rosengirl: (DW : Ten/Donna it broke my hearts)
So I'll get this out of the way since everyone and their dogs are talking about it.

My Eleven Wishlist :

- Philip Glenister (if A2A stopped after the next series it could happen and I want it so damn hard !)
- David Morrissey (I know it's so in our face that it's not likely but I can't rule it out because it would be hilarous if that was actually it)
- Dylan Moran
- Stephen Fry
- James Nesbitt
- Julian Barratt (it's my list I put who I want *sticks tongue*)
- Jack Davenport (mostly for eyecandy reasons I admit)
- Julian Rhind-Tutt (I know I'm saying this over one guest stint on Merlin but he would totally pull it off)
- Russell Brand... No I'm joking. No. Really, I'm joking. Hahaha. *clears throat*

I've heard about the Paterson Joseph rumours but I have no opinion since I've never seen him in something. Maybe he would be a better choice because I didn't know Tennant or Eccleston before they got the part either.

I thought I was taking the news about Tennant leaving relatively well except that I discovered that I can't watch a Ten songvid without wanting to cry right now. Eh.


As for this week's teevee watching (in short)

The last 2 Pushing Daisies delivered their usual dose of happy happy. I love that show and its adorableness. However I don't think I would terribly miss it if it was cancelled because as much as I enjoy what I see, I have zero investment in it. But it is absolutely cute and good natured and I love Lee Pace like pie <3

Chuck now has Buster in it and it is even more AWESOME. Buster !

No HIMYM this week and it BLOWS.

House... needs a cut. )

The Office and Ugly Betty were doing fine this week. Well, apart from *that* breakup WHICH I DO NOT WANT.

SPN roxxors, especially Dean and Castiel. This season is made of epic win.

Never Mind The Buzzcocks 22x05 or 06 (whatevs) WAS MADE OF 57 FLAVOURS OF AWESOME. SPECIAL MENTION TO THE HILARIOUSNESS OF GERMAINE GREER, JAMES CORDEN AND THE MIGHTY CARDIGAN. It made me totally forget about my rage towards the Russell Brand censure.

Beautiful People 104/105. Posh Spice doll and Lady Di. SERIOUSLY. The fact that [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy and I seem to be the only ones watching this show is beyond me. It honestly is the best new series of the year ! It has heart, hilarious characters and situations, 1997 period reconstitution, awesome singing and dancing, fabulousness AND NOT TO FORGET MY FAVOURITE HISTORY BOY. You *have* to watch it, why aren't you watching it ??



GO GIRLFRIEND ! ♥


I've also watched two new brit series this week :

The first two episodes of Little Dorrit which I'm loving so far.
I started for the delightful miss Freema Agyeman in the first place (and she is adorable and a bit bonkers but most importantly, an awesome victorian lesbian ! *___*) but the rest of the cast is also good. Matthew Mc Fadyen is all blue eyes and still makes woobie faces like a pro, Russell Tovey is made of Kittens, Eve Myles makes retarded look adorable and Andy Serkis creeps the hell out of me and I love him for it. I was a bit disappointed that Freema and her Epic Lesbian Love Story wasn't part of episode 2 but the loveliness of the rest made up for it.

I'm also following Dead Set since I'm a sucker for Zombie flicks. The first 10 minutes were boring as hell but once they got started it was FTW and I've been hooked these past few days. Zombie stories are ALWAYS the same but I'm never ever tired of it, don't ask me why ! The utter crackiness of having it mixed with big brother makes some moments priceless (I was sold at the zombie massacre set to Mika's Grace Kelly XD). I cannot wait to see the last episode which airs tonight, it's been a lot of fun.


Tomorrow I'm meeting with [livejournal.com profile] angeliksmall and [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy for Quantum of Solace and tomorrow night it's Merlin Party at Cath's place. Since 107 looks full of Arthur and Epic Slash, I really can't wait. It will be the first time we watch a Merlin episode between fangirls <3
rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A like you could hide it *sno)
I waited, I waited and then, I waited some more. It was a long wait, until my dl finished in 10 minutes tops and I FINALLY saw it.

Even if the slash was misdirected this week, the episode in itself was absolutely brilliant !

Merlin 106 - A Remedy to Cure All Ills )

I also did a tiny batch of icons from this week's episode :

And now for more pimping :

I showed it yesterday to my fellow fangirls and I promised to put a link so here is my favourite Arthur/Merlin songvid :

10, 000 Nights

I lost count of how many times I've watched this but it never fails to put a stupid smile on my face.


Here's the other one [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy talked about yesterday :

All Fall Down

AND IT IS GORGEOUS. And angsty. And makes you feel THEIR EPIC LOVE for one another.


I would do a post of fic recs if I wasn't so lazy but will link you to my merlin fic folder in my memories. I will keep adding the ones I like regulary.


