That show you can't remember, is it Angel? The thing with Conner?

It's possible. I didn't watch much Angel; in fact, I haven't seen it since it first aired. (Although I do admit to paying slightly more attention than normal when Conner showed up. I thought Vincent Kartheiser was sort of cute.) My brain is refusing to bring up the story lines from Angel that involved memory wiping.

I have so much love for this show. SO MUCH.

"I'm going to sort things out. I'm going to work out how time got changed, I'm going to find Sarah Jane, and then I'm going to bring her back. And nothing is going to stop me!" YAY! *cheers*

I loved that part! It reminded me a bit of The Doctor in Badwolf or The Parting of Ways (don't remember which)

Yes, there's something really awesome about an enthusiastic protagonist that you want to cheer along.

I've just been really pleased with the show as a whole. I don't have to work hard to keep up my enthusiasm for it!

I need to make some icons because I'm seriously deficient in the SJA department.

Young Sarah Jane reminds me of Melanie Lynskey.

YES. And that ain't bad at all. :)

Definitely not bad! I've been watching Ms. Lynskey's career ever since Heavenly Creatures (which is, in my book, Peter Jackson's best film). Alas, it's a shame that Drive didn't go anywhere (not surprising, but I am still curious as to where the creators were looking to take the program).

Melanie Lynskey is like what would happen if genetic engineers spliced together Christina Ricca and pre-weight-loss Sara Rue. Or, to repeat my earlier comment, yum.

I first saw Heavenly Creatures on video, when I was stationed with the Marines in Japan. I suspect some of the storytelling nuances might have been lost on the guys, but they all appreciated Ms. Lynskey's scenes with Kate Winslet. :)
