ABC picked up this pilot:
"Gothica" is a supernatural, gothic, soapy drama set in the present day but featuring many of the monsters of the 19th century. Legendary figures like Dracula, Dorian Gray, Frankenstein (not sure if it's the monster or the man), and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde all feature. This project, written by Matt Lopez, resembles "Penny Dreadful," a series ordered by Showtime. That series uses many of the same gothic characters but is set in Victorian London.

Many happy returns, Anne!

The happiest of birthdays to you, Anne!
Has anyone seen my motivation? It has completely departed. Not a shred left.
I think it's in K-Bug's room planning where to hang the posters of Jensen.
Why hold, people, why??? Do people not know which activities put the hold music on for the rest of the participants? At least it's just the start of the meeting with people getting settled and conferencing others in, since we have more phone attendees than slots in the con call. It's called
hold
music. There's your first cue. It's
not
called mute music.
Maybe, Amy, maybe.
At first I was "are you buying new furniture" and now I'm "here, take this. Take that".
Workwise, I have my deadlines for the day taken care of and have other stuff to do, but that doesn't need to be done today and I just don't wanna.
I'm still embroiled in bullshit.
But also, were we talking about some previous Mayim Bialik dress here? I think her SAG one is nice, and still pretty modest: [link]
Also, from ita's (right?) doppleganger link yesterday, I don't understand why Caroline Dhavernas was just on there as a person. She's a STAR!
Mayim looks *great* in that. When I was paging through the breakups she was listed, and the sleeves on her dress where way short (cap sleeves with slits up to the shoulder), so it seems that neckline and hemline are her big issues, not even sleeves. There's a lot of room to look marvellous there--I'm sure there are non-religiously observant actresses with more OMG-I-hate-that-about-me restrictions.
I think I'm taking this afternoon off. I have one thing I need to test after this meeting, and then donesies.
