Just a quickie. Sort of.
Sep. 4th, 2011 10:50 pm1. Predictably, I couldn't wait for the subs to A Thousand Kisses to be released, so I watched eps 3-6 raw, or more like I watched the Woo Jin/Joo Mi scenes, and OMG, these two! THESE TWO! Not only are they vertically disproportionate and age inappropriate and grumpy vs perky, but their romance is following the contract relationship trope! COULD THEY BE ANY MORE PERFECT? Gaaaaaaah, I love them, and they just keep getting more and more adorable. Woo Jin practicing his smile for HOURS. Joo Mi giggling at his picture for HOURS. Their ~look~ when he grabbed her hand as she was cleaning the tea off of his lap! Oh, I love them. I don't even need subs to love them.
2. I watched Girl K the other night. It was pure awesomeness. Just enough emotion mixed in with the kickass. And yeah, it's definitely using Nikita as its inspiration. I mean, it's a different story, but it's kind of going along in the same trajectory. I was kind of bummed that Kim Jung Tae's character (Sang Ho) was in love with the main girl (Yeon Jin)'s mother, because, well, I was looking forward to shipping him with Yeon Jin. Oh, don't look at me like that. It would have been epic had he actually been her teacher like I thought he was going to be. But he's not, so... But don't be surprised if I end up shipping them anyway. Though at the moment I kind of ship Yeon Jin with the incompetent police detective. ANYWAY, the show is so gritty and kickass and it had gratuitous nudity, which I am so not used to with k-dramas, but overall I like its style. And I love that the villain (well, the lead gangster, who is like the third tier villain, but in the first ep he's the villain we're dealing with) he is so freaking sick in the head that he makes your skin crawl. They do not hold back with him. He uses religion to defend his actions, which somehow makes him feel creepishly real. Like, I can believe that a dude like him actually exists in this world, probably because there are people like him in this world. Looking forward to the last two installments.
3. True Blood. Is it wrong that I almost cried for Pam tonight? Good gosh did that scene hurt my heart. Stupid Eric. Forget Sookie and go be merry and evil with Pam. Pam loves only you and is completely devoted only to you. FORGET SOOKIE. Bill will always be in between Eric and Sookie. Always.
4. I thought that season 2 of Community pretty much killed my Jeff/Annie love, but all the spoilers for S3 are getting me a tad bit excited about them again. Just a little. But I can't help but feel that if these spoilers had come out last year instead of this one, I would have gone into a catatonic state (with a permanent :D on my face. And probably some drool). Now I'm just like, "Meh... we'll see." I am excited about the season as a whole, though. I miss Community like crazy. Am also excited for the James Spader-rific premiere of The Office. Oh, how I have missed that man being on my television! Too bad he can't bring along William Shatner.
