( I got to see FlashForward last night! Spoilery, but mostly vague general stuff. )

Overall, it was solid and enjoyable and the cast is awesome and I will probably watch more. Yay!

( And THEN guess what happened at dinner after? SLASH FEN, IT IS ALL TRUE, LEUPAGUS AND I HAVE COME TO TELL YOU ALL, GCHAT CONVO STYLE )

( Doctor Who 4.13, Journey's End- also GIP, mostly Donna Noble, ILU )

Actual content in my lj! Woah!

So Mad Men came out on DVD on Tuesday. I pre-ordered it months ago, so it was a lovely surprise to find it waiting on my doorstep.

Now that I have both roommates hooked on the show, I'm taking my pimpin' to the internets. For those who don't know, Mad Men is a show centered around an advertising firm in the early 1960s.

I'm not fannish about it in the usual way, but it's brilliant and AWESOME and I want people to squee with.

SO.

Available for download at the usual sources, Mad Men can also be purchased from Amazon.com here for only $31.99 with free shipping. What a bargain! They're practically giving it away! *wink*

Current Mood: hardly working

So. I'm bored and don't want to do laundry.

But, Grey's Anatomy, right? I used to love the show. And then, somewhere in Season 2 or 3 it got more whiny and repetitive than I could take. (BLOWING UP KYLE CHANDLER = BEGINNING OF THE END)

BUT. It doesn't suck anymore, guys! I started watching it since it came back from hiatus (mostly because Entertainment Weekly told me to, and I am a sheep, a sheep when it comes to that magazine).

And guys, last Thursday's episode was AWESOME. More slashy (boykissage!) and also femslashy stuff than anything I've seen in primetime TV in a while. Thoughts:

( Does anyone still care about Grey's Anatomy spoilers? ) The short version is, I like this show again! It's also getting much gayer than usual. These two things could be related.

Current Mood: lazy
Current Location: couch
Current Music: Theme To St. Trinian's: Girls Aloud

Watching Grey's Anatomy. Hee. A character on TV with my name, which never happens, and Sandra Oh being fabulous, which happens a lot. "You know that thing where I say something, and then you say something, and then somebody cries, and there's a moment...?" Ha!! (Seriously, how much of a crush do I have on her? A big ol' honkin' one. That's right.)

It's a good show, I think. I like the writing overall, though it's a little cheesy sometimes- the reveal at the end? eh- but when has that ever deterred me from watching anything? All the characters seem well defined- and heart bypass guy, who's name I didn't catch, is friggin' adorable. We'll see. :)
