Odyssey 5, anyone?
Jul. 4th, 2006 11:21 amFirst a Happy Belated Birthday to Selena - I'm so sorry I forgot about it, mate, it's one of the birthdays I really didn't want to miss but I swear my brain wasn't exactly connected yesterday so this will be my excuse, forgive me? *Dean teary eyed look* Hope you had a fantastic day *hugs*
So. Yesterday. I was one with my bed pretty much all day and marathoned Odyssey 5 til I couldn't see straight. It was so fucking hot outside that I thought I would die and I couldn't move, anyway. I spent the whole day in a perpetual state of stickiness and not the good kind.
Anyway about the show, I still have one or two discs to watch, which is great because I'm really getting into it so it means I still have some episodes to savour \o/
That show... I'm pretty sure lot of people would say it sucks - and it did have only one season but, dude, I'm loving it. I love all the characters and the way they interact with each other. My favourite is Neil. He's the youngest, he's smart, he has daddy issue and big brother issue and also he's Christopher Gorham and I love teh Gorham.
Then it becomes a tad difficult because I don't know whom I love best between Sarah or Kurt. I'm thinking I love them both the same way so let's say they're both #2. Then Angela, though she's really close to #2 - and in the daddy issue department she definitely beats Neil like whoa. And finally there's Chuck. And, okay, Chuck, I have a problem with. He's a cigar smoking, seventies glasses wearing, gum chewing, cowboy hat wearing, ain't saying John Wayne character type and I usually don't give a shit about that kind of character, ie they bore me to death and I don't want to have anything to do with them but, what can I say, the guy grew on me. And that's because of the way he behaves towards his kids - love when he let Neil cry in his arms, he so won a LOT of points in that scene - and his wife, and also the others. So he does have some redeeming qualities.
And they're awesome together; I absolutely adore the whole gang.
Also the plot... I'm still trying to decide whether the whole Sentient thing does have some logic in it but I have the feeling I'll need to watch the whole season twice before making up my mind. One thing is sure though, the continuity is a joy to see in that show. They're always referring to things that have happened in previous episodes and I just love it when writers do that.
After I've watched the series a second time I might even talk about some episodes and know what? I'll pretend I'm not the only one on my flist who even knows the show and I'll cut for spoilers and it'll make me happy :-) Though hey to be fair, I know of one person on my flist who was into it.
I also watched my very first episodes of Grey's Anatomy; twas nice. So far, I'm kinda meh on Meredith, but I already love Izzie and George. Also, when does Denny appear? Do I have to wait for season 2 or does he arrive earlier?
