Things!

1. The lovely tabaqui asked me to chatter on about Almost Human and since it contains my movie boyfriend Karl Urban, I can so do this.

Almost Human!

I really thought this show had some serious potential. I love films like Blade Runner and I really think if this show had been given another season, it could have gone somewhere cool. The setting is FILLED with all sorts of things they could have done. Imagine every single Phillip K. Dick or Neal Stephenson story - it could have gone into this show. I just want my rain-soaked techno-neuromancer groove show, is that too much to ask?

I liked grumpy!jaded!cop!Karl and Dorian the Super Awesome Android. I've loved Lili Taylor since Mystic Pizza (showing my age again!) and to have her be the boss? Perfection!

Ugh, why cancel the shows with potential? *sulks* I liked having Karl on my telly on a weekly basis. SO disappointing.

2. Yuletide noms are open! Wooo!

3. I've discovered that I've somehow started writing my original thing in first person. It feels good. I'm...going to go for it and see what happens next.

Pics! Would you like pics?




Happy Monday! (If that's possible!) ♥

I know, right? Just plain ridiculous! I wonder if they went overbudget and that's why they pulled the plug? Although, I've always thought that if the writing was sound, it doesn't matter what it looks like. Look at the X-Files? They managed to pass Vancouver off as Florida!

Yeah, it's a mystery. So sad!
*sigh*

And i dunno much about tv show budgets, but it didn't *seem* like something that would be super over-budget, you know? Meh.
