rosengirl: (Cherimon : Alex dozed off)
So last night's Merlin in a nutshell :

Gaius is a dick, Merlin needs to get in my pocket NOW and Arthur is the boss of comforting.

I'm still madly in love with you, show. Last night was your weakest of the series but next week looks relatively awesome if you blank the cut for sensible eyes ) I'm so Team Morgause on this one.


In other news, I'm still waiting for HIM to accept my marriage proposal.

rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A boys fooling around)
I spend my life on Twitter which means that I suck at lj updates right now and it makes me *SADFACE*. So I thought I'd do a post about some of the things I'm currently into (in no particular order).

- Merlin IDK what is happening with me but I LOVE IT. I'm experiencing a Squee Rebirth. I was in love with this show in s1, I was pretty exasperated by it during s2 and for some reason, s3 is rocking my socks off and all my squee is back full force ! It's still as silly as ever but I'm embracing it much more this year. Other weird thing is I've always been a Bradley/Arthur girl but this series I AM ALL ABOUT COLIN. COLIN. COLIIIIIIIIIIIIIN. He is awesome/CUTE AS HELL/ridiculously adorkable/awesome/talented/HOT/awesome. But I mean, it's not new, is it ? He always was and I still love Bradders'stupid face so idk why I'm like this but COLIN OMG COLIN.

- Single Father IS SO SO GOOD. David is just stellar for one (that scene with Rupert Graves in ep 2 OMFGGGGGGGGGGGG) and just blows me away every single scenes (a Dave in pain is the best kind of Dave, trufax) but the rest is incredible too. Great casting/direction/writing.

- Frankie aka Lip Service's very own SHANE. She is gorgeous and fucked up and fascinating, I love her. Can't wait for ep 2.

- The Nuke fandom is A-MA-ZING. I mean they put together an entire kink comm for [livejournal.com profile] la_fours's birthday. How cool is that ? My fandom is quite obviously cooler than yours. I still haven't read it all but so far so EXCELLENT.

- Drugged!Sherlock in the pilot episode *g* I only watched it 2 days ago and while lots of things were improved by A Study in Pink, I prefer by far the reveal/confrontation with the cabbie the way it was handled in the pilot. It pushed so many buttons of dirty!wrong. SO MANY. I also loved that John forgot his cane because he rushed off to save Sherlock in this version, and that the cabbie brought back Sherlock to 221b.

- The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang was watched again yesterday and STILL OH SO BRILLIANT ON REWATCH. I definitely declare it the best Nu Who finale ever *loves*

- Sam Evans from Glee is HOT. And geeky. And adorkable. And a sekrit gay who'll end up with Kurt ! I'll believe this until it doesn't happen. But I'm pretty confident it will. Darren Criss ILU but there's 'decoy' written on your pretty forehead. Someone said on twitter that Kurt, Sam and Quinn are the new Luke, Noah and Maddie AND IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. Darren will be the new Roth (with you know, actual screentime and characterization), just you wait.

- Brendan & Ste from Hollyoaks. So far they are loltastic because Ste is the naive slutty twink and Bren the Big Bad manipulative mustache'ed villain who does an hilarious Chuck Bass impersonation but they make me SQUEE something awful. This week is when things are finally turning hot/ugly/even more fucked up between them so I'm a bit EXTREMELY EXCITED and looking forward to what is said to become "one of the darkest soap SL ever" in the UK press. Bring it. Ps : the actors are also loltastic.

- Emmerdale's ANGST OF DOOM is killing. Me. WHY ARE THEY HURTING THEM LIKE THAT ? WHAT DID JACKSON EVER DO TO DESERVE THIS APART FROM BEING RIDIC AWESOME ? WHY ARE THEY HURTING US LIKE THAT. WHY ARE WE ALL IN A WORLD OF PAIN ? I can't feel you. ALSDKAMDLKSAMLDKMDKLASMLSDKAMSDKAMSDLKAMDKLSAMDLKMLSDKAMLSDKAMLDK.

- Deniz'sinful low cut shirt as pictured in this very well documented post.

- This Johnny Weir interview because he's rocking that stripped top, is fabulous and I love what he has to say about the gay teen suicides.




- Adam Lambert's cover of Metallica's Enter Sandman is UNEXPECTED AND AWESOME. He better snog his guitarist when I'll see him on stage. Because he seems to do that quite a lot.

- VAN HANSIS'S FACE I MISS IT SO FUCKING MUCH DDDD: get your ass back on FaBo, you ho.

