castalieOh guys I'm having the most relaxing day I've had in ages! So yesterday I decided to take today off - don't know if I've mentioned it but I'm quite tired these days? Oh yeah, a million times already. Well yesterday I thought that I didn't want to go to work today. So a day off it was. I picked today for two reasons a) I don't have classes on tuesdays so I really don't have to go out at all if I don't want to and b) noone is at home today so I'm all ALONE in the house and just - man, it's heaven.
So far I *counts on fingers* woke up at 9.30, sat in front of Clark free and happy and cruised the flist, watched the new Dexter, took a looong soak and finally caught up with the last Supernatural. After writing this I'll watch the last two episodes of Brothers & Sisters and when the download will be over I'll watch the new Heroes
All of this? Is making the Mouse a really happy camper. What also made me happy were the two eps I watched *nods*
So Dexter was brilliant as usual. It's unhealthy the amount of love I have for that show and that character - well, pretty much all the characters, really.
I'm also insanely in love with Rita. Oh, Rita, I love you a little more with each new episode! You're so fucking wonderful! I already thought you'd been awesome with Paul on the phone the last time but it was nothing compared to today. I adore how she stood up to Paul and showed him who was the boss - you go, Rita! I also adore that she was the one taking care of the Paul problem and not even Dexter.
Incidentally, I'm still madly in love with Rita/Dexter ♥ ♥ I know I should feel bad for loving that ship as much as I do the Megan/Larry ship but I can't help it! They both make me tingle! The former in a darker way than the latter maybe but I do adore them both - that much *opens arms wide*
Speaking of Rita and Dex and Paul - I quite enjoyed that scene between the two when Paul is trying to intimidate Dex. Dude, you SO don't know who you're talking to, are you? Dex barely blinking his eyes when Paul raises his fist to him had me cheer out loud. You go, Dex!
Oh hey this doesn't have a lot to do with anything but that moment when Dex takes Rita by the shoulders and goes 'there, there' made me smile because I couldn't help but think of novel!Dex in Dearly Devoted Dexter and the way he deals with people in distress.
Jeremy was back! And now he won't ever be. That scene in the interrogation room was brilliant! Loved Dexter's look when he's telling Jeremy he's empty too... A moment I found chilling was when Dexter looks at Jeremy's corpse and talks about how the kid did follow his advice after all - that he killed someone who deserved it. I don't know, it was a chilling moment, I thought... Awesome though, that's not the point.
And another awesome moment was Dexter's smile when he realises that Neil is not ICT. I might have cheered a little - even though it wouldn't have made sense if the guy had been him - because I was so happy for Dex! I mean, the guy was so sad, so disappointed to find out that his crush might have been just a pathetic loser... and he was feeling so alone and I don't like seeing him sad! Well, no, I do, Dex angsts beautifully but you know what I mean :-)
And now onto SPN. I don't have a lot to say even though I did enjoy the ep, make no mistake. I did find some things were a little... I don't know, OTT maybe? As if they were beating us over the head with the idea of Sam and Dean being connected and though I liked how they thought the same way and all I just had the impression it seemed a little forced maybe. I mean, I already know how connected those two are and how well they work together. Guess what? That's how I got addicted to the show, the whole Winchesters Duo thing. But I suppose Nice for a Cop Lady needed to get it and since she never watched the first season...
But hey it was a lot of fun seeing them work together even though they were separated so I can't say it bothered me that much, granted :-) Oh and another thing that was a lot of fun was the little montage at the beginning with the gazillion identities the guys took throughout the first season. I have to say SPN has the best 'previously on' ever!
Also between you and me, any episode that gives me a) Dean being manhandled and then pinned against the wall and then b) Dean kneeling in front of another can't be a bad episode in my world *has naughty thoughts about those scenes*
Dean was pretty as usual and such a smartass that it's a miracle he didn't got a public spanking - not that I, you know, dig that kind of thing *cough* Also I won't ever get tired of the gazillion refs to media the guy is doing. I also found pretty amusing the very last scene with Dean going 'doesn't she look familiar to you' and then the pea soup line. The guys cracks me up!
Oh and I'm still enjoying Sam a lot this season. Just thought it was worth mentioning it. Though if they decided to cut his hair it would make me much happier but I guess that's between me and er my haircut issues?
Something else. See, so far I've gone into each new episode of SPN completely spoiler-free, ie I don't know the title of the ep, I don't know even one little detail of the summary and it's been awesome getting into the episodes ignorant of everything. But as it happens, when I was searching for a line for "The Usual Suspects" I found myself face to face with the summary of next week's episode and I have a question - OMG DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN DOWNLOAD THE TRAILER? I mean, yeah, please? THANK YOU!
In conclusion, if you're having as good a day as I'm having, we're all sending very good vibes to the world today :-)
PS: Paid users can get a week of additional paid time to compensate the outage of last week. You just need to activate it.

Date: 2006-11-14 01:22 pm (UTC)going spoiler-free is so good! and you're right, last week's ep was a good filler ep, but it didn't really move the main plot along. i must say i didn't like Nice Cop Lady though, don't know why - i suppose she was in a pea soup commercial at one point, right? lol. did you also think the creature-of-the-week was scarier than usual? i watched the ep while at SAM's friday night, and we were both clutching each other and starting and skrieching all the way through. i thought of how you said you needed someone to squee with during Heroes - with SPN you need someone to hide behind! lol
i'm ashamed to say i'm falling behind on Dexter though - three eps behind! i've DLed them but did find the right time to watch them. soon though, i'm sure.
man, i need more SPN icons! lol

Watching SPN with someone might be the way to go lol
