Blah, blah, blah, blah fishcakes

I am now going to blither about television.

I really, really want this cop storyline to GO AWAY! It is so stupid and unnessary. They are tying so hard to give House a nemisis, when really the whole bleedin' world is his nemisis.

And besides that, no self-respecting court would even hold up the cop's investigation, because all House's expensive lawyer has to do is say, 'House was mean to him in the clinic and now he is harassing my client.'

Not only that, House wasn't that horrible, at least not until after the cop tripped him. And they want to show how House's behaviour is getting him in trouble, but it isn't his behaviour so much as it is the cop's. Arugh.

A better nemisis type would be exactly what John Larroquete was. Someone just as intelligent as House who knows exactly how to work him. That was brilliant, I thought.

You can't just elope on the spur of the moment in a foreign country. I'm sure there's laws and things. Paris does not equal Vegas. Sheesh.

I don't understand why Rory stopped being editor. Doyle was editor for at least 2 years, so why did Rory have to stop after 1 semester? I could see if it were Spring semester, but this is just stupid and sloppy.

And I'm annoyed at the 'previously' bit, because they showed Marty and as soon as those girls mentioned 'boyfriend' I knew it was Marty so it was totally not a surprise.

I thought Rory's meltdown was kind of realistic, though. I remember feeling like that. Although I thought she wanted to be a journalist. Maybe she still feels she 'doesn't have it' like whatshisname said.

While I love Mama Kim, and her whole reaction to the pregnancy, and I love Lane and everything, that storyline is the worst. And twins? I hate it when people on television have twins because they always carry to term and never have a c-section. Stupid. And do they even have health insurance?

Recent episode not the greatest, but it was interesting. Even though I had to close my eyes at the vomiting petals thing. Ick. And I didn't quite 'get' what the faeries were, or why they felt the need to off poor Estelle. And I couldn't help but wonder if the person who wrote that read Pratchett's Lords and Ladies because, similar concepts.

I have to admit that, in the beginning when Jack and Ianto were sharing that sort of awkward moment, I shouted, "Kiss him! Kiss him!" more than once.

I'm still very meh about this whole season. The Others bore me, and I liked it better when it was more supernatural. And why couldn't Jack have said, "Send Kate and Sawyer back. When they call me on a walkie-talkie and tell me they are at camp, and can prove it by having Locke talk or something, then I will do the operation. That's not hard, is it?

And just for the sake of completeness, Still loving this show, and it actually answers the occasional question, unlike Lost. Could do without Nikki, and it would be nice if they introduced a Super Girl who wasn't blonde, but whatever. Hiro back in time to save the waitress is neat. Can't wait to see where that goes.

I should have better things to talk of, but I don't.

Well, just for the sake of argument, the waitress is a redhead...

I thought that the episode was really bland, and I'm really disliking psychicop and his stupid wife.

I also have to say that the redheaded waitress's crush on Hiro was probably the most natural part of the show, and I hope they work well together. Her little brain is just way too cute to be ate up.

Yeah, I liked her. At first I thought she was introduced just so she'd be killed off and, while I wasn't wrong, I hope she turns out to be more of a semi-regular. Or at least Hiro will save her.

I totally called that Radioactive Man was going to be the one who possibly blows up NYC. Maybe he'll hook up with Sylar and they'll try to be super criminals or something.

My least favorite storyline is Nikki's. I like the cop, but wish he'd leave his stupid wife already.

I just read on the TVGuide.com that Ausiello: Fanboys, prepare to piddle yourself. Christopher Eccleston — the original Dr. Who from the current Sci Fi/BBC series — is joining the cast in January. All I can say is SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

I'm starting to wonder if Radioactiveman is a red herring, just like BGM being an evil SOB (which...well, he kind of is, but not in the way that we all thought). Still, there have to be a few things that we can count on, so if RAM is one of them, cool. He is well on his way to being a wonderful nemesis.

And our favorite doctor? *dies*

I can't wait!

Your TARDIS spins. My TARDIS doesn't spin. Am jealous.

I have no idea about any of these shows, but I must say that I cannot stand gratuitous twin "tvland" pregnancies.

*delivered full-term twins without c-section, but it wasn't pretty*

[charliesmum.livejournal.com]

Good lord, did you? Wow. How big were they?

And good for you.

[robriki.livejournal.com]

Ro weighed 6 lbs and Bri was 7 lb. 11 oz. They were born @ 37 weeks and a couple of days, which is considered full-term for twins.

House: I agree, this Nemesis thing was interesting for one episode. Now it's just silly.

And why couldn't Jack have said, "Send Kate and Sawyer back. When they call me on a walkie-talkie and tell me they are at camp, and can prove it by having Locke talk or something, then I will do the operation. That's not hard, is it?

Because this is JACK and he has to make everything harder than it is.

Completely agreed re: House. Besides, on what planet does the arresting officer conduct the investigation? Especially when he's got a conflicting interest? Hel-lo? And why has the hospital not forced House to lawyer up, never mind the rest of the staff? I could be wrong, but I'm not sure they're actually under any compunction to answer questions unless they're forced to by subpoena.

but I'm not sure they're actually under any compunction to answer questions unless they're forced to by subpoena. Totally! You'd think Cuddy would make sure the hospital's council was there when they are questioned.

I really hope this arc is over soon. Grrr.
