Ok, so I never really realized that my whole family is just a bunch of saps until Sunday. We all went to this lovely dinner theater for a darling Christmas musical. Usually this theater has a Christmas revue which is spine-tinglingly good, but this year, for the first time in a long time, the program is a simple musical instead. It was quite ( Read more... )

So ever since reading whizzy's Fade to Black I've had this niggling thing in the back of my mind. This feeling. Of Cary Grant having lived in a place called Boy's Town (actually Bachelor Hall) with someone like Gary Cooper (actually Randolph Scott). And even back when I first heard about that I thought it was really quite gay. Terribly gay even. And this ( Read more... )

Okay, so I am presently watching Vampire Diaries...attrocious btw, but am I the only one feeling the incestuous Damon/'Stefan vibe?  This show is going to be bad, but I can see a strong fangirl following.  And some really, really really hot fic.  Oh, and if they call the ring the gem of Amara...I'll laugh my ass off.

Kay, so...I had a day mostly free and spent a good portion of it watching some long-ago season of Top Chef.  And the sick thing (and I mean sick) is that I now want to write Top Chef RPS.  WTF?  I mean seriously.  I'm starting to think I'm scarred for life.  Sometimes I even want to write about guys at work and their hopeless romances.  Am I ( Read more... )

Okay so some of my LJ friends have been mentioning Leverage as a really good show for a while now.  And I've been ignoring them.  Because I was assuming they were just pleased to see Christian Kane any way they could.  Even if the show was shit.  What a mistake!!!  Seriously, Leverage rocks.  And is it just me, or is there some serious potential ( Read more... )

Ok, I know that Dark Shadows is very possibly the corniest television show known to mankind, but, but, it's so campy...soo good in its totally unbelievable special-effects and completely unremarkable acting skills.  And now Johnny Depp is going to be in a movie version?  Is there anyone in the world as excited as I am right now?  I think the only ( Read more... )

There are very few times in which I feel a media item is entirely without worth, but let me say here that if Persuasion of 2007 is worth anything, it is merely useful as an illustration of how ill cast a set of actors can be.  Although I do not think the 1995 version the best of works (nay there is some writing that is nigh on to abominable) I do ( Read more... )

Ok, so I posted some fic at SOG last year and as I'm one of those really nervous really embarrassed type people I didn't check the comments until now, and can I just say I am in awe.  Everyone is soooo nice.  I didn't finish the first story for the obvious reason that it was my first read story and as such pure crap.  The second story's ending got ( Read more... )

Yes, I know it would never work, but after finding lim's vids no longer appear to even be on youtube anymore (can we say yet another lawsuit?) I'm finding myself decidedly in favor of going for it.  Obviously this is some crazy thing where either the musicians or producers of sga are suing the pants off of everyone in general.  I really ought to ( Read more... )
