If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Although, Sara's never really been able to break out of her own Sara-world. To that extent I do think it was in character. But still a really shitty shitty thing to do.

I'm just glad that she's gone. I never liked her.

That kid was creepy.

Creese" for Crews/Reese

They went there? Why not "Cheese" for Charlie/Reese? So much better.

Also. Funnier.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Ha. I think there is an unspoken rule about how the smooshed pairing names should be first/first or last/last names?

On an unrelated note, I came across this fan-made opening credit at YouTube, which I liked a lot: [link]

I don't like this new practice of some shows doing away with opening credits. I like them, dammit. Memorable opening credits do a great job setting a mood.

As crappy as the Sara walk away ending was, I'm glad they left the door open and didn't kill her off.

Hmmm, does that mean that Journeyman is going away? I haven't watched that show since the pilot, but I gather it has since improved?

I've gotten into, speaking for one. My irritation at Dan's not doing "just talk to him already!" with his brother has grown into an appreciation for the layers of story they can tell with just 4 characters as Dan and Livia zip around in time. Last week's was interesting, with Livia showing up to save Dan's ass in the past, as Dan also was racing around to save himself AND get himself to where he needed to be to keep the time-space continuum going. Plus I want to know what's up with Livia, and why she's traveling around, too. They are heading towards Dan's seeking out answers on why he's leaping around from a PhD I think from either LBL or LLL or UC Berkeley... mem fault. Katie apparently is going back to work part time, apparently for someone else she used to date. Plus, I like the SF opening credits!

I came across this fan-made opening credit at YouTube, which I liked a lot

Ooh, I saw that a while back and liked it (there's a couple versions, I believe). I'm just really ticked that the song used "John: 2/14" by Shivaree (also played during the pool scene with the taser) isn't available on iTunes. What's this thing where I have go to a store or order online and wait for my music? Pshaw.

I do appreciate shows that have full credits (Journeyman's is just gorgeous). The cool factor of the simple one word title like "Lost" or "Surface" or "Supernatural" has somewhat lost it's appeal (although SPN makes up for it with rocking Previouslies that are sometimes fanvids in themselves).

does that mean that Journeyman is going away? I haven't watched that show since the pilot, but I gather it has since improved?

I personally think it started out rather well (the last scene in the pilot rocked) and it's been rather even ep to ep in quality when it's not simply getting more and more interesting and awesome.

edited for correct song name

PS re Journeyman, I'm not a music person/don't know the names of songs, lyrics, etc., but I LOVE the music they play when Dan goes back in time. I'm incapable of telling you what they are, but if a scene is set in the 70's, 80's, or 90', I'm all, "It's That Song! That's a great song! I haven't heard that in ages! Wow it goes really well with this segment!"

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Yeah, the use of music on Journeyman is really good.

The music on Life is good, too, though obviously not in the same way.

I'm not old enough to readily recognize the music of the seventies, or really much of the eighties, but I do love what I do recognize as dated (hullo 90's). It's fun!

god I can't sepll...
