Once again, The Shield continues to have me sitting there with my mouth open, scared, at what it is. How fucking good it is. How mind-fucking it is. Jesus, just the last images, and the shit they're throwing Danny's way... The last images alone make it superior beyond anything.

[quick rant : I feel the need to bring the Sentinel's directors and writers forward in time, and make them sit through last week's ep. The ep had murders, gang stuff, at least three cases going on at any one time, and a bit of interaction between Vic Mackie and the woman who runs the crisis centre. like, maximum of five minutes episode time, about one minute tops at a time. Then there's a final glance, they decide to get out of there and they're banging through the door into his motel room, her legs round his waist, snogging each others faces off. Completely and utterly believable. They also did this with Lemonhead and a girl he got involved with last series.

Sentinel doesn't even bother with the damn glances that let us know something might be up fancying each-other-wise and they have said girl spend half the episode sharing the same face time. Watch and learn, boys... Mind you, if the Sentinel was written like The Shield was, Blair and Jim would've been screwing up against the wall by mid season one. At least by the second 'touchy' episode. If nothing else, we would've seen one of them looking highly disturbed, a little angst ridden but screwing would've happened sooner or later in season one. Oh yes. And we would be happy, happy bunnies.]

Did this twice to check if it wasn't random, but so did megolas, and you come up as the same people each time. I am Shannon Elizabeth. Fear me, for my on-screen boyfriend is Jay of Kevin Smith movies. Snoogins!

A note on today

Watched one of debchan's vids, her Fastlane one, 'Baby' before heading off to driving lesson. never seen the show, it's just a damn good piece of film set to music. And then I had it stuck in my head while driving, so eventually I sang the Goblin Song to get it out of my head. Damn well works, too. Instantly. Driving instructor Andy asked what the hell did I just sing, I confessed, he burst out laughing, then I pointed out that it's not as terrible as 'It's a Small World'. Him having been to Disneyworld on his holidays recently, I asked if he'd been on the ride. He said no. I imparted to him the full horror. Including the Eskimo version. His expression was one to behold. :g: Especially after he asked why I didn't stop it. I pointed out that once you're on the ride, you can't get off. Full, real torture. But at least now I have a sure-fire way of getting any annoying song out of my head in one verse.

Oh, and reading some rather good Sentinel genfic. As in the slash is on a separate page from the genfic. Except... er... it kind of proves that it's impossible to write Jim and Blair without slash working its insiduous way in, mocking you from the sidelines. Just the dialogue!
