Disney Channel version of Avalon High. It's as bad as is to be expected, perhaps worse. And there's this random extra character who is maybe supposed to be Merlin? I haven't figured that out. But the thing it's done right? When hot boys stare creepily at you, they're actually evil and not Edward Cullen.

Somehow, Matt Smith's being on the Sarah Jane Adventures has added so much legitimacy to his version of the Doctor for me. I don't know why. But I spent all of Doctor Who's season trying to get used to him, and never really did. And now I'm feeling it. Maybe time was all I needed, or maybe I just needed to see him next to former companions ( Read more... )

Dear NCIS,

I hate this Tony/Ziva stuff. Mostly, I still watch the show because I miss the way it was. But then you go and pull parallels with kid!Ziva and Daddy David and things like that, and I LOVE IT. Do more of that, please.
