(It is a well-known fact amongst my close relatives that I don't give half a shit about fashion, but I will bitch at length about ties and dress shirts and the many atrocious ways in which they're matched. DO NOT WATCH THE NEWS WITH ME.)
Gasp! He is TOTALLY pulling off pinstripes with checkers! What are you talking about?!
(Haha, my sister and I are completely the same. We are at it all the time but we dress awfully. At least, I do. Yet I have a hunger for couture fashion and crazy runways I don't know.)
Yes. He's all, okay, you can have my autograph, but let's go have a drink so that I can learn more about you as a person omg.
IT TOTALLY DOES. Anyway, CHRIS MELONI. So, whatever. [lolz.]
(Hair, shoes, make-up disasters...pregnancy wear on women who are obviously not pregnant - and really, whhhhyyyy?)
It does make sense and me neither but I like that about him because he's pretty chill. And he works with Mariska Hargitay on what is basically one of the best shows ever in one of the best franchises ever. (&hearts L&O)
I now have horrid flashbacks to s2 CSI:NY wherein everyone wore checkers in an atrocious manner.
I cannot watch SVU. I'm not in the least squeamish, but that show freaks me out. Also, it has the same problem all the L&Os have: if you miss the first forty seconds, you might as well not watch it at all because you're never going to find out what's going on.
I love L&O. I love, love, love it. So well written, so well acted, consistently good plots - consistent plots and consistent characterisation. (This franchise has my three favourite shows ever and yet I never get to see them. *sadface*)
Some SGA-oriented parts of my f'list are now converting to CSI:NY and it kills me because apparently, I am still bitter about this show. (Plus they're all shipping such things as Mac/Danny and Mac/Flack, which, yick?)
Oh, there's no doubt about it being good, great, awesome. CI = hearts.
You should come back to the dark side. It'll never be as bad as Miami. UGH. (Hmm, I don't read those ships but yick isn't how I'd characterise it. Then again, neither is 'hot!!!')
(Mac/Danny is yick for me because of the whole power balance and the mentor/father-figure thing. Flack/Mac less so, but that's still a little weird. Possibly I just don't want to think about Mac in any romantic context. I watched an episode a few weeks ago and while it didn't fill me with rage, the case was SO RIDICULOUS OMG. But I still love the characters to some extent.)
I haven't seen CI in AGES, but Goren, oh Goren. Poor wounded puppy. Also?In addition? I have a little thing for Chris Noth.)
(OK, that makes sense. I have recently developed an intellectual crush on Gary Sinise for no apparent reason. I'm trying to wash it off. And NY actually fills me with real actual joy at random intervals which is so weird because I'm so snobby about my TV.)
Goren! Alex is also fairly kick ass when I consider her, but Goren has this tactile sensitivity that I have never been able to get over. Chris Noth = ftfw.
(I have this thing about power dynamics and shipping. Which is why Sam/Jack on SG-1 is somewhat squicky to me. See also: Hotch/Reid, House/Cameron, and the list goes one. Actually the only thing saving McKay/Sheppard in this respect is Rodney's utter disregard for authority.)
Curiously, Alex has never grown on me. You'd think she would. I'm crazy about Goren's speech pattern. (Which I'm now realising might be a key factor in my falling in love with a character: interesting/unusual speech patterns.)
(The gap between your entries and your comment replybox makes me want to go into lengthy CSS things. What I mean to say is, I had the same problem with a layout I did for powerof3, and I could probably help you fix it if needed?)
Okay, SG-1 finished downloading, so watching that, or part of it, now.
(I... don't? Or I don't always consider it. And when I do, it's not a bad thing. But hey, this time last year my big literary obsession was the idea of the Lolitaesque girlchildwoman so I'm not a good judge with this stuff.) (I don't like any of those pairings. NO! I lie! Sam/Jack. Or more specifically Sam/Jack angst from S2-6. I have no idea why that timeframe is so specific.) (Now there's a fandom full of batshit.)
I love Alex. I love her and Goren as a team. They have a fascinating (non-shippy) relationship. She surprises me at surprising intervals (heh) and I think she's good for Bobby. And oh, Bobby's mannerisms, his entire way of presenting himself, of articulating himself - I die happy.
Enjoy! I'm going to sleep, what with the hour being twelve. Almost. Talk tomorrow x
OMG I AGREE! He DOES pull off pinstripes and checkers! He's just so damn impressive. And where'd you hear that he says stuff like "okay, you can have my autograph, but let's go have a drink so I can learn more about you as a person"? Cause dude, that's so incredible. I hadn't heard that, but I love him (and you!) even more now! Dude I participated in the live blob he did a couple weeks ago at nbc.com, and at the end he was like, "come over with danishes tomorrow and we can chat more about the episode just kidding!" Dude, I would so be there.
