Wherein I am a bad Wire fan and watch a lot of TV

May 16, 2008 21:03

So I just found out that Beadie from The Wire was Holly in last night's Office! I can't believe I didn't recognize her. I knew she looked familiar but couldn't place her. I almost would expect Michael to be like, "hey, aren't you from The Wire?" He does watch it! It makes sense though that they'd want to hire The Wire actors. Maybe there will be ( Read more... )

Love Beadie.

Thought she and Steve were great together, then remembered they were in Dan in Real Life together, so no wonder they got on awesome.

Michael/Holly, FTW.

They were! I don't remember her from that but it's extra awesome.

I really do love them. We'll see how next season goes. Michael/happy is where I am right now.

Flashpoint because it's got Enrico (Keith from Veronica Mars!) and Hugh Dillion (who I haven't seen yet but I know will be good) and sounds fun.

I can vouch that Hugh Dillon = very good. ;D

I know, I've seen the vids ;)

That reminds me, must go download Hard Core Logo.

Ahem. Yay, Hard Core Logo! :D

Wow. lol. You follow t.v. like I follow film. ;)

I'm intrigued by the idea of Crusoe. I actually love the book and wrote an essay on Defoe's work last year. It's definately a fascinating story. It's what I originally had hoped Lost would be, only with lots of people instead of just one.

Yes, exactly :)

I am very, very intrigued. It could totally suck or be really good (or anywhere in between). I'll have to read the book, I started it but never finished it. I actually did read an essay on it once though. That's exactly it, I've always been interested in stranded on an island scenarios so this fits my storytelling loves perfectly (also probably a hint I should watch Castaway...).

Cast Away was a mediocre movie. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to you. lol.

The book is full of sixteenth century notions of racial superiority amongst colonists, especially in the way Crusoe treats Friday. As much as I love that story, though, I'd be more interested in a t.v. show that was more along the lines of Lord of the Flies, where a group of people are stranded and start going at each others throats while trying to survive. It could be great for HBO.

Heh okay but I'll probably see it anyway for the storyline and because my friend has a vid to it.

Oh I know but hopefully the TV show won't be as bad. I'd definitely love to see a Lord of the Flies tv show! Love that book. I think it could be great anywhere.

I'm still mad about the 09 schedule change. Having to choose between watching House and Pushing Daisies? EVIL. EVIL AT ITS HIGHEST.
Also its straight after church, so I'll have to rush home and pray the service doesn't last too long D:
Why are you doing this Fox? WHY?

I KNOW! It's horrible. I love Pushing Daisies better as a show but House/Wilson is my favorite current running ship! Thankfully at least last year PD was shown a day early in Canada so I was able to get the episode a day earlier so I'm hoping that will save me.

Fox is evil. That is a fact.

Me, too! See you there! :)
