Quick post.

This mention is probably pointless and a little redundant, since my flist just more than doubled yesterday because of this meme, but I figured I'd still do my part in pimping it, anyway.

candlewaxdreams was getting a little tired of all the apparent VM fandom hate toward Kristen Bell - hate that completely baffles me and piques my curiosity as to "why?".  So she created the friending meme found HERE. If you want to chime in, or see who else still thinks KBell is one of the greatest things since sliced bread, go on over.

And in an unrelated random shout-out (to a show that I've regretfully mentioned only in passing here before), Eureka continues to be a little more awesome each week, in a totally fun and easy-to-watch way.

The last three episodes kind of cemented my love of its humor and pop-culture references, because (a bit spoilery - so skip this part if you avoid that):

-- Two weeks ago, Carter, while investigating strange happenings to certain individuals in town, comes across Global Dynamic's lab of lunar rocks from the moon, with large green crystals growing from them, and stops mid-sentence in his denial of alien life: "There's no such thing as-- oooh, Kryptonite!"  Freakin' sweet.

-- Last week, when supposed supernatural/divine occurrences were popping up, a townsperson brought up the notion that Eureka could possibly be situated on a hellmouth.  That's just made of awesome.

-- And this week, the episode had heavy reminiscings on one of my favorite BtVS episodes ever, "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered". Carter gets to experience a little of the "love mojo" that Xander had to go through, as the entire female population was (inadvertantly) sexually in his thrall. I smiled through the whole thing.

So, sci-fi can be silly and not take itself too seriously, while still also totally entertaining.

That's all for now.





Kristen Bell is awesome.