Since I made it clear in my last tweets that I was OBSESSED WITH THE NEED curious to hear Colin speak with his irish accent, I thought I would share this cute interview :



OH OKAY THEN. *promptly drops dead*


I laughed so hard at the sight of the dvd cover for the first vol. of the series (picturing Arthur and Merlin looking all SRS BZNS in the foreground with the Slash Dragon giving his blessing behind them) that I preordered it immediately *shallow and weak*


I'll do a post on every other teevee I watched that wasn't Merlin probably soon.
rosengirl: (RDJ : Tropic Thunder team of win/fail)
Robert Downey Jr's acceptance speech of some award.




OMG Greatest. Acceptance speech. Ever.

Also, how NOMable is he in that Sherlock outfit ? The mind boggles.

RDJ DON'T EVER CHANGE.


Now continuing in the lulz with two HILARIOUS picspams from the two gayest episodes of the two gayest shows on the telly right now :

House 5x04 - Birthmarks : "Join me on the dark side." BE MY QUEEN!

Merlin 1x05 - Lancelot : There is absolutely NO WAY that this is magic. Even though the last four major threats to our city have been magical. NO WAY IN HELL.
rosengirl: (Merlin : Arthur  wants you to touch it)
I became bored of the central column disposition of my layout so I ended up doing a complete makeover.
I aimed for something a bit more classier and autumnal.
I still love my british fandoms to death but I hadn't done proper justice to my epic love for House yet (the quotes I used for the header are all from that blessed 5x04 <3).

In other news I watched Merlin 105 and it was *so* lovely! It's improving every week and getting slashier and slashier by the minute !

But most of all, let me tell you about MAH GIGANTIC CRUSH ON ARTHUR PENDRAGON.

O.M.F.G. His hotness has reached such an insane level of BURNING that I almost didn't come out of this in one piece )


My Merlin love has reached the point of spending time on it to do an icon batch, so um, yay.


Preview



nine icons behind the cut )
rosengirl: (Merlin : Arthur is a drama queen)
I was nowhere near teh intrawebs this weekend but I did catch up with last week's teevee.


So in very short, let's review !


Californication )


The Sarah Jane Adventures )


How I Met Your Mother )


Heroes )


Chuck )


House )


Pushing Daisies )


Never Mind The Buzzcocks )


The Office )


Ugly Betty )


Supernatural )


Secret Diary of a Call Girl )


Life on Mars US )


Merlin )


And now, with EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS TO [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy's PIMPAGE OF ORSUM :


Beautiful People )

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THIS SHOW, LIKE, RIGHT NOW.
rosengirl: (DW : Master/Donna MAKE IT HAPPEN !)
GIP inspired by the sheer awesomeness that is [livejournal.com profile] omphalos'Cladogenesis series and a great deal of wishful thinking.


So this week's teevee watching has been globally brilliant and since I already reviewed Heroes and House, here's the rest :

babble about How I Met Your Mother, Lost in Austen, Supernatural, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, The Office, Ugly Betty, Merlin and a bit of *very* Old Who )


STILL. Tomorrow is the return of the Sarah Jane Adventures and I CANNOT WAIT (judging by last night's dream which included me and her fighting sontarans, I really can't).

I'm also a bit sad by the fact that Rusty's book hasn't arrived and I have to use all the willpower to not read every single extract posted on the intrawebs (I've already seen too much, argh).
rosengirl: (DW : old skool three era of pwnage)
Lost in Austen 101/102

It's like the worst idea ever for a series turned into something amazingly brilliant !
The cast is magnificent and made of an important amount of Doctor Who actors (Mrs Bennett, Kitty Bennett, Caroline Bingley and Charlotte Lucas), which is fun.
Bingley is *adorable* and unexpected!Alex Kingston as Mrs Bennett is made of 57 flavours of awesome ! I'm really enjoying this so far and it totally made me want to reread P&P badly.


Merlin 101

HILARIOUSLY BAD.
Arthur and Merlin are pictured as the highschool stereotypes of the obnoxious jock and the misunderstood emo kid.
Giles!Pendragon is quite enjoyable and Jethro!Merlin is admitedly cute as hell, even if their characters are *very* conventional.
Eve Myles made a lovely witch <3
The talking dragon made me LOL hard and Jethro!Merlin's powers made him look like a long lost sister Halliwell.
It's the kind of bad that makes you keep watching for the cracklulz, though.


I also tried watching the Middleman 102 and gave up 7 minutes in, so this is definitely it for me.
It's like I know I should find it awesome but everything seems flat and fake and I can't get into it at all.



On the old skool Who front, I've finished watching Colony in Space which was pretty dull overall except for the Master being all "LET'S RULE THE UNIVERSE TOGETHER, BB" to the Doctor, once again.
God I love his clinginess !

The Daemons is much more entertaining so far. Especially for Benton and Yates watching telly together and the sheer hotness of Vicar!Master *nghhh*
