– Dollhouse (S2) – after the crapfest that was the beginning of the show, season two was a welcomed change (with the noted exception of the first three episodes which were the same self-contained-story crap I hated the first time around) having an over-reaching theme and truly becoming serialized drama with good twists and turns. The story finally evolved and enriched the fantasy of dolls and their effects, the consequences we foresaw in Epitath One. The cast remained unchanged and their performances were so-and-so (although Dushku remained the weakest link) with the notable exception of the last episode, which, in typical Joss Whedon fashion, broke my heart in part because of the outstanding performances – Kranz, Penikett, Gjokaj, Tudyk & Williams -  I’m thinking of you. The story wrapped itself in a nice little bow having had this opportunity by being cancelled in early December and Joss managed to endear Dollhouse into our hearts. While it remains the worst Whedon-esque show in history – with Angel and Firefly on your resume, you probably have to come to grips with the fact you’ve reached your peak – it’s still a pretty good show and worth a showing or two (although next time I’ll probably just start from 2×04).

– Exams be over. This post is scheduled to be published around the time I finish my last exam and head towards the airport – and instead of spending the night there with Tami Hoag (A Thin Dark Line), I’ll be crashing at Mishu’s, since my flight got delayed and there’ll be a stop-over at Lyon, thus leaving somewhat later. In about 24 hours I’ll be arriving at BigBro’s place in Paris so no posts in the meantime.

– DARPA: BSG was cool. Here’s $6 million, make it happen.

– Turkish Girl Buried Alive For Talking To Boys.

– Dear 24, you suck, I’m leaving you.

– RIP Justin Mentell.

We Hope You’re Helpless

DOYLE: It says ‘rats’. Our rates are low, but our standards are high. When the chips are down, and you’re at the end of your rope you need someone that you can count on. And that’s what you’ll find here. Someone who will go all the way, who’ll protect you no matter what. So don’t lose hope. Come on over to our offices and you’ll see that there’s still heroes in this world. Is that it? Am I done?

10 years since the magic started, 5 years since it all came to an end. I miss you guys so much…

– Ha! Malicious internet my ass…

– NOOOOOOOO! Damn you all to hell! I loved the guy!

– Dupa mai bine de un an de asteptare, s-a lansat, in sfarsit, Harper’s Island. Povestea pare mai slaba decat ma asteptam, dar distributia face toti banii. Boys, adjust your TiVos.

– Povesti bune la ultimele episoade din Dollhouse, spre deosebire de idioteniile stand-alone din primele cinci episoade, dar prestatiile “actoricesti” sunt tot la pamant. Joss, how could you?

– Seriously? La sfarsit de septembrie, din fericire, uitati cu totii, si astazi, cand sub absolut nicio forma nu trebuie si nu vreau sa stiu (ca, hey, imi afisez ura si dezgustul doar zilnic), primesc o duzina de mesaje si sms-uri de felicitare. Are you fucking kidding me?

– Alex petrece o saptamana (19-26.04) la o baza militara din Colorado Springs (student exchange crap, that lucky drunken bastard), asa ca eu ii tin companie noului sau XBOX360 in primele sale doua saptamani de viata. GOW2, RE5, SF4, SH5, prepare to meet your maker. Whoo-ah.

– Taxe de intoarcere in tara AKA numai in Romania e posibil: confirmi de trei ori un pret la telefon cu reprezentantul, numai ca a doua zi curierul sa-ti ceara triplu; la casieria unui policlinici esti trimis la supermarket, sa schimbi banii, ca ei n-au rest; recomandarea doctorului e o farmacie care se dovedeste a fi singura care nu are niciun produs din reteta ta; ceri un marker special, pentru inscriptionat dvduri, si primesti un Schneider la 4lei care se usuca in 20min, iar la intoarcere in magazin auzi ca produsele nu se schimba; platesti pentru curatat cartusul numai ca mai tarziu tu sa sufli in el pentru a elimina bulele de aer; confirmi de doua ori ce acte trebuie sa aduci, numai ca la al treilea telefon, care e in legatura cu altceva, afli ca mai trebuie sa aduci ceva.
