*____*

This entry is a lot of pictures and little to no substantial thought, I REALLY WANT TO MAKE A TUMBLR JOKE but I am restraining myself.

INTERNET I KNOW IT IS MY JOB, and not yours, to care about Will/Alicia but. BUT.



HE LOVES HER YOU GUYS

ENOUGH TO PLAY THE BLACKMAIL CARD

AND I HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS

...that's all. Except actually it's not, HOW GREAT IS ANIKA NONI ROSE?! I love that she is jumping in. And I forget the actresses' name but I hope Will's date at the banquet signals an end to these awkward 20-year-olds because it is so sleazy, yuck. Also I love this blonde lawyer and I want her around ALWAYS but her return maybe wasn't quite as much fun as I had been hoping, she was great but not as great as she was in her season last year.





The West Wing one was great(ish, BRADLEY WHITFORD'S MOUSTACE RUINS EVERYTHING, including my stupid ~this picture could be of JOSH AND DONNA ALL MARRIED~ fantasy because no it couldn't, Josh would never go there) too but I could not find a decent scan of it anywhere. Also it felt so incomplete, because it was too complete not to be complete, I guess? It was fine that most of the Alias cast was missing at fine that Will & Grace lacked a Jack and a Karen, but you can't have CJ and Josh and Abbey and Zoey and Charlie and everyone but not have Sam and Toby. And Leo.

(There was this bit in the interview section where Bradley and Janel were talking about Josh and Donna's future, and how Josh was "working in the think tank" and then Brad interjects that Donna was too, "until the kid came". REALLY?!?! Who sees Josh and Donna that way?) (Ugh, probably Aaron Sorkin.)

I didn't scan these, they're from here and here.



THEY ARE BOND GIRLS!!!!! CHEESY BOND GIRLS. I never thought they would top ~*SNSD IN SPACE*~ after their last single, BUT UH. THIS MIGHT. WE WILL SEE ONCE THE MUSIC VIDEO IS OUT.

UGH I LOVED THE INTERVIEW WITH VICTOR AND JENN. IT WAS SO CUTE I COULD VOMIT.

OH MY GOD RIGHT. I'm not even sure it's hyperbole to say "BEST CELEBRITY BFFS EVER".

[identity profile] cambridge.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
OMG THAT GIF!!! SO CUTE, I literally went like this

I want to watch We Got Married but I'll probably never get around to it. I still haven't finished the original married couples yet!

adkgmdkmg THOSE VICTOR + JENN PICTURES ARE SO GREAT. Look how happy and relaxed they are together!!!!

OH MY GOD ELENA I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS WEEK'S EPISODE, and it's ridiculous because everyone else thought they were so great in last week's when they were sappy. This week they were fighting. I DON'T KNOW WHY IT BROUGHT ME SO MUCH JOY. I'm really fickle though, half the time I am like "STOP IT YONGHWA YOU ARE BOTHERING ME" and the other half I am like "OH MY GOD GET MARRIED FOR REAL *___*"

We Got Married is so great though, FAKE MARRIED COUPLES WILL NEVER NOT BE WONDERFUL. Someday I will catch up on Victoria and Nichkhun, because she is adorable and he is adorable and I LOVE HIS (speaking) VOICE. A LOT. Sometimes I think it would be fun to watch the originals but... let's be honest, IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

I KNOOOOOOW, omg I can't believe it's like, a teeny photoshoot stuffed into the later pages because it is THE LOVELIEST THING.

THERE ARE SO MANY HEARTS IN MY EYES OH MY GOD SPY DADDY ♥______♥

also what is going on in that cap of the good wife, is his arm in front of her??

ALSO BOND GIRLS *___*

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I KNOOOOOOOOOOOOW AND SPY BABY, ALWAYS TOGETHER.

