Television Tuesday :: summer’s a-comin’.

Rather, it’s more or less already here, and that means for the most part, TV in shorter supply.  I mean, HBO is giving us our True Blood in 19 days (!!!) and that’s something.  Once Camelot is over, Starz is premiering Torchwood: Miracle Day, which… well, I’m not entirely sure how I’d feel about it otherwise, and I’ve never seen the original, but.  Dichen Lachman.  1:36 in.

I don’t know what she’s doing there, exactly, or how long she’ll be there.  Or why that woman is punching her in the face.  I do know that nope, I’m automatically going to watch because she is there.  Because A) epic girlcrush?  I think so, and B) supporting my Whedon women?  I think so.

I dunno.  United States of Tara is ending forever soon.  And it’s not going to be a happy conclusion, I can just tell.  Weeds will be starting again, soon, and that’s good I suppose?  I’m curious to see what in the hell they do with it now that she’s all jail-bound.  We will have Sons of Anarchy, and there’s no kidnapped baby, so that’s a blessing.  We won’t have Glee or anything, but honestly.  I sort of need the break.  The Borgias is over, Game of Thrones will be ending.

In short?  I think it’s time to watch a lot more Buffy and maybe do an epic rewatch of Dollhouse, too, and finally finally start Castle.

Monster Monday :: so in 2013, allegedly we’re getting Pride and Prejudice and Zombies in movie form.

No cast has been announced, but I saw someone on imdb debate whether Tom Hardy or Michale Fassbender would be an appropriate Darcy.  Well, really it would depend on the Lizzy, and I have… no idea who, for that, as I’d actually really like to see a real British person, maybe one who’s not really that famous over here.

I have my ideas about Jane, though.  I so want Tamsin Egerton, late of Starz’s Camelot.

She’s legitimately British, for one, and I really do like her.  I first knew her from that awful St. Trinian’s movie, which was… well, awful.  But she’s cute, and now that she’s on Camleot I can legitimately appreciate her.  And she does that whole “I’m innocent except for not and occasionally I say logical things and am somewhat badass very rarely” thing pretty well.  And physically she fits, I think.

So, c’mon Hollywood.  Get with it.
