Atlantis, Pythagoras and Magical Naked Gateways

Sep 28, 2013 22:48

Aaaargh, Auntie Beeb, why must you come along and give my Saturday nights ridiculous trashy meaning again? Do you have any idea how many shows I'm trying to keep up with right now?
(Also the trailer for Death Comes to Pemberley beforehand amused me greatly, there was a time when I would quite happily have taken that book with me on a desert island.)


Hercules is like every guy down the pub who used to be part of the rugby team at uni and never moved on, constantly telling stories about how they'd have turned professional if it weren't for their knee. It's a good thing Pythagoras likes him and seems to earn enough money to keep them both in house and booze, with a little left over to take in attractive strays. Which reminds me, any magic watery portal that can strip a man and leave him stranded on a beach stark naked is clearly the kind of portal I should be having drinks with XD And it so helpfully provided clothes that fit afterwards ;P

Pythagoras is so cute, I want one. And a Jason to keep it company whilst random attractive women smoulder in his direction. Pythagoras seems like such a weedy little nerd but I suspect anyone who has to pay Hercules gambling debts off on a regular basis knows precisely how to kick someone in the knackers and run away. He certainly seems to have no problem hiding random pretty boys from the city guards. Jason straddling Pythagoras is going to be my enduring memory of this episode~

In terms of Atlantis guard dogs the two-headed dragon beats the hunting lions hands down simply for being a dragon.

Creepy abusive queen is kind of a cow. I hope she ends up cursed by the gods to be nice to Ariadne or (rather attractive in a papa bear kind of way) King Minos will have her banished.

As it's all a bit Greek I'm waiting to find out who's secretly related to the person they fancy.

Next week, Medusa. Yes, yes, I approve. My love for Jemima Rooper has only grown since the Famous Five, what, we all have childhood crushes ;P

drivel, atlantis, flailing, tv
