Pimps-n-Hoes-n-Stuff

1. [livejournal.com profile] serialkarma told me there were OC Awards happening, which I did not know -- but now that I have gone and nominated people I feel better. Nominate LJ shit, people, or else [livejournal.com profile] lalejandra will break your kneecaps. Whomever nominated Ryan Gosling Jamie and a OC drug dealer Rex, you crack my shit up, and thanks to whomever liked Telegraph Ave enough to give it a nod.

2. Also, what the fucking fuck?

2a. Less Sark?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *sporks*

2b. [livejournal.com profile] serialkarma, it looks like JJ agrees with you about Alias being best when SD-6 was around. Maybe they’ll recreate it? Yis?


3. Anybody else out there looking forward to seeing HBO’s Entourage? I am!

4. I was flipping channels yesterday and randomly stopped on Six Feet Under. I’m not a fan, but there’s nothing quite like being in a separate room and hearing somebody’s aghast voice screeching “You’ve never rubbed one out?!.” For two whole seconds I thought she meant whacking someone and then I realized that, no, she meant the other rub one out. I’m going to have to write wank!fic for somebody, prolly Neville. Maybe Clark. Who knows. Thoughts?

Okay, that almost makes up for the less Sark issue. (Although, I kind of agree that Sark fits into the show better as a recurring character. Really, they should just give Sark his own show. There aren't enough shows with unrepentant amoral lead characters, you know?)

As far as bringing SD-6 back--and I think I've probably mentioned this to you before--what I liked best about the SD-6 concept is that it gave the show this central conflict and goal around which other action could revolve and evolve. SD-6 was like the shadow CIA: either their missions were the mirror-image of the CIA's mission, or there was this contest between the two organizations to see who could get there first. They've kind of got that going on with the Covenant, but there's not the extra tension of Sydney being a double-agent with the constant suspense of the possibility of discovery. Now there's...I don't know what the hell you'd call it. It's like Dynasty with spies.

(Note: this is not to say I have not enjoyed Alias lately, because i think it's obvious I have.)

I'm not so sure I'm entitled to have an opinion as I only came on board with seasons three and thus have watched the entire thing in reverse, but I feel that any time there is less Sark is a bad time for me.

Word to infinity.

It's like Dynasty with spies.

Okay, where's this icon, for real?
