It's Not Easy Being Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOM! YOU'RE ANCIENT. I'm totally buying you a walker for your next birthday, you old, old man.

I went to Karaoke at Cube tonight and sang 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go' and 'Footloose'. I love 80's dance music. I can't dance to the techno crap they play now. It was really fun! Plus we won some bar money (drawn from a hat). I was still tired from the weekend, though, I swear I haven't been right all week.

Guess what I discovered tonight? The director of my favourite movie of the year choreographed 'Once More, With Feeling.' AWESOME.

Okay, in more amazing news from another genius creator, JK Rowling will be auctioning off a hand-written copy of Beedle the Bard. I really hope an actual fan gets it instead of a stupidly rich collector who won't share.

Heroes: Origins has been pulled. I think everybody's being way too impatient about season 2 of Heroes. Muhney said he didn't like it as much either. I don't know, I'm still willing to give it the benefit. I'm sad about Origins being delayed/pulled, I really was looking forward to it.

New buckshotwon videos: Anders Neville (they are so freaking CUTE!) and another I hadn't seen before, Sleepy Mi.

Awesome Masi picspam (the first one is the CUTEST THING EVER) and enormous colour-coded Dom picspam.

Plastic!Winchester Theatre 3.09 - Halloween special! Currently tied with the Metallicar-is-a-girl episode as a favourite for me.

If anyone wants to hear the report of the third of four crazy Kangaroo Killers/Muhney weekenders, it's up in three parts:
one two three (with pictures!)

Stunning BSG icons.

You know Fucking Fox's latest crackdown? It also applies to 'Once More, With Feeling' singalong showings. That just BITES.

Some Storyline Requests for a Serenity Sequel. Eh, I don't really get it. I'd be happy with whatever Joss comes up with as long as Simon gets naked.

Nathan Fillion: possibly one of the most awesome people to ever have existed, Y/Y? He was born to be famous. And the cat! No Firefly mention though, boo, Ellen.

Zachary Quinto in TV Guide for all you Sylar fetishists.

The very pretty Chris Pine may play Captain Kirk and other Star Trek casting news. Is this official? I wanted Jensen :(

Very cute Jensen Ackles interview. Jimmy Stewart rocks. His whole thing is so Texas manly bullshit, but it's kinda adorable.

ack_attack, always with too much time on her fortunately entertaining hands, has created a new picspam: So what would happen if the characters from Battlestar Galactica were somehow introduced to the characters from Lost?

Chris Lowell? KILLS ME DEAD. Preview for Private Practice 1.03 and a tour of the set with Chris in which he continues to be as awesome as he was on the set of Veronica Mars, though nobody handles him quite as well as Kristen. He's so freaking hilarious. And attractive. And supple, apparently. There is nothing mean to say about him.
AND I TOLD YOU HE LOOKED LIKE ZAC EFRON.

So mellafe is doing this meme, '10 Things I Love About...', and I like it so I think I'm going to steal it and do it whenever I feel like it.

Starting with my favourite fandom right now:

BAH. My week-long cold randomly got WORSE this morning, leaving me feeling completely ill, AND I haven't been paid this week which means I have $1 in my bank account. I have to work and go to uni tomorrow and I really don't want to do either.

The only thing that made me feel better today? Lazy cat on a treadmill!

Did we all hear the deeply disturbing Lou Pearlman news? I mean, we all joked about it, but...it's all true. *shudder*

A bit of new Chris Lowell stuff for Private Practice.

Zach & some other Heroes cast members bowling. More with a Masi focus over here. kerrsmith2306 also posted some Heroes cast pics.

Amber will be in Long Island on October 10 and there's Dexter stuff happening here in Oz this month. Wish I could go.

Pretty new BSG & Buffy icons at thirdhex.

Nifty spoiler for Supernatural 3.05. It's cute, I think.

I love all the Matt/Mohinder slash. Raising a child together? Instant pairing!

Today has sucked and I only have had half of Heroes :( I'm downloading another copy, hopefully it will be the full one.

I had dinner & a movie with the squishy and Mitchell tonight, and that was super fun, even though poor Mitchell is sick and therefore even whinier than normal. I WANT TO SEE HAIRSPRAY AGAIN SO BAD. Also, I am developing a cold.

I've been in a really good mood for two days running now.

For fuck's sake, people, it takes me quite a few hours to catch up on Heroes and I'm not even waiting for it to air here. PLEASE stop spoiling me!

Speaking of Heroes, adorable Quinto-centric cast icons, new behind-the-scenes season 2 pics (and more), and spams: Mid-res rare shots from mata090680 and an ENOURMOUS Quinto-centric one via canadian_turtle.

