Ooh, even if Justified sucked I'd watch for the music. TO is fantastic, and so is the actress who played that horrid schoolteacher in Firefly's "Safe" and some episode of Life where she screamed too much. Her overly gentle voice and delivery is fantastic coupled with her character's antagonism. "Please... do something stupid". The show knows the actors that they are working with.

Leverage Con, quick report: Cast and crew are brilliant and everyone is so NICE. Highlight of last night's cocktail party: Mark Sheppard telling me how work my friend K.'s camera (because I was drunk). "You have to hold the button down, sweetheart." Ha! Today, panel w/ the 5 Stars; they are funny and they really do like each other, aww. Sophie mini-spoiler from Gina: Apparently the crew now knows her real name, but they can't use it because Sophie's mad at Nate and doesn't want him to know. She's wearing a blank dogtag all this season, and by the end of the season, maybe she'll have a name on it. Kane related the tale of how he got the part of Eliot. Tim drives Beth crazy with twittering everything. When Tim and Gina were asked for their favorite scenes together, Tim said, the kiss, and Gina said, the part where I got to slap him. hehheh

Panel w/ the 3 Writers/Producers, also funny and like each other, how cool. No spoilers. They refused to say whether Sterling would be back, mostly to mess with Mark.

The con staff raffled off breakfast with Tim (his idea!) for 5 people, and my ticket got called, so I'm skipping around like a fool because I get to eat breakfast with Tim Hutton! Of course, I will already have been up for hours by then, because I'm going on the set tour in the morning. I will try to take pictures, if allowed.

Also, Christian Kane kissed my hand. swoon My crush is almost unmanageable now. Tomorrow night, I'm going to the Kane concert, so tomorrow is a busy day. Now, have to get ready for the banquet.

Awesome!

DUDE, TIMOTHY HUTTON! You lucky girl. Tell him I love him Nero Wolfe.

That is all incredibly awesome.

KANE! I am dying to see them someday. Not being in LA or Nashville it seems unlikely.

I'm glad it's so awesome after all the drama.

Oh, amazing!

If you get to talk to John, tell him I say hello.

Glad you are having fun!

DUDE, TIMOTHY HUTTON!

Seriously. Some people I see and it's, "Hey, you. Love your work in X, Y or Z." Him? *ZOMG ACTOR OF AWESOME AND I CANNOT LOOK OR SPEAK* As you do.

Not being in LA or Nashville it seems unlikely.

So long as Leverage stays on the air and filming in Portland, there's another place to watch them play. IJS...

Yes, I think Kane is playing at Dante's in Portland on Sundays while they're filming. They did last year, anyway. I'll find out.

Um, yes. Do that. I do have a shit ton of vacation time to figure out this year.

Um, who's in Portland? Cass, SA, Erin, anyone else? I'm not clear where Dana ended up.
