Studio 60, Etc.

[smittywing]

Okay, Studio 60 might win me back if they make the show entirely about the freshmen writers and their grumpy-but-brilliant mentor. And if Danny Tripp wears his glasses on his forehead FOREVER AND EVER.

So my apathy about the second half of season 3 of SGA seems to have dissipated and I have stuff to do. Bummer.

Oh? So what's your secret?

Re: PS

[krysalys]

*snicker* I have LOTS of secrets, hon. Depends on just how much TMI you can handle. ;)
Or how easily grossed out you get.
Hee.
Okay, I'll give you a little one - my husband doesn't know I have a vibrator shoved in between the mattress & box spring on my side of the bed. What's weird about that is that the vibrator's actually an old vibrating toothbrush that I removed the bristles from. What? I couldn't wait until my mail order came! ;)
So, hope that didn't gross you out?

Isn't the female freshman writer the original Pam, from the British version of The Office?

[smittywing]

Hm. According to IMDb, she was "Dawn" from the British The Office. Is that the equivalent role or an entirely different character?

[hjcallipygian]

I don't know, I don't watch either version of The Office. I think they're both the receptionist character, though.

[smittywing]

*grin* I don't watch them either - but I have this trigger "let's look it up on IMDb! reaction to everything. The actress WAS in Shaun of the Dead. Which I also haven't seen, but I think that's probably a failing.

Also, when did Danny become so hot??

[smittywing]

Dude, I dunno.

I mean, I always kind of thought Brad Whitford was hot in that same way that David Hewlett is hot: They're attractive when they're active, when they're in motion, when they're excited. But as Josh he was just such a goober, it mitigated the drooling factor. But the tired look, the glasses on the forehead, the line he had when he told Jordan that his habits only endangered himself...Danny just totally set my couch on fire.

I...got nothing.

[aurora_84]

See, I've never seen the West Wing (omg, don't glare *hides*), but now I totally want to, because, God, Brad!

I just watch S60 and stare at him in fascination, because in the first couple of eps he didn't do anything for me. And suddenly he's HAWT. :D

[smittywing]

OMG, I'm not glaring, I'm just trying to figure out how to GET you West Wing. I have one episode on .avi, but it's a later season episode, maybe season 4 or 5 and that's when Sorkin left and the writing was starting to slip. Season one is a thing of gold and season two pretty much rocks, as well. Season three was fairly solid and had some great moments, and the rest of the seasons had moments, but I don't know that they were the same LOVE as the earlier ones.

I am resisting from giving you specific episodes to watch because I can't tell you where to get them but if you WANT specific episodes, I'm all over that.

glutton for punishment

[annon_of_rhi]

I am such a glutton for punishment.... I KNOW you're still probably ages away from finishing TBTILAF, but I couldn't help myself, and had to read it all over agin, thereby stirring up all the evil cliffhanger-hating emotions I had repressed by following my original plan of ignoring it until it was finished.

*sigh*

I don't know why I do it to myself.

Re: glutton for punishment

[smittywing]

Aw, I'm sorry. I'm glad it's still good, though. :) It's maybe one-third to one-half done, and then there's beta for that part, beta for the entire thing, and then posting. I can't believe it's almost done. :P
