evil energy magnates
I read this as "Evil energy magnets" for a second. Thought it was appropriate somehow, though.
The Peter and Neal (with Elizabeth!) Show is just delightful. As is the Mozzie and Anyone or Anything Else Show. Mozzie and June teaching Peter how to pick pockets was great, and then at the end Peter slipped the fake badge out of Neal's pocket without him noticing! Brilliant.
Elizabeth looked utterly fantastic in that green dress with her hair braided up, too.
One of my favorite bits was toward the end, where Neal's standing with his hands on his hips and Peter's standing with his hands in his pockets. Then they switch, and it's clear that they're back to their original roles again.
Yes, the switch in physical mannerisms was wonderful. I notice how people move, and I really saw it, particularly in the way that Peter was moving when he was walking with the bad buy. Peter's movements are controlled and small, Neal is much more open and fluid, and you could see that with the way that Peter allowed his torso to move and swung his arm when he walked.
And I have SO. MUCH. LOVE. for Peter and Elle's relationship.
OMG, Southland.
How big a badass is Lydia? Do not laugh in her face. Do not do it.
Also, I vote for her and Rodrigo.
Lydia is my favorite character in all of Southland, and that is saying something.
I like Rodrigo too, but jeez, mucho awkward.
What I like about Rodrigo is that he is absolutely the male version of his mother. Same sense of humor, sarcasm. I couldn't date him for that alone.
My goodness, that episode of White Collar was dirty.
Lydia became my fave when she went all badass protecting the witness that was staying with her back in season one. she's fabulous!
I'm rewatching WC right now, and I love that the first thing Neal does when being Peter is kiss El, and the second is put his hands on his hips. It's adorable.
Casual, feral, DeKay is great.
I love the look on Neal's face when a) he announces to the room he's an FBI agent--he looks all "Neat! It worked!" and b) Peter puts back on his ring and kisses El--he totally wants a piece of that (or some) action. Touchingly wistful.