- This Brian/Justin fanvid. OMFG. SO SO SO GORGEOUS. Oh my 2nd ever OTP. To this day you can still make me tear up. THEIR LOVE WAS SO EPIC.

- Chameleon Circuit is a brilliant album, I love it so much and listen to it constantly. You can listen to it all here (bottom of the page). Alex and Charlie also take a lot of my time. I want to marry one and have the other on the side, which works well since they already live together and I totally ship them. Ps : SASKIA HAMILTON. Pps : SO CANT WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM WITH PROPER VERSIONS OF THESE TWO FANTASTIC SONGS.
rosengirl: (Community : nope not me nevaaar)
It's Van's 29th birthday today and just like she did for Jake in june, Moey did another awesome PICSPAM OF EPICNESS.

Dear Van,

Stay this pretty forever.

Love, me.



Tv week has been extremely busy for me but it was mostly good.

Merlin 301 : EPIC AND SLASHY AS HELL. I also love Merlin and Morgana's rivalry and Uther is a fierce mofo, the end.

Him and Her 103 : I love this show ! Nothing happens and they're all awkard yet it works.

The Inbetweeners 302 : so far the new series is awesome ! I still love them all except for will but his fail in this one made me lol. As a gig lover, this ep spoke to me XD

Boardwalk Empire 1x01 : Great pilot, awesome characters, superb cinematography. MICHAEL PITT.

Chuck 4x01 : Quite good. Very nice guest star, loved Chuck and Morgan teaming up.

House 7x01 : AWFUL UGH. Only scene I liked was Wilson trying to break in. I quite liked Chase and 13 but the rest was like a bad fic. EXCRUTIATING. I don't think I'll be watching next week.

HIMYM 6x01 : All right, nothing amazing but I liked Marshall and Robin.

Gossip Girl 4x02 : The Chuck/Blair scene KILLED ALL. Serena's outfit hurt my eyes.

Glee 2x01 : awesome premiere ! I really like the new characters (hai thar Randy Harrison's doppelganger) and it was so nice to see the old ones again.

Running Wilde 1x01 : LOVED IT. Will Arnett and Peter Serafinowicz can talk to each other forever because it makes me melt. They're also hilarious and I now want a tiny horse.

Hellcats 1x03 : I SHIP EVERYONE IN THIS. It's not like the best show ever but I've become quite fond of it. Gale was in it this week, as gorgeous as ever *g*

Criminal Minds 6x01 : Loved Morgan's manpain, still liked Tim Curry as the unsub but the episode was average.

Community 2x01 : BEST RETURN SO FAR, HANDS DOWN. I loved everything about it TO DEATH.

The Big Bang Theory 4x01 : Lovely premiere as well ! The date was hilarious, Howard was too.

The Office 7x01 : Good premiere too. I missed Andy the most OMGLOVE <3 The lipdub was full of fail and awesome at the same time.

Supernatural 6x01 : not as bad as I feared but not especially great either. We'll see.
rosengirl: (DW : Matty/Arthur hipsters united)
SO.

ME AN [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy SECURED TICKETS TO GO SEE MATTY SMITH aka the Doctor, BENEDICT CUMBERBITCH aka the Master I am rooting for now AND EDDIE REDMAYNE aka the Master I was rooting for then (AND LOTS OF OTHER GREAT NAMES) ALL IN ONE NIGHT IN NOVEMBER.

They'll all perform in a play for charity (one night only) in London, infos HERE !


MY BRAIN CANNOT COMPUTE THAT SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED FANGASMIC OVERLOAD OF EPIC AWESOMENESS.




In other extremely good fannish stuff, THE MERLIN S3 PREMIERE ROCKED LIKE A ROCKING THING.

I love that show like pie for the slashiness and the crack but I never have high expectations. That premiere (and the trailer for next week) blew. Me. Away.

IT WAS EPIC AND IT HAD STAKES, I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THAT. I AM EXTREMELY IMPRESSED SO FAR. It's like they finally found how to hit third gear !
rosengirl: (L&O UK : Alesha/James OTP)
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
rosengirl: (Derren Brown dark thoughts)
So I watched the last of Derren's Events (How to take down a casino. Or not.) yesterday and I was quite baffled by the fact that the whole series ended on a failure.

Well it was a pretty close call since the ball of the roulette wheel ended up next to the number he guessed so it *was* impressive nonetheless but still. The guy who thought he was losing 5000 pounds made a special face when it happened and I love that the tech guys were all "don't worry we're giving your money back". End credits roll. LOL what a ludicrous ending !

