I met a man this weekend. I think he might be crazy. Hot damn!

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,

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

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!

*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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
