Jun. 15th, 2006 01:28 amHey, guess what I just saw? (Granted, I missed the first half-hour, but STILL.)
First off, how sad is it that baby Isabelle was a better actress than grown Isabelle?
No, really. I mean, Megalyn's gorgeous, I'll give her that, but come on. And the thing is that I still like Isabelle and what she represents and the thought of what a possible hookup with Shawn could mean, but I can't STAND the actress. I don't get the bit where she's portraying Isabelle as having so little emotion. I know she was a baby, but ... the hell?! Even baby Isabelle was more emotional than that. If this were fanfic, I'd be calling a Mary Sue, although granted, that's more the character than Megalyn. (Note to self -- it's not spelled "Isabadactress.")
And yet, still shipping Shawn/Isabelle. I don't even get my brain.
On the other hand, I know Shawn was hot before, but daaaaaaamn. He just keeps getting yummier, honest to God. And good for him for turning in TJ Kim, but boy, is that going to bite him in the ass.
Kevin -- crazy, degenerating, CRAZY, lovable Kevin.
Aw, poor Maia. But yay for the fact that she apparently likes Marco, and the three of them play board games, and then she tries to make him feel better by saying Diana likes him better, and of course Diana likes him better than (I presume) Kevin, because Marco is FIVE KINDS OF AWESOME.
Matthew creeped me out last season, but this season he's practically walking slime. Although you'll forgive me if I got a guilty pick-me-up from him slapping Isabelle.
Alana continues to be gorgeous beyond comprehension. Especially when she's wearing red. PRETTY.
The Nova group storyline is ... eh, I don't know. I mean, I kind of like it, but at the same time, isn't two groups with ulterior motives enough? We don't know what the higher-ups in NTAC are planning half of the time, the 4400 Center siphoned enough info from tiny Isabelle (I'm guessing that's where Matthew got his info of what she's meant to do) where they could have tons of secrets and it wouldn't be a surprise, and don't even get me started on the Powers That Will Be. And now we have a terrorist group? Urgh.
Oh, Lily. I'd feel more depressed about her death, I suppose, if it didn't mean we don't have Supermom around anymore now. Oh, well. More Marco/Diana?
Also, that "Characters welcome" commercial with Monk and Shawn makes me a special kind of giggly. (Why can't more of my fandoms do crossover commercials?)
Anyway, I have to leave for the zoo at six in the morning and I haven't even had any sleep tonight. Damn it, and I wanted to write story notes for the nice long SPN fic I want to work on in the car. Now I'll probably just pass out as soon as my butt hits the passenger seat. *sigh*

Date: 2006-06-15 06:55 am (UTC)As for Shawn, MMHMMM, the fact that Megalyn is apparently the only half black actress these Vancouver shows can find have aided us in providing a metaphorical Shawn/Robot/Dean sandwich, to which I say AMEN.
I'm curious as to how the Matthew, Nova Group and Jordan storylines will eventually coalesce, and exactly how big a hole Shawn just dug for himself.
And eee! Diana/Marco. They're just too adorable.

Date: 2006-06-15 07:37 am (UTC)Awkward pause. Sam and Dean look at each other. Dean shuffles and looks tragically ill and starts to deny it, but then Sam slaps a hand over his mouth is like, "YES YES WE ARE 4400. We are like your BROTHERS OR SOMETHING SHAWN. Save Dean or I'll kill you with my brain."
Then ORGY and emo!betrayed!Shawn when he learns the truth, but the demon is somehow involved in the whole burgeoning catastrophe (a year of burning mothers according to John, right?) and Matthew is slimey and intrusive about Sam's non-4400 abilities. NTAC tries to pin Dean's ass down for St. Louis, but now they're a little more open to the supernatural explanation, aren't they? And omg, can you imagine the too adorable for words Dean/Maia scene where all our ovaries explode and she gives him some cryptic Daddy-related news? EEE!
Ok, why is it 3:30 am, and why am I on CRACK?

Date: 2006-06-15 12:23 pm (UTC)All the Monk commercials are great. Have you seen the one with the guy from Psych? Brilliant.
I know it's gonna come bite Shawn in the ass to have turned in TJ, but honestly, the Nova Group is bloody stupid. They used her in a very public fashion to try to kill Ryland. If Shawn didn't turn her in, either she'd have gone on to do more/worse, or the NTAC would eventually have found her -- and they are still mad/nettled/pissed/hurt/vengeful from her shutting down the whole center on Collier's birthday.
I can't wait to see her face when Collier shows up alive to the world.
As for Lily - I hated Lily. She was whiny and annoying in my opinion. So it's not a sadness to me at all that she's dead. Not one bit.

Date: 2006-06-15 10:09 pm (UTC)Clearly there's another 4400 who has that power, who is hot and will demand lots of sex in exchange for fixing the Impala. :P
