152 insights into my soul

TV commentary:

The Originals- Forgot to comment on this. ( spoiler cut )

Pretty Little Liars- Gross. ( spoiler cut )

The Flash- Well, at least now we know. ( spoiler cut )

The Americans- Heh, long time no see. ( spoiler cut )

Prison Break- Is this a clever ruse? ( spoiler cut )

Arrow- Heh, I'm glad they brought that up! ( spoiler cut )

Criminal Minds- Clever boy. ( spoiler cut )

The 100- Wow, talk about a culling. Also, what the shit, Clarke? ( spoiler cut )

So I was flicking through the channels and saw one of the promos for Breakout Kings. Now I knew it was by the folks who did Prison Break, and I found it odd that one of the shots was for that same prison in the first season. But then I noticed they had a couple of shots with the guy who played T-Bag escaping from a prison. Though not only is it the guy who played T-Bag, but the character is also missing a hand. Which makes me wonder if he actually is T-Bag and this is all some weird spin-off of Prison Break. Or at the very least, since its done by the same people, they try to be all clever and slip him in as a character.

Speaking of such stunts, I still think when they had David Anders on Undercovers, it would've been totally awesome if he was playing Sark.

TV commentary:

Prison Break- ah, what a hilarious and deliciously cruel cliffhanger this week. ( spoiler cut )

Dollhouse- Interesting reveals on Dollhouse. ( spoiler cut )

Had a dream last night that caused me to wake up all stressed (I hate referring dreams I have like these as nightmares, because they don't seem nightmarish) ( under the cut )

TV Commentary:

Kings- What's up with it being moved to Saturday nights? I'm guessing NBC has no confidence in the show, which sucks because it does seem pretty interesting. ( spoiler cut )

Prison Break- So this is back after the almost four month hiatus. Heh, I thought it was two new eps on Friday rather than them showing the last ep before the break at 8, then the new one at 9. ( spoiler cut )

Criminal IntentSo why did USA keep delaying this? Wasn't it supposed to come out months ago? And heh, they kept advertising Jeff Goldblum, and he's not even in the first new ep. ( spoiler cut )

Heh, so clevemire points me to the urban dictionary definition of the male lesbian, I assume to comment that I am one, particularly under the third definition of the term. And I can't fault him, because my immediate thought upon reading the example was, the various P/J scenes on DC that would fall under it. Which in turn made me think of my top 5 Pacey/Joey moments (in no particular order) of the series:

( under a cut for extreme gayness! )

Owel, TGIF! Just need to get through the work day, do laundry, and pack my bags up, and I'll be ready to go NYC.

TV commentary:

You know, after dinner last night, I almost totally forgot I still hadn't watched this past Monday's ep of Prison Break on the DVR? ( spoiler comments )

Owel, all my bags are packed, and I'm ready to go. I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. Okay, I do. Just referencing that old John Denver song. But heading into NYC in a couple of hours for Thanksgiving.

TV commentary:

( OTH )

( Chuck )

HIMYM- Oh, ha, they actually do have the 50 reasons to have sex list compiled (even though they didn't mention all 50 in the ep). ( spoiler cut )

( Heroes )

( sarah connor chronicles )

( prison break )

Things that still annoy me- people taking their sweet FA time! Its like, I'm glad they can take they're not in an effin rush, but some of us have things to do and can't waste time being delayed by their slow-ass freakin' asses! And on the road, it really pisses me off when its a friggin sporty car. You're in a effin' sporty car, there's no frickin' reason to be going 10 miles under the frakkin speed limit you frakking frak effers! What's the point fo getting a fast car then, you dumb eff?!

But now that I've vented about that when discussing Heroes with isabel79 last night, had some thoughts about the previous few eps. ( cut for spoilers )

Almost caught up on TV, there's still too much on Mondays and Tuesdays. I don't get Dexter until Monday, so there's that, then there's Gossip Girl, OTH, Chuck, Heroes, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Prison Break, HIMYM, and Samantha Who. Then Tuesdays is House, Privileged, SVU, 90210, Fringe, and NCIS. (woah, that's like 14 hours of TV, yikes!) But all I have left this week is NCIS and Samantha Who (if that was new this past Monday)

Speaking of TV commentary, what's with TWoP doing "weecaps" on some shows that are as long as the normal recaps? I mean, I understand the original idea behind the weecaps, it was for when they started doing sitcoms, and for the hour long stuff that wasn't as popular as the other shows they do. And since they're just weecaps, there's a quick turnaround time. But now they get normal recaplets, and then a weecap in a few days (as opposed to the around a week time for a recap to get put up), but they're 10-15 pages, just like a lot of the normal recaps (unless its a recap of Gossip Girl or BSG or any other show down by that Jacob guy, in which case they're frickin 30 pages!!). They used to be 7 or less! Why make the distinction if there gonna be that long and they don't come out immediately?

