Stephen Colbert is love.

1. Is anybody else out there into Greek? If not, WHY NOT?! SERIOUSLY? I know when you think ABC Family you think "as if!", but if The O.C. had been less stupid or Gossip Girl wasn't so much about the wicked awesome clothes they might be as awesome as Greek!

Greek has m/m slash and f/f slash and het and gen and anything in between. There are black people and white people and Indian people and gay people and dorks, and it's SO college, but the good parts, and some of the bad parts. At least go to the website and click around. Discover your love of Cappie.

I DEFY you not to love Cappie.

If Seth Cohen hadn't been quite such a pompus tool and slightly cool, he would've... not been Cappie. He would be Rusty. Actually, Rusty's not cool as Cappie, either, but he wants to be. And his heart's in the right place. And Calvin! Gay and black and a wicked ex-hockey star and getting laid by adorable guys with dimples! Also, if Chuck and Nate from Gossip Girl had a baby, he would be Evan. Evan's kind of a tool. And for a change, even the girls are awesome too! At first it seems like Casey is a vapid cow, but she's got real heart, plus it turns out that Rebecca is the scheming whore and Ashleigh, you know, not bright, but her heart is in the right place. How can I not pimp this show?

All I'm saying is give peace a change give the show a chance. You can watch episodes right on the website! Just try it. Would I steer you wrong?


2. Gossip Girl is back tonight! Hooray! Go read this article in the meantime.


3. Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles fans, if you haven't read the things you know about a person by [livejournal.com profile] svilleficrecs I don't know what you're doing with your life. Seriously. It's Derek/John, and it's hot and so fucking twisted and so perfectly realized. When I finished reading it all I could think was "That's SO canon" and just, um, yeah.


3a. I had a thought after reading the above story for the second time (yes, I like it that much) that since Christian Bale has been cast as John Connor for the new series of Terminator movies (did you not know that?) that my brain has to reconcile Christian Bale having sex with Brian Austin Green. I just -- I can't see this. I think there's smoke coming out of my ears. Can ANYONE see this? Can you draw me a picture? Or a manip. Or um, something? We needs it precious! There'll be pron at the end of it for you!


ETA: #4: I don't supposed anyone would have a copy of the new Jason Mraz album, We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. lying around that they could upload for the class? How about just some Jason Mraz live? Help a sister out!

Is Greek available for download? 'Cause you've been pimping it for a while now, so I guess it's not just a phase and I should actually try it.

My roommate works on Greek. I'm not sure I can be fannish about something my roommate works on. Is there an official code of honor about things like this?

Is there an official code of honor about things like this?

Yes. It's called "support the person who pays half the rent." Seriously, I know what it's like to be too close to a project and want to protect yourself, but I am fannishly obligated by the code of "If it's Actually Good, Tell People!" to pimp this show.

Heh. I shall keep this in mind. *salutes*

Also, *changes her mind about whether or not she wants to click on that Derek/John link about 12,000 times* Clearly, I am languishing in indecisive-land today.

I find it pretty difficult to get into soap-like things. Well, I might like most at first but in the long run, I tend to be turned off. However, a hackthis rec is always something else, so I'll check out the first eps of Greek. :)

And I just watched that Colbert ep from last week with the candidates + Edwards. Talk about hilarious.

READ IT! You can thank me afterwards.

Christian Bale having sex with Brian Austin Green

... Uhm. Excuse me for a moment. NGGGGGHGHHHHH ADFGDFGKAFDHADFHKAFDHAFD!

Thanks for breaking my brain there.

Did you see that The Sarah Connor Chronicles seem to have been renewed (http://community.tvguide.com/blog-entry/TVGuide-Editors-Blog/Ausiello-Report/Ausiello-Scoop-Fox/800037914)? :D!

And I'm so there with you on the Greek love.

Greek! My roommate and watched it when it was airing on ABC this summer, but lost track of it! Cappie is so much love that it hurts. Thanks for the link so I can see more!

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2008-04-21 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I would (biasedly) say that Greek more of a serial that a soap, but um, it's still really good! Do not make up your mind before you see it!

Also, Stephen = love.

I did see that has been renewed, I hope they make BAG a regular. BAG. Man, that will never not be weird.

I posted about Greek recently, because how is it that nobody else is watching it? I love this show so much. I want there to be a Cappie/Casey/Evan OT3 happy ending with babies. It's disturbing how much, actually. Why is there no fic? Why why why? LOL. Is it greedy to want Cappie and Evan and Calvin?

[identity profile] heidi8.livejournal.com 2008-04-21 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Rocket Man (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DXGM5WC1), performed by jason Mraz. Hope you didn't already have it.

And Christian Bale? In Terminator?

Okay, that sounds very, very pretty.

I actually haven't seen any of SCC, but I have it all downloaded for when I'm traveling next month, yay.

Your icon is me watching TCR. Every night.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2008-04-21 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I've been trying to get people to watch Greek for a while. Nobody seems interested. It's very sad. I can do Casey/Cappie or Casey/Evan or Evan/Cappie -- the lived together freshman year! -- but not all three. I fricking LOVE Calvin.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2008-04-21 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I did get it, thank you! And I think you will really like SCC. Well, I like it at any rate ;-)

Same here! (Only replace 'night' with 'afternoon' -- long live the internets.) But yes, with much flailing and sighing and swooning, and oh Stephen!!

I generally see it in the morning myself. And I tend to act something like *points to icon* when I do.

THANK YOU

You were right. That was fucking brilliant.

I've been on board with Greek since the beginning. Last season seemed to be the 'channels no one cared about debuting good shit.' Like USA with Burn Notice and Psych. And ABC Family with Greek and Kyle XY. What's going on? My whole world is askew.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2008-04-21 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
One of my favorites.

The basic cable networks prolly figured they had nothing to lose and everything to gain by putting on quality programming for a change. Burn Notice *said with much longing*
