some of my favourite tidbits from the librarians commentary (season 1) :
in the fables of doom eve was supposed to have bluebirds flying around her
john harlan kim ended up with the nickname rooftop for a while during filming
flynn doesn't really wear bowties after the first ep bc a lot of ppl drew comparisons between him and the doctor
charlene was supposed to have a fight scene in the first episide but it ended being cut due to restraints. it also wouldve been revealed she was a guardian then.
morgana le fey was into eve hitting her and had alicia been available in s2 mightve been the one eve was under the spell with (BI EVE CRUMBS WOO)
the way they talk abt ezekiel during the s1 commentary (at the time of filming the commentary theyd also filmed s2) definitely makes me think his s4 backstory was not planned at this point. id already kind of assumed theyd just added it in but the commentaries all but comfirm it tbh.
My personal fav thing they drop in the commentary is that cassandra killed her parents (which whilst im pretty sure its a joke. its my new personal headcanon)
1. Miri's drawing of Rei and Kazuki at their jobs looks so much like them getting married that I thought Miri drew Rei in a wedding dress
2. Kyu's talk with Rei and Kazuki at the end of the episide isn't only because they're hitmen, but his dialogue about "the world not accepting their family" has plenty of queer subtext too
3. The last shot of the episode looked like them getting married with how the tables looked like pews and the lighting was just so freaking dramatic
Is too much to be a coincidence. Like I said before, it's absolutely fine if they don't end up together romantically, but are you hinting at something PA Works???
(Istg if we see them kiss in episode 7 or get engaged/married in episode 10 I am definitely going to explode)
I’m going to make this harder on myself and pick ONE (1)… and today it’s Late Afternoon in the Garden of Bob and Louise. This episode has great pacing, new settings, a heartwarming Bob and Louise plot, is paaacked with bits I quote on the daily, and I got a canon ship tease. What’s not to love??
TNG S6E10 "Starship mine" is one of my fave TNG episides! It's not the most deep or doesn't pose questions about humanity - but it's just such an enjoyable watch I'm suprised I never hear it mentioned.
1. The B-plot of Data learning small talk is one of the funniest things. Brent Spiner acting is PHENOMENAL in this one. Him doing a earnest impression of an annoying person who everyone hates (with Riker and Crusher losing their shit) is so funny. There is also a great blooper on youtube for when he gets a genuine laugh out of the actors. It's just pure fun.
2. Picard being a badass in a Die Hard style plot is amazing. (especially after he runs into a wall trying to escape an awkward interaction). I started out not loving his character, but this episode was one that made him really grow on me. It's again, just very fun! And I love that he goes to Worf's quarter for weapons. It's, again, pure fun!
i'm doing a fun activity of rewatching minecraft diaries and writing down parts of the story that either make me uncomfortable or are just not fitting for the story in my opinion
i'll be putting my findings under a read more, but here! have this out of context note from the last episide i've seen of season 2 as of now lol
it is with a heavy heart that i have to say that Man my younger self Really romanticized this series; the amount of times i've had to pause to calm down cuz i was cringing or just genuinely upset is astonishing. not to say i hate it!!! i actually love this series so much it hurts but i'm also the type of person to bully media i enjoy, especially when it has the kinda things this series has.
it's even funnier cuz i remember almost nothing from back when i first watched it like...6-8 years ago? i think? i believe i started watching mcd specifically when mystreet season 2 or 3 was going on (started watching ms when season 1 of it just ended iirc) and my memory got really bad after a certain global event so that happened. but anyway it's like i'm watching most of it for the first time and i'm genuinely having fun!
anyway if anyone reads this, i was wondering what others think of the series! including the...scenes that are Not Good. i know it's not just me since an irl friend of mine feels the same way as me but i still wanna hear other people's opinions lol
i'll probably post something again when i actually finish what there is of mcd as of now (since season 3 got discontinued but i'm delusional and still hoping for aphmau to finish the series like how she's doing with ms season 7) so yea!!! ramble's over -w-
Personally I think bleacher creatures got together over the summer after topher said that thing in the last episide. It'd be weird to believe that that whole time in season 1 he just had friends that weren't shown. I think he accepted his badness to the max, he probably would've thought he was above people like ivan at first but after the last episode of the first season it wouldn't be like that. Im unsure because I think the first episode is supposed to be the first day back so topher already knows them well oh my god what if they had summer school. Topher does the voting stuff and I believe he's basically the leader
OKAY MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS!!
topher knew lizzie for a while, not necessarily friends yet but they knew each other. lizzie and vlad have been best friends for a couple of years so she introduced vlad and topher. jackie used to run around and just talk to people and her only consistent friends for a while were ivan and van gogh who had a small friendship with topher start after helping him with his homework. over the summer van gogh introduced ivan and jackie to topher, vlad and lizzie and that's how they met
Here's things that annoy me regarding design lately:
1) on Netflix, you can't filter your list at all to narrow down what you might want to watch.
2) likewise on Netflix, the homepage sometimes randomly hides your currently watching row.
3) streaming services in general finishing a series abd then starting to play any old shit it feels like showing you and then you can't knock that shit out your currently watching row.
4) Spotify playing a trailer for a podcast and then jumping to a random episode. literary anything except episide 1. fucking annoying!
5) Tumblrs whole bag lately.
thank you for reading this is my grumpy old shit page follow for more complaints i habe lots
