rosengirl: (AWZ : thank you Male Function)
So I did want to update for several days about my beloved shows's (sometimes spectacular) comeback but I'm in a fierce procrastinating mood.

Mood definitely not helped by the fact in the last week or so, [livejournal.com profile] fairy_bliss and I have fallen for *yet* another gay pairing in a soap.

It's a german one called Alles Was Zählt (All That Matters) and just like ATWT their gay boys have issues and angst a lot. There's also figure skating involved which is clearly of the Win.

Here, have a gorgeous songvid which has about everything I love love love about these two.




If you want to get to know them better, my lovely [livejournal.com profile] fairy_bliss did a fantastic pimping post HERE.

I'm already almost caught up with their story and it's not even been two weeks, eh. Soaps are addictive.


I was also mostly pleased with the double dose of Nuke this week. You can never have too much Nuke (I hope we'll get them twice next week as well *fingers crossed*).
Mind you not all of it was satisfying but I dig their SL and we had Noah being incredibly sweet and adorable (with awesome hair *g*) on tuesday and a 51st kiss on friday, they couldn't manage to have it all both at the same time but hey, that's the limit of those writers for you.
Next week does look like we're back to the Epic Angst again and while I can't wait because I'm still not used to have to *wait* for nuke parts, I'm a bit anxious too. I think Dr Reid is presh so far and I'm curious to see where it goes with Luke (and hoping that Noah will finally stop taking Luke for granted anf get jealous a bit).

As for proper telly, overall I'm also very satisfied with post hiatus episodes so far. In shortness :

Dollhouse is just jawdroppingly brilliant. Some episodes from the second half of the current season are some of the best work Whedon has ever done. That may be the most unfair and saddest cancellation ever. I am dead excited by the finale episode and hope that the ending will be satisfying enough to get over the bitterness.

Chuck season 3 is rocking my socks off ! I can't wait for some things to happen and some characters to return but all in all it's good fun with an underlying sense that all could and probably will go wrong very very fast. I love it.

Being Human series 2 is also doing it for me so far. I liked the premiere but 102 was just heatbreaking and awesome. I really like each character's storyline and the creepiness of the general series arc.

House is. Yeah. You know which scene. *grins stupidly at House and Wilson*

White Collar delivered perfectly ! I am still madly in love with Neal, Peter and Elizabeth but mostly, Neal rocked the episode with his mad skills of UNFNESS.

Legend of the Seeker, well. I kinda want to say Richard who (although his abs of steel & doe eyes would be missed) ? BECAUSE I AM BLINDED BY KAHLAN AND CARA'S FIERCENESS AND THEIR EPIC LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER.


EPIC CHICKS KICKING ASSES AND TAKING NAMES
(that was seriously one of the best fights they ever did in this show *g*)



Which reminds me that I'm off to watch last night's Seekah ♥

So I once again hopped back to England (Nottingham this time) with my fellow [livejournal.com profile] fairy_bliss and [livejournal.com profile] ephyse this weekend to see Simon Amstell's stand-up show, Do Nothing.

Let's just say that it was completely worth the effort because it was probably one of the funniest stand-up shows I've seen and it totally lived up to my humongous expectations.

We didn't quite know what to expect since we've only seen him on Buzzcocks and not much leaked about his tour. I suspected snark and edginess and we got both of course, and I knew that he talked about his love life but I never would have imagined that the whole stand-up would be this personal. From a guy usually so private, he was quite upfront about his insecurities and his awkwardness. It made the whole thing feel more special in a way, like overhearing something we weren't supposed to.

some bit and pieces I loved best )

The tale of the stage door )

In short, it was FOR THE WIN.
I'm a bit sad that with this little trip ended my last planned trip to the UK. I hate not knowing when I'll be able to go back.

I have tons of tv shows to review and I especially need to share my glee about White Collar's latest episode (and the show in general because it rocks my universe) but I'll keep this for the next post.

I just have to finish with some pimpage :

The Waters of Mars new trailer ! I CANNOT WAIT. It looks so dark and gloomy and I wasn't that excited about it before (compared to the regen specials) but the bits and pieces I read about it really got me excited now. D-11 !

The talented [livejournal.com profile] talitha78 made one of the first White Collar fanvid of the fandom and I've watched it so many times already ! (seriously people if you're not watching this show then watch the vid and then get on with it ! Why are you not watching ? WATCH. IT.)

Rockstar

In other news I'm gutted that David Tennant landed an american pilot (selfish and irational, I know) and I wish english people would stop fleeing the coutry (Russell Brand I shake my fist at you).

I'm however fucking overjoyed that he will be hosting this year's Buzzcocks Xmas special and that Catherine Tate and Bernard Cribbins will be guesting OMG ! My brain will probably explode if David and Noel get snarky with each other and I may never recover.

I'm also reminded that christmas now means : David Tennant in Buzzcocks, David Tennant in QI, David Tennant in Hamlet and David Tennant in Doctor Who.
DOES HE WANT TO KILL US ?

Also, I can never be tired of Richard in my post's moodtheme. Look at him ! He is so speshul and precious.

I can't believe I've actually opened semagic to write it lol.

So I won't go into too many details but let's just say that we were lucky and on a roll !

Epic adventures of fannish Epicness are Epic )


I'm going back to the UK this weekend (Nottingham) to see SIMON AMSTELL !! I AM SO EXCITED I CAN BARELY CONTROL MY SQUEE. Oh. My. God. It better be fucking epic !


In other news I had my fastest addiction to a new show + fandom ever with the pilot episode of White Collar *points to icon*

It's sassy, shiny, classy and UBER SLASHY.

I'm already dying of the wait for 102 and have read pretty much every slash fics produced in the (already impressively active) fandom.

Oh and also today's SJA Killed. Me. OF AWESOME !! (re : the next tweet batch).
