- I love Zachary Quinto. He is so smart and articulated and the fact he is going to be along with Lisa Eldestein (Another fucking amazing person) on a benefit concert to support gay marriage makes me love him even more. It aggravates me when I read homophobic comments. I want to punch all the small minded douchebags and say STFU to the 'gay

- First... about Catcher in the Reye I do get what you mean. I don't think Holden is a bad character, but he is just so opposite of what I relate and this made me not engage much with the main character. In fact, at times I liked more the people that surrounded him (Such as his sister). I don't understand this teenager angst because I wasn't a 'rebel' or overly angst and though I couldn't relate at all with this phase (Being sometimes too mature and sometimes too immature to my age) I am not sure I can understand the drama. I did get though the whole 'What I am going to do with my life?' part of the book, but that was basically brought by other characters. In spite I don't necessarily need to relate to a character in order to like it (I share no murder bound with Sawyer and Kate) I have to at least to rationalize and understand (Even if not entirely) the character's actions. So I don't know, maybe I missed the bigger picture. In the end I don't think it's a bad book... in fact it's pretty good, but Holden per se is not an 'iconic' character for me personally. But as I said the book has one of my favorite passages ever. The professor who pat Holden's head while he was sleeping (Maybe it's my dirty mind, but he seemed a pedophile) was talking about the need of education to shape people's brilliance and my heart kinda swell at that point. Passages like that is what drives me to a book and maybe a better insight on the world outside 'depression' and 'phonies' or a slight familiarity would make me like Holden more.
- About Better off Ted. I just saw some episodes and I liked as well, but as you said I can't stand the what'shername love interest. She is whinny and childish. You don't like your job? Quit it! Don't stay 24 hours a day talking about how sucky it is and stealing things to cope. And her reaction with Ted's kiss and his friendship with her ex (I just watched 'till that point) it was so petty and ridiculous. I am not sure why the writers have to write her that way, but (I know I will sound like a bitch) I guess it's mainly the actress suckiness. Her role on Joey was obnoxious and chemistry-less as well. Ironicaly, I follow the guy who plays Ted since The Inside because I find him sexy and charming (I dunno, it's crazy but I have a crush on him) and 'till this point I shipped him with every single female lead. Even when he was a merely recurring character and I knew the romance would lead nowhere. He is so full of chemistry. For example, I loved loved loved LOVED his chemistry with Kate Walsh and I wished they could interact somehow. I also loved his interaction with Rachel Nichols. I was sad when his character left in the first case and the show was cancelled with the second case. About Portia, I love her character (How cute it was her interaction with his kid) and I like her with Ted. But Ted and what'shername relationship is so down our throats that no way they won't be the main ship. So, I am not shipping. But I did wish she go away.

- I watched Heroes, but I was never a big fan, albeit Zachary Quinto was basically just an actor that never draw my attention physically and personality wise (Though when he used glasses he was attractive... and when he is Spock which is weird, but I discovered his awesomeness via StarTrek so it doesn't count). Note that even actors I like usually do not capture me enough to make me read or watch interviews (Not even Lost's.... usually I just read shipper quotes), but I bumped into his interviews on Star Trek promotion tour and his mind just blows me away. The way he reasons the storyline, he words things... his vocabulary (Plus he is a shipper Spock and Uhura, heee). It's so coherent. So he become someone I admire, interview wise at least.
