I've read my first Black Donnellys slash this morning! Written by

poisontaster. Bless! It's Kevin/Tommy, the pairing I kinda love already, even though, yes there was only one single episode blah blah blah. If you've seen the pilot, you might understand why this is the pairing I'm going for first. Though technically I wouldn't mind some OT3 in the future which would include Jimmy, cause more fucked-up'ness is always a nice element in a pairing, right? :-)

Unrelated now. Today was a nice mail day as I received

babycakesin's parcel of goodness. Two episodes of L&O:CI and the first two episodes of S60. She's completely obsessing over the latter - which makes my interest in The Black Donnellys a bit amusing somehow. In a bad way, of course, Babycakes! Don't hit me! - and since I was curious about it I asked her. She doesn't think it's my kind of show and I kinda trust her on that one but I'm just too curious. And you never know. But it does feel like it's gonna be like The West Wing; I do recognise that it's a fantastic show, it just leaves me cold. We'll see...

But anyway, I watched L&O:CI at least - "The War at Home" and "Brother's Keeper" and my reaction goes along the lines of 'oh, Bobby!' Man, that was deliciously angsty and he broke my heart in tiny little pieces and I want more! And I'm still enamoured with Alex. So okay on the shallow side, I love the way she looks but I especially love how smart and tough and confident and sarcastic she is and how a good friend to Bobby she is too, even when he's not exactly ready to let her help him. Oh how I love that show! I can't wait for amazon to deliver the first season *makes grabby hands*

And since I'm on the subject of shows that I love even though I don't usually mention them here: so I've been watching Veronica Mars the past weeks since M6 started airing it and even though the French dubbing isn't really making me happy, I can't help but sorta, you know, falling in love with it all over again? VM is the girlfriend I never imagined going out with because she's not really my type, except she seduced me and I fell for her and we had a torrid affair for a while, just sex, nothing really more, though it was really good, and then we went our separate ways. No hard feelings, you know? But apparently when she comes back to visit, I want to sex her up again. Who would have thought?

She's completely obsessing over the latter
*points to self* un.der.sta.tement. Thanks for being willing to give it a go though *sighs*

Bobby, now: heart breaking. I can't get enough of him, seriously. Of course, the rest of the episode is awesome too, but those moments... and when he finds out that he can't pay for his mother's treatment... *melts*

I love him.

I love Alex too, of course - she's just awesome with him, she gives him his space and all... the first season is going to be awesome to watch! Oh, you should watch the first episode of the 6th season - Alex gets kidnapped by a serial killer and man, she's awesome and when you see how worried Bobby is... well, melting again, really.

All the best with Veronica *g*

I don't know why. I am kinda avoiding the Black Donnellys. I have a blind spot or something. I had it on the other night while I was surfing, but did not give it my undivided attention. I think it has something to do with it being from the guy who did Crash and how Crash stole the oscar from Brokeback Mountain. Or something like that. I guess if I hear enough squee about it, that I will catch up on DVD someday.

That fact that there's already a fandom for TBD makes me ridiculously happy. *dances*

Also, that is the best description of VM, ever. *g*
