Bah, yet another potentially great idea mangled by its creators. Just finished Camelot on Netflix, and I suppose it's a good thing it was canceled, since the show subscribes to the Torchwood/House "Let's destroy every reason viewers have to come back" theory of finale writing.
I just watched Merlyn this summer too; didn't have ready access to it ( Read more... ) -

I have been without a primary fandom for way too long now -- over a year. I'm still reading Housefic in vain hope something wonderful will appear, but that fandom has been on its deathbed since before I started Torchwood. And I have no faith that Miracle Day will revive the latter. I'm seriously craving fic that's as rich and deep and yummy as some ( Read more... ) -

Tonight was the first time in 30 years I've seen Becket but I watched it 3 or 4 times as a kid and loved it every time. Glad to see it's just as good as I remembered! The extreme slashiness didn't surprise me -- I picked up on that as a kid, even if I didn't quite realize what I was picking up on -- but early!Becket's resemblance to Avon was a ( Read more... ) -

- Fri, 21:21: The lack of a contact email for #netflix is incredibly stupid. How else are we supposed to be tell them their new WiHome design sucks eggs?

- Thu, 15:03: Why do otherwise respectable companies like #sears and #lendingtree still use spamscum like #bluefish for marketing? Where are their brains?

Anyone good at neologisms?
I need one for the not-quite-gloating feeling of knowing that the cats of someone you dislike but who has power over you like you better than they do their human -- and their human knows it.

I'm sorry, I just don't get dog people, I really don't. Unless you have at least an acre of land per dog, in which case it might be okay, why would anyone voluntarily choose to fill their lives with dog shit? These folks have a huge back yard that should be great for their kids, but it's effectively unusable because it's full of dog shit. The ( Read more... ) -

I have never, never understood mainstream American society's fondness for turning things into disasters that aren't. So people (who by definition are reasonably financially comfortable to begin with or they wouldn't be flying) have to sleep on an airport floor for a night or two. Oh boo hoo, the poor babies, such calamity. Get a grip. Get a SENSE ( Read more... ) -

Well, I didn't get the last job, which I can't entirely regret. After the interview, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have enjoyed it anyway. I have another interview tomorrow for a job I feel much better about, but this is an org that first posted the job (and that I first applied to) back in October. So they're obviously not in any hurry about hiring ( Read more... ) -

Happy (late) Halloween, everyone! I'm on extremely limited Internet access right now, so I may not be able to respond to anything. I just copied out all the post-by-email instructions, so hopefully that will allow me a little more flexibility, since I can queue email to send later, especially if it allows me to reply by email. In the meantime, I've ( Read more... )
