rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A Magical euphemism)
YOU GUYS, MERLIN 107 WAS SO AMSDDJSADJAMDJM A-MA-ZING THAT I STILL CAN'T BRING MUCH COHERENCE TO MY THOUGHTS ABOUT IT.

We were at [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy's place with [livejournal.com profile] angeliksmall last night and we were so blown away by the sheer squee-inducing GLEE that we watched it twice in a row and again once this morning at breakfast AND IT IS STILL A-MA-ZING.

I'm going to fail at reviewing but let's just say that Arthur is a crazy-beautiful arrogant arse, Merlin is the Ultimate definition of adorkable and they both have the hots for each other in A PAINSTAKINGLY OBVIOUS WAY. So much in fact that it was dripping from the telly *flail x infinity* Boy, how I love Bradley and Colin's A-MA-ZING chemistry.

Tiny bit more detailled ramblings, not much more coherence though. )


I plan to icon the hell out of this awesome, awesome episode soon.


Then again I could have replaced the entire content of this post by

:D


To the same effect.
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 :

(credits to [livejournal.com profile] rosengirl)





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: (House : beautifully damaged)
OH SHOW, YOU ARE SO WAWSOME IN EVERYTHING.


*sigh* <33333333333333333333333333

If you're happy I'm... *leaves* )

EDIT (thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sam42) : an HILARIOUS screencaps recap of the ep focusing on The Ghey. (Which shockingly reminded me that Cameron was indeed in it, I appeared to have blanked her out as hard as House did in the opening scene, lol.).

(But seriously THIS I want to steal away and cover in little hearts <333333333)

ROTFL. THEM. ♥
rosengirl: (HIMYM : Barney/Robin BWZUH ??)
How I Met Your Mother 4x05 - Shelter Island )



The Sarah Jane Adventures 205 - Secrets of the Stars part 1 )



Beautiful People 103 - How I Got My Beads )


I will watch Chuck tomorrow, I'm not even bothering myself with Heroes anymore.
I will also put Dexter and Californication on hold for now because I'm already behind and I have too many shows to watch per week as it is.

House 5x04

Oct. 15th, 2008 10:09 pm
rosengirl: (House : H/W OBVIOUSLY in love)
OHMYFUCKINGGODEXPECTATIONSEXCEEDEDBRAINBROKEFROMSQUEEOVERLOAD.

1. House and Wilson are not best friends, BEST FRIENDS DO NOT ACT LIKE THAT WITH EACH OTHER,KTHX.

2. Now I will never believe that this show don't have a gay agenda. Doctor Who shmoctor who, at last the term found its proper meaning.

3. That episode made me happy with SUCH AN EPIC INTENSITY that I'm pretty sure it was the highest point of my week AND CANNOT BE TOPPED.

4. SERIOUSLY, apart from the onscreen sexxors, House and Wilson are definitely the canonest of ALL the slash pairings in the history of slashdom, amarite or AMARITE ?

I knew you couldn't stay away, I knew you loved me too much ! )


So after *that* I can't even review the other shows because clearly, there's no point.


Let's just say that :

Chuck : ADORABLE and somewhat sad.

Heroes : I am this close to stop watching you, show. QUIT THE RIDICULOUS PLOT AND THE STUPIDITY OF CHARACTERS I USED TO LIKE OR WE'RE THROUGH.

Haven't watched the rest just yet.

Oh wait I've also started to read Rusty's book and the things you learn in it are fascinating !
I couldn't stop laughing when I read that in TW series 2, he meant to kill Ianto initially XD The fandom would so have exploded ! and I would have paid good money to see it happen, LOLZ cheap entertainment.


There's also lots of amazing candid photos of the cast and crew which are absolutely lovely and squee worthy <3

Blaaaaaaah

rosengirl: (House : House/Cuddy Gene&Alex style)
This night's teevee watching wasn't so great.

HOUSE YOU LET ME DOWN *emo tear*

House 5x03 - Adverse Events )

Of course I know next week's going to make up for it since we're going to seespoiler for 5x04 )


Dude, how dull was Heroes this week ??

Heroes 3x03 - One of Us, One of Them )

Well, after such a good start, I hope it will pick up again next week.
rosengirl: (DW : martha n donna > rose anyday)
Sarah Jane is BACK !

SJA 201 - The Last Sontaran part 1&2 )

*In great need of a sja icon*


Hank Moody is BACK !

Californication 2x01 )



How I Met Your Mother 4x02 )


Heroes and Chuck can wait tomorrow (*after* House obv.) because Sydney Bristow is calling. I need to speed up my marathon !
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: (House : Hugh blue/orange)
Wheeeeeee. I love tuesday wednesday !

House 5x02 - Not Cancer )


I would love 2 hours episodes like with Heroes last night because I wouldn't be *so* frustrated everytime it unexpectedly ends *grumbles*
rosengirl: (HIMYM : Barney/Robin BWZUH ??)
AAAHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAHHHHHHHH


AHHAAAAAAAHAAHHHHAAAAAAAHHHHHH


AAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!



I HAVE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW UNEXPECTEDLY AWESOME IT WAS.

Sweet mother of gawd.

okay one or two observations )

HEROES, YOU BETTER KEEP BEING THIS FTW IN THE FUTURE, KTHX.
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*
rosengirl: (The Fall : Team Bandits)
Alias season 1 which I'll finish tonight is AWESOMECAKES. I remembered that every 3 episodes they managed to make me yell NO WAI !!!1!!11 back when I watched them for the first time. IT WAS SO AMAZING !
I have seriously fallen for that show all over again <3

I've also watched two gorgeous films.

The Fall



MORPHIN3 )


Atonement



Come back to me )


The latest teevee :

Secret Diary of a Call Girl 203 )

Supernatural is going to be so controversal this year.

Spn 4x01 - Lazarus Rising )


Lost in Austen 101 and the last 3 episodes of Alias season 1 are next.



In non watching news, here is something worthy to read :

All of the people that hated the Bad Wolf Bay scene with Rose and Handy from Journey's End ? Russell T. Davies basically earned loads of respect by giving us reason in his upcoming book.

Here's the interesting and incredibly insightful bit about what was wrong with that scene.

He's thoughts on the matter actually impressed me for once.
Too bad he didn't have the time to change it but it's very reassuring to know that he's aware he screwed up and wasn't thinking he was coming up with the best closure scene evar.

I totally pre-ordered it btw because every quote I've read from it so far are honest and not full of self-worship. It makes it look like it's going to be a fascinating read.
rosengirl: (House : House/Wilson miserable T-T)
That hurt.

I mean apart from the fact that it should be renamed House&Wilson m.d. by now, srsly. The level of importance given to their relationship is becoming ridiculously ftw.

House 5x01 - Dying Changes Everything )
rosengirl: (DW : Donna lost)
DONNA IS OWNING ME SOMETHING FIERCE AND I'LL NEVER WANT TO LET HER GO, KTHX.

Doctor Who 411 - Turn Left )

AND THAT'S IT. Because my heart needs to stop racing.

DONNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!11!!1!
rosengirl: (DW : red!hot Ten)
Humanity. Greatest monster of them all.

That was what the Master said to the Doctor last year and this is this week's episode in a nutshell.

Oh Doctor, you're so handsome. Yes I am, thank you. )
rosengirl: (DW : Ten/Donna fire red)
I don't know how he pulls it off everytime but he's a dead impressive writer.

IT WAS SO BRILLIANT. I AM A BIT SPEECHLESS RIGHT NOW.

Doctor Who 409 - Forest of the Dead )

I need a River icon !
