Oh my God.
I just watched such_heights' vid for little Amelia(note: spoilers through the finale) and I JUST got the connection between the finale and "Vincent and the Doctor".
That connection?
" Starry Night "
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Coming to the conversation late, but I really liked "Eureka" although I'm not sure I feel about how everything will play out. I dislike Tess something fierce and am now very surprised to find myself rooting for Carter/Allison. They've built up some real chemistry over the years.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Whereas I actually like Tess and I'm a bit tired of the endless will-they-won't-they of Jack and Allison. I feel like they missed that bus, and it's a disservice to both characters to keep bringing it back around.
However Burrell, I think the showrunners are with you, so. ::shrugs::

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Due to my injuries, I ended up spending almost the entire weekend getting caught up on old Who. I finished season one and then watched all of season two. "Doomsday" (season 2 finale) broke me. I'm such a sucker for a good unrequited love story. I mean, how many people can't be with the one they love because if they were, two universes would be destroyed?

I do think it's piss-or-get-off-the-pot time when it comes to those two, and since most shows blow it big time when it comes to the lead's love life, I don't have high hopes. But trust me, I was SO happy the first time around when Allison chose Stark because they were better suited for each other. But I REALLY dislike Tess.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I really enjoyed that Who but I need to re-watch it since I was distracted with some stuff -- it felt like CRAXED amounts of handwavium.

How familiar are you with Jewish families, tommyrot?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
The Greeks may have invented drama and tragedy, but my people made sure to perfect it from allegory to daily life work. I hear it's a lot like Smallville.
Signed,
She who apparently will bring the End of Mankind if she will not marry to a Jew, give birth to 3 children and live in Israel, according to some members of her extended family. All I do in return these days is just smile kindly at them and whisper "you just pray. Maybe I'll change my mind about marriage, giving birth and ethnic separation".
Edit: I thought I was writing from the computer that marks my typos. Oops.

Yeah. Someone really should have warned me.
