Had a very pleasant day yesterday with [livejournal.com profile] china_shop, [livejournal.com profile] woolly_socks and [livejournal.com profile] morebliss for Outrageous Fortune S1 (I forgot how awesome it is) and then [livejournal.com profile] morebliss introduced me to Life on the Murder Scene.

Which, well, I thought I was basically immune to MCR flavoured bandom. Now? Not so much. Gerard's earnestness and comic books love, and Frank's hyperactivity and cuteness, Bob's camera kicking, Brian's ... well, hotness, and Ray's surprising talkativeness was all very happy-making. (Mikey, I do like you too, mostly).

Two things give me a little pause, they do take themselves a little seriously (well, okay Gerard does, but he's pretty awesome while doing so) and I'm not so much for the blood imagery (small squick), but I think they've moved away from that a little? Anyway hardly large impediments. ;)

So, yeah, this might be amusing.

Other fandom things:

- I finished Mad Men S1 and it is one awesome show. I need to track down S2.



Big fan of Roger/Joan, because John Slattery and Christina Hendricks are all sorts of awesome. I also liked the little dance Joan had with Paul, and gah, sad slashy subplot with her roommate. :(

I do feel for Peter, a tiny bit, but most of the time I just want to smack him hard across a room.

Harry is pretty awesome though. I mean, flawed, because they all (and we all) are, but still, I like him.

Don is interesting, but I do feel for him most of the time. Betty, I like, buy also sort of makes me apprehensive, as when she finally does go off the rails it's going to hurt.

I love, love how they've set it in this time period and all the little subtleties they weave in, my favourite possibly being with the Italian designer Betty met 'Johnny' aka Gianna Versace. That was so well done.



- I wasn't such a big fan of the most recent Kings episode, which may have been a result of being really tired well watching, but I'm still intrigued, and hear it may not be long for TV land. *sigh* Well, with those ratings everyone keeps going on about.

- Heroes: Still there, mostly. HRG rocked the most recent ep.

I think that's it. ;) Now I've ticked Mad Men off, I think I need to continue my Wire watching.

Also, I have lost the battle with myself about whether a hollow chocolate bunny is appropriate breakfast food. Nom, Easter.
