Mostly fannish miscellany!

I love the Reaper I've watched. I love the premise, I love it when people explore the dimensions of Satan, I love the friendships...<3

[airie_fairy]

Also, yes, it got renewed.

[stunt_muppet]

Yay! *cheers* Maybe I'll be able to keep up with it next season. And I haven't seen anything besides the pilot yet, but already Satan is one of my favorite characters. "Oh, yeah, that's not gay at all." XD

NINE/ADRIC R U SRS? OMG SAY U R SRS. WILL IT BE MY SPESHUL TRAUMATIZEDBYMASTER!ADRIC? CANON!ADRIC WOULD BE HILARIOUS, THO.

I can beta by e-mail just fine; my new addy is my first and last name (no spaces or underscores) at Gmail. I'm not doing much at the moment so you can send it whenever.

P.S. you might wanna check my journal because I kinda, um, got into a... an argument... with Nu Who. >.> there was some yelling.

[stunt_muppet]

I R SRS. UNFORTUNATELY IT DOES NOT INVOLVE TRAUMATIZED!ADRIC BUT THERE IS VARIOUS AND SUNDRY SCREWING WITH TIMELINES. It's right there on the other side of the link. :D

...goodness, that was an epic shouting match you got yourself into. I hope no furniture was thrown. :(

Obviously, an epic New Who Season 1 Rewatch is in order; I'd hate to lose my grasp on dear Nine. :D

This is ALWAYS the right answer.

[stunt_muppet]

Yes, yes it is. Apparently, The Unquiet Dead was actually really awesome and I just didn't remember that. It's good to have reminders.

[airie_fairy]

People slag off that episode but I remember loving it! (Even if it did get a little jumbled at the end.)

[stunt_muppet]

I don't actually remember how I felt about that episode the first time I saw it, but even though it didn't stick out the first go-round I'm sure I didn't hate it. What's to hate?

[rainbowstevie]

CSI finale was not so bad, actually. Jammed with lots of good stuff to make up for the bad part.

[stunt_muppet]

But but but but no more Warrick. I'm having issues dealing with that even as an abstract concept. But if I don't see it, it didn't happen, right?

While I liked the SVU finale's impact, I had a few problems with it. Primarily, that they had a cop murder someone and at the end he's in the patrol car heading off to jail. Why does that bother me? Because in the Homicide: Life on the Street movie, Det. Bayliss confessed to murdering a perp and was being led off to his fate. I know there are a lot of similarities with cop dramas, but to me it looked like they ripped the idea and twisted it to their own means. The real 'crime' is what they did to Casey Novak. (Adam Beach didn't 'gel' with the other members of the cast, but them firing Diane Neal made me really peeved.)

I'll probably watch the first few eps, just to see how they'll handle the fact Ice really isn't leaving the show. I think having two people leave this season was quite enough.

Ah. See, I didn't see the HLOTS movie (or, um...more than a few episodes of HLOTS period; I need to get on that), but I've definitely seen that visual before (of a cop murdering a perp and the last shot of him being seated in the back of a police car), so it didn't jump out at me. And I never really connected with Lake's character, so I can't say I was all broken up about him leaving, but his actions in this episode seemed so much more extreme than anything I'd seen him do before. I'd missed a couple of episodes, but even so, this seemed out of left field.

I am especially resentful of what was done to Casey Novak; she's mostly whom I'm reffering to when I talk about sacrificing character credibility for drama. The Casey Novak I knew wouldn't have broken the rules so blatantly, no matter what. It made her look reckless and incompetent, and she isn't.
