TV post! With a meme at the end! Whee!
Heroes: I think I'm all talked/meta'ed out (uhuh, yeah), so, suffice it to say: I loved it and I'm so glad it's back! That hiatus was so long, and they teased so much with the trailers and the promo appearances and all that good stuff, I was a little worried I might be let down in the end. It wasn't so - at ALL. I heart the show with violence. There's nothing not to like, nada! ♥ If you want to read my thoughts on Godsend, I can hit you up with a link or two. They're rambly.
Anyway, speaking of long hiati: COME BACK LOST! I miss you. *sadface* I always forget to download the new One Tree Hill episodes for my friend Eileen on Thursday mornings, because if Lost's not on, then, there's nothing on. It's how my mind works. (Yes, I do realize how pathetic that is.) 13 days! *sigh*
Moving on...
Studio 60: Holy crap, Danny is a creep. It's actually bordering on scary. Character's really a long way from Josh Lyman, heh. Not necessarily a bad thing, story-wise, but so awkward to watch. Also: I adore Matt and I love Harry and Tom/Lucy is the loveliest thing ever and even Jordan is pretty great most of the time, but you know who I love the mostest? JACK RUDOLPH. ghjj hjfahg with the "you're a moron" and standing his ground and the Chinese self-teaching (LOL!) and everything. Pwn.
The Office: I don't think I've ever shared my feelings on The Office yet, and I have a very good excuse for that. Words simply can't express them. There aren't enough superlatives inthe world my vocabulary. I love everything on The Office, and I love every one. EVERY ONE. Except Andy. I'm still debating whether it trumps Friends as best comedy ever, but to me, it's definitely the best currently on the air. (Oh, but, Jim really isn't my favorite. Eh.)
House: my Belgian friend Aurélie and I just made up the word cameronnerie, which is a contraction of Cameron and "connerie" (bullshit; bullshit statement; or action resulting from bullshit behavior; e.g. "arrête tes conneries!"), and that makes me giggle like a brainless schoolgirl. I guess that's only fair, since maturity seems to be failing me at the moment, but OH LOL! Cameronneries!
Grey's Anatomy: there's really not much for me to say, I'm enjoying the season, but not really getting overly enthusiastic or overly emotional like I might have been with season 2. However, I do appreciate the writers' skill in changing our minds on such and such character every few episodes. It tends to keep things fresh and I like it, though, obviously, there are characters I will always love. Also, does anybody know what that "falling awake" song was last week? (I'm being lazy!)
Supernatural: I think some of the dialogue, especially in more recent episodes, has felt awfully telegraphed, but that's really the only major fault I can find. This season's found its groove from the get-go, and thus far, I'm totally enjoying the ride. Angst!fest coming up on the horizon, as always, but those Winchester boys are nothing if not good at that. And I heart 'em for it.
I have an itch to catch up on Veronica Mars that I think I just might scratch. Maybe before Lost comes back. I also want to start Friday Night Lights, in large parts thanks to you and a little Kyle Chandler, so I'll do that possibly next month. Lastly, I feel compelled to see how good the Show-That-Trumped-The-Office-At-The-Globes (and thus, Shall Not Be Named) really is. I've caught the German version a couple of times, and just learned it has Christopher Gorham in it (who, for the record, could totally play Wilson's brother on House, yuhuh, *firm nod* if he hadn't gone and got his 'big break' before, pfft *headshake*). So, yes, some time. Definitely.
I didn't comment on the Golden Globes in a timely fashion, and I don't really have anything of interest to contribute even in hindsight. I just love that Hugh Laurie won again! *fangirls him and his wondersome speech*
And now, the meme! It's the favorite character meme, I stole it from every one because I enjoy it muchly. One of the answers is clearly stated in this post, so if you've been patient enough to read it through, there's an easy point for everybody. :D The rules:
1. Post a list of 20 fandoms.
2. Have your friends list guess your fave character from each fandom
3. When guessed, bold the fandom, put in brackets who got it and sentence why you like the character/person.

