trancer21Alias - Could someone tell me what the appeal of Sark is? Every forum I visit, there's always tons of Sark squeeage and I'm like - skinny white boy pretending to be a badass. He does nothing for me. But, I will say, he is at least a *vast* improvement over Mr. Wrinkly Brow. Dear Vaughn, I liked you better when you were dead, please do so again. Kthx!
Well, there goes another of Sydney's girlfriends. Too bad, I totally enjoyed watching Anna/Sydney kick the crap out of Vaughn.
And why does Nadia's ghost have to haunt Sloane? Couldn't she, you know, go and stick her ghostly tongue down her sister's throat or something.
You know, if the CIA wants to win more recruits, they really shouldn't use episodes of Alias to do it. Because Syd and Vaughn? Worst Agents EVER!!! And it's not like the CIA comes off much better. How many *really important* missions have been bungled because they only sent ONE goddammed agent? Yeah Jack, great idea, send Syd *alone* to Nepal to get information on the really important chip. Because, you know, that always worked before!
Oh Peyton, how do I love thee? Which is funny since Amy Acker bugged the living snot out of me on Angel. And, now I have Peyton/Sydney as Anna being Sydney slash running around my head. Rachel's involved in there somehow, just haven't figured out the particulars.
Dammit Alias, why'd you have to get so damn slashy just *before* you get cancelled!?!
Lost - Isn't funny how the really good episodes revolve around characters that aren't in your face every day week? And, like Hurley kicking the crap outta Sawyer, I could watch Eko butting Locke in the face *every* week!
Oh, and if I could add just *one* more request to my list of Things I'd Like to See On Lost, I'd like to add 'Give Hurley a Pair' because his mopey, nasally puppydog routine is seriously starting to bug. I guess I'm having a quirky characters hate-on this week.

I liked Eko's storyline, but I thought his conclusion that it all comes back the importance of pushing the button was weird. I didn't understand how, after seeing the Pearl, he would conclude that the button was so important. I guess because his brother was pushing the button in his vision? But that would really make me more curious as to the nature of the button then it would make me concerned about pushing it. But I guess that's just me.

Eko is referring to something, um, bigger? That, because of all the *giant* coincidences that got him to the island, he's deduced that there is meaning in pushing the button *beyond* what it's makers intended.

I've been meaning to ask you, who's the chick in the wetsuit in your new banner?

on 2006-05-11 07:58 pm (UTC)Totally. It's like with the button. If they want to get off the island, and know that pushing the button is part of some experiment, wouldn't it conclude that *not* pushing the button would draw more attention than actually pushing it? Although, I guess, we're at that point where half the people on the island don't actually wanna leave the island. Which probably sucks for the other half.

Hee, I guess it does kinda look like a wetsuit. Anyhoo, that's Claudia Black in Farscape.
