He really, really is. and yes, I agree, Skandar is quite delicious himself.I'm amazed that between those two I was able to follow the "plot" (you know, the other plot, not the not-so-subtle telling of the love story between Edmund the Just and Caspian X, star/universe- crossed lovers ( ... )

(I actually loved Dollhouse, loved the hell out of it, it was only Echo who bugged me - casting a so-so actress in the most demanding role, hmm)

It is an amazing experience, overall, despite the throwing up. :D I can't even look at maps in a car, so trust me when I say the gritty details get forgotten and only the awesome of the sea remains. :D

Well, it got massive coverage here, don't know about Britain and the rest of the world. Essentially, a tall ship with thirty young teens on board lost both her masts off the coast of England and had to be towed back. No one was hurt or injured, but the kids were supposed to sail across the Atlantic, so it was pretty bad for them. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-11663942

(I loved it to, even if it actually took me a two or three episodes to get into. The whole brothel thing was hard to swallow -no pun intended- at first, but it was such an amazing show. But yes, her acting was not that great. Not bad enough to actually ruin the show for me, but it certainly lacked nuances, and I have the feeling she did ok because she was meant to look vacant most of the time, in the beginning at least.Mmh, that sounds bitchy, doesn't it?)

God, really? That's love, because I'm not sure I could have overlooked the throwing up part. Then again, I tend to be a huge wuss when I'm sick. :/

Honestly, I think it is quite possible it got coverage here too (I'm French), but I don't have a TV, and no matter how many times I tell myself I should check up online newspapers, the resolve never stick for long.
But poor kids, they must have been devastated.

(Her performance was made worse, like Jared Padalecki's in SPN, by the inclusion of amazing actors, like Victor's (who was beyond amazing!) and Adelle's and Topher's. Eliza is okay, especially as she was supposed to be vacant most of the time, but next to Enver(?) she looked like a newbie. The show only really picked up towards the end of the season, anyway.)

I'm not exactly hero material in that department either. XD But yeah, time erases the details, only the good remains.

I get that, I don't watch TV a whole lot either. Just crime shows, now and then. :)

God. Jared Padalecki. Don't get me started about him, because really, as much as I appreciate his bitchfaces as the next spn fan (though I've not been much of a fan since s6 started), his performance is just weak compared to Jensen ackles. I was okay with it too (because Jensen is as talented as he is pretty), until he portrayed Lucifer, and then... no.

and yes Dollhouse went to quite good to awesome when it began to expand on the chilly implications of the technology, and when everything goes to hell. I love apocalyptic stories :D.

I tend to watch a lot of shows (DW -always and ever-, Community, Parks and Rec, Fringe, 30 rock), just on my computer.
This makes me think I'm way behing on Criminal Minds. Oh, well.

I know, right? He is good, but Jensen is amazing, so Jared ends up looking average. And Samifer... Heh. It doesn't help that spn!Lucifer is this whiny baby throwing a tantrum, while I am a huge fan of Gaiman's Lucifer, who is a magnificent bastard cranked up to eleven.

Oh, absolutely! The Epitaph episodes were brilliant. :) Chilling, but brilliant.

Community! I watch most shows on the computer too, but CSI: Miami just needs a big screen (though I don't follow it. just catch it if it's on).

As a side note, did you get the comment with the links (a supergay official song for VoDT and a deleted scene)? It got marked as spam for some reason. o.O

I'm not going to lie: I actually loved whiny Lucifer (only when played by Mark Pellegrino though ( ... )
