Dear [livejournal.com profile] barely_bean, [livejournal.com profile] linaerys, [livejournal.com profile] sparky77, and [livejournal.com profile] scribblinlenore,


After much badgering and harassment (sorry about the restraining orders) I have embarked upon yet another attempt to view Naked!Adrian Pasdar Baaaaaaaaby Daddy! Profit. I have found upon my second viewing of the pilot -- during which I actually managed to sit and watch the whole thing (for a change) -- that perhaps I was a bit hasty in my preliminary dismissal of the show as some sort of 90's abomination of bad fashion, worse CGI, and whatever did they do to Adrian's HAIR?

I mean the fashion is still horrid, and the CGI would give Peter Jackon a coronary, but, um, yes, there certainly is something to be said for Jim Profit. Namely: I would SO hit that. [livejournal.com profile] barely_bean, clearly you know my type better than I do.

I am not saying Profit is the shit (at least not yet), but perhaps it should not be dismissed so summarily with the amount of naked!Adrian on the screen.

Regards,
[livejournal.com profile] hackthis


P.S.: Caro, I have achieved the Americone Dream. I finally see how someone could OD on Ben & Jerry's.

P.S.S.: Re: Entourage 3.13 'Dog Day Afternoon' ARI, I LOVE YOU LIKE I'M BLIND! LLOYD, CAN WE BE BFF 4EVA?

Woohoo, mission accomplished!!! Or...mission begun. Or something.

The show really does get better the farther you get into it, although the fashion and CGI remain abominations. Just concentrate on the naked, that's what I do!

So. Um. Yeah. I, uh, naked!Adrian makes up for a lot, doesn't it?

*gloats and rubs hands together*

And it just gets more nekkid better. After watching the pilot, I said, "I like it, but he's hotter as Nathan." After watching the next two, I said, "OMGSOHOTMINEHANDSOFFBITCHES!" I mean, I said, "He might be just as hot as Profit as he is as Nathan." The third one starts with him in the shower. Just sayin'.

Eeee! So glad you're watching it. The CGI does make Baby Peter Jackson cry, and just wait until they talk about "modemming" files to each other. But Naked!Sociopathic!Adrian!Pasdar!

Hee. Modeming. And don't forget the terrifying draining of the files!!!!

Hey, we don't want to scare her away again!

[livejournal.com profile] hackthis, just concentrate on the nekkid. The nekkid is all you need . . .

Oh, you hush, little girl. I wasn't even going to re-watch it and then you all kept harassing me and I said fine, and then I started re-watching the pilot and it was like some completely different show that I'd never seen before!

"I like it, but he's hotter as Nathan." After watching the next two, I said, "OMGSOHOTMINEHANDSOFFBITCHES!" I mean, I said, "He might be just as hot as Profit as he is as Nathan." The third one starts with him in the shower. Just sayin'.

I am rapidly coming to this conclusion. I think it has to do with the naked thing. And also, his ass. He has got a GREAT ass. Why do they not show this more on Heroes? I'm kind of in shock about this. I think Peter needs to be caught checking out Nathan's ass like Profit does to Jack's wife in 'Hero.' *pauses* Yeah, okay, I can tell no lie, I'm gonna chop down this cherry tree.

Not work safe

His ass is like a perfect bubble. It is beyond perfect.

If I may . . .

I think Peter definitely needs to be caught ogling Nathan's ass at some point.

Just remember, if you want to hit that, make sure to have an escape plan, a back-up escape plan, files left with an responsible party in case of your untimely demise, more files left elsewhere in case of that party's untimely demise, and an up-to-date will.

And it's not Jim I'm warning you about. It's me certain unstable Profit fangirls who might take your grabby hands amiss no, really, I've learned to share.

LOL. I'd fight you for him, maybe -- we'll see. After two episodes I'm just thinking on a one-night stand while Nathan's on the campaign trail -- if he proves to be even hotter and crazier, well, I may have to pull out some of my Bat toys.

Oh, I see it's the deep end, then. Profit is what ruined AP for me for good.

I want the Willie Nelson one they recalled. I am v sad about this.

Why'd they recall it? Pot content too high?

It didn't list wheat on the label. It is peach cobbler.

*shakes head* How the hell else do you make the crust for peach cobbler but with yeast, which you know, wheat derivative. Oh well. Sorry, chicken.

Also, Adrian Pasdar as Jim Profit is so deliciously fucked up and evil and wrong, yet HOT -- I can't believe you don't like it. Wait, *I* like it -- of course you won't. ;)

I normally love the bad guys, but I have trouble feeling sympathy for sociopaths. You excepted, of course.

Which is why we've lasted as long as we have, baby.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad you watched. And I honestly think it gets better as it goes on. They tone down a lot of style stuff and they start really developing a lot of the other characters, and it's end up like a very dark greek farce.

And it also has some genuinely cool woman characters. Not the one your supposed to like, but both Bobbi and Gail are pretty awesome.

It's tremendously droll and fucked up, I can't believe I fought you guys on it for so long. Bad [livejournal.com profile] hackthis, no cookie for you. Gail is hysterical in how she's being sucked into his vortex -- I don't blame her at all. I still miss Nathan though.

Profit is fun to watch from a distance, but Nathan is someone you could totally snuggle un too. He would grumble about it at first and never admit that he liked it, but Nathan totally enjoys a good snuggle...

I kind of can't believe I just wrote that.

Neither can I. Am I supposed to be able to work now? I mean snuggling with Nathan?!

*is now useless*

I bet he's a snuggles after he just wakes up, not for long because he's all responsible and shit, but like for a minutes or two, he's won't want to wake up and his hair will be all mess up and he'll try and burrow into whoever he's sleeping with it.

I did this \o/ when I first saw this. The whole thing is amazing and fucked up and I still can't believe it was ever on television. And Jim, I mean, I don't think he's necessarily a sociopath you know. He's just-- goal-driven. And you're a women that understand goals, so I figured you guys would get along.

Also, did you ever read [livejournal.com profile] scribblinlenore's Lex/Profit crossover. Cause it's just so incredibly fucked up and hot.

You were right. I was wrong. I don't know how I could have fought it, Caro, really. I started watching it the second time and I was all 'They're not seriou-- oh, wait did he just get everybody fired? Oh wait, did he just kill his dad?! Ohhh, Mr. Profit.' I see how Gail got sucked in. And no, I have no read Lenore's story, but I am now all over it. *hugs* I shall not doubt the Caro again. Yis.
