My weekend? Was all kinds of awesome. I just love having people staying at Teh Flat; and when those people are one [livejournal.com profile] babycakesin, well, it just triples the fun :-)

Friday night was a double bday celebration at tbf!Sandra's - hers and my sister's - as per tradition so that's where we spent the evening/night. When we got home she looked at my DVDs - as she's wont to do - and decided to give Dead Like Me a try.

It was a success. So, on Saturday, we mainlined all of season 1. I realised it'd been some time since I mainlined a complete season. Plus, I'd bought the box set some time ago but hadn't got round to watch it all, so I guess it was overdue.

Dead Like Me is such an fantastic show! Bryan Fuller is a genius, really. I mean, one has to be to create shows like Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies. I'm always completely enchanted with his stories. And his characters.

I adore those shows that make me fall in love with not one, not two but all the main characters - and maybe one or two secondary too. And that's exactly how it is with DLM. I love them all. George and Mason and Rube and Roxy - boy, do I love Roxy! I guess I love Roxy as much as I love Mason... and I even care about Daisy - she looks so proper and prissy and then she'll be telling you all about that time when she blew so and so; it cracks me up. That and her cons. And let's not forget Reggie or Joy.

I mean, after a while I even started to love Delores. No kidding, I was even missing her a lot when we didn't see her for a while. She just - she's lame and has all those lame habits and quirks, but at the same time she genuinely cares for people and she's always there to help you if she considers you a friend and there's nothing better than this. You go, Delores!

Mainlining Dead Like Me wasn't all we did on Saturday, though. Late afternoon, we went to the cinema to see Bienvenue Chez les Ch'ti - first time for me, second time for Babycakes. Hence my subject in ch'ti, btw. Aw, it was great! It's a very cute and funny film with endearing and touching characters and I loved it to pieces. I'm really glad it's doing so well.

As for today, well, we actually kept with the Bryan Fuller theme since we watched six episodes of Wonderfalls. I guess we just needed one more little Bryan Fuller fix :-)

PS: I have no Dead Like Me icons, so I'm using that one instead because it's pretty appropriate.
