I CONCUR HEARTILY WITH YOUR OFFICE SENTIMENTS. I have been surprised at how okay (even gleefulish!) I've been with Jim/Pam this year, after ... certain past instances of slight bitterness, but this last episode with the house and Pam loving it made my soul feel kind of gross. I hope they carry on that plot thread and make it something besides worryingly fluffy. Because. Yeah.
Also, the notion of Oscar being the new Jim Halpert is just about the best thing ever. The old Jim Halpert can go fight a clown painting, or something.
I know, like, the engagement scene was sweet, and they've been a pretty good couple, but the house thing is just -- ew, Jim, ew ew. THEY BETTER TAKE THIS SOMEWHERE, I'm getting really nervous about it.
Hahahahahaha, fight a clown painting, for reals. Go play a mean prank on Dwight, Jim, Oscar will be filling the vacancy in put-upon looks.
I just want to thank you for turning me on to Life. (Does that sentence sound funny, or what?) Agreed re: hotness of Damian Lewis. And why, oh, why isn't there like a metric fic-ton of Ted/Charlie slash out there already?
Oh man, it's awesome you're into Life! Isn't it a great show? Isn't he blisteringly attractive?
God, the lack of Ted/Charlie is really one of the injustices of the universe. SRSLY, GUYS, THEY WERE IN PRISON TOGETHER AND NOW THEY'RE ROOMMATES. I really want, like, dirty desperate prison sex, I don't even know.
Moving on from that: Haha, when the cop at the beginning, like, listed Charlie's possible 'ships. Bring your ex-wife! Or your "roommate" you met in prison! Or your hot partner!
HAAAAAAAAAAA! That is totally along the lines of what I was thinking. And you totally called the Mulder/Scullyness of Charlie and Dani getting stuck in the one hotel room. It's "Arcadia!" He's going to demand that Dani make him a sammich next, and she's going to pistol-whip him.
Which -- haha, Dani has a lot of balls. Her boyfriend grosses out her partner, and then she makes her PARTNER go find somewhere else to sleep?
(Not) God, I know, right? I commented on this to my roommate by exclaiming, "Daniella Reese!"
I don't know. I still love this show like a crazy person, but it's a little sad to me that it's less... I don't know. It's less, like, aftermath-y than the first season was, in that way that really pinged me and made me crazily overidentify.
You know, that's awesome and on-point. Thank you for
( ... )
Hahaha, like me, that rich conspirator cop cannot even choose his favorite Charlie Crews ship! There's so many options! And oh God, I would kill for an Arcadia episode of Life. CAN THEY GO UNDERCOVER AS A MARRIED COUPLE PLEASE?
(... and now I want to write that fic, like, desperately.)
Hahaha, Daniella Reese. Seriously, don't punish Charlie for you putting him in a horrible position where he had to hear about your panties from your MUTUAL BOSS. Are you paying for his therapy bills?
Oh man, it makes me feel good that the non-aftermath part bothers you too -- I mean, I can see why they can't continue that indefinitely, but I just liked it a lot when it all felt so present! And you're totally right, the prison experiment was TOTALLY an awesome throwback -- when he told that kid the first three years would be the hardest, I almost lost it. MORE STUFF LIKE THAT, SHOW.
Though, on the other hand, I believe those purple panties were supposed to be the purple panties that Charlie bought Dani last ep. So perhaps his emotional trauma was Justified.
As much as the "Zen thing" is entertaining, I miss the gravitas of the thinks-like-a-con, damaged-like-a-con bits.
Oh, and because you will appreciate this, and my roommate does not: is it just me, or is Damian totally flipping commando lately? I could NOT stop staring at his loose and breezy sea monster last night.
I keep trying to retcon Andy's p-houndiness by looking for all the instances of his maybe-bi-ness. Like, what straight guy dresses as Rum Tum Tugger? Seriously!
!!!!!! If those purple panties were the ones Charlie bought for her, I would have an aneurysm. Do you really think she would've taken them from Charlie??
HAHA COMMANDO. I-I do not know. Honestly, his junk has always been pretty visible, in my vast examination of his photographic and videographic corpus. But it would not surprise me if that's because he's always going commando, because he's kind of skeezy dude. Also this comment made me lol.
The great thing about Andy/Oscar is that it's a ship where one dude is gay and one dude likes show tunes. It's barely like slash at all, it might as well be a Queer as Folk ship, hahaha.
ME TOO. He cleans Charlie up when he's been out all night fighting crime, he makes sure he's eating right. He canonically worries about being Alfred. It's all there!
I know! I always feel like Ted is not getting adequate storylines, but it is a dicey situation. What I really liked was when Ted got CALLED DOWN to help out with their investigation, and then he and Charlie almost killed that dude together. MORE OF THAT PLIS SHOW.
