Squee! I love my silly show!


Chloe is Lois is Chloe is Lois!!!! I'm one of the group who always assumed she'd have to go down in bloody tatters to Teach Clark A Lesson, but...she's Lois! I sat through the commercials thinking of Lois storylines and beaming...

It's stupid, but at least it's internally consistent: you can try to kill anyone you want in Smallville, as potentially gruesomely as possible, but so long as your friends back you up in saying that it was all a mind-control mistake, you won't even get a ride in a squad car.

I liked the girlfighting. It was hysterical and even a little scary. AM is such a fun actress to watch. I so want to see her in a really good movie, sooner rather than later.

I loved Adam calling Lana on her princessy crap. Unfortunately, it didn't seem to really faze her, but at least he said it. Ian Somerhalder has a really, really crookedy head, and the awful way they've combed his hair doesn't help. It's like how they always shot Emanuelle Vaugier from the side with the larger eye to make it look really huge in comparison. Why do they want to make their pretty people look funny? Why not just use funny-looking people to start with? They're probably a lot cheaper.

I do like Lana with Adam so much more than I've liked her with anyone they've paired her with thus far.

Loved Molly's glasses. She was pretty except the end of her nose, which had about a hundred little fleshy facets, making it hard for me to look at any of the attractive things about her. I loved Lex sort of seducing her while stealing her data. But how would he know what he was looking for? No. I'm not going to ask that after all. It's Smallville!!!! Lex is being sexy! Nothing better than that, at least nothing they'll film and show to me. I do wonder, however, how Clark explained to Lex that he had to leave Molly's (swanky) apartment to hurry home and save Chloe. That's a huge hole in this ep, and it does bug me.

Overall, I loved this ep. Nice surprises, nice character development and growth...and they seem to be willing and able to develop Lex's "evill" in a subtle, realistic way. I am very happy.

Loved Chloe and Clark's interactions. All of them. Love Chloe.

I knew as soon as Chloe and Clark started talking to Lex about Sommerholt that Lex would be making a deal with Dr. Garner. It doesn't seem like a good relationship to base on threats, however, considering that he'll eventually have to allow Dr. G some access to his brain.

ETA: So sorry if I inadvertently spoiled anyone. I screwed up my tags, which only ever seems to happen when it actually matters a little bit. Fixed now. And I'm doing penance.

Ian S. was really hot on Young Americans, but he is not aging well. I'm interested to see how TW ages, because he's one of those guys that's so pretty, it could all go tragically wrong at any moment.

And Lana? You just destroyed your high school career, your business, your life. Except not! Have fun flirting with the cute new boy because weilding and axe in a crowded locker room has absolutely no repercussions for YOU, princess!

That's a really cool HP-via-anime icon. It makes two things I find unsexy seem maybe sexy. But I still don't want to read HP fic. I'm just saying.

I watched only a matter of minutes of YA when it first aired...it was Hamilton and Jake before H knew J was actually a girl...and I didn't know J was actually a girl, but when I found out I was so annoyed at what I perceived as wimping out that I refused to watch any more. I've always had a degree of uncertainty about IS's looks...he's really exaggerated. His eyes are so BLUE, brows so THICK, cheeks so PINK, smirk so SMIRKY. And I seriously hate his hair.

TW, though? I think TW is going to just get sexier and sexier and there will be some sort of tipping point, after which someone (probably from LJ) will build a temple and we'll all offer to be blood sacrifices.

Attempted axe murder is okay in Smallville, so long as you say you're sorry.

IS's eyebrows squick me most of anything about him.

Did you see my post re this icon earlier tonight? Go check out the art I linked. I've never felt lust for what is essentially a cartoon character before.

I've never used one...but I've wanted one for a long time. They're cheap now! Last time I priced them (it's been awhile) they were around $600 for a tiny one.

God. I want so much stuff it makes me kind of ill...

I'm going to get this one, as it's further on sale, and kicks ass. And also comes with a cool extra brush that costs $99 on its own.

I shouldn't, considering I'm supposed to be paying off debt, not acquiring it, for the float deal (which is still very much on, btw, and I'm almost certainly going with River City Float unless you've come up with something better?), but I'm doing it anyway. Wheeee!
