Vonnie, on Spooks:
I don't particularly want to post there.
Nor me: there isn't any good discussion there, it's just fic and some pretty half-assed recaps.
t is catty
I have no opinion on these other shows. I'll watch Threshold when it's no longer opposite something I have more time invested in. Even though I like both Peter Dinklage and Carla Gugino a lot.
Carla Gugino! Karen Sisco! Sigh. Man, that was a good show.
t mourns Karen Sisco and Keen Eddie and all the other cool shows lost to yesteryear
FWIW, Keen Eddie is out on DVD. I waas pissed when they cancelled that one. I thought for sure it would be a hit.
I thought for sure it would be a hit.
I think it could have been. Sure, it was wacky, but it was also a cop show, and people like those, don't they?
I'll get around to renting the dvds at some point. After I catch up with all the other stuff I have to watch, like Dead Like Me, Odyssey 5, and Jeremiah.
Odyssey 5! That's the show that's missing from my collection! Must rectify.
cereal:
I'm watching Earl. OMG. I'm related to these people.
"Incest, Yay!"
Um, ew? I usually see everything, everywhere but even I don't see that.
As Demian pointed out in his recap of Supernatural
Wait, huh? I didn't think TWOP was recapping it. *checks site* Nope, still not there. I'd love to read recaps of it, I bet they'd be a blast.
About JA being Spader-esque, I do think that it's not just that he looks like a dead ringer for him, but his acting in this role is particularly like Spader in, say, "Boston Legal" when he throws out ridiculously snarky lines with such a gleeful, nonchalant and unfazed air.
Quotes: (Dean is JA, Sam is.. the other guy)
Sam: Dean, what I said about Mom and Dad, I'm sor-
Dean: Hey, no chick flick moments.
Sam: All right... jerk.
Dean: Bitch.
-----------------
Sam: So what's the theory?
[hick cop]: Seriously? We don't know. Serial murder, Kidnapping ring...
Dean: Well, that's exactly the kinda crack police work I'd expect outta you guys.
and finally, I laughed out loud at this one:
Homeland Security Man: Can I help you, boys?
Dean: No, sir, we were just leaving.
[two large male FBI agents walk past them]
Dean: Agent Mulder. Agent Scully.
PS Earl was great but I expected as much from my beloved Jason Lee.
PPS Amy Acker appears to be guest-starring "on the coming months(!)" of Supernatural, unless my eyes are deceiving me.

Sorry, the Supernatural pilot was recapped as a one-off because of the fundraiser for Donors Choose. It's here.
he throws out ridiculously snarky lines with such a gleeful, nonchalant and unfazed air.
Yeah, that's totally it. He looks like he's embracing the toolishness of the character, which makes him a lot more entertaining to watch.
That was Amy Acker, and if she says anything about the attractive men rescuing her from the supernatural beasts, I think my head will explode.
