Day three of The Killing ( spoilers about that thing I don't like )

I want "How Sarah and Rick met" fic now. CKR was pretty adorable as Rick in the opening episode. And the joking about Candy Cane was cute. I want fic, with Linden being stoic and Rick getting past her armor. Apparently the novelty of Rennie the non-creepy boyfriend is REALLY INTERESTING, in spite of his brief screen time.

Moving on. ( spoilers for everything else in the episode )

Fringe: spoilers through 2.15 "Jacksonville" ( save me (from spoilers)! )

In other Fringe-related news, I'm writing Peter Bishop fic. Yes, really. There's already a Shakespeare reference. Possibly this is another sign of the impending end of the world(s).

I've had Fringe DVDs (seasons one and two) now for two weeks. They're still in their boxes. *sigh* So here's a quick wrap-up of what I watched before I actually got the DVDs.

( spoilers through 2.12 )

As for other TV: SCC 1.08 recap post.

We've started posting fics at bsg_remix. I need to look over notes from my beta-reader and poke at mine some more. Right now it's too... [redacted].

TV that isn't Fringe: This week's SCC rewatch post is now online.

I succumbed and started reading fanfic for Fringe. Observations:

1) BOLIVIA?! Really? (an Olivia Dunham/Peter Bishop portmanteau)

2) When exactly on the show was Peter brutishly dominant and Oliva timidly submissive? Also: "Oh Peter," the blonde agent whispered. Ahahahahaha, I'm not sure who the blonde agent is, but clearly she's not Oliva Dunham.

3) When you don't know the fandom well and don't have a handle on the authors there's a pile of fic to sort through to find the good stuff. (A small pile since this is a small fandom, but still...) This is made more difficult when trying to avoid (more) spoilers for the second half of the show. (I've watched through 2.04 so far. And I'm downloading 2.05 and it's taking forever. Why is this? Sometimes when I'm downloading a TV episode from Amazon, it's done in 15 minutes, but it's been over two hours so far and it's not even halfway done.)

4) Not really a fanfic thing, but when did Joshua Jackson suddenly become attractive? I'm bewildered by this turn of events. (It might be the change in hairstyle in late season one.)

5) I'm not sure why, but it irritates me to see 'Livia in dialogue. Yet I'm fine with the shortened Liv.

6) Apparently the season two episode "Jacksonville" must be all kinds of exciting. I think I've seen more fics tagged as spoilery for that episode than any other episode. Especially in the Olivia/Peter section of fandom.

Here's the Fringe fic I've found and liked so far. A little bit of everyone. Hm, except Nina Sharpe.

Feel free to link me to good fic that doesn't contain spoilers past 2.04.

TV post. If you're rewaching SCC, here's the 1X04 rewatch post. (Hah, stupid LJ didn't let me know about the comments there. Looks like I have some replies to make.)

More Fringe. Spoilers through episode 17 of season one, in particular 14-17. I think I have ( mental whiplash )

Okay, this week I need to rewatch BSG's "The Plan" one more time (and take notes) so I can send that disk back to Netflix and be ready to start on season two of Fringe as soon as I'm done watching season one on the WB's website.

Hm. I need a Fringe icon. Either Olivia Dunham or one of those cool black-and-white organic thingy pics they do at commercial breaks.
