What's all this decent network telly business?

Dear Southland,


You made Bull Randleman gay?!!

FOR THE MOTHERFUCKING WIN! *high five*

Seriously, when I saw Bull in the bar, in his tight black tee shirt (nice guns, Michael Cudlitz!), drinking that piss, err Corona, and the second I saw Crusing!Man next to him, something pinged about what I'd heard about the series and my brain was like, "Oh, sweet baby Jesus, Bull is gay. They went there. WOW."

Show, please do not be leaving like Kings, which was supposed to be in your time slot, but you are clearly for the investment.

Also, Ryan, err, Ben, um, so Ben Mckenzie, is it just weird to share your first name with your character? Oh, who cares, you haven't aged a fucking day, and that line about Ferrari guy getting your lawyer dad to get him off? PRICELESS! *high five Southland writers*

Double high five for Ben taking a Black Studies class!

Triple high five for Regina King (227 in the house!)!

And some other stuff happened, but I couldn't tell you what, because Bull, Ben and Regina for the WIN! Real acting hooray! *\o/*

I swear I am not thinking of the story where Ryan and Seth had a horrible messy break up -- Seth always was a selfish wanker -- and so Ryan left and joined the LAPD and then he gets partnered with Bull and there is stupidly hot, filthy sex in the back of the squad car.

Okay, I lied. I NEED THAT STORY.

<3,

Seriously, people, watch this show!

My brain is incapable of slashing them. I'm trying, but my brain refuses. I think it's because Bull will always be Bull to me now, so I want to keep him on this pedestal and not imagine him having sex with anyone (much like how one refuses to acknowledge that one's own parents have had sex :P). Also, I really like father-figure/son-type-mentor relationships, so if that developed on the show, I would be so jazzed.

...Hah, I was just wondering, does Ryan/Sandy slash exists out there? Oh god, nevermind, I don't want to know :P

If there's anything I've learned over the past ten years, it's that there is slash for everything, regardless of whether or not it should actually exist. *g*

Yes, and in this instance I know this exists. Have not read, nor written, nor even contemplated, and have not been in OC fandom in more than five years. Fuck I'm old, but yes, I know it must be there go to the oc_slash, is that it? Anyroad. You know, if you want it, it's there.

It's hard to keep yourself pure while on the internet. Heh, oh well.

I understand where you are coming from with Bull. The boys of BoB for the most part are just so singularly awesome I'm like, "pairing them up, wot? Awesome overload!" (You know I have no such compunction about the GK boys, bless. I digress). Where was I? Bull! Right! Bull is awesome. And he and Martin should sit around drinking beer and talking about their awesomeness. HOWEVER. In this instance Michael Cudlitz has appealed to my animal brain and have this image of Ben rolling into the bar and Coop (oh, god another Coop!) being there and then there's like probably bathroom sex. and Coop being very Bull about the whole thing, because he is a professional, and Ben being like, um, okay, but that thing we did, and Coop is like "On the clock, kid, stop being a pussy!"

Shit. I think I just wrote my first bit of Southland. I loves it!

Bull is awesome. And he and Martin should sit around drinking beer and talking about their awesomeness.

See, I would totally be behind this 100%. (Though, I have managed to work through my initial aversion to BoB slash after reading tidbits of sville's Winters/Nixon stuff, but my brain only extends to their pairing at the moment and everything else is like a big "No, thank you. I'd rather not imagine that.")

oh, god another Coop!

Ahahaha, I didn't even think of that! Oh, also, apparently the Ferrari guy was played by the same dude who played Oliver in S1 of The OC. So many The OC shoutouts in this episode, it's too good.

and Coop being very Bull about the whole thing, because he is a professional, and Ben being like, um, okay, but that thing we did, and Coop is like "On the clock, kid, stop being a pussy!"

...You're wearing me down already, I can feel it :\