Actually the part that really made my jaw drop was the trajectory guess on the squash court. I still can't wrap my head around it O_o

On second thoughts I kinda liked that he failed in the end because it was sort of cool in its unexpectedness but today, oh I JUST LOVE IT.

Because thanks to that, he's now posting silly vids of himself rambling about it while doing a Stewie (from Family Guy) impression. And it completely made my day.

Cracktastic vid behind the cut )

And those of you on twitter can follow me too if you have nothing better to do than listen to the transparent and lonely bids for affection from a balding middle aged man who ends living out of smug guesswork. ANYWAY TA TA ! The mind control device is almost ready.

This entire quote is the essence of my obsessive love for this man.


Now for the rest of the telly watching,


Meeeeerlin )


Dexter aka Desperate Serial Killer )


House Md aka Married, Without Children )


Gossip Girl )


Supernatural was very impressive, especially in the acting department. Jensen and Jared were at their most brilliant here.

Dollhouse is suprising because the start of the season is Echo centric but the episodes are really good and Dushku can act. Alexis's character needs to get more interesting for my sanity's sake though.

I liked HIMYM and I LOVED LOVED LOVED the Big Bang Theory, especially the Sheldon/Penny stuff and the Howard/Raj bits ♥.

FlashForward 1x02 was super weak imho, despite the fact that Jack Davenport had more scenes, which makes the mind boggle. I can't see myself sticking around for too long but I'll keep watching it for the few interesting stuff and my hope that it gets amazing soon (which I doubt).

Buzzcocks sans Simon was not the same but still very funny. I love the show for what it is so I'll stay committed to it.

My love/hate thing for Russell Brand has switched to Noel Fielding btw. I only have naughty feelings for Russell right now (saw Doing Life and the extras earlier and his brilliance is a bit blinding).


Now on the Joseph Gordon-Levitt front (yes please), I'm about to watch Brick and I also found out that he already did a film with Zooey Deschanel called Manic. He's the lead again and the pitch is pretty interesting *will get her hands on that one next*


Today is Glee/Criminal Minds Day.
I'm such a big fan of those todays.

rosengirl: (Merlin : Arthur killing me with gorgeous)
Criminal Minds )


Glee )


The Office )


Supernatural )


FlashForward )


Dollhouse )


Derren Brown )


Meeeeerliiiiiiiin )

In other news, I'm falling head over heels for Kings. I'm not even caring that I'm getting so worked up about a cancelled show anymore because IT'S WORTH A LOOK ANYWAY.
EVERYTHING IS AMAZING, ESPECIALLY THE ACTORS AND THE DIRECTION.


But the major reason for giving it a try : JACK BENJAMIN.


He is so complex, fucked up and damaged and CRIES SO PRETTILY. I'm addicted to him and his shenanigans.

[livejournal.com profile] jedicathy just totally pimped the shit out of him so I approve.
rosengirl: (Merlin : Bradley & Colin dorking it up)
They said this in the Merlin Confidential. Oh YES coz Merlin now has a Confidential which is totes WIN WIN WIN !!

Especially THIS BIT.

So my Merlin love is alive and kickin' ! It was for me the highlight of last week's teevee and I am impressed by how fast it could win my heart back ! It's just the cutest, most charming show ever and I love it in all its silly and cracky glory <3


HIS SPESHUL FACES, I MISSED THEM.


So basically...

Merlin 201 - The Curse of Cornelius Sigan )


ADORKABLE. *RUFFLES*



The rest of last week's teevee didn't disapoint either and all was good and entertaining.


Glee 1x02 - Acafellas )


The Office 6x01 - Gossip )


Supernatural 5x02 - Good God Y'all )

I know everyone's been psyched about the preview for next week which is why I refused to watch it. I can't wait to be completely delighted on friday thursday, though :)

I'm also finally up to date with Gossip Girl and enjoyed the season 3 premiere.

Gossip Girl 3x01 - Reversals of Fortune )


OMG this week so many more shows are returning ! I can't wait for the 2 hours premiere of House, I'm biting my nails for the Criminal Minds premiere, I'm extremely curious and excited about Dollhouse season 2 and I'm also happy for the returns of How I Met Your Mother and the Big Bang Theory. Another great week for telly, I hope !

Last night's Emmys were disappointing, no surprises there, but here's the single awesome bit :



I can't wait for Dr Horrible season 2, which is bound to happen Y/Y/Y/Y ?


