. . .Torchwood, apparently.
But I'll get into that in a second.
Today, I finally got around to watching the first four episodes of the new season of Robin Hood. It is excellent, as I expected it to be. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Thoughout the first episode ("Sister Hood") I was picking up all sorts of strangly creepy incest vibes from the Sheriff and his sister. I say "Strangly creepy" because incest does not bother me. Has never bothered me. And I don't know why it bothers me now, because (in an evil villainish way) both the Sheriff and his sister are rather attractive people. In other news, when the sister died, I shed a little tear. She could have been a great villain. Alas! *dramatic pose* And I loved how she kept calling Robin "pretty boy". My thoughts exactly. (And they had him tied up and everything. Kinky.)
Let's see, episode two ("The Booby and the Beast"). . . eh, not much to say there. I can't remember that much about it. I liked the blind guy, he was rather cool. And after the first couple of minutes, I really warmed up to the german dude. He was rather charming, though I didn't much like Marian when she was with him. And I don't know why, as I quite like the idea of Marian and Robin in an open relationship. Which may have as much to do with my "slash-Robin-with-half-the-male-characters" thing than anything else.
Episode three ("Child Hood") is the episode I was referring to with the Torchwood thing. Because as I'm watching, it's all dramatic, and it's great, it's really, really great. And then, this kid, whose name I can't remember, is talking about one of this friends, whose name I also can't remember. And he says "I let go of his hand". And I missed about three paragraphs of dialogue while being hit with an "Exit Wounds" flashback. F***. Other than that, kid beating the Sheriff upside the head with a two-by-four, A+ from me. Rock on, little dudes. Also, Guy of Gisborne walking around shirtless? Yeah, I'm watching that. What can I say, he IS hot.
In episode four ("The Angel of Death"), I rather liked the interaction between Will and Luke. Especially when Will took the rope back and told him to run. I DIDN'T like the rather evil look on Will's face for over half the episode. He was seriously creeping me out. I was totally cheering when Robin "drank" the poison. Which sounds completely heartless, but it's Robin freaking Hood, there's no way he was gonna die. And I really, REALLY want to kill Alan.
I have tried, unsuccessfully, to watch Bob & Rose online. Guba sucks, and will not load. But I really, really want to see it, and will try again. Otherwise, it's off to the entertainment store for me and my...oh, wait, I'm broke. Nevermind. I'll just beat my computer with this convenient cricket bat for an hour or so...
I have, finally, gotten around to watching some more of Life on Mars. (The UK version, I dislike American remakes. Yes, I am American. I don't really like us.) I watched episodes two, three, and four of the first season, and discovered that I cannot see John Simm onscreen without drumming. (AKA, the Master's drums, from DW.)
As episode two started, my first reaction was "Wait, what? You've got half the male cast onscreen shirtless, and bloody John Simm has to wear a shirt? WTF?" I mean, honestly. I got over it, especially after seeing him in handcuffs, and finally shirtless, in episode four. He is really rather adorable. I want to hug him.
As I type, the newest episode of Doctor Who is loading in the other browser, and very shortly I will watch it. Then I will go to bed, as it is getting rather late and I have school in the morning.
