My weekend foray into television catch-up ended up being a Band of Brothers marathon. ( I don't know, I guess I felt like crying a lot. )

good news, tv, review

YESSSS, I very much enjoyed this. God, isn't it good? Donnie Wahlberg was a REVELATION. And haha, yeah, it's really hard to tell everyone apart on first watch. Like, everyone, haha. Thanks for running around in the dark in uniforms with charcoal rubbed on your faces, white boys I cannot tell apart.

Seriously, when he wasn't imbibing/searching for VAT 69 or trying out lines on Winters, he was shown to be asleep. <333

HEE. That's the best description of Nixon I've ever seen.

Also, DAMIAN LEWIS, RIGHT? He is ridic.

Haha, I know! It was super helpful when they took off their helmets for Poignant Moments, but then I was like, "OH GEEZ, well put it back on! Trees are exploding!"

a) I'm not generally interested in shows where women aren't central characters and b) I didn't think I could sit through a million hours of war.

YES, this is exactly why I put off watching BoB for as long as I did, and then last year I watched it for the first time and loved it and watched the whole thing again like three times over the course of the next three months. Man, it is beyond amazing.

Damian Lewis is...yeah, I don't know if I have any thoughts on Damian Lewis that aren't ridiculously overwrought, but I've seen pretty much everything that dude's ever been in and I'm pretty sure he might be one of the best actors currently living (I suppose I could be blinded by his pretty, but I'm pretty sure I'm right). He is TRAGICALLY underrated.

BoB is so great! I should've had belief, man. But I'm always suspicious that Spielberg's going to sneak in aliens or something.

Oh Damian Lewis, why so good?