To conclude :




SKILLS. HE HAS THEM.
rosengirl: (CM : Reid is the victim by default)
I'm not dead or anything, just unable to spend time online thanks to a new obsession that came completely out of the blue.

It all started when [livejournal.com profile] dresden_doll_01 pimped this vid :



I've never been attracted to Criminal Minds ever in my life, EVER. [livejournal.com profile] ephyse tried to pimp it for several years to us and I just couldn't bring myself to care. So I don't know why I decided to watch that vid a week ago, but afterwards something snapped and I went wrong(er) in the head. So I told myself that I should give it a shot, BECAUSE THAT PRETTY NERD SEEMED V. V. V. INTERESTING.

And instead of interesting me, he basically became my new drug and it's been a week now, I'm up to 205 and I cannot do anything else other than keep on watching everytime I can.

As it turns out, the SOAWESOMEICOULDCRY Dr Spencer Reid is the *ultimate* victim, which means that the show is hitting my hurt/comfort kink with SUCH FORCE that it's almost perverse.

He's also so wee and precious that every other (male) team members are GINORMOUSLY protective of him. So he's even slashable with the whole lot. What more could a fangirl ask for I TELL YOU.

IT'S LIKE HEAVEN, ONLY BETTER.

AND HERE'S A MARVELOUS REID PICSPAM TO PROVE MY POINT.

I also really like the rest of the cast (especially SUPER DUPER FBI AGENT HOTCHNER) and the show in itself, but mostly OMGREIDSOCUTEANDSMARTANDHURTING.

Long story short, I kinda NEED HALP, but I wouldn't take it anyway. I'm too much in love with my daily endless phone conversations with [livejournal.com profile] ephyse squeeing mindlessly about DR SPENCER REID AND HIS MULTIPLE PROBLEMS AND PAIRINGS.



In other news, I took an unexpected trip to Pierrefonds on tuesday afternoon with the entire team of us and we stalked the Merlin set and had the chance to see Colin Morgan, Bradley James (being extremely slutty and adorably playful with Angel), Angel Coulby and Katie McGrath. It was incredibly fun and I was glad to be able to join everyone else in the end (even if I had to brutally ditch work to do so XD).

[livejournal.com profile] fairy_bliss did an awesome picspammy report of the day over here.
rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A like you could hide it *sno)
The Merlin extras, man ♥
They made me fall in love with the cast all over again ! They definitely make the sweetest, most fun and easy going cast ever, by the look of it.
Colin was adorable, BRADLEY just totally and *utterly* priceless and Katie surprised me in a very good way.
I just loved when Colin controls planes with magic and when Bradley fake!bullies him. They all seem to get on so well <3

The No Heroics extras were also all kinds of GREEEEAAAT.
The creator of the series is a ginormous comics geek and about 16015344356 comics references were hidden in the Fortress, which they all listed here. He was mostly inspired by Watchmen

The making of showed yet another fun crew of lovely people but I'm afraid there's a very final feel to it. They took down the Fortress set halfway through shooting (I yelled ' OH NO !') and they showed the last day the actors were all together and they did an emotional group hug.
Ah well, it will be another one of those extremely short english masterpieces, like Nathan Barley ;__;

The bloopers were funny and the Power Hour interviews were *hilarious* especially the Excelsior one and the Timebomb one XD
Timebomb has also 2 extended scene, one with Fusebox in the toilets (filthier) and one with the Prince in the limo (just LULZ).

Ah Timebomb <3

I also watched Dollhouse and here are my mixed feelings about it )

I am willing to stick with it until it's cancelled to give it the chance to find its tone, though, because it wasn't completely horrible.
rosengirl: (Merlin : Arthur killing me with gorgeous)
Aaaaw it's finished ! I can't believe we'll have to wait almost whole yearfor the next series D:

Merlin 113 - Le Morte d'Arthur )

ROCK ON SERIES 2.
rosengirl: (PGSM : original Sailor Senshi)
Teh bro, [livejournal.com profile] angeliksmall and [livejournal.com profile] jedicathy are currently in London and went to see the Mighty Boosh last night at the Wembley Arena. My brother texted me a pic of the stage from their seats and I had a ridiculous squee moment on their behalf XD
I hope they enjoyed it as much as we did with eph. I even dreamt that we were with them at the stage door afterwards and that both Noel and Julian were there having their picture taken without annoying fangirls trying to grope them or screaming in their face, it was all very calm and not awkward, even for Julian. Wishful dreams : you has them.

