"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Not even directorial intent? Because, dude.

there were tears. that's some intent right there. I mean, maybe they were trying to show the magnitude of the choice that Neal was making, but they didn't have to go with tears.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No, but I did get a hint of Bodyguard. I'm a little ashamed of it, though.

I'm glad I'm not the only one.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Hey, I didn't say I agreed with him! I don't even watch the show (though I am definitely going to start) and I can tell they're in lurve.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm skeptical about there not being authorial intent. I think SGA is about as far as you can push slash without the writers being in on it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Gay like hobbits. Heh.

I'm right there with Perkins on the OT3. I never would have thought I'd be loving a Tiffani Theissen character! But I am!

Trust my rage

I never would have thought I'd be loving a Tiffani Theissen character! But I am!

I know. She and Brian Austin Green have really...surprised me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm reading the Guardian UK blog covering Mad Man's S3 as it plays there and they just got to the episode where Pete has sex with the au pair (and Don and Betty are in Rome).

And it's funny how Pete's behavior is seen in a different culture, because over here everybody seemed to see it as very clearly rape, over there it's reading as "not quite consensual."

Whereas in Pete's era it was merely a breach of neighborly etiquette.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't think it's possible these days for producers not to be aware of homoerotic readings of the text.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had hopes for Brian Austin Green because David was my favourite 90210 character (he *way* exceeded them). But TT? I never saw that one coming. I was just hoping for minimal negative impact. But she's been great. She's made the most of every moment of her screentime.

eta: I still think Aragorn and Legolas were gayer than the hobbits. Which is saying a lot, but rilly.
