Well, what do you know?! My guestbook dies. I don’t want to bother with it so I leave it alone. And weeks later, it magically works again. Very cool. 🙂
Is it just me or is anyone else not feeling anything for the current American Idol contestants?
Last season, I was all about Kelly — she captured me the week when she sang “Natural Woman” (I think it was the 2nd or 3rd week of the top ten part of the show) and ever since then, I’ve loved her. I got all fangirly obsessed by downloading her old demo singles and videos of her performances. But this season, there has been no one that I adore like that. Sure, I like Clay, Ruben, and Kim Locke — but none of them capture me so much that I seek out more information on them, you know? Anyway…
Yay for Buffy! And Smallville! And Gilmore Girls!
Though I have to say that I was kinda half-watching SMVL — and of course, what happens? I miss the Clark ass shot! But I think I saw enough of it in the promos, lol. Well, there’s always the rerun on Sunday. 😉
And let’s see… I’m going to attempt to use the extended entry feature here so I can talk about Buffy and Dawson’s Creek without giving anything away to the spoiler-free… be warned though, there are some DC finale spoilers…
“Empty Places” left me feeling so sad for Buffy. I still can’t believe they kicked her out of her house! By the Potentials! Gah. I kept wanting to reach into my TV and slap Kennedy. She has such a bad attitude. What do the Potentials know anyway? They haven’t been fighting nearly as long as Buffy. That whole storyline just irked me.
This little exchange between Spike and Andrew while they were riding a morocycle together is quite possible my favorite conversation EVER:
Andrew: “I bet even covert operatives eat curly fries. They’re really good.”
Spike: “Not as good as those onion blossom things.”
Andrew: “Ooh, I love those!”
Spike: “Yeah, me too.”
Andrew: “It’s an onion, and it’s a flower… I don’t understand how such a thing is possible!”
Spike: “Well see, the genius of it is you soak it in icewater for an hour so it holds its shape. Then you deep-fry it, root side up for about five minutes.”
Andrew: “Masterful.”
Spike: “Yeah. Tell anyone we had this conversation, I’ll bite you.”
Classic.
As for Dawson’s Creek, every single time I see the promo for the last 3 episodes, I want to cry! I still can’t believe they’re killing off Jen. *sniff*
They’re… killing off Jen?!?!
Argh! Knew I shouldn’t have read this! Oh, well. I probably won’t see it for ten years anyway, maybe I’ll forget that detail. 😉
Gotta agree about AI. I so not feeling it this yea, however I do continue to watch! I’m not reading the rest of your post, as I’m trying to be spiler-free. 🙂
THANK YOU, for putting your DC stuff in the extended thingy. I appreciate it. I’ll see it on Friday, and then I go back and read your thoughts!
I agree with you about the AI contestants. No one’s grabbing me. Although Clay and Kim L are starting too. At first I loved Clay, and then I got bored, but after last nights Build Me Up Buttercup, I’m hooked again. He’s just so cute and classy. Kim L has come so far as a performer, I really enjoy watching her sing. But like you, no one’s making me crazy for them … oh well.
I can’t believe they are killing off Jen too but the finale is sounding real good…I loved that you posted that Spike/Andrew conversation… they are adorable… this whole Buffy storyline does irk me too… what a stupid bunch of friends…let’s see: how many times has she saved their asses?
How are they killing off Jen??????????
*sniffs* I hate that they’re killing her too. Between that and doing what they’re doing to Dougie…I’m not very thrilled about the finale. I don’t know how anyone can be spoiler-free! Anyone that is I totally commend them, but just knowing the info is out there…it’s just too tempting for me, lmfao.
I read all the spoilers for the episode to end all episodes, even though I’m only watched through all of seasons 1-3 and almost all of s4. I absolutely HATE the doug/jack thing, but not because I anything against gay couples, but because I have read some fantastic non-slash fanfic with Doug in them. Oh well. I really cannot wait until I’m all caught up watching and can discuss the history of this fine show with all you good people.
I’m sad about Jen going, too. She’s the only one that actually deserved happiness and she’s one of the best characters on that show. *sigh*
Felt kinda sad for Buffy, too, and I hate the potentials. I’d name the most hated ones, but I haven’t bothered to learn their names. Hee. Every single one of them gets on my nerves.
