As a distraction from my current professional anxieties (waaaaaaaaaaaiting, graaaaaaaaaaaading), let's talk about basketball. Specifically, WOOT, DUKE LOST!!! Always happy times, and I take particular delight when Duke loses before we do (even if it's technically in the same round, because let's face it, my Kentucky boys are going to need the game

I am so happy about this I could cry.
Good luck with the UK game tonight! I have to admit that I have not been paying all that much attention to basketball this season. Mostly because my team is woefully horrible having a building year.
I am intrigued by the idea of a TSCC rewatch. I may have to join in.

Do! We're coming up on my favorite episode of the series, "The Demon Hand"!!! Recap by yours truly to be posted early next week. :D

And my bracket is only not completely dead through sheer willpower. *double sighs*

There may be pigs flying somewhere because I, um, did not get around to filling out my bracket in time this year, so I do not have one! Meep!!! (So busy!!! But I'm still rather shocked: I haven't been bracket-less since, oh, middle school or so.) Though I'm vicariously piggybacking on gabolange's, because she did the pro-Kentucky thing on my behalf, so I should probably check in to see how we're doing. But I also think there are a lot of dead brackets right about now!

But yes, JAMES ELLISON. You're so right that the show gets better the more you watch it - I think it's because one of it's strengths is a very solid, intricate structure and such a huge amount of forethought that clearly went into it and doesn't go into many shows. So you don't notice it first time around, but it means it bears up to rewatch sooo well because there's more to notice, and if nothing new to notice, the competent elegance of the structure is just such a joy to watch unfold when you know where it's headed and realise how much was planted and how early.
BUT BACK TO JAMES ELLISON. He really is just the kind of hot, stoic, earnest, undramatic woobie that I can never understand why fandom isn't all over. You're lucky I'm already married or we might be on the opposite sides of another arcane ( ... )

Except that fandom does tend to prefer its male woobies to be dramatic, doesn't it. Preferably stoic and dramatic at the same time, what with the whole stereotypical hero thing, and I've never quite understood that--all the brooding and the great tragic past and manpain and stuff.
