OMG THE PANTS YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW OK MAYBE YOU DO!

I was flailing on twitter with Om the other day about this. I just... TED. NOT ROMAN. AMANDA.

And they be stealing our Dani!

AND WE BE STEALING HER BACK!

I so want to see a slo-mo rockstar walk toward the camera. Charlie, Ted, Amanda, Bobby and Tidwell. :-D

OK MAYBE YOU DO!

Hee. Yes. The reason I'm self-appointed head of the Sisterhood is because my ginormous HD TV does amazing things for the pants. It's the Pants Channel every Wednesday in my living room.

oh, sorry to confuse you. It's me --- I had to switch accounts because my Canadian icons live here.

I'm not quite half way through S2, so I confess I skimmed through a lot of this - but is it certain there won't be a third season?

I'm tempted to ask, "where's Dani?" but I guess I'll find that out for myself soon enough.

No, it's not certain, but all the entertainment journalists are reporting a slim chance of renewal. I think we won't know for sure until the up-fronts in May. (?) There's still some hope. And if it's not renewed, I think Life would be perfect for the USA network, which is NBC's younger sibling.

That's actually a great thought. It is sort of a more elegant version of the quirky character + sensible character + crime formula that makes up pretty much all of their programming.

Except the magnificent Burn Notice which is sensible character + violent, witty friends + shallow, idiot-filled city - any apparent law inforcement = great wardrobe.

That is the best description of Burn Notice I've ever seen.

Now I really want to watch Burn Notice.

Wouldn't Michael and Charlie love each other?

Damn it!

I just ... I am all verklempt.

That was an awesome episode. I want to shoot the NotRoman guy. And if this show doesn't get renewed I will be inconsolable.

Damn it.

NotRoman was so hideous and infuriating. The fact that Roman wasn't there and then the crazy laugh.

I never thought a gun and a phone could affect me so but I did and it was just... I was flailing at the gun and the expression on Charlie's face, studying it! And just... gah!

Is it wrong I kinda ship Ted and Amanda? I love them together without masks. I mean former king of the world and current queen of her world? I kinda feel like they're going to be a mix of snarky, hot and vulnerable (Ted's side).

As for the sexual tension comment... I felt that came out of the left field. I didn't even see Seever crushing on Charlie although, I do see her going 'DAMN, he's hot' once and a while then letting go because what woman, wouldn't? But I don't see the crushing or the sexual tension.

I mean, besides the obvious. Is it just that it's a woman in a bikini holding a gun? I really do think Charlie wasn't seeing the woman in a bikini. I think at that moment he wasn't 'there' for all intents and purposes. I think his mind's bouncing off from Dani missing to the case, to Dani missing again and bouncing back to the case ( ... )

I know! It was so sad and tragic looking. I don't know whether they looked worse out in the desert or on Charlie's granite countertops. The thought of Dani without her gun and phone is incredibly sad.

Ha. No! They're a really great pair, especially since he's onto her. He's no longer the puppy dog and she's no longer pretending to be girlish. Just the way she says, "Mr. Early" is fantastic.

Yeah, you're probably right. That actually does make sense to me, that he wasn't even seeing the picture; his mind was somewhere else. Thanks!

But oh noes! Roman has Dani! This is so bad, he's always been so fascinated with her! I know --- I keep flashing back to when he tormented her about her ( ... )

And I like that Ted and Amanda are kind of equal y'know? I mean, I like Olivia but I like the chemistry between Amanda and Ted more. There's some fight there, y'know?

I keep flashing back to when he tormented her about her drug problem until there were tears in her eyes. And Charlie was so mad

To date Roman remains the only criminal to really get to Dani and he KNOWS an awful lot about her and I'm sure he's gonna do a lot of headgames and *flaaaail* I sure hope Dani gets to clock him with a big bottle of something too. I mean, I know Charlie would get to kick Roman's ass but I'd also like it if Dani would too.

I cannot wait to see Roman again. How I have been missing him.

Please let there be a scene of a Friend of Charlie (FoC) visiting him in jail.

I liked sleek, cool Amanda. I love slightly crazy, gun-toting Amanda. And Seever has completely grown on me.

I know! I love Roman vs. Charlie so, so much. I'm going to link you guys to some screencaps from next week, in case you want. Hang on...
