Yesterday was indeed the sad day where Kings came to an end for me and I'm still not over the frustrating ending.
No more Jack Benjamin crying all over the place or being devious and manipulative.
No more delightfully creepy Macaulay Culkin <333
No more MAGNIFICENT King Silas.
No more magical reverend Samuels.
No more conflicted yet efficient Thomasina.
No more cracky guards !
No more uber classy & ruthless Queen Rose.
No more of David's puppy eyes which had me exasperated most of the time but I'll probably miss his delicious scenes with Silas and Jack !
No more Michelle WOOT WOOT !
Oh and Joseph be still my heart forever and ever ♥
In conclusion Kings taught me that a fate worse than death = Het. Thank you for making this statement canon, show \o/
I found this lovely vid and I definitely realised that Jack is probably one of my all time favourite characters and that the show was taken from us way too soon DAMNIT.
Jack Benjamin {Kings} Lost from mojo5000 on Vimeo.
Such a gorgeous show, too. ;___;
But it's also a time for happy returns like the new series of
the Sarah Jane Adventures starting this week YAY :
( trailer + squeeful comments behind the cut )And an other completely unexpected return was the new
Law & Order UK episode that popped up on the intrawebz and I sure hope that the rest will follow because DEAR GAWD I totally forgot how good that series was.
Freema is absolutely stunning and I really think that it's her best role by far. She did a great career move when she decided to pick Alesha because she really shines and I'm completely proud and impressed by her in this (not that I'm giving up my Marfa luv but she has more room to stretch her acting muscles in L&O and it's really showing).
My shippy heart was delighted to have good Alesha/James interactions and I was also *so pleased* to have Matt and Ronnie's awesome partnership on my screen again
, and you know, Jamie Bamber's gorgeousness doesn't hurt one bit, same goes for Ben Daniels hot like burning. I won't talk about Freema. NO I DO NOT WATCH FOR SHALLOW REASONS.
The ending was unexpected and pissed me off but I guess that it was good for added realism. I loved that the procecutors fought so hard to work on the case though.
The rest of my telly watching in a few words :
( Criminal Minds aka the show who drives me crazy with only one episode a week ) ( Glee ! ) ( Supernatural )( The Office - you should REALLY WATCH THOSE if you gave up on the show to feel the love again. ) Dollhouse : Criminal Minds, meet Dollhouse. Dollhouse, meet Criminal Minds. Loved the concept ! Enver Gjokaj is one of the best reason for not cancelling the show.
Also, KIKI!VIKTOR/BALLARD FOREVAH.
Merlin : twas my favourite episode of the new series so far and I SHIP EVERYONE WITH EVERYONE. Nobody was left out and it was properly glorious <3
In conclusion this :
> ALL. *loves her subtextually dodgy show to death*
Oh and speaking of Arthurian legend, THIS WEEK IS ALSO
KAAMELOTT'S RETURN ON FRENCH TV YES ! Last series of the only french show we can be proud of <3
