I agree with those who are finding the constant near-identical flashbacks a teeny bit predictable. I'd like to intersperse them with life-on-the-island eps.
Now we're saving a vampire from vampires. I got two words for that -- Nuh and uh.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)
Buddha of Suburbia
Is that from a Hanif Kureishi book? Why does that name sound so familiar to me?

Yeah. Or possibly the TV show came first, I can't recall. It's Kureshi's semiautobiographical acount of growing up in Bromley in the 1970s and fucking Billy Idol the rise of punk. It's bloody brilliant, and basically made Naveen Andrews.

Dude, I love that book. I don't know how I missed that it was also a movie, but now I know what I will be scouring my video store for this weekend...

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
It was actually a BBC mini-series, not a movie. Might be tough to track down...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

there's a new dentist in my dentist's practice that looks like Naveen Andrews... I am considering switching from my currently also-handsome, but in more of a american highschool quarterback way, dentist. Hm.
That's weird, right?

Hmm. My local video place has a lot of obscure and hard-to-find stuff (and let us take a moment to bless odd little independent video stores!), so I might luck out. Or, I wonder if I could ask them to order it? I don't really want to buy it myself, since I am (as always) wicked low on cash right now.
