Stuart Alan Jones!

[listersgirl]

Despite my best intentions, I did not go home last night and clean the bathroom. Instead I went home and watched another 3 episodes of The Wire. That show is eating my brain. Proof of my obsession can be seen in the hissyfit I threw when the disc stopped working at the VERY EXCITING CLIMAX of one of the episodes: after screaming at the DVD player, I spent the next 20 minutes attempting to trick the DVD into playing, before giving up and finding a recap somewhere.

Although I now love the show, and although people all over the place kept saying it was the best thing ever, I probably never would have gotten around to watching it if it weren't for one thing:

[A (likely inaccurate) transcription of an IM conversation with starfishchick yesterday]

SFC: Season 3 of The Wire is coming out on DVD
Me: Stuart Alan Jones!
SFC: What?

Yes, that's right, my love of Stuart Alan Jones (from the UK Queer As Folk) is so great that I started watching Season 1 of The Wire simply because Aidan Gillen joined the cast in Season 3.

Also: OMG Serenity trailer! September, where are you?

The disc stopped working? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

[listersgirl]

It's still watchable - it's just the last 2 minutes (or not even) of one of the eps. If it were worse than that I might have cried. :D

[starfishchick]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The Shield was great last night. More tonight!

Can't wait! Argh! Frickin' Star Wars moving my movie!

Indeed. It was supposed to be my birthday present from Joss!

Ever since I commented to Steph about Wash yesterday I've been thinking about that icon of yours and giggling.

"Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

I hate when things stop working at the climax!

Hee!

[listersgirl]

Yes, well. As soon as I wrote that I knew there'd be trouble. :D

Could a quick cleaning of the DVD help with the not-working problem? (Remember... damp cloth, rub from the centre to the edge. :)

[listersgirl]

I tried that. Many times. (Work, damn you!) I think there's an actual scratch, sadly.

Ah well.

Stuart Alan Jones!!!
