ETA: Continuing his bid to take over TV land, Mark Sheppard will do an arc on 'Chuck'. To add to Firefly, Dollhouse, BSG, Supernatural, Middleman, White Collar, and Leverage in his list of my favourite shows that he's guest-starred in. Watch him add Glee to the list next.

I shared a bunch of Christmas songs over at thesovereignty and savvy_elf's magnificent holiday music meme, and I thought I'd share them with you guys. I'm too lazy to upload them all in a zip, though, so take what you like!

Note: All of these are essentials, but I've marked the absolute must-haves with an asterisk*, so DOWNLOAD THEM.

If somebody were to put a Santa hat on this icon for me I would be eternally grateful. I don't know how to add a hat to a gif.

Also, hi, not dead.

ETA OMG:

ETA3 OMG OMG OMG!: GARETH DAVID-LLOYD IS COMING TO AUSTRALIA (to the suckiest con ever, but I have to go. IANTO!)

I went to the work Christmas dinner tonight, which was pretty fun, and hung out with my new friend WHO IS A GIRL. I have a female friend who isn't melissajane14 or her roommate! Yay me.

Favourite Christmas song right now: White Wine in the Sun, by Tim Minchin. It kinda sums up my feelings about Christmas, and it's for his daughter, and he's a comedian, so there's a couple of funny lines in the song, but mostly it's just sweet. Also, if you like him, check out The Adam Hillsong.

Supernatural advent calendar!

Emma Watson talks Harry/Hermione.

Three new Cherrybomb images. I like the look of this one.

Long-suppressed gay Star Trek episode comes out.

dryope has promo pictures from the first new episode of Battlestar Galactica - nothin earth-shattering. Does Tricia Helfer actually manage to look better every season, or is it just that I haven't seen her in a while? I swear, in terms of just a cast of women, no other TV show can hold a candle to BSG.

TV: The best (and worst) of 2008. #1 is, of course, Battlestar Galactica, then a bunch of stuff I don't watch (must see Mad Men!), then Pushing Daisies and THE MIDDLEMAN, MADE OF WIN, PEOPLE. Lost should've been there, though - the latest season was excellent.

TV.com's Top Ten Best Ensemble Casts - WAY better than SAG's. PUSHING DAISIES FTW. Also, Lost and Battlestar Galactica. I can't believe One Tree Hill is still on TV and Veronica Mars isn't.

BuddyTV's 50 Sexiest Men of 2008, including, but not limited to: Lee Pace, Matt Keeslar, Gale Harold, Taye Diggs, Naveen Andrews, Trucco, AWESOME!, JENSEN ACKLES, and Paddywhack, who once again beats out Jensen for the prize. Can't you just call it a tie?

Dr. Horrible stuff: Nathan interview (nearly inaudible), Why We Need More Dr. Horrible (he has NOT brought them all back, thank you very much), soundtrack review. Amazon estimates that my DVD won't come until January 26th. I WILL CRY. Also, tangentially related, singing supervillains! DRAKKEN! I love Kim Possible. Well, up until Kim and Ron hooked up, then it got weird. Also, baldie_troll would be happy to see GLaDOS :)

Hello from Sydney :)

I totally didn't end up having time to update before I left. I was busy and then Mitchell, Kyle and Melissa came over and I forgot :( we went to drinks at Kyle's place night before last, that was cool, but I ended up staying way too late and then driving Jamie home. I have no fandom news to report because I don't have time to check my flist, and probably won't for a couple of days.

Mitchell gave me a Battlestar Galactica comic for Christmas (among other things) and it's really good and interesting, but nobody looks like themselves. Buffy Season 8 is better, we're spoilt.

Uh, that's about it. ( Merry Christmas! )

I hope everyone on my flist has an awesome Christmas. Much love to you all :)

I watched the first episode of Psych tonight. It's really cute and fun. Dule Hill rocks my socks. I'm feeling very accomplished, I wrote out all my Christmas cards, although tomorrow I have to spruce up my resume and write a decent application letter for a job I really want :S Spent the entire day with Mitchell.

Chris Lowell in Atlanta Peach outtakes - fairly ordinary photoshoot, but there's a couple of outstanding, gorgeous shots.

OMG adorable kitty video.

Spoilery pics from Supernatural 3.09. I wish I were more excited.

Battlestar Galactica season 4 promos are hitting the web left, right and centre, so have them again! Here and here.

Another addictive EW gallery: The 50 Smartest People in Hollywood. OMG RL ARI!

I've been hitting up savvy_elf's Yuletide Music Meme all night. Mitchell was excited about the Arcade Fire Christmas songs. I'll put together a post of my favourite Christmas music for everyone later :)

Bob from MCR toilet papers Time Square.

Video of Jensen and Jared hugging at Paley! JDM is in there too.

So just yesterday I was going on about how I love the cast of Heroes and today I find pics of Hayden and Milo being adorable. I love them! Also, I edited the spam to add more pics.

I saw my first film for 2007: ( My Beautiful Laundrette )

You guys rock!!!

I shot past 20,000 visitors on Naveen-Andrews.net without realising it O.o after Christmas I have to see what I can do about fixing the place up, because I'm out of space AGAIN.

I just discovered that someone I liked has a Piz hate icon. I am unimpressed. I will no longer hold said person in high regard - not because they don't like him, because they have an anti-Piz icon. A mean one.

Marco's coming out story on Degrassi. It's precious and sad and gorgeous.

ETA: JENSEN ON CW CONNECT.
Q: What's your favourite thing about the character you play?
Jensen: The 1967 Chevy Impala. And guns and stuff. It's like a poor man's James Bond.

Jared & Jensen - What's in the box?
