From the AS1 episode "Eternity":

Rebecca: Bela Lugosi, Gary Oldman, they’re vampires.
Angel: Frank Langella was the only performance I believed.

I give him the benefit of the doubt that he didn't see the Louis Jourdan version.  Meanwhile, I had completely forgotten that Wes first espoused the "99.999 ad finitum percent" theory about perfect happiness ( Read more... )

Aw, that was Amy Acker in the HIMYM Season One finale.  And, even when she's not Fred, she's still the most adorable human being on the planet*.

Also, I heart Alexis Denisof into the tiniest little pieces possible, even when he's being a jackass.

* Well, tied with Alyson Hannigan and Jason Marsden...

I went to bed very, _very_ late last night/early this morning after spending most of yesterday working on rearranging my room* and a long-overdue letter to Chaotica, and I wound up having my first Who dream in quite some time, which was very exciting.

Apparently the Daleks aren't the only ones around here having revelations...

The GFP and I watched "She" - very possibly my least favourite episode of Angel, the entire middle of Season Two included - this evening, and I discovered some added funness that I didn't see before on account of I turned it off before the credits.

Everyone should watch the clip I found on YouTube, because there's not much so amusing as Alexis ( Read more... )

After seeing A403 and B703:

I still like what has come of the Spike plotline (and I still have a lot of explaining to at least try to do, don't I,bizarreoptimism?  Hopefully soon).

I am still infuriated with and creeped out by Wesley.  I want them to move that plotline forward so I can start to like him again (like I said, though, I doubt I'll be able to completely ( Read more... )