03. Firefly
04. House

Date: 2007-01-27 05:03 am (UTC)OMG LOST *awaits return expectantly*
The Office: Only seen the first season and I find it hilarious! Wish NZ would start airing the second season *sigh*
House: yay season 3 is finally about to hit NZ shores! I can't wait because I've heard House/Wilson go through a really rough patch or something? and I do so love seeing my characters all angsty heee.
Supernatural: Also about to start in NZ hoo-yay! I don't think anyone can beat the Petrellis but the Winchesters are great to I've heard.
I feel compelled to ask what show trumped The Office *sorry!* Was it Ugly Betty cause that started in NZ 2 weeks ago and I'm liking it so far!
[er yes suddenly everything has started airing in NZ. Even Heroes. I actually feel like giving the TV networks a huge hug]
XD Hugh Laurie: I am speechless. I am literally without a speech.
Plus the whole awesome rant of the gap in the market on sponsered speeches as gifts haha. I loved the my Heroes gave House the Globe.
aaahhh I am so going to get that meme wrong, but for the sake of playing the game I'll try
1. Jack
4. Wilson
5. uhm Nathan????
6. Jack Rudolph [though I've never seen the show...]
8. Joey
11. Michael
18. [yay you like Furuba!] um one of the Mabudachi Trio [is this cheating?]
19. OMG I haven't seen any of the X-Men movies completely! How lame is that? Ummm Wolverine?

Date: 2007-01-30 10:25 pm (UTC)Really, you loved the first season of The Office? :D That's great! I did, too, but it's considered the weakest by most American fans of the show. Seasons 2 & 3 are so hilarious, maybe it does suffer a bit in comparison, but anyway, yeah, awesome awesome show. ♥
Holy cow, yes, House and Wilson are in for a loop or three. My poor darling boys. Jackasses, too, both of them. Usually not at the same time. And you can't help but love them MORE for it. Guh. NEW EPISODE TONIGHT HEEEEE! ♥♥
Do let me know how you feel about Supernatural! The brotherhood of the Winchesters is so gorgeous, and angsty, and emo and everything.
Yep, that was Ugly Betty. And I loved that the Heroes cast gave Hugh his award too! Fandom collision, YAY! And did you notice how he hugged Grunberg? That was so sweet. :D
Meme results: 5/8, not bad at all! I counted your Furuba answer as correct. ;) And yes, it's utterly lame of you to not have watched the entire X-Men movies. ;P They're great! I promise you'll love them!

Date: 2007-01-31 10:43 am (UTC)Oh yay SPN starts Friday. Can't wait.
And did you notice how he hugged Grunberg?
Yea I was wondering if they were friends or something. Was cute :x
yay. And I intentionally cheated in the Furuba one. One of them had to be correct XD
ooh X-men is on TV this Saturday. Will tune in.
no subject
Date: 2007-01-31 10:51 am (UTC)YAY FOR SPN STARTING! :D
I was wondering if they were friends or something.
Absolutely, they are! They're even in a BAND together, how awesome is that? :D
Goodie!

Date: 2007-01-31 12:17 am (UTC)I agree on Supernatural. I almost wish it was a full-on parody because the writers are excellent at writing comedy that some of the serious stuff doesn't work anymore. I still can't get over the "Dark Side" comment by Sam. That's a line written for comedy.
Ahh, character memes are so hard.
1. Jack
2. Josh
3. Mal
7. New or old? I'll say Doug.
8. Chandler
11. Jim
13. Dean
16. Maria (I had no idea you watched Roswell!)
19. Logan

Date: 2007-01-31 10:23 pm (UTC)No, you did well! You only made one mistake, I'm actually impressed!
I began watching Roswell on TV when it started airing here, got a major crush on Max Evans
(I know. *rolls eyes*), and dropped it like a dirty habit when the new season of a shiny Idol-type show started on a different channel. Then my brother got me the S1 DVDs in a random act of kindness, and I fell in love all over again. With the show. ♥
