FULL REVIEW of the Dollhouse pilot. Massive spoilers, one would assume. I won't read it, though, because Dollhouse is still months away and I don't want to ruin it for myself this far ahead of time so that by the time I see it, it will be stale.

Oh, hey, so, check out what [livejournal.com profile] outoftime found that I didn't know about because I stopped watching Gilmore Girls before Luke and Lorelai broke up and destroyed my sould: Rory left to go on the campaign trailer with Barack Obama. CRAZY. As for Barack news, here's what's REALLY important. The Entertainment Weekly interview, natch. [livejournal.com profile] nentari! M*A*S*H!

Meanwhile, just to remind everybody that not everything went right on the fourth, Changed America Still Hates the Gays. I didn't think Proposition 8 wouldn't go through, but it's still a huge disappointment, and one that hits close to home with all the work I did earlier this year here in the ACT that ended up getting destroyed.

New clip from Milk, which is now more relevant than ever. I cannot WAIT to see this one.

Okay, the recent Grey's news has brought out the ugliness again and I feel I have to retaliate. Brooke Smith's character may have been horrible, her character arc may have been crap, she and the stunning Ms. Ramirez may have had all the chemistry of a wet rag. I don't care. They fired her to get rid of the lesbian arc, which makes it WRONG. If they were committed to equality, they would have either let her character have a natural arc that ended organically (not orgasmically) and they would keep Callie's options open.

On a lighter note - Robert Pattinson: wants to be Bella, is still hilarious.

There are some awesome Supernatural icons here.

First of all, I liked her as a character, I thought she had chemistry with Callie and I was very interested in seeing how this would play out. I feel cheated. :(
Second of all, did you see the reaction of Patrick Dempsey on "Ellen". Awesome.

Did I mentino I love Pattinson?

I did see him on Ellen with his prepared speech and air of awkwardness.

I love him too :D

Hehe, I knew that M*A*S*H was Obama's favourite for a while. It just shows the man has good taste. :)

i am so angry at greys. and no one i know in rl seems to get it. "they aren't anti gay', said my cousin, 'they fired the guy who played burke!'
'her character sucked anyways'

omg! thats not the fucking point right? they fucking wrote the story arc in the first place. she didn't go to them and say "you need more lesbians and here i am!"


and i thought the moment where she discovered her gayness was beautful. in a rough and weird sort of way, which worked because her character was rough and weird

They fired Isaiah because they couldn't NOT fire him after all the commotion he caused.

The whole Prop 8 thing is so depressing and infuriating for me, and all my friends. Michelle and I immediately started doing research, and we want to be as involved as we can in the fight. It makes me crazy that human beings are treated like shit because there are people who essentially think it's gross to be gay.

As for the Grey's stuff, from what I've read, it seems to be more about the lack of chemistry and lack of interest in Hahn as a character than about the lesbian relationship, especially since Shonda said Callie will continue to explore her lesbian side, and Melissa George starts next week as a bisexual intern. And if all of that is a cover from Shonda because the higher-ups are homophobic? Well...that seems to be a huge issue in America right now, obviously.

It's depressing for me, too, because I can't do anything about it.

See, everything I read suggested that they were scrapping the whole arc.
