A Twist of Things to Come

I can't decide whether I like this or am offended by it:


more lol celebs!

On the one hand... Bowie. On the other... well, it says "totally gay" like it's a bad thing. I know that idiomatically, the phrase "totally gay" is slipping into gay = bad territory. Yet, the use here seems (to me, anyway) a bit of a thumbed nose at the idea that "totally gay" isn't also really cool. And possibly hot, depending on how you feel about the Goblin King. (Mrowr- tight pants!)

Watched the end of Being Human, and even though I knew exactly what George was doing from the moment he told the vicar it was time he grew up, I think I am definitely now a huge fan of the show, and looking forward to the next series. As micehell mentioned, they even dressed Mitchell in something not entirely hideous for the last episode. Even though he's not Guy Flanagan, I suppose he'll do. *wink*

PSA: Heroes kills brain cells. Zachary Quinto is hot, though. I may have to watch it with the volume off, or something. Oh, and shaved-headed military anti-mutant guy? Someone needs to slip him a mickey, strip him naked and take pictures of him with little boys in their underpants. I mean, if they can't kill him without strengthening his cause, I can't think of a better way to make him a complete pariah. But the writers would never do anything that interesting.

See, with some shows, you get the idea that they know where they are going, (Sarah Connor Chronicles, Battlestar Galactica) or even if they really don't, they give a decent impression that they do (Lost, BSG).

But I get the feeling that the Heroes writers have no clue whatsoever, beyond "Make Sylar creepy but sad, and make sure Claire's eyelashes never match any other hair on her body."

Eclipses that last for hours and are visible on opposite sides of the globe... I can overlook that if the characters actions make sense. ACK.

Last night I dreamed I was on vacation with the Leverage people. Someone offered Nathan a keg for Eliot. He turned it down, which upset Eliot, who had obviously misapprehended the offer due to being quite drunk. At some point, I bit him and he laughed. Then I woke up. It was surreal.
