I have to say I don't get any of the Dohring fannishness at all. But I say this as a non-VM fan (in that I've never watched it, not that I watched and don't like).
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

i'm not sure Dohring will ever find a role that fit him as perfectly as Logan did. i enjoy watching him as Josef, but if i could have him as Logan for one episode versus five seasons of Josef on Moonlight, i'd take it.

Compassionately intolerant
I rewatched the latest Moonlight and liked it a bit better the second time. What I would love for them to realize though is that 'sexy vampire jumpy thing' not really so sexy in practice. If they just assumed the flying, ala Angel, it would be so much cooler.
And I agree that Dohring looks way, way cree pee-er in vamp make up than the others. I can see him being all method and begging the makeup team for more!morerot!
eta: They aren't doing so well with guest stars, sadly. Eduardo Bellerini (the plastic quack) was so loathe worthy in Romeo Must Die but in this role, he was just squinty. Too bad.

Point of clarification, please.... this Logan character of which you speak -- since Juliebird used the "VM" reference, are you referring to Veronica Mars, maybe? I never watched that show.
I just like Josef's sense of humor. He seems to have fun whilst being a vampire, rather than brooding about it.

Yep.
You guys, remember the hilarious "BSG in 8 Minutes" recap video? The same people are recapping each episode!! Frakking hilarious.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
He was splendid in VM. Man, I adored Season 1 of VM beyond all power to express it. Cracking cast. Some splendid writing and awesome twisty turny things. Season 2 I also enjoyed, although not as much as Season 1. Season 3...I've not seen yet. Um.
But, man, JD did some excellent work on that show. (Yes, yes, okay, roundhouse kicks to Fay's kinks, blah blah blah - dear lord, Logan was the woobiest woobie that ever woobed.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Logan was the woobiest woobie that ever woobed.
I do love a good psychotic jackass.
S3 of VM is pretty much "ptui! let us not speak of it again" for me. Roundhouse kicks to my anger buttons, so to speak.
I don't watch Moonlight, but what little I've seen has not impressed in in terms of JD. The turning bit was hot, I will give you that.
Are we talking "Being Human" in here? Anybody else read the pilot recap with screencaps on LJ? I heard it's been picked up (I may have heard that here, can't remember).

Got this in my internal press email this morning:
BBC today announced that for the first time BBC AMERICA programming will be available for purchase and download from the iTunes Store in the U.S. (www.itunes.com).
Yay!
