YOU GUYS, MATT SMITH IS ABSO-FUCKINGLY-LY BRILLIANT AS DANNY FOSTER IN PARTY ANIMALS ! ♥

I'm up to 106 and I had to get that out of my chest ^^


So Party Animals is GREAT. It's more of a glorified soap set in a political context than a real drama about politics but the cast and the stories are really good and you can't stop watching it !
OF COURSE, it doesn't hurt that the series' real focus is about the lives of two brothers (Danny and Scott Foster) living together and being incredibly suspiciously close cute and domestic <33333

Danny is an idealistic, borderline naive but extremely clever researcher working for Labour Home Office Junior Minister Jo Porter. He is completely devoted to his work, socially challenged and very awkward. In other words he is ADORKABLE.
Scott is a lobbyist who works for a firm keen on making friends with the Tory party. He is a gorgeous prick but has sweet sweet moments of vulnerability. Still a prick, though. He cares deeply about his little brother.
When I say care, I mean glomping, hair ruffling, guilty crisis and occasional cry in each other's arms. Oh yes.

We follow two teams of young researchers, Danny and Kristy (Andrea Riseborough from Being Human and the Devil's Whore ♥) from the Labour HQ and Matt and Ashika who work for Shadow Minister James Northcote (Patrick Baladi aka Excelsior from No Heroics !). It's quite interesting to have a critical view on both sides.

Apart from Danny, the characters aren't nice and they all have personal agendas, which is perfect to depict people in politics.

I love pretty much all of them, even if I mainly watch to have Matt making me flail like mad. HE IS SO GOOD.
There's something definitely doctorish about him in the way he moves. He's quite... Fidgety. He has great charisma too and he proved me that he can easily be leading man material.
I can't unsee it now.

I am 600% convinced that he will do great things in DW and just, yes let it be 2010 already (sorry Dave !).

EDIT : if *that* doesn't finish to convince you to watch then, er, you are bloody weird !

/end EDIT.


I did cap the hell out of it and made some textless icons, mostly for myself but I thought I'd share teh love :

You're welcome ^^

[sunlightdances.livejournal.com]

Ooh! That Boosh/TARDIS icon - is that takeable? If not I shall simply sit and stare at it lovingly. XD

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

It totally is as long as you credit me, cheers ^^

[sunlightdances.livejournal.com]

Hurrah!

[whatthebec.livejournal.com]

oh dear, that show is amazing.
the ending is a little disappointing, however.

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

Your icon is too *g*

I am up to 106 so I haven't seen it yet but I know that they left it open ended although the BBC never commissioned a second series, which is too bad.

[whatthebec.livejournal.com]

awww thanks.

there needed to be a second series. too many things left unsaid and all that.

[jellyfish62.livejournal.com]

Conclusion: I need to watch this shit ASAP. Also: I need a Matt Smith icon and yours are teh pretty :D

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

You need it bad, it is teh shit.

Yay for Matt Smith icons, they spread love and support and he needs some, poor lad :(

[nicelyobsessed.livejournal.com]

La série à l'air très sympa, sinon ton icone du Boosh devant le Tardis est trop funny.

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

Elle est vraiment super, j'attends de voir si la fin est si décevante que ça mais je pense que je vais acheter le dvd ! Au moins pour Matt Smith parce qu'il est <3<3<3 dedans.

Merci pour l'icone (et le header ? XD)

Snagging 9 & 18.

Dammit, he just looks more and more fanciable in every icon set!

Thanks. :)

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

The more Matt fanciers the merrier ^^

Thank you !

[sparklingjill.livejournal.com]

Looking at your icons, I have to say... I love him. I love everything about him. I have to find this on dvd in London. Oh my God, now I love Eight, Ten and Eleven. I'm a Doctor slut!

[rosengirl.livejournal.com]

It's definitely worth buying on dvd and if you love him now, you can't imagine how much more you will after seing him as Danny.

Pervy doctor fanciers are okay in my book ;)

[ticking-empathy.livejournal.com]

mmm, can't decide which to take but i'll credit when i take k

:)

[slaygalthessily.livejournal.com]
