a few more thoughts on 5x1

Apr 10, 2010 22:43

So, in the absence of any thoughts on tonight's Doctor Who episode (I'm waiting until I've seen it a second time, and without a toddler distracting me, to gather my thoughts), I am offering two things about "The Eleventh Hour" that came to mind after posting my review ( Read more... )

omg she has so much hair! She looks almost properly a kid (instead of a baby)!

That is a good category, for those unsettling people that you can't totally love, or totally write off.

Yeah, I have to put her hair up in pigtails every day or it falls in her face and gets a ton of food in it. It's hard to think of her as not even 2, she's all long legs and almost-complete sentences and wanting to use the potty. :/

The DTC developed right after they cast Thewlis in HP; I kept seeing pictures in which he was superhot right next to pictures where he looked like a park-bench creepster. It was surreal.

(Also, having revisited some of the pictures the BBC released after announcing Smith, I realise that he got a much better haircut. That helps a lot.)

(For other examples of this phenomenon, see[...]Uma Thurman.)

Sorry, man. When looking at Uma T, half the time I'm thinking "my God, she's gorgeous", and half the time "er, yikes". She's very striking (especially compared to the cookie-cutter "hotties" of Hollywood) and I give her mad props for that, but sometimes it just doesn't work for me.

is flat-out channeling Sarah Chalke in "Scrubs"

omg THAT is who she keeps reminding me of! It's been bugging me since I first watched the episode, but I couldn't figure out who I was thinking of, other than someone else on some other tv show. But YES that is so, so right.

The David Thewlis Conundrum - I'll be using this phrase in the future!

awww adorable kid! But how does one get in/out of that contraption she's in???

I think the only reason I made the connection is the many, many hours I spent with my S1&2 Scrubs DVDs!

As for her contraption, it's a combination desk/rocking horse/high chair, and she's learned to climb out over the back pretty easily.
