Dana you totally called it!
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

OK, my father and brother really liked the Highlander movies, and faithfully watched the TV shows, so I followed along as well. I forgot this was on until around 9:30, and have only watched about a half hour.
But WOW. That was some kind of awful.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
God forbid the woman have a story beyond motherhood.
Man, I need to go read some fanfic. That hurt.
But Methos is still alive, and really, that's what matters.

This is really really bad. But I've only seen the original Highlander movie (and the series) so I can't say how it stacks up to the other movies.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
aarrgghhhh
I hate endings like that! Baby makes it all better!
So, what, are the other Immortals still alive and Immortal? What happened to Methos? Is Duncan Immortal or does he remain human?
nnngggghhghgh

Yeah, I've read LOTS of HL fanfic that was way better than that.

It's not that I can't believe it got written. A lot of crap gets written. It's not that I can't believe it got made -- a lot of crap gets made.
What I don't understand is why the original actors signed on for that. The show didn't end too terribly long ago, in the grand scheme of things. They couldn't have blown through their money this soon, could they?

Kids to put through college? I'm grateful Wingfield signed on, because it would have been unwatchable without him. Of course, I wouldn't have watched it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Okay, thank goodness you're done with your watch-n-post, because I just watched Blink on my Tivo and I had to come in here to say...
Aaaaarrrgggh! Aaaa! Aaaarhhaqqeahhaa!
Even knowing ahead of time it was going to be scary did not make it not scary. It was scary. I am scared.
Also, I am alone in the house, and there is statuary.
And! I have a photograph of an angel statue from the hospital where my grandmother died and it is invested with enough emotion already thankyewverymuch! But it is scary anyway, because the angel fills most of the frame, but all fuzzy, and the focus is actually on a close-up of a flower, which is partially out of frame. It's a gorgeous photo, really. And the angel is praying, not weeping.
I think. I had to go check.
Well, it is, but then again, I'm looking at it. So I dunno what it's doing now, all out of focus and suddenly threatening!
Okay. Done now.
But still, scared. And also I loved it. It was a great episode, and very satisfying.
And I would love to see Sally Sparrow as a companion. In fact, I would love to see Sally and Larry both on as companions, because then they could have their own love story, and they could see the world and be company for the doctor, but not all caught up in him.
Okay. Now I have to go mix, because I didn't earlier, because I was watching the Buckeyes and then Blink and then because I was scared. Will be back later if not eaten by statuary.