Um oh god I didn't realize how complicated this was until I had to explain it but basically she's in a deposition because they think she leaked something for political reasons (her husband is running against Cary's boss right now) and so Cary is interrogating her and he wants to have it on the record that she got this key bit of information from a previous case from her husband (she did) and as soon as she has to answer the question FOR REAL Will was like "NOPE, THIS LINE OF QUESTIONING IS OVER, and btw I have hardcore dirt on your boss, DON'T MAKE ME DRAG HIM IN HERE." It was great.

WHY AM I NOT WATCHING THE TEASER RIGHT NOW, GOD

[identity profile] goldenmelisande.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
YES OMG THEY ARE SO DARLING THAT I ACTUALLY CAN'T HANDLE IT, IT'S LIKE STARING AT THE SUN.

.....that cap is perhaps giving me some feelings. idk.

BECAUSE GOD IS CRUEL, THAT'S WHY

The Good Wife is kind of a procedural...

[identity profile] goldenmelisande.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
but it isn't shitty.......

seriously tho maybe when i am not uh...otherwise occupied (lolololololol) i will watch it! I AM FEELING SOME FEELINGS RN, IDK WHERE THEY CAME FROM BUT THEY ARE THERE.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
LOLLLLL oh my god, HOW OCCUPIED IS OCCUPIED? I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE NOT QUITE REVEALING THE DEPTHS OF THIS TO ME, since when do we have secrets.

IT IS MAYBE POSSIBLE THAT I AM INTENDING TO MARATHON SEASONS 2-5 AND HAVE IN FACT ALREADY MADE SIGNIFICANT HEADWAY IN ACCOMPLISHING THIS GOAL.


.....i'm almost done with s2 already, god help me.

LOLOLOLOL, part of me wishes I could judge you, but uh. WE BOTH KNOW HOW MY DAY HAS GONE.

[identity profile] irishmizzy.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
GARBER AND JGAR ARE MY FAVORITES. That article was amazing, them talking about her wedding, I had legit hearts in my eyes.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my god I think I read it at least EIGHT TIMES and each time my delighted hand gestures were MORE EMPHATIC, NOT LESS. IT IS SO GREAAAAAAAT THAT ALL OF THAT EXTENDED OUT OF THE SHOW, why are they perfect.

[identity profile] modernthirst.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
I DIDN'T LIKE THE REUNION PHOTOS BECAUSE THEY WERE ALL SO BASIC!! Reunion photos have been a longtime fantasy for me and I wanted them to be super high concept and semi-parodic in-character where-are-they-now pictures.

AH AH AH THE GOOD WIFE WAS SO GOOD HOLY JEEZ. If I was jizzing over Alicia in her dress and makeup at the end I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT THAT GUY FELT. Except his date was so awesome and funny and calm! They were onscreen for two seconds and I started liking them right off the bat! Oh and the blonde lawyer is Meryl Streep's daughter, did you know? She's so good. I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER I CAN TAKE CARY AWAY FROM THE FIRM THOUGH! I want him back.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
IT SEEMED LIKE THEY DID THAT WITH SOME OF THE 80S MOVIES THOUGH!? Idk I only half paid attention to those, I think I've seen like one 80s movie ever, so I might be wrong. They should have gone way more out with the whole thing though and dedicated the entire issue to it, WHY EVEN BOTHER WITH OTHER ARTICLES.

I KNOW RIGHT. I liked his date too though, she was such a nice change from that girl in the really awkward watching-people-across-the-street phone call scene from a couple of episodes. Oh and no I didn't know that but now that you mention it DUH, ALEX, because I have definitely seen her before. BUT ANNA HE IS SO COLD RIGHT NOW, in this completely sad/understandable way but I agree, I want him baaaaack.

WAIT OOH HAVE YOU BEEN MAKING GOOD WIFE ICONS?!? Thank god, there are legitimately ZERO GOOD ONES, it is the actual worst.

OMG I KNOW, HIS PAIN IS MAKING HIM SO ICY. Matt C is doing such a good and complicated job with it. But it hurts me.

