So, I'm watching this totally fluffy movie on ABC family with Emma Caulfield and Bradley Cooper, because, you know, Emma Caulfield and Brad Cooper, and I come across a commercial for a sitcom called "Celeste in the City". And appearing in it is Nick Brendon as some kind of gay make-over artist. And he's a member of... a sort of posse of Queer Eye wanna-bes on acid. Does anyone know about this?
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Another social casualty...
Hee. It's not a sitcom. It's made-for-TV movie by ABC Family, who seems to have somehow discovered that former BtVS actors are very talented and need work. (They also made See Jane Date with CC last fall.)
Anyway, from what I've heard, NB is playing a gay guy who helps his female cousin with a makeover. I'm not sure what her objective is, other than to be the best her she can be. There's probably a cute guy involved somewhere.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I wish I knew what happened to my late brother's pistol-back competition epeés...
Sigh.

You swordy type people know, don't you, that the History Channel is starting a four part series on "barbarians" tonight. Tonight is Vikings and Goths - promises to have lots of swords and gore. The next two parts are on the Huns and the Mongols.

A sane person would wonder why they still do this stuff.
Do we have any of those?

I have a plan.

Caught a bit of it last night, co-watching with Stargate. Thought that what I saw was really good and definitely worth watching, need to pay closer attention when they rebroadcast the show and the rest.

You mean that show that now has a tape of its very own? National Geographic's "Secrets of the Viking Warriors" was better. All four eps were broadcast last night, and Hubby and I started heckling the people they were using in the reinactments. Some of the fight scenes were fairly bad, with fatal sword blows not coming anywhere near bodies. At one moment, I said, "Oh, for heaven sakes--look at that guy! That's a 12th century chaperon he's wearing, and he's supposed to be a 9th century Goth!" Hubby replied with, "Well, what can you expect? Look at the helmets, they're all over the map, geographically and timewise." Me: "I know, wasn't that a barbut on that one guy? Those came in, when, 1300s somewhere?"
And we stared at each other and started to giggle. Then we began critiquing the choices of color for the costumes, then Hubby pointed out this one female extra who takes an arrow to the chest in every single "Barbarians sack the helpless town" scene. "Hey, look, there she is! She survived--no, wait, there she goes." Hubby: "Stupid woman, you'd think she'd learn to duck by now."

Hee. Having an armourcritique: ON!brain like that makes it hard to enjoy "historical" Hollywood movies like Braveheart, 13th Warrior, First Knight, etc., or at least, enjoy them in the matter they were intended. Rolling on the floor at the terrible armour/costuming choices can be fun, but the immersion factor? NSM. Movies like A Knight's Tale that make bad choices intentionally are even more annoying (speaking just for me) considering the stuff they get just right, like the brilliant jousting reports on campaign.

And how did you feel about Monty Pythonic efforts?
