So, Journeyman. I find I just don't care.
Niska: Mr. Reynolds? You died, Mr. Reynolds. Mal: Seemed like the thing to do.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Actually, I'm finding it watchable. The cast is pretty and it's set in SF so I can play "I know where that is!".

I'm afraid I can't find that actor interesting unless he's killing werewolves or making out with James Purefoy.

Art Crawl!!!
Chuck was alot of fun.
I'm enjoying Journeyman and uh - who was that playing Trevor? He looked so almost recognizable and it's good to see that Gabriel Tigerman has a role that should surely be recurring.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Chuck was fun. Things blew up. I like the Casey/Chuck/Sarah dynamic. I still find Morgan a waste of space.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Barrowman's "American" accent still sounds fake to me and that bugs.
Oh dear! But...he is American, isn't he? I mean, born here, sure, but raised and educated in the States, right? But mind you, I find that I become more British than British sometimes when I'm surrounded by non-Brits. (Although it can go the other way too, and one can just pick up other accents and then it sounds like you're taking the piss!)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was told that the accent Gabrielle Anwar used in the pilot of Burn Notice was her real accent, but I'm damned grateful she dropped it. I couldn't not think leprechaun. She sounded awful!
But who am I to judge?
I can't even remember if Barrowman would have sounded fine to me when I lived in the UK. Probably, though. His speech has an I-can't-put-my-finger-on-it quality to it, include clear projection, but it doesn't sound too alien.
So to speak.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Well at least Barrowman's American accent is better than the horrors put on for Jeeves & Wooster.

"Would you mind not farting while I'm saving the world?" - Doctor Who
So, Journeyman. I find I just don't care.
I'm not sold on it yet. It's "Quantum Leap" minus the humorous body swapping.
Chuck is mindless fun. I like that his memory is triggered by visual stimuli. It keeps him close to the action.
Heroes looks to be another winning season. I like that Hiro is caught up in the life of Kensai. It would appear that the legends Hiro grew up with are a composite of the two. My other favorite moment: Claire's toe.

machall, you can find more Heroes talk in the Heroes thread.
I like that his memory is triggered by visual stimuli. It keeps him close to the action.
It also appears to be triggered by auditory stimuli. Which is odd because he didn't recognize the evil doctor's name, but he recognized his face, but when Casey was telling him about the French diplomats, just that story triggered a memory.
