castalieSo apparently SPN is back on my tv and I didn't know? Isn't it a little sad that I sometimes know the US!tv schedule better than I do the French one?
Anyway, yesterday was "Croatoan" and "Nightshifter". Yes. I know. Those episodes aren't supposed to follow each other. Don't ask - it'll be better for everyone's sanity.
Watching that scene in "Nightshifter" when Dean is on the phone with TheOtherCharacter - just in case it's a spoiler - I had to smile because if the US version likens Dean to Clyde and Sam to Bonnie, the French version has a different point of view. Turns out, they agree with my vision of bottom!Dean as what we got is "You never have Bonnie without Clyde" - and in this particular scene and because of the way the dialogue is done, it's clear Dean is Bonnie.
My love for bottom!Dean? Completely validated by the French dubbers \o/
Not related to SPN but still tv related. Yesterday at 7.00PM - 7.00 PM here, meaning 6.00 PM in the UK - I had a thought for the Merlin fans across the pond, because they were watching 1x04 and I had to wait. But lo! The torrent I was waiting for finally appeared this morning, so before I went out I was able to squee over the utter slashiness that was that episode; which title might as well has been The Epic Love of Arthur and Merlin. Which, ok, could just be the title of the show, period, but there you go.
Omg! If I doubted that Arthur and Merlin loved each other - I have no idea why I would have doubted but let's pretend - this episode would have done it.
Arthur was so worried about his lover that he defied his father! He risked his life to save Merlin! And Merlin, even at Death's door, was able to find the strength in himself to help and save Arthur in return! That little bubble of light he created? Was totally a little bubble of love ♥ ♥
And when Gaius announced that 'not everyone would have done that for a servant' I laughed because, of course not, Gaius, one wouldn't take all those risks for a servant... but think 'lover' instead and you'll understand why!
In conclusion, still enjoying that little show :-) Also, since I still don't have a Merlin icon yet, have my kaamelott!Arthur icon instead *points*
Back to the subject of brit!shows, what is it I hear about TPTB recasting Mitchell and Annie in Being Human? We were talking about that kind of thing at Connotations last week with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
davidbrider and I remember how against it we were. Damn, I'm so disappointed! I'll try the show once it airs and can only hope it'll work out but damn... it won't be the same thing.

So many slashy moments this week, I loved the bit where Uther asked Arthur why he cared so much in the prison cell and Arthur replied, "He saved my life and there's more..." I may have inserted, "we're sleeping together" in the pause *VBG*!

Hmm...who can I ask to make me slashy Merlin icons?
There's plenty to choose from in

Date: 2008-10-12 05:29 pm (UTC)Yeah...but I like to have icons no-one else does. But I shall look anyways cos they're so gay it's wonderful.
Last week? The look on Arthur's face when Uther takes away the flower? PRECIOUS!!

Date: 2008-10-12 05:39 pm (UTC)It doesn't say on the Beeb website but I'd say between 18 and 20 so you don't need to do any soul searching *squishes you*!

I know, he was devastated *bless him*. But then, who wouldn't be after going through all that for (what seems at the time) nothing.
no subject
Date: 2008-10-12 06:14 pm (UTC)He was so devastated because he was going to lose Merlin forever. And the love of his life would be no more!

The 'some Arthur/Merlin written in your notebook', I mean, not the 'not admitting to yourself!' lol

no subject
Date: 2008-10-12 05:35 pm (UTC)Exactly the way I love my slash sometimes lol
Oh yes, I love Derek Reese, I couldn't not have an icon of him. And I'm just reading your entry at the moment I speak and I agree about how hilarious it is.
See you in a sec in your own LJ!

Date: 2008-10-12 05:39 pm (UTC)I've been finding his old stuff on the net cos he's so young and naive and the complete of Derek Reese that it's lovely!
no subject
Date: 2008-10-12 05:43 pm (UTC)Exactly my thought. I was watching the vids and thinking of Derek and laughing my ass off more because contrast, much?

"He saved my life and there's more..." I may have inserted, "we're sleeping together" in the pause *VBG*!
Seriously, those pauses are made for us slashers! And I still think Morgana was actually telling Merlin she knew all about his affair with Arthur the last time. She just replaced 'Arthur' with 'Gwen' is all... she's messing with their heads because she just like to have fun like that!
I bet she'd love to watch!

Date: 2008-10-17 07:05 pm (UTC)It so is! Now whenever I'll be asked about those 'slashiest shows around' I'll always add Merlin to the list!
