Neti potting gets easier every time. Yay. I have a lovely bottle full of amoxicillin and I am already vastly improved from yesterday. Yay.

Vampire Diaries continues to be awesome.

Meanwhile, boss told me to stay home after my Doctor appointment and to take today off. So I have. Since then I have mainlined all of Strike Back and WOW I love the flow between the episodes when you watch them all together. The progression of Scott and Stonebridge's partnership is truly a beautiful thing to behold. And where did they find all those lovely breasted women? Seriously, the boobs on this show are completely amazing. There is so much swirling in my mind about the show and I want to get it down on paper but I'm holding off until the season is over. There's only one more episode left. I'm hoping they don't kill off everyone and start all over again because these characters are amazing together.

I really want to fuck Colonel Grant.

And Damien Scott.

Preferably at the same time.

::cough::

There is not a Strike Back com on LJ. There is not one single Strike Back fiction on AO3. There are 2 on fanfic.net one from season 1 and one from season 2.

Fangirls. This is criminal. HOW can you not be writing about this show? JFC. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU??? There aren't any icons. I can't do graphics!

Help me Yuletide, you are my only hope.

I'm about to pop in SoA season 3 and re-watch it. Except I want to start from the very beginning. BUT! I only have so much time and if I'm going to write Jax/Trinity I need to immerse myself in season 3. BUT! I also need to get all the early Juice and Tig and Chibbs bits so I can work on that too. There's only so many hours in a day and 13 episodes per season. I've watched season 1 at least 3 times and none of the others more than once. What do, what to do??

If you hear of a random killing spree in rural North Carolina, I've cracked from watching too much ultra-violent television.

I am working on a story, my hand to god.

\o/\o/\o/

best news I've heard all day.

And that makes a ton of sense. I haven't actually watched all of Generation Kill myself. I got three episodes in and then was distracted by something else new and shiny. Maybe I should turn off SoA and put in GK. It could help alleviate my needs for Strike Back fannishness

GK is everything AMAZING. Plus, mountains of fic. (Though I really wish that Brad/Ray was the fandom OTP. They get some fic and one great AU epic but it's more rare. /entitled whinging)

I have heard nothing of this Strike Back you speak of. I initially read it as Strikeforce and then went with that to assuming it was an MMA themed show. but apparently... not?

here is a pimp post written after the very first episode. The show has gotten *way* better since then. Season one was broadcast on Sky, and the current season which ended tonight is being broadcast on Cinemax. You absolutely do not need to see season one to jump into the show. It has its issues but the issues improve somewhat as the story progresses.

It's highly entertaining on a multitude of levels, the least of which is the eye candy. Both male and female. The biggest of which is the development of the relationship between Scott and Stonebridge, followed by Scott and the Colonel.

Thanks for the info. hmmm... It sounds interesting, mostly because I'm a hardcore Generation Kill fan. The fact that there's no fic is such a bummer. (Yes, this is a major factor in my tv and movie watching, will it have a significant fanfiction base?)

Just so you know, there are some AWESOME things too.

I seriously seriously am *still* all a-squee that we got such a graphic scene of a man going down on a woman, liking it, making sure she came, and only then thinking of his orgasm.

Maybe Misfits and Strike Back should have a duel. Somewhere, somewhen in fictional space Simon is shouting, "hey! that's my signature act!" lol.

hmmm, the sad thing is that if this were HBO then there would be lesbians. Hot solider ladies in forbidden love.

LOL!!! I can see Simon meeting Scott, he wouldn't last very long before he was punched in the face. Repeatedly.

No lesbians so far, but there is always hope.

Forbidden only if it's fraternization.

I've been seeing mutterings in small fandom communities about it. If everyone/most live through last night's episode I can see it really growing.
