swatkatAm finally home. Just got in (after being stuck in the damn traffic for an hour or so with a very whiny cat and a very jittery father), unpacked (don't you just *hate* unpacking?), and am now (slowly) going through the flist and my e-mails. I wish my brain would work. *sigh*
On other news, how come no one told me that Boone/Shannon is canon? *dies*
I don't like Jack. He's really, really, really annoying. He has these standards that he expects everyone to live up to, and when they don't, he adopts this holier-than-thou attitude that I find extremely irritating. To be fair to him, he tries to live up to those standards as well, and is pretty harsh on himself as well when he fails, but he needs to understand that different people have different standards, different needs and capabilities. A lot of my favourite characters actually have this characteristic (Buffy, for example), but somehow I can't warm up to Jack, which makes this so very annoying.
Speaking of Buffy, I just saw 'The Gift'. Cried. She is so very brave. *sniffs*
BtVS S5 is quite boring in parts (read anything that has to with Glory), but I like the individual character arcs. And why on earth did they have to take up the magic=addiction storyline in S6? Apart from the fact that it's horrible storytelling (you just don't change metaphors like that), it wasn't required - they could've easily done the Dark!Willow storyline from Willow's unscrupulousness re. certain aspects of magic ('Forever'), and her growing to be a very powerful witch.
Maybe it's just me, but Desperate Housewives keeps getting better every week. I actually enjoy it a lot more that Lost (some of which I find quite boring). Bree and Rex's discussion about sex was absolutely priceless ("How about Palestine?" LOLOL!).
