Okay, hm. I wanted to marathon Fringe S5 - and ended up watching eps 101+102 of Being Human US. Someone care to explain to me how that happened? *scratches head*

I DL'd the whole S1 because I got this sudden craving to see it. I don't know why, I've never before felt any need to watch it. Well, it might have had something to do with my falling head over heels for Aidan Turner. Which lead me to DL Being Human UK. And then suddenly, I wanted to see BHUS first. Why? Because I don't like the US characters as much, I prefer the UK ones. Twisted logic, I know, but I was honestly afraid that if I watched the UK version first, I might end up not liking the US version at all. See? Logic. And since the US version goes its own way starting S2, I wanted to be able to watch both shows. Yes, my brain works mysterious ways.

I also DL'd the first season of Copper. Not that that has anything to do with BH, either version. Just thought I would mention it. Because I love Kyle Schmid. And DL'ing that made me want to watch Zerophilia again. Because of Kyle Schmid, of course. And Blood Ties. Which made me want to finally finish reading the book series. And maybe re-read the Shadow series too. Mysterious ways, see? Some of the jumps my brain makes astound even me. But maybe not this time since Kyle Schmid has a recurring part in BHUS S3. Huh.

But back to BHUS 101+102:
- not bad, though a bit cheap looking.
- I like Sally. She reminds me a lot of Claudia from W13, she has the same way of talking, a really similar voice, similar mannerism. Maybe that's why I like her so much.
- Regarding Aidan and Josh, I really hope they tone down the woe-is-me, it's slightly annoying when all they do is moan about being a vampire and a werewolf respectively.
- And yes, Mark Pellegrino's playing a creep - what else is new. Though the way he watched Aidan while Aidan fed from that half-naked girl was... quite hot in a very disturbing way O.o

So, The Hobbit. I've seen it twice now and I'm head-over-heels, totally smitten with Aidan Turner. I know that everybody and their uncle is fawning over Thorin and Richard Armitage but I'm a Kili!girl. Which made me fall hard for Aidan Turner. Which made me order S1-3 of Being Human UK on DVD (the box set cost Ł15 only). And which makes me look forward to The Mortal Instruments like whoa!

I haven't read the books yet, but I can't wait to see it. Not because of Lily Collins' Clary Fray and her issues and her love story and what not. But because of these two:



&



Because of Lena Headey as Jocelyn Fray and Aidan Turner as Luke Garroway. Not only do I love them as actors, the best thing is that spoilers from IMDB! ) The funny thing is that based on the pictures, Aidan will sport a full beard in the movie - he'll be more bearded there than as a dwarf! LOL! So yeah, I guess it'll be like with me and Twilight - there I also cared more about Carlisle than about the main romance...

The Hobbit now reached $919 mil. worldwide! It passed The Fellowship of the Rings ($869 mil.) and it will soon pass The Two Towers ($923 mil.). BO Mojo predicts it will cross $1 bil. worldwide before it runs its course. I wonder if the naysayers, haters and other obnoxious people will finally shut up about this being a flop!

Also, it looks like it will be out on DVD in April. I can't wait!!!

You know, I'm just not feeling this show. They keep telling me that there's danger looming, that these people live a terrible life - but that's all, I hear and see it, I just don't really feel it. Maybe because I feel that Aidan and Josh just don't have any chemistry together.

Like, they all have their troubles - but they try to solve them each on their own. They are not really helping each other. They don't live "together" together, they just share a house and live next to each other, like parallel lines, never crossing. I hope that the meal they shared at the end of 105 will change that. They need to connect, they need to actually SHARE their lives for this show to work. So far, that's not been happening. I hope that was intentional.

Oh, and Bishop's obsession with Aidan? Oh so creepy! O.O
