Sometimes fandom makes me smile.
Mar. 16th, 2011 05:06 am++ TRICIA TWEETS BTC 17TH PRECINCT PIC! Includes herself (as a brunette!), James Callis (♥) and Jamie Bamber (who is wearing a familiar tan coat...) THIS CAST IS LOVE. ♥
++ For all Nikita fans: If you want Nikita to stay on the air and be renewed, please comment here explaining why so TPTB know what the viewers want. Though honestly, even if you aren't watching the show just say they should keep it regardless, because we severely need more kickass, independent women on network television and there's been such a huge lack of them. More importantly, female leads who are Asian hardly are ever seen, plus the show is pretty wicked and amazing in itself. The CW doesn't have this kind of diversity on its network, it's time to change that and make Nikita part of its lineup and successful, too. The demographic shouldn't be just about melodramatic teen shows. It's for self-sufficient assassin women, as well. ;)
++ Okay, so I don't really watch Glee. I've only seen the pilot but as soon as it went to series I wasn't that wild about it as a whole, as it was completely different in the vibe than how I originally thought it was going to be plus all the controversy/drama surrounding it left a bad taste in my mouth. So I decided it just wasn't the show for me. However, there is one specific thing that has been grabbing my attention lately, because everyone is squeeing about it, and after last night with that scene, it's totally undeniable.
( EVERYTHING IS GAY AND RAINBOWS AND NOTHING HURTS... )
Now if only they got Dean/Castiel to do something like that I would die with utter happiness and forgive all the horrible mistakes the show has ever made, for real though. CANON GAY, IT MAKES ME HAVE WARM FUZZIES FEELINGS INSIDE.
I also want to say that, personally, I'm very proud of Darren Criss. I may not be a fan of the Glee in general, but Darren has really moved up from being Harry Potter in Team StarKid's A Very Potter Musical to being a regular on one of the most popular shows on network television right now. It's sort of like watching him grow up in a way, even though it wasn't that long ago, lol. So I'm very happy for him getting this kind of publicity, and also for playing a gay character on a show that airs on FOX, a network that is notorious for their rather conservative views particularly on homosexuality. So, major kudos not just for Darren's success, but for the show for actually giving us something worthwhile for LGBT youths who watch the show.