There's a few gorgeous but kind of one-note Buffy icons over here.

There is a RIDICULOUSLY adorable interview with Chris Lowell about Private Practice here. The first and last questions made me LOL. I adore him, ok?

TAHMOH! Tahmoh will be at a Creation event in Sacramento this weekend! He's replacing Jamie Bamber. Sorry, Bambi, but I'd be happier with TAHMOH.

So today I saw two movies:

I just found three of my cousins on Facebook (and they're all brothers.) That's awesome! Also, I got a new phone today. I named her Boomer, because the one I lost was called Six. Boomer's a better phone but less 'me', I think. Today I wrote a 2000-word essay in 2.5 hours, which kind of amazed me as I usually work at a rate of about 500 words an hour. However, as a result, I missed Lost Radio this morning! Boo. I didn't actually have time to listen, but still.

My sleep pattern is totally fucked right now, though. I am exhausted during the day most of the time and then can't get to sleep at night. It sucks royally.

I also watched two made-for-TV movies: ( Wendy Wu, Homecoming Warrior )

I'm going to start working on my Lamb Week spam soon, but in the interim, does anyone have a particular spam they'd like to see?

Mmmm, the Y Tu Mama Tambien kiss. I should watch that again this weekend.

THE HEROES CAST BEHIND THE SCENES OF AN ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY PHOTO SHOOT. THEY ARE SO CUTE, I CANNOT COPE. AND THEY SPOIL US! Uh, and not just in a 'we are so lucky' sense. Kristen's innermost thoughts tripped over the chair!

You know how Supernatural keeps sucking me back in? It spits me out again with promos like the first three at this link. The other three are OK. Character spoilers, if you don't already know.

Piz Dell news on the Private Practice front. I really think Chris Lowell should just change his name to Piz. It is the most awesome name ever, and it suits him.

First, the good news:

CHRISTIAN KANE IS GOING TO MUHNEYCON. HOLY CRAP THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER. I HOPE HE SINGS!! A:DSFJHSD:FLKDSF CHRISTIAN KANE AND MICHAEL MUHNEY. I WILL DIE OF HAPPINESS.

Bad news: I lost my phone. It sucks royally and I'll have lost a bunch of numbers. I'll also have to spend MORE money each month on the phone bill if I want to get a new one. I loved that phone and I was being conscientious when I lost it, turning it to silent so I wouldn't disturb other movie-goers - I can only assume it somehow fell out of my pocket either at the cinema or in the lift or something.

I HAVE TO GO TO A COSTUME PARTY THIS WEEKEND AND I WISH I HAD THIS COSTUME. I WANT TO BE TRACYYYYYYYYYY. Why am I cursed with living in Australia and having no money? WHY? There's also Edna, Link, Motormouth Maybelle and Penny Pingleton costumes, 'Property of Link Larkin' jewellery and Hairspray t-shirts. They are SO AWESOME.

If you love Chris Lowell (or hell, even just like him really, it's not like this will take a lot of effort) you should go and participate in his online birthday scrapbook. dekolette is setting it up and I think it's adorable.
There is also a new scene from Private Practice up at YouTube which Chris's character Dell is in for about half a second. But it's a pretty half-second!

Creation salutes Firefly & Serenity in Burbank, California on the weekend of the Muhney con. Good guests.

Torchwood DVDs will soon be released. Come to me, my pretties.

Dylan warns of Cylon invasion. LOL.

For BSG fans, Trucoospam, closely followed by Tahmohspam.

Prince Caspian poster. Ooh, so pretty.

Big ol' spoilers on Indy IV from some hapless extra whose career is not looking so solid right now. Oops. There's also a little Indy tidbit here as revealed by George Lucas, but it's nothing we didn't guess already.

I already linked to the article in question, but I love the Whedonesquers' responses to the Barrowman-kisses-Buffy-stars article.

Random non-fandom things that entertained me today: the meteorite that made people sick (alien invasion?) and a coconut crab attack a rubbish bin. Don't click on that second one if you have a weak constitution.

Uhura's been cast for JJ's Star Trek. I'm glad, I like her.

In continuing Heroes-at-the-Emmys news, caps of the cast of, er, Heroes at the Emmys.

Interview of a new Heroes cast member, not one of the big-name ones.

MOAR ADRIAN PASDAR VIDEOS! ZQKB and Emmy Night. A lot of people have been complaining about that special new girl hogging all the attention, but it seems to be a serious case of Mutual Admiration Society going on between her and the pre-existing cast. They love her, and she loves them, and nobody's acting like she's stealing the spotlight or anything. She's pre-established, too - I'm sure we'll find out more about the others as they progress on the show. Be cool, sodapop.

