The things we do for love

Mar 30, 2005 22:35

How much of JJ Abrams' bitch am I? I'm in DC for business and I found out that my favorite singer (Jill Scott) is in concert here tonight. I was totally about to buy tickets until I remembered Lost and Alias were on. I couldn't bear to wait until Friday to watch them, so I passed up the opportunity to go to the concert. Curses, JJ! Still, it ( Read more... )

The spork made me crack up to no end. Plus wasn't there some silly challenge at SD-1 where you had to write fic with a spork in it? I think there was. Which just made me laugh harder. I'm sure my roommates thought I was going insane.

WOO for the S/V-ness of it all! Although we didn't get any "I love you"s (I think Syd was a bit incoherent for that) we got the cute phone convo at the beginning, worried!Vaughn, and then the end scene. Awwww *sniffle* I'm SO glad they showed that. I thought Syd was just going to mention the train station to torture us and then we didn't get to see it.

And that wig was God awful. Sheesh.

I was afraid of that too, especially since it was already 9:59. I momentarily forgot about the way ABC is screwing with the starting and ending times of the episodes.

Word about being a recovering spoiler ho though. I don't mind reading stuff for Alias (though I don't seek it out) but for Gilmore Girls its so damn hard not to. *pout*

Locke is probably my favorite character. I just love him, and Terry is so fantastic in the role, especially in the end tonight.

Also, it occurred to me that Marshall is the only one of the Appleseed Gang who is married. What a sad bunch this group is.

Hee! Well, no one else has interaction with anyone outside of APO, except for Dixon with his kids. They're quite the incestuous bunch.

I've been wondering the same thing about Syd's wigs. The one tonight was at least somewhat better than last week's, but nowhere near her fabulous S1 wigs. I agree, though, she looked really good at the Berlin club.

I was ready for a huge rant if we didn't get a S/V scene at the end, so I'm still giddy about that very sweet, borderline cheesy, scene. It's about time we've had one, though.

At this point, they've waited soooo long to give us a real, non-dream, present tense, to each other "I love you", I'm wondering if they're waiting for some huge epic moment, a la the "Phase One" kiss. Come on, already!

Seriously. He almost made me cry when he was saying, "I've done everything you've asked me to do." He's such a great actor.

He also apparently didn't watch Season 3, 'cause if so, he would have been tempted to remove his own eye with a spork during all of Lauren's scenes.

Hee! So, so true! Somehow I don't see Jack as a spork lover though. It's just not terribly Jack like! Both Victor & Michael were wonderful tonight, both showing emotions they don't normally.

And as I mentioned it to ITA on the wig. I really like that wacky one from the vampire or whatever the hell that bar was supposed to be. But last week, though had some brown hair creeped out it might have helped, and this one, those were a horror show.

Yeah, I really can't get over it. I find it hard to believe that anyone on set could actually think those wigs are flattering. Maybe, unbeknownst to us, Sydney covers have been women with intentionally bad hair.

Hee. Between Locke with hair, Syd's Havana wig, and Weiss' sheep dog look it was a bad hair night for the folks at VBR ( ... )

Now why did you have to bring up "The Back"? *shudders*

Because I never let an opportunity to talk about Ben's back hair slide. *g*

You're right about the Appleseed Gang. Vaughn has Syd again, and Dixon looks like he might be gettin' it awwwwn with Director Chase, but Sloane and Jack totally need to find some women, preferably ones not named Dr. Barnett.

Oh well. It was worth it just for Vaughn's "I'm gonna hurl" facial expressions during that scene.
Hee. And for "The eye is useless. Abandon the eye." I could not stop laughing.

"Have a safe trip." Yeah, okay, but, but . . . can the writers throw us long-suffering shippers a bone and toss in just one "I love you"?! And for all Sydney and Vaughn knew, that could've been their last conversation, and still nothing. Jeebus.
I know! I mean, I don't want to complain, since this episode had lots of shippy goodness, but really, was it too much to ask for them to say I love you? Also, I would've liked to have seen Jack's face when Vaughn said that. Or hell, Jack should have said he loved her, too - that's his little girl six feet under!