Oh and re: icons, not really! I just made a few when I first finished S1. But you can have any of them you want:

I LOVE THE GOOD WIFE. I need to get off my behind and watch this week's episode.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
IT WAS A REALLY FANTASTIC EPISODE, you neeeed to.

[identity profile] ambiguousreason.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
UGH OMG JGARN AND VGARB, MY HEAAAAAAAART. THEY NEED TO WORK TOGETHER AGAIN

I CANNOT BELIEVE NO ONE HAS GIVEN THEM THE OPPORTUNITY, YOU KNOW THEY WOULD JUMP AT IT

[identity profile] thecolorbetween.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
We've already talked about The Good Wife, NOT THAT I'M NOT ALWAYS IN THE MOOD TO TALK ABOUT IT, so I will just say, yessss, JG and Victor were so great. West Wing one had potential, and it was good, it was, but I agree that it was weird people were missing.

(Also, I think Tamara/Tammy/Elizabeth Reaser is going to be around for awhile, and I think she could very possibly be the first step in the next stage of Will/Alicia's development. MAYBE.)

If they weren't going to have (close to) everyone, they should have just done the Bartlets, or Josh and Donna, or the girls or something small and manageable. Except none of those involve Charlie, hmmmm.

LOL CLAIRE YOU ARE ALWAYS SO SPOILED. (He looks uh, nice there.)

Elisabeth Moss felt a little out of place to me, to be honest? Just because she was never a series regular, even though that's really just me being technical.

I'm sorry! I do know she's going to be around for awhile, but the second part is more me. One of the Kings said something about how her, but it's not based on a strict/explicit spoiler about Will/Alicia. Just...I would never intentionally spoil you.

YOU JUST DESCRIBED MY FEELINGS ON THE GOOD WIFE, except I'm still all !!! about Wendy running for State's Attorney beside the things you said, I DID NOT EXPECT THAT AT ALL even though I was totally hoping she'd be back. I'm super thrilled. And it was nice to see Elizabeth Reaser (Will's date!) and I hope they redeem Perky Blonde Lawyer one of these days, she was hilarious last year, but I don't want her to be Alicia's new s1 Cary. Anyway, I am totally not a big Will/Alicia shipper - I like them, but that's all - but when he played the blackmail card!!! HEARTS.

And sometimes I can't believe how pretty Jennifer Garner is, damn.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I DIDN'T EITHER!!! But I wasn't sure if I was a good measure of that, I rarely see things coming. And ugh I agree, I'd love to have Perky Blonde Lawyer show up again regularly but not THAT regularly. She's great but there is enough going on right now.

I KNOW, her face is basically perfect.

ACK, YOUR POSTS. I recently -- and yes, I mean after being on LJ for almost seven years (WHAT? HOW AM I THIS OLD?) -- discovered this funky thing called FRIENDS FILTERS and I'm kind of kicking myself for not setting them up sooner because HAHAH IT'S SO MUCH EASIER TO SEE THE POSTS I CARE ABOUT WHEN THEY'RE NOT LOST UNDER ALL THIS OTHER STUFF I DON'T CARE ABOUT. Like a million and one entries from the ONTD for international soccer. I...DEK.

ANYWAY, I HAD A REASON FOR COMMENTING. Basically this:

INTERNET I KNOW IT IS MY JOB, and not yours, to care about Will/Alicia but. BUT.
MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD. I've missed your special brand of wit, I have. Also, reading your thoughts about The Good Wife makes me so inexpicably happy and I don't even watch it (yet). I heard about those EW photoshoots but hadn't seen any of the pictures...Anything Alias makes my heart hurt with nostalgia (in the best way). I think I saw TWW one but I agree with what Anna said about them being so basic! It's like, IDK, I could Google image search everyone and photoshop their most recent photos together if I just wanted them all in one place, LOL? I WILL SAY THOUGH THAT BRADLEY WHITFORD'S MOUSTACHE IS THE WORK OF SATAN HIMSELF. I hate it.

