usedtobeljsTwo televisual notes:
1) I, the person who does not binge, has binged Good Omens 2. Non-spoilery thoughts: well, that was All the Hee! until it wasn't, there at the end of Episode 6; Tennant and Sheen, Sheen and Tennant, a team to rival some of the all-time great teams; a guest star in Episode 3 and a guest star (of a League, heh) in Episode 4 made me unreasonably happy; GIVE US SEASON THREE, FINISH THE STORY, for real for real. (Mr. Gaiman has stated that he's ready to write the concluding chapter/series as soon as the strike's over if Amazon renews the show.)
2) I have finished Series/Season 2 of Almost Paradise, which did some fun stuff; the episode titled "Uncoupled" was especially delightful, and it went to places and tropes I was NOT expecting. I continue to love Christian Kane, and the hint of a canonical relationship setting up at the end of the season made me ponder -- has CK had a real onscreen romantic relationship in the series he's worked in? (I'm not sure I would count Darla or Angel, but you might.) The OT3 of Leverage and Leverage: Redemption is subtextual, with writers and producers not quite admitting the Parker/Hardison/Eliot of it all. I can't remember The Librarians well enough, although I vaguely remember him flirting with Cassandra.
So, anyway, it's fun to see him play the kind of storyline I haven't seen him play but have imagined in fanfiction. ;)
Hugs, and good thoughts for a good start to August.
