Sleep is for the weak! [Or things I do when I can't sleep]

Can't sleep yet even though I *should* be sleeping. So, instead of sleeping I went ahead and watched! Multifandoms, ahoy!

Doctor Who

I finally, finally got around to sit myself down and write something about Classic Doctor Who through the very, very, very kind efforts of livii and vandovan.

Dresden Files

I really like this series, I think it was thassalia who mentioned that Dresden Files was an updated throwback to the 80s detective stories and I think that's a very good description to the series. I also love Murphy. She's so prickly.

Yes, I kinda do have a THING for prickly characters!

Blood Ties

I've seen the four episodes and I like it so far and I love Victoria's glasses. Henry worked a lot better than I thought. I wonder if there's any crossover between Dresden Files and Blood Ties? They both seem like a logical choice to crossover. Plus, I'm sure Victoria and Murphy will get along well!:)

Oh, and hey! Guys, mosey on over to rose_lives! Rose Tyler, Girl Adventurer ficathon is up! There are some fabulous stories there! Speaking of, I also had a drabble some time ago posted here:


Fire and Gold
Doctor Who, Rose Tyler, G
She dreamed sometimes of fire and gold and singing and death

It's about Rose and supposedly my thoughts about the Bad Wolf and how it affects/ed her but it went no where so, I just posted it up. But I'm happy with how it turned out. There are some stories that are really short and others that just goes on and on.

( Short rant about Rose, Bad Wolf and RTD. )

In a way, I do like that Rose is in a parallel world. It means her canon's closed 'til such time RTD decides to bring her back, we can imagine a bunch of stuff Rose is doing without fear of getting jossed.

Smallville thoughts [7x02 - 7x07]

Short thoughts on Smallville episodes before I finally turn in to sleep.

I think, by far, this season is the most coherent one since season four. I think by Wrath I can safely say that Al and Miles have thought up how this season would go. I also have a confession to make, I like Lana. I really do. She's not all bad as some fans would like us to think and as the seasons progressed and as she went steadily dark I began liking her more and more.

( Lois and Grant )

I have more thoughts but I'm so sleepy I'll have to complete this next time.

Vid rec: Samson by bop_radar

Whatever your thoughts on Clark/Lana are, you can't deny that their relationship is doomed and the vid shows it so beautifully. Run, don't walk and
go download Samson!

Smallville 7x08 [Blue]

In conclusion: Overall, I felt that the episode was too rushed, there were some good moments that would have been better if the director took a breath and just slowed down.