Actually, I wonder if that actually was the lead singer of the Spin Doctors on HIMYM last night. Its not like he's doing anything nowadays, right? And if people like the "O-face guy from Office Space" can get a paycheck making a cameo appearance on a sitcom, shouldn't the guy responsible for "Two Princes" and "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" be able to also?

And I don't get this Funny or Die video of Natalie Portman and Rashida Jones rolling around in bed with puppies because of the global economy crisis? Is it just, "Hey, here are some cuties with cute little puppies (as in actual young dogs, not a clever reference to their breastesses)!" Cute, yes, but funny? Not really!

Oh, and saw this post the other day about Dakota Fanning being a high school cheerleader nowadays. Not that she's playing a high school cheerleader in an upcoming movie, that she's an actual cheerleader at her high school. Weird! Well, one because she looks totally different nowadays (I guess because she's growing up). But two, she's effin famous! I mean, my high school crush was an actress and a cheerleader, and she was in a movie before high school, but it wasn't like it was a big role. Dakota's been in Academy Award nominated movies with such great actors as Sean Penn and Tom Cruise and Denzel Washington! Its like what happened to her? I'm reminded of that "Dakota Fanning Show" skit on SNL where Amy Poehler as Dakota Fanning gets all incensed that Abigail Breslin had gotten an Oscar nomination and she hadn't.

TV commentary:

I've tried getting into "My Own Worst Enemy", but its been failing to hold my interest.

OTH- Ah, so when Mouth left at the beginning of the season, I thought they were just trimming down the cast. But he's back. And his storyline is ridiculous. So after telling his station manager "F U, this job sucks, I'm taking a job in Omaha!" (On the air, no less!), and the Omaha job not being as great as he thought it would be (though still a better experience than Robin has on HIMYM, more on that later) particularly with Millie moving back to Tree Hill to help Brooke, he goes back to get his old job back. And he's ready to grovel to get it back, but before he can, they show that they're so desperate to have him back, he manages to talk them into a raise, a new office, and an intern.

But who ends up being his intern? Gigi! I always thought she was deceptively hot. But no longer is she the shy goody goody girl from high school, she's ditched the glasses, dresses like a naughty school girl, and is apparently a nympho bi-sexual who regrets not jumping him back in high school and wants to now. That's friggin retarded! I know, wouldn't I be all, "That's cool!"? It just does not make cents. And with the next preview having her all, "You're gf is hot!", he'll prolly end up having a threesome. Is there some writer that the character represents, whom the writer is living through vicariously? I mean, the character is played by Minkus from Boy Meets World! And besides the above girls, Brooke thought she would marry him in the future, and there was Shelley the re-virgin (played by the made cute Elisabeth Harnois of Point Pleasant fame) and hot Rachel (who coincidentally plays Stella's horny sister on last night's HIMYM). I would totally say that makes up for losing Topanga (given what happened to her) to Kevin Arnold's little brother. (Speaking of, I forgot to mention he was playing Nicole Richie's hubbie on last night's Chuck).

But I'll give people a break on OTH and rant under a cut. ( Its a cut! )

Privileged- as I said before, even though they're trying to tout Megan as the new Rory Gilmore, its eerie how much her mannerisms are actually more Lorelai Gilmore. Seriously, its like she's trying to channel a mid-20s version of Lorelai, particularly the way she talks. And are Rose and Sage supposed to be fraternal twins, or is Sage older? I guess its just the difference in sizes- Rose is kinda petite while Sage is way taller, so its hard to not think Sage is like a year older. ( spoiler cut )

So came up with a Linaria design for SC4. I think it worked out well:

( Linaria CAS formula )

Dang, I had heard the PS3 firmware update 2.5 lets you do screengrabs, which I was eggcited about so I could get pics of my designs for posterity. Alas, I thought the update from last week when I downloaded force unleashed was 2.5, but I realized that was an old update that hadn't been downloaded yet since the internet connection had been turned off ever since the GTA IV servers were down a few months ago which was interfering with the game loading up. But I had turned it back on to download the Force Unleashed demo. And it made me download the new firmware, which I thought was the latest, but I guess 2.5 is coming out eventually.

Some random comments about TV I forgot to make in my last post:

- Blair making a reference to "The Closer" was one of the weirder references I've seen on Gossip Girl. I guess its a big summer show, but still!

- Speaking of the Closer, I always find references to Provenza's crush on Brenda's mom odd. But I think this is the first time I've seen her dad realize what's up. Personally, I think Barry Corbin could kick Captain Harris' ass.
