You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Okay, David Tennant was born to play Mary Poppins.

Thrive to spite them

So Tennant keeps reminding me of my first serious boyfriend as Crowley. He never has before but something about his hair and his build and his sunglasses as me thinking of Chris. Who loved Neil Gaiman btw and was my intro to things like MST3K, Kate Bush, Tori Amos and Red Dwarf.

Not that Chris's hair was that long but it was fluffy and kinda curly.

I've only watched the first episode. I'm enjoying it so far. Matthew hasn't read the book so this is all new to him. It's fun to see his reaction to the story.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My first serious boyfriend looked like Charles Manson. Cheekbones for days and intense eyes. This seems like a better association.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Tenant seems to have modeled his Crowley very closely on the British rocker Jarvis Cocker (of Pulp).

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

The first episode was DELIGHTFUL. I'm trying to convince my non-binge-watching husband to watch the second episode, but he's all "We should spread it out, so we have something to look forward to!" Sheesh.

...and I got him to watch the second episode! Yay! Continues to be delightful. I like Aziraphale so much more than I ever did in the book.

Hey. New board.

We made it halfway through the second before being too tired. It is fun!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

We watched the first episode last night and it was PERFECTION.
