Thank you so much for your thoughts and well wishes. This was supposed to be a nice, calm summer but it has turned out to be everything but.
Isn't that the way it always happens?
Anyway, I've added more shows to Rants & Rambles...the newest being "Misfits" series one and two. Eva introduced us to this one. It's Being Human, Supernatural, with a dash of Kids in the Hall.
Trust me, it's funny and well written...they won a BAFT for best drama series. I hope you enjoy.
Let me know if you have any request. Thanks again for your kindness. x
Crystal, Nathan is a hoot!!
....but Simon is the sleeper character. His hotness came out of nowhere!

This is my second favorite show right after Being Human. Nathan is out of his mind. He's a complete ass but you can't help but love him. Yeah Simon just can out of nowhere with the hotness. He and Alisha are just to damn cute together.

LOl yeah future Simon is hot. I'm big cry baby so you know I cried when Simon died. But thankfully not as bad as I did when Mitchell died on Being Human. I was a hot mess that episode. lol I looking forwrd to the new series I want to see what powers they choose and if this new guy will be as funny as Nathan. I'm going to miss Robbert Sheehan he played Nathan perfectly.

I'm catching up on Misfits, right now. Thanks for sharing!
BBC won't give access to Americans on their website. |

You're welcome! Not being able to watch the programs on their website sucks.
I'd love to add some of the shows I have on DVD but, as I mentioned, I have NO idea what I'm doing. I'm new to Youtube but I'll figure it out. :) |

Okay, I finished the 2 seasons (or series as them Brits who can't talk good ol' fashioned American English say it) of Misfits and now I'm feeling like I do when I've just finished the latest in a favorite book series. "MAKE MORE DAMNIT!"

Hilarious! it reminds me of another great BBC show "Skins"..Nathan is a riot and Simon has the kind of hotness that just creeps up on you and makes you do a double take :) LOVE it!

Exactly! His hotness blindsides you. Simon and Nathan played so well off of one another. I hope the new blends in with the rest of the crew. I thought the producers would pair Kelly and Nathan but I guess not.
I'll add "Skins" to my playlist later this evening. Look for "Ab Fab", "Nighty Night" and a few others also. |

I love the fact that you guys are such anglophiles when it comes to your tv . Skins is cool but i prefer a show callled the in betweeners as it is brutally funny .

Watching Misfits has inspired me to seek and rewatch Coupling (one of the greatest Britcoms).

Ek! I loved 'Coupling' I have the box set. Once I figure out how to upload, I'll post them. I also have Father Ted, The Tudors, Rome, Skins, The In Betweeners, Black Books, Love/Hate, and more documentarties than you can shake a stick at.

Heck yeah I’m a card carrying member of his army! 'North and South' is one of my favorites. When he shouted, “I’m asking you to marry me because I love you!” I almost fainted. *fans self* He was soooo hot and he’s a wonderful actor. I’m adding it to my YT channel as well

Oh I was all about Simon from the jump. He's the only one that has any true "hero" knowledge. I felt like he was the best "Cassandra" character and even when he killed the probation officer and had the freezer "issue" (yes, I am completely glossing over his creep factor in that moment) I knew he was going to redeem himself. So, when Future Simon turned around in that shower I almost fainted...seriously, I may have swooned because Sig Other gave me this weird look.
I'm really trying hard not to guess future story lines because even though the future/past time travel thing has me a bit nervous because my little geek brain starts thinking about time continuums and the probability that the future hasn't really been altered and the cycle will start again...yeah total geek meltdown. I love this show and can not express my gratitude enough that you pointed me in the direction of discovering it. Sigh... |

Ek! I know, right?! When Simon put Sally in the freezer that was kind of creepy. But I forgave him because he was trying to protect the others and he visited her…he was pretty hacked up about it and the others (save Alisha after she got a peek at Future Simon) didn’t say thanks or appreciate what he’d done. And girl, I almost passed out when he turned around in the shower! And the love scene was quite delicious!
Curtis’s powers are inherently selfless because they only work if he is truly remorseful…which forces him to feel when others would simply flash back, correct the mistake, and move on. And yes, we’ve crossed the line of geekdom with our analysis of his powers. LOL! I’m trying not to think about the new series, also. I can’t wait to see their new powers. I hope Simon kept his…I don’t think he sold his even though Alisha lied to him. You’re more than welcome! There are more shows to come. |

My general hopes are that Simon gets back invisibility (or at least nothing related to his superheroeness, because he has to work to get that), that the blond violent lady (I'm horrible with names) gets back mindreading, that Curtis gets back timetravel.
Alisha should get something more manageable than super-aphrodisiac power. One would think she could at least have gotten a good swap for that. Even if Nathan was returning, I don't think I'd want to keep him immortal... Well, funny as he is, he is jerk enough to want to remorselessly kill. Really, though, I hope none of them becomes Nathan (from Heroes). Though Sylar's base power (analyzing systems/patterns and modifying them) would be cool without the part about powereating. As shows go, very funny and with a serious possibility of getting deeper. |
