I was watching the Law & Order series finale.  It was a pretty intense episode, about a blog that posts threats of shooting up a school.  I thought the twist was pretty neat-o for Law & Order, and I was certainly tense at the end.  The NYTimes has a good write-up of it, and I agree that the Department of Ed. and teachers' unions probably won't be ( Read more... )

Pretentious livejournal entries remind me of the ramblings of psychotic schizophrenic people on Law & Order: SVU.

No, really.  That's what they sound like.  Like the one who talked only in terms of chemical reactions and thought there were terrorists invading her mind.  They also remind me of the guy in the grocery store the other day who was in ( Read more... )

"Stamford Raffles was at the romantic edge of this Enlightenment quest, seeking in the rustic Javanese or highland Sumatran the noble vestige of once-great civilisations.

Man, I love writing about training.  And it's so obvious why.  I almost started subscribing to Toonami Jetstream today, before I realized I'd be stuck watching a lot of nouveau shows and I would have no choice ( Read more... )

There's a LO:CI scene that every AMV maker, especially if they're a shipper, uses - from season six, Goren and Eames are driving down a side-street - Eames is driving, of course.  You see them from behind - you're basically watching the road.  Neither of them are talking, but I just noticed that if you look in the rear view mirror, you can see that ( Read more... )

I watched the two newest episodes for Law & Order: SVU and Law & Order: Criminal Intent tonight.  I was amazed by how much better the Criminal Intent episode was.

SVU has become histrionic.  Really - see the definition for Histrionic Personality Disorder.  Not only did it rehash a previous SVU episode (which was, in its day, and in comparison, ( Read more... )

Just wanted to report on the history of everybody's favorite "I'll-be-quirky" detective... no, not Adrian Monk, Robert "Bobby" Goren.  Apparently, he "served in the Criminal Investigation Division of the U.S. Army. He was stationed in Germany and South Korea ( Read more... )

You know that your fandoms have a theme when you've favorited four videos to the two same songs: "It's Been Awhile" - Staind (A great angsty but decidedly un-emo song, by the way) and Linkin Park's "In The End".

It doesn’t get much better than listening to Ludacris’ “Roll Out” while watching Law & Order.  You get precious moments like, “Stay the fuck out of my business… my business, my business, stay the fuck out of my business!” while the grizzly trial judge is walking impatiently away from Jack and Abbie, who are trying to get him to approve some motion ( Read more... )