Finally, Masi Oka at an event with that other new big-name Heroes star.

Little Dom in 'I Sell the Dead' mention; not terribly exciting, but hey, Dom news is good news. There's a little more over here.

Pretty multi-fandom icons.

fizzyblogic gave me a letter for this meme days ago, but it took me this long to think of good ones: ( 10 things I love right now that start with the letter M! )

You know what, I know I'm biased but I think my wife has been looking extra stunning lately, and since I am having RL lack-of-love-life woes I think some pictures of her would do me some good as well as the rest of you. I don't know what's going on with her eyes in these pictures (is that fashion? I'm not good with fashion. I make faces at things people where while my fashion-conscious sister exclaims 'that's hot!'), but that dress is gorgeous.

I don't know how people can go out every night. I went to Cube the last 2 nights in a row and I am completely and utterly exhausted. It was fun, especially last night - it was Cube's second birthday, and Slinkee Minx played live. They sucked, but it got a lot of people in, which was fun. Going to Cube always leaves me feeling horny and lonely, though.

In other news, I am only $10 off my half of the Muhney convention ticket, YAY! Then I just have to save for the fun spending, and I'll be set. Once I've paid for the ticket I can at least relax a little.

DOM AND BILLY! BILLY AND DOM! TOGETHER!

These pictures of Mena Suvari are kind of amazing.

Jensen Ackles on the CW Source. He looks good, but tired (already!) and talks about some stuff we know already and some stuff we don't. He doesn't give a whole lot away about season 3.

A LOLcat that made me LOL.

Jon Stewart's hosting the 2008 Oscars!! YAY. Who the hell maligned him? He was the best thing about the Oscars he hosted.

A surprise guest give Stephen Colbert a sign that he should run for President. Hilarious.

Torchwood icons. No Ianto, though.

Every Heroes spoiler for season 2 that you could possibly know is listed here.

Heroes cast at a pre-Emmys thing, and Kristen Bell too :D I REALLY hope Heroes wins some goddamn Emmys. The cast is so utterly gorgeous, they're all so sweet to each other and pretty.

The results of the Tubeys are up, reminding me of the enormity of Heroes' popularity.
Memorable Moments And Thingies (possibly my favourite)
The Biggies
The Montgomery Burns Awards for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence (Piz came second in most unwelcome new character. Idiots.)

More awards are around, though, and my favourite is txvoodoo's Alter-Emmys. You can also vote in bana76's Emmy predictions poll.

Battlestar Galactica vs. the FCC from Robot Chicken. LOL! I want to see Robot Chicken, and not just because of my long-standing crush on Seth Green.

The Hairspray cast recording songs. Zac is ADORABLE, Elijah Kelley and Nikki Blonsky are fantastic, and John Travolta is awesome.

So speaking of which, my review of ( Hairspray )

You know what I only just realise? The Mayor from Buffy has the same name as one of Australia's most hated television personality: Richard Wilkins. It explains a lot. Also, I have been having the worst period ever, and yes, you all needed to know that.

Go vote at Television Without Pity's 2007 Tubey awards. (Is it wrong that I love a LOT of the 'least favourite character' options? TEAM PIZ DAMMIT. It's not right that he's an option for that and not 'favourite character'. I looked for him and everything!)

You can also vote in this random poll with a bizarre fascination with Transformers!

Results of the Tater Tops awards! YAY MASI. Actually, a lot of the stuff I voted for won (and I swear BSG would've won 'biggest shock' if it had a larger audience.) Dom only lost to Kristen Bell by 1% for 'most missed star' so I count that as a tie :p

There's been bandom wank today, with this post about how stagegay is BAD. I gotta be honest with you, I never would've gotten into My Chemical Romance in the first place if I hadn't seen that video of Frank kissing Gee on Conan. It's not like stagegay is new, and besides all the pro-gay arguments: bands get a little overexcited on stage and do whatever the fuck they want.

In the continued awesomeness of the Heroes cast, Grunberg tears it up. LMAO.
More Heroes, singing the praises of Christopher Eccleston.

Supernatural bits & pieces: Jared is, like, totally buff, OMG first episode promos for season 3!!! and info on the girls, with shots of them in character. Bela >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ruby, Y/Y?

John Barrowman interview in which he spills all (SPOILERS for Torchwood, by the way). I love that he will just answer everything.

Dom moving to L.A? Worst picture of him ever, by the way - I don't like that event, he was too skinny.

corellianjedi made adorable Buffy icons.
