Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer...

From goldenusagi:

Give me a character/ship and I'll answer in the comments with five (or however many) of my unpopular opinions for it.

( That End of the Year Fandom meme that's been going around.... )

I'm currently playing with my new Christmas toys. Also I've been kind of shopping the after-Christmas sales and I bought myself the Dollhouse S2 DVD because hey, uber cheapo, how could I resist that? Plus it has the Epitaphs comic inside, which is pretty nifty. \O/

Now I'm off to watch the final episodes of Caprica, be prepared for some squeeing ahead.....

++ By marathoning Dark Angel I revisited one of my favorite pairings. Now obviously the main ship of the show was Max/Logan, and yeah I can see the potential for Alec/Max too. However my pairing during the run, and still is to this day, is Zack/Max. I know I may be in the minority, but there was serious chemistry between them. It was even implied on the show at certain times that Zack looked at her more than in a brotherly way. In the episode "Blah Blah Woof Woof" for example, and even in a later episode when he tells her that there was no possible way he could ever forget her. Obviously it was seen as one-sided given how protective Zack was over Max, but had the show gone that route I wouldn't have been surprised.

And because this is a rarepairing there are hardly any fic about them, unfortunately. I remember reading one long ago, way back when ff.net allowed NC17 stories on their site, but other than that no dice. :(

++ ( THAT SUPERNATURAL PAIRING MEME THINGIE )

++ I watched the premiere episode of Haven yesterday, and it's pretty good. It was kind of shaky in the beginning, but once the episode started moving with the mystery it really found its footing and I really like the characters towards the end. It has much potential, and the ending gives that suspenseful "something more is up here" kind of feel which I personally like. So yeah. I like the main leading character, she started to really hold her own at the end as well. Since this is the starting point we'll see how the rest of the show goes but as for right now, I give my approval stamp. Now I gotta download Eureka because I needs my James Callis fix. ;)

Though interestingly, I had a dream recently that Misha Collins was to guest-star on Eureka, except he would play Castiel who mysteriously got transported into that universe...and he was there searching to buy himself a fedora similar to what James character wears as seen in promotional pictures. Just goes to show what my brain conjures up, and how much I really want Misha and James Callis to do something together. Hehe.

Because I am being spammy and a sheep and apparently bored, and all the cool kids are doing them, therefore I must be a fandom meme whore too:

MEME #1: Name a character from one of my fandoms, and I will tell you my top 3 moments or scenes (or at least 3 of my favorites) of them.

MEME #2: Name a fandom, and I'll give you the scoop on at least three of my unpopular opinions related to that fandom.

Okay, so I lied. That wasn't the last post before the holidays. There's this fandom meme I took from glassnowdrop, and figured what the hell.

( On the ninth day of Christmas, the Fandom Gods gave to me... )

So this'll be the last post as the days before Christmas are arriving, and when I say I'll be MIA let me clarify. I'll be checking in on LJ and commenting every now and again, but I won't be making any new posts until after Christmas which will be flooded with RL updates and fandomy-things. I have some theories regarding my current fandoms that I've been itching to write out, including some essays and possibly a recs post. So, it'll be fannish posts post-holiday season. Whee!