I bought the DWM yesterday and Oh. My. God. I cannot tell you how RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED I am for the Doctor Who christmas special. I was reading the preview and the David Morrissey interview (that issue is full of incredibly hot pics of him, btw *____*) and I felt all tingly and joyful inside. I share my love between a lot of shows but nothing compares to this feeling I get when a new episode of Doctor Who is close to airing. It's indescribable but 100% awesome.

Light spoilers from the mag )

I AM SO EXCITED !

Telly I watched this week :

House was made of ultimate win !

House 2x11 Joy To The World )

The Buzzcocks finale PWNED. I didn't know who Josh Groban was before this and I AM INFATUATED NOW. He may sing terrifying stuff which may currently be growing on me but the guy is awesome beyond reason <3
Simon/Josh may be attractive but I'm really shipping him with his hand because JOSH GROBAN'S HAND/ JOSH GROBAN = OTP.
Also, Simon singing on Phil's shoulder : cuter than a basket full of kittens Y/Y ?
I enjoyed this series but they really, REALLY need to get Bill Bailey back.
I will also be sulking into next year because we never got to see the Russell Brand episode.

The IT Crowd 304 wasn't as funny as last week but I was still laughing like mad at some parts

INTERNET JOKES > YOUR USUAL JOKE )

____________________________


Merlin finale tonight ! Probably thanks to my obsessive mind focused elsewhere, I remain 100% spoiler free. I have my suspicions because I saw people freak out but I can't wait finding out in the actual episode since it rarely happens that way for me anymore. I hope it will meet my expectations ! (not that I'm worrying since Merlin rarely disappoints).

____________________________


Guitar Hero Worldtour is DANGEROUSLY ADDICTING. Playing drums or badly singing on Eyes of the Tiger made my entire week.

____________________________


You're probably wondering WTF I'm using this icon for by now so it's time to come clean.

This past week, thanks to a random post about the live action series, I fell back in an unexpected Sailor Moon kick. I never saw the end of the live action series so it was the opportunity. Except that I started from the beginning because I couldn't remember where I stopped. OH THE GLORIOUS CRACK. MY HEART, IT CAVED.
Eventually I saw some episode of the anime on youtube and thought that it would be kind of time, ten years after the end, to get my hands on the 200 episodes and 3 films and watch everything properly, uncensored and in japanese. Not that I have a gazilion things to watch already, noooo.
It's not my fault really, Sailor Moon is basically made of complete win. The live action series is addicting and the anime, from the few episodes I rewatched aged surprisingly well.

I should mention that I often said that the first show I had a real fannish obsession about was Buffy, which is not entirely true. Sailor Moon was the very first real fannish affair I had during my preteen years. Because I wasn't only watching the censored, badly dubbed version on the Club Dorothée obsessively, I was also making scrapbooks and collecting every items I could find on my beloved anime.

Rediscovering it today in all its glory feels very special. I read on a website that french censorship on the anime wasn't, in fact, about violence but principally concerned the established gay relationships and gay characters. Either they changed dialogues to make it look like a 'deep frienship' or they cut whole scenes altogether. Heaven forbid children to be exposed to the existence of homosexuallity, right ? Needless to say that I was shocked and appalled.

So that's my current quest, watching all things Sailor Moon, good and proper.
Surprising nostalgic rush of burried love is surprising.

First, obligatory YAYZ IT RULES ! For Merlin's confirmed second series. (I love Tony's answer about his link to the current bets for Eleven XD)
Let it be as fabulously gay as the first one ♥

And then aww poor David ! I hope the surgery will go well *pets*
However I'm happy to know that it's Edward Bennett (Laertes) who has been replacing him as Hamlet because he is a brilliant actor and I have awesome memories of his performance when I saw the play.
rosengirl: (Merlin : Uther/Morgana is the new black)
Merlin was superb last night.

They are fantastic at crack but I really have a thing for the darker episodes.

I'm reviewing this from memory so I may forget a ton of stuff.

Merlin 112 - To Kill A King )

I knew the title of the finale so I wasn't completely surprised by what the trailer shown us but OMFG DOES IT LOOK EPIC AND AWESOME. AND AZPSADJPOASDJA EPIC & AWESOME.

Btw, am I the only one who find that Merlin saying 'friend' when speaking of Arthur sounds completely weird ?

Also, Read more... )

rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A gaywatch)
OMFG !!!!!!!!!!!



