I am now the proud owner of the complete Stargate series. The box is awesome with a stargate sticking out on the front, but the organisation of the DVDs is absolutely dire. Basically it seems like they're the DVDs from the individual sets shoved into this one. Episodes like 1969 from series 1 are missing from the series 1 discs and for some reason added as the second last episode in series 2. Two series 1 episodes are also given as special features on a series 2 disc. I'm so confused. But also happy as I now have 10 years of the best show I've ever seen right at my finger tips. YAY.
Also, maybe I'm a knob, but I thought last week's Primeval was the finale. Since there were 6 episodes in series 1, I thought there'd only be 6 in series 2. I know there was a trailer, but I thought it was a peak for episode 1 of series 3. That was probably a stupid idea. But I'm glad there's another episode tonight, because given I thought episode 6 was the finale I was a bit disappointed there were no big jaw dropping moments - to me at least.
Also, does anyone else literally hiss and make an 'eww' face when Helen is on screen? I do it every single time. I absolutely HATE her. I guess that means the actress is doing an awesome job, but I want to scratch her fucking eyes out! I hope Stephen comes back from the dark side, Cutter and Jenny talk about the Claudia thing, and Connor and Abby kiss. Also I'd like the Claudia/Jenny change explained. I think Helen did it because she was jealous of Claudia and Cutter. Bitch. See? I just hate her!! Lol.
Also Ashes to Ashes... meh. I don't know what to do. On the one hand, I want to buy series 1 of Life on Mars and watch that whole series again before watching A to A. Also, I don't know if I can sustain my disbelief for ANOTHER series. I watched LoM because I wanted to know what was happening to Sam, and I was slightly disappointed by the lack of explanation. In the special features it seems the creators didn't have a solid explanation and they themselves had different ideas about what they were going to do. That annoyed me. Since the woman in A to A is supposed to have read Sam's detailed report, the explanation is probably just going to be that she put herself with Gene and co in her mind. I really don't like the it's-all-in-their-heads explanation. That betrays the awesomeness and the brilliance of Gene and the gang, and the plots each week. In any case, I'm downloading what's been shown of A to A, just to see if I can bear it without Sam.
Also, Carry on Sergeant, the first ever Carry on film is on right now, and it's got William Hartnell, the first Doctor in it. Hee. I love the Carry on films.