There was this bit in the interview section where Bradley and Janel were talking about Josh and Donna's future, and how Josh was "working in the think tank" and then Brad interjects that Donna was too, "until the kid came". REALLY?!?! Who sees Josh and Donna that way?
HAHA, it's so funny you say that because I'm pretty much the fluffiest person known to man, and even I just...Don't go there with them. But I also have this weird fixation with just suspending my favorite characters in time shortly after their shows end. I love the idea of them...Staying the way they are? It freaks me out to think of 10, 20, 30 years down the line, what they're doing and with who. I just want Josh and Donna to stay forever where they were when season seven ended.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2010-10-22 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I WOULD LOL AT YOUR LIFE, but I think someone had to like, TELL ME TO USE FRIENDS FILTERS. I knew what they were but how would they ever apply to my life?! HOW DUMB DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOU GET OVER THAT THINKING HUMP, god friends filters are great.

Farah oh my god it's SO WEIRD, they're like, the main canon ship and NO ONE LIKES THEM EXCEPT ME AND CLAIRE. I mean that's an exaggeration, plenty of people like them fine but there's liking them okay and then there's ~*~liking them~*~. YOU KNOW HOW IT GOES, I am sure. Anyway I agree that the West Wing's were super basic, BUT I REALLY LIKED THE ALIAS AND WILL & GRACE STUFF, and tbh I did not care about anything else. I don't think. Maybe I did. Who knows.

THEY ARE LIKE. I don't know. I could always see marriage but I could never see kids, and marriage would basically be the same as non-marriage. But ugh I don't know the idea of DONNATELLA having to stay home and take care of Josh's kid after she had finally figured out what she wanted out of life and gotten it, I JUST DON'T LIKE IT. I do not.

I keep meaning to ask, btw: is your current lj "name" Farah in Arabic?

Farah oh my god it's SO WEIRD, they're like, the main canon ship and NO ONE LIKES THEM EXCEPT ME AND CLAIRE.
THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. I clearly just need to get off my ass and start watching so I can be in the loop and ~*~like them~*~ with you. I just added them to my Netflix! I'm gonna make it my goal for November to watch season one. EVERYTHING ELSE I HAD ON TAP BE DAMNED!

But ugh I don't know the idea of DONNATELLA having to stay home and take care of Josh's kid after she had finally figured out what she wanted out of life and gotten it
UGH, I TOTALLY AGREE. It just doesn't seem in character, to be honest. I don't know, maybe way down the line, maybe, but even then, it's really hard for me to envision a world with babies and strollers and long nights with lots of crying. I just...Don't see it.

I keep meaning to ask, btw: is your current lj "name" Farah in Arabic?
Yes! It is! LOL, tryin' to keep things ~interesting~, you know how it goes.

Ugh this news delights me to degrees I cannot fully express in words!!

The problem with "down the line" is that they're already kind of there? I mean they're far from walkers but they're not in the prime of their youth, if kids are going to happen kids have to happen fairly soon. It's just hard to see it happening.

TUMBLR JOKE I APPROVE DESPITE HOW VERY PRO-VISUAL-LACK-SUBSTANTIAL-THOUGHT I AM. EH. (Oh I meant to comment on your entry about the whole thing but basically it would've been I TOTALLY GET YOU and some other things that are inconsequential SO.)

HI DARLING, IDK IF YOU GOT MY TWEET (lol I am so lame) I HOPE YOU HAD A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY BY THE WAY THOUGH IT HAS BEEN LIKE, A WEEK NOW.

I AM SURE WHAT YOU SAID WOULD HAVE BEEN INTERESTING, but man I understand because god DAMN replying to comments on that post got tiring. Sometimes having actual thoughts is exhausting.

OMG I DIDN'T, I would have seen it eventually but I am glad you said something, because I am so bad at twitter (and my @ replies are always depressing because like 10% of them at most are for me, most of them are all HAY I'M @ALEXANDRA 'S HOUSE RIGHT NOW, or like, for that british singer Alexandra Burke). THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
