Sep. 25th, 2007 12:14 pmThe thing about me and Heroes is, we're like roommates who can watch movies at the same time but never have personal conversations.
I began watching it in the first place because Sam was writing fic for it. (See: House, Ouran, Studio 60, Wimsey, Lovejoy, etc.etc.and-so-on). And I find that is has about six lines I adore per episode, and it has the largest number of w00bies in the core cast that I have ever encountered, which means that I love a lot of the characters--and even some of the ones who aren't w00bies, I love. But the plots almost always fail to capture my attention, and there are also two or three characters I intensely dislike. (Jessica/Nikki FTL.)
So I watched the premiere last night, yes, and I enjoyed it (because the kind of shows that I can talk to the screen about a lot are usually enjoyable) but all in all--I still say it was much better when Sam was writing it.
I miss Jack.
ANNOYANCES OF THE DAY:
This is the SECOND time Starbucks has ignored my instructions about pumpkin spice syrup. The pumpkin spice syrup is the point. I do not often indulge myself as regards money and sweet rich fattening things, and when I do, I expect them to be worth it. This is your last warning, Starbucks: next time I will go back and make you do it over. This is ridiculous.
WHY cannot one search other people's journals for comments containing thus-and-such? I spent forever last night looking for a conversation I had with somebody in Sam's journal, and still haven't found it.