Like, they cracked me up endlessly and then, at the end : THEIR LOVE IS SO TRUE AND UNCONDITIONAL.

SERIOUSLY. Merlin and Arthur make me die a little bit each week.

Also, Arthur makes me go : ...*GLEE x INFINITY*

CUTEST. SHOW. EVER. which also brings the cracklulz.
rosengirl: (Merlin : Arthur is a drama queen)
I went home to an amazon package, babbling "let it be Merlin" over and over while I ripped it off and guess what, IT WAS OMG.

So I have now seen all the extras (haven't listened to the commentaries yet) and I have a few things to comment on :

- I'm glad we had some footage of that crazy crazy cast prior to their big break, running around in french supermarkets (to be honest, I am really hoping them to be this unknown by the french public next year, then we'll be only 5 fans over there stalking the set, yes.).

- Bradley isn't perfect afterall, he has very bad skin ! I find that discovery quite soothing for some reason, eh.

- Angel seems completely adorable, I loved the bit about her and Bradley bickering on the streets of Pierrefonds <3

- Bradley is a Buffy fan, which made his first encounter with Anthony Head a bit awkward, bless.

- Eve Myles coming on to Bradley in her old witch makeup was ftw XD

- ANTHONY HEAD NOT BEING RECOGNIZED ANYWHERE HE WENT. Right how did that work exactly ? BECAUSE THE MAN EXUDES AWESOMENESS. RIGHT IN UR FACE.

- I found Colin Morgan rather hot in these extras, wait, what ?

- Bradley has awesome spider catching skills, I was IMPRESSED.

- Boys, the practical joke was cute but it would have been more effective if your sentence had made sense in french. *pets*

- BRADLEY BEING A DORK, IN GENERAL. It looked like it was his default mode, WHICH IS NOT AT ALL ATTRACTING ME TWICE AS MORE, NO. *is doomed*
rosengirl: (Merlin : M/A Master and Manservant)
FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING IN THE UNIVERSE :

MERLIN & ARTHUR FOREVER.

OH BRADLEY, YOU PRECIOUS ADORKABLE GORGEOUS YOU.

Yes so I caught up with what I could found of Something For The Weekend with Bradley and Colin and they killed me with adorableness <333333333333


This weekend was delightfully Merlin themed and spent with my two lovelies, [livejournal.com profile] tya_rc and [livejournal.com profile] ephyse

Saturday was our epic trip to Castle Anachronism in Pierrefonds and it really is quite a bit magnificent ! I'll link to Tya's fine picspam because I'm lazy and she got the principal filming locations from the series covered. She should apparently be praised because she managed to do it with our scrutinity on her shoulders... Or something.


Three Dorks in Camelot




I put the rest of my pics and some of eph's in this gallery.

We had some troubles going there and back but they were seriously worth the effort.

We decided to accept Tya's invitation to stay at her place for the night to extend the Merlin squee with a group watching of 108 and it was, as expected made of complete win.
I don't have much to say about episode 8 mainly because I need to rewatch it to forge a definite opinion. I did like it even if it lacked some of the main things I watch the series for : Merlin/Arthur interactions and well, Arthur (Arthur'screentime this week was SO not enough, judging by me yelling 'YAH WELL GOOD BUT CAN IT BE ARTHUR TIEM NOW ?' at some point and my two fellow fangirls agreeing vigorously with that statement).
Then again I loved the darker tone and the story. It was also a great episode for the character of Morgana and I'm happy that she's getting increasingly more interesting.
Oh and I am totally shipping a new pairing now.

YES, BECAUSE THEIR TWISTED IS HOT LIKE BURING )

The clip of 109 shown during Something For The Weekend looks very promising and slashy. I'm sure it will make up for the cravings that were not meet by this week's episode.

I also converted the girls to Ashes to Ashes, from which we watched 2 episodes. It was unexpected and pleased me quite a lot, I must say. We finished the night by watching bits from old Merlin episodes and falling asleep with the telly still on, the three of us squeezed in a double bed. It was quite lulzy XD

Tya also acquainted us with the wonders of Annabelle the Sheep (I laughed til I cried) and we also read a fic together the next morning, with much giggling.

(Thank you again sweetie, for welcoming us to your lair <3)

All in all, it was a fine weekend indeed and I'm already looking forward to the next which will see me and eph going to england to see The Mighty Boosh live show in Brighton. HEEEEEEEE TEAM MB HERE WE COME.

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

To the same effect.
