And we move on to Miracles.

[castalie]

I'm on a cancelled show kick these days, flist. And I'm so enjoying it too. Apart from the finales of those shows, which are hell, of course. But it comes with the territory so I try to brace myself and be brave and all. Doesn't always work that well but whatever *shrug*

So this time I've been marathoning Miracles - courtesy of the lovely Rhianne.

See, Odyssey 5, I loved, but the fact that it got cancelled - well, I could see it and I accept it and all that. But Miracles; oh Miracles, I'm really mourning its disappearance because it's so the kind of show that I adore. Give me religions, ghosts and poltergeists and psychics and reincarnation and miracles and I'm gone! Then give me interesting and loveable characters and I just never want to come back.

It's a show that definitely made me feel a lot; I cried at the end of the pilot, then at the end of the second episode, then maybe at the end of the third and, well, I kinda cried for several other scenes throughout the whole series.

Oh and among the many things I love about Paul is how he seems incapable of going through a single episode without receiving a head injury. That so delights me. No, seriously, you could make a drinking game out of this; each time Paul gets whacked, you drink one. Beware though that you wouldn't finish the game sober. Far from it.

Also for the record, if I do finish my new SPN fic, Paul will totally make a guest appearance, even if by name only *makes promise to self* I'll see whether I want to imply Alva/Paul too, btw...

I haven't been feeling that well today so tomorrow I'll take it easy - before the Big Moment, ie the Big Football Match, YAY \o/ - and I think I'll rewatch the whole season. I need to bask in the weirdness that is Miracles; its different solved mysteries and its - sadly - unresolved arc. Then I'll watch the pilot of Psych, which download is still crawling. Going from Miracles to Psych should be quite the experience ;-)

Then Doctor Who - dude, it's a good thing I never meant to go into the series spoiler free because it's apparently an impossible mission *blink* - and then, on Monday, The 4400 heee! It'll be a great tv weekend *nods*

When even the Beeb spoils you, it is Mission Impossible indeed... (Hasn't happened to me, but I read about it. It so happened that I spoiled myself voluntarily because I already guessed it and it's better to *know* when you already have a nagging suspicion, you know? But yeah, it's one of the most officially spoiler-laden fandoms. O_o)

The 4400 is really kicking ass this season, isn't it?

[castalie.livejournal.com]

It's just weird to see a fandom where spoilers are, I don't know, canon? I mean, part of it and all. It only annoys me on principle, as I never intended to be spoiler free for it but it's a good thing DW isn't SPN.

Let's also hope I just didn't jinx myself and that my flist will keep their spoilers safely hidden behind a cut til the season premiere *fingers crossed*

The 4400 seriously kicks ass this season *loves*

I've only seen one ep of Miracles, but oh yes, the potential. Such a shame it didn't last the distance.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

It did have so much potential... alas, it wasn't meant to be *sigh*

[admiralandrea.livejournal.com]

And good luck to France on doing the double, after Amelie Mauresmo did so wonderfully yesterday.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Well, turns out Amélie was our only success this weekend - but it was one great victory *nods*

[admiralandrea.livejournal.com]

Yes, how annoying of Italy to win their first ever penalty shoot-out right then...

I was a bit shocked to hear about Zidane, though.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, apparently he had one too many racist slur thrown at him... I don't know *sigh*

Oh and among the many things I love about Paul is how he seems incapable of going through a single episode without receiving a head injury.

Heeeee! Doesn't he just! *eg* Unsurprisingly, that's one of the things that drew me to the show in the first place, he must be the unluckiest TV character in history!

It's such a shame that Miracles got cancelled, I loved it when it was on. Though I have to say, I think there'd be a terrific crossover with SPN...all the kids with special abilities, the 'darkness' coming, and all the things with Tommy? How easy would that be to fit into the demon from SPN and all the plans he has for his kids? Oh yes.... *eg*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Lol Why am I not surprised Paul's Multiple Head Injuries was one of the thigs that drew you to the show? ;-) But seriously it was a thing of beauty all those scenes. Poor little woobie! *pets him*

Miracles does make a lovely crossover with SPN, that's for sure *nods*

[rhianne.livejournal.com]

*sniggers* You know me too well...

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Lol I do, don't I? *eg*

[rhianne.livejournal.com]

LOL! Definitely... and OMG! look at that icon *melts in puddle of drool* I love that scene more than I can express...though I was with another friend who is an SPN fan, and when we watched that scene I just cracked up laughing (having been reading through LJ I now can't watch it without thinking of the slashers (myself included) who expected Demon!John to kiss Dean or something, and I refuse to believe that it wasn't deliberately shot with that in mind...) and she was absolutely scandalised that I was sniggering at such an emotive scene...until I explained why. *eg* Then she had to bleach her brain to get rid of the images... *cackles*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I've fallen in love with that scene as soon as it appeared on screen; I actually had to rewind it a few times because God it was just too good to be true, you know? Right after that I looked for the perfect icon and found several and, yeah, that icon - I have MUCHO love for it :-)

I tried to avoid spoilers for Doctor Who when I started watching it, but I gave up after about a week, it was giving me anxiety attacks and I had to stop reading quite a few of my friends' journals. :P

And then I apologised to everyone on my flist for when I sat and raved about Lost or something on my LJ when there were people who were trying to remain spoiler-free.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I never even tried to be spoiler free for DW when I realised it just wasn't doable. I never really wanted to be spoiler free for that show, anyway, so it's okay but it's quite annoying on principle *shrug*

[ninkasa.livejournal.com]

Oh! Also, Psych was like the uber!cute. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

It was über!cute, wasn't it? And pretty good too - a delightful surprise, yes *nods*
