lowriseflare informed me of a new Aaron Sorkin pilot for HBO called More As the Story Develops. How hadn't I heard of this!? It's going to be brilliant, for sure, probably a little more Studio 60 than anything.

White Collar is back on Tuesday! Check out that first scene at the website. So charged! Guh! All I want them to do it make out all over one another's ( Read more... )

tv: the good wife, fic: elliot&olivia, tv: more as the story develops, tv: white collar

New Sorkin pilot? YOU JUST MADE MY DAY. Although actually I was weirdly disappointed in Studio 60, so I dunno.

I love The Good Wife. How far have you gotten? I recently decided that I ship Alicia/Eli, even though I know it's a total crack ship.

RIGHT!?!?! (There's a link down below with the leaked script, if you're interested!) Studio 60 was... bad. I mean, I don't like Amanda Peet and I thought Sarah what's-her-face was terrible. It's like they tried to used Sports Night dialogue but make it dramatic and it did NOT work. Which was a shame, because I wanted to like it.

I'm on episode 7 at the moment! Didn't have time to watch any this weekend, but I hope to be done with this season by the end of the week!

That was amazing fic. I can totaly see Olivia's voice in it. Of course I think SUV without Stabler and Benson will be about as good as CI without Goren and Eames.

“You fucking debutante, shut up and eat your toast.”

THIS. IS. AWESOME.

Oh God, how it's so sad and she's so embarrassed and she shoved all this stuff in her life to the side and he moves to POUGHKEEPSIE of all the fucking places, and neither of them are innocent and it's all just so fantastically dull.

YOU ARE THE BEST.

YES. SOMEONE DID. AND THAT SOMEONE IS AN AWFUL HUMAN BEING AND SHOULD BE ASHAMED! (I am LOVING it so much, by the way!)

I don't know about all of this. I really don't. The more I think about it, the more I think that they're going to just gloss over him being gone and not have it take a toll on Olivia. Because they swept it all under the rug after "Fault."

But yeah, I can't stop thinking about it.

AND NUH-UH! YOU'RE THE BEST! :::scampers off to watch more of TGW:::

How far along are you? Who do you love/hate/ship? LET'S DISCUSS, I am thrilled you are watching, ALSO I watched the last three episodes of Parks and Rec last night and now I AM READY for "Ben and Leslie do it" fic, I am going to get right on that this week.

Also, I tried the dress on and it is so pretty but sadly it fits really weird, which is a problem I have with J.Crew stuff. It's made for girls much taller and WASPier than me.

LASTLY, are you watching the new CI eps at all? Because usually I'm pretty grossed out by Goren/Eames but I think I might be into it now as long as I don't think about it too hard.

The thing about your writing style... it feels punctuated in the right places, like I'm reading Olivia's thoughts instead of reading something about her. I like the fact that there's never a big maudlin scene with too much dialogue, that it's all these little moments, and they're all so fittingly heartbreaking that you don't need the big fight or the big declarations. Twelve years, jesus. I can't even believe it yet. The thought of that first scene back where we see Olivia without him just really, really pisses me off. Because you can see the intent (as much as they've fucked it up along the way) to do something with those characters and now Chris Meloni isn't even coming back for a goodbye? For fuck's sake.

Anyway. I enjoyed reading this, as always.

I hate writing these two and I love writing these two for this exact reason. This is how I write them. Because it's maddening, and because they're just so fucking COMPLICATED! UGH. FUCKIN... THESE TWO!

I know, how is THAT scene going to play out? WHAT IF THEY GLOSS OVER IT!?!?!

I can't believe that after twelve years with Mariska, Chris is just walking away. UGH. Makes me want to write RPF so effing baaaaaad.

Also, I miss you, I feel like our paths haven't crossed in awhile AND THAT MAKES ME SUPER SAD!

It's such a shame that they've created this intricate relationship with all these nuances and never any real, tangible "moments" (aside from that hug, maybe, or kidney swapping) and now there's not going to be any closure. I mean, I don't think there will be, because they never come through when we want them to...

I bet you they will! They'll fucking gloss right over it and have Munch walk by and be like "did you know that the state of New York has twelve thousand video cameras in it without our consent?" or some bullshit and then the screen will fade to black.

Ohh the RPF. After the Emmy's, how can you not?!

I miss you too! How are you these days?
