"I know that Adrian gives so much to me, and I'll be damned if I'm not going to give that back to him." - Milo

Ooh, and another one:

"It'd be really bad to lose Adrian. Regardless of whether or not Nathan's character has run its course, losing Adrian on that show for me, personally, would be a tragedy. It would be a different show." - Milo again. (and DAMN RIGHT.)

This is a good issue of the Heroes magazine.

Uh-oh. I watched SHUT UP AND SING and now I'm at least half as much in love with Natalie Maines as I am with Adrian Pasdar. I can't decide if I want to snuggle her, or toss her on a bed and ravish her (though, the way she is, she'd probably get me in a headlock and make me squeak for mercy if I tried... which wouldn't be all bad, really). She is just so cool and so cute and she's my hero and I am just so overjoyed that those two weirdos found each other. Hearty hearty heart hearts.

That, combined with a recent buckshotwon comment where Adrian asks someone to "do him a solid" (and not post mean cuss-word laden posts on his YouTube) and I am tempted to run down to L.A. and ask Milo if he'd be willing to share that awesome family with me. No wonder he wants his own so much; they sure do make it look wonderful. Surely they're willing to adopt another one? I'm potty-trained and I have my own income!

"Do me a solid." Oh, just quit being so rad.

Well, maybe not the best. No, who am I kidding? THE BEST. When I found this out I was so excited I had to go out and walk around so that I wouldn't just start screaming with joy right here in the office.

( Cut just in case you consider casting news a spoiler... )
I am EXPLODING. I am so happy I have a headache now. God, I love this show.

I finally watched Dirty Deeds and I now really want to own a copy. That movie isn't even bad enough to be worthy of mockery - it's lukewarm American Pie, if it has to be described as something - but the Milo hotness is off the scale. He doesn't pass as a teenager in the slightest, but then again, neither does anyone else in the movie. Instead he's just the coolest guy who ever lived (and yes, the loaf-of-bread scene truly is worthy of legend) and the entire world either loves him, or bows at his feet and acknowledges the fact that he pretty much owns them. (It's pretty wack, and one of the major flaws of the movie. An invincible protagonist is boring. I call it the "Manchester United" problem - I have no interest in watching Man U. football matches because they always win, and that's boring.)

I don't know if this was the beginnings of the Sexual Objectification of Milo Ventimiglia, or whether it started before that; sure he's pretty ferociously cute in The Gilmore Girls, and he's wearing tight thermals etc., but he's not really put out there as an irresistable sex monkey the way he is in Dirty Deeds. Then again, I have never seen Opposite Sex, so... I'm sure there are more faked orgasms in that, too.

But wow. What a gorgeous boy he is. Absolutely tiny (I think the only people shorter than him in this movie are supposed to be freshmen, and I think they're being shot at a downward angle to make them look shorter - and they're rarely on screen at the same time he is), bowlegged as all get-out, driving a slobber-worthy convertible (... I don't know... early 70's model Mustang? My car-fu has failed me), floppy-messy overlong hair, and a superior smirk permanently affixed to his face. The special features on the DVD provide some additional interview footage, and I would love to have Milo saying "fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck" as my ring tone. Gee, I wish they could cuss on Heroes; Adrian's tasty when he cusses, too, and I would absolutely love to hear an obscene tirade coming from Randall Bentley as Lyle...

It's been a trial of ... well, OJ like proportions... :)

But I now have in my hand the Collector's Edition Season 1 DVD set. Thank you, compassionate co-worker with a car.

Now I'm going to be tragically broke for a while... let's see if I can avoid complaining about that. :) Heh... I doubt it. Judy Garland was born to sing: I was born to kvetch.

Still... oh... I almost don't want to open it. I've been waiting for this for so long.

OK, this is what's going down - there are different hosts for different episodes, which are supposedly "their favorites". (Which... SQUEEEEE)

Here we go:
Monday, Aug 13 Ali and Adrian - Collision
Monday, Aug 20 Milo and Hayden - Homecoming
Monday, Aug 27 Masi and James - Six Months Ago
Monday, Sep 3 Greg and Jack - Company Man
Monday, Sep 10 Sendhil and Zach - Parasite (YES! YES! YES!!!!)

OK how much does this rock! (but sad that they don't team up the BFFs Adrian and Milo - and they inflict Greg on Jack yet again; maybe Jack will actually spin-kick Greg in the face this time, like he seemed to want to do during their NBC.com episode commentaries. Bless Annoyed!Jack... It's enough to make me slash'em. But ZACH AND SENDHIL?!? They know! I swear to God, they know!!)

Thanks to this post at Television Without Pity... goddess bless the Media thread...

The rumor mill is on fire (and by the rumor mill, I mean that Spoiler Queen Kristie on E!) about Zachary Quinto locking down the role of Spock in JJ Abrams's planned Star Trek remake.

Right the hell on Zachary! (Even though... I really wish they weren't remaking this in the first place; pleeeeeeease don't wreck the first TV show to ever save my life, and I'm not just talking about Star Trek in general, I am talking original recipe Trek, Kirk Spock Scotty Chekov Bones Uhura Trek with the Gorn and the Horta and the space hippies and this is a total Herbert move, people!... please... don't wreck it. I have no doubts that Zachary can rock Spock, but who is going to try to be James T. Kirk or Leonard McCoy? If they are not as brilliantly and immaculately cast, the whole movie is going to fall apart, and a whole generation of people are going to grow up thinking that Star Trek sucks.)

I just ran across something in one of the earlier "Ritual" stories that would make the absolute GREATEST fic.

Holy crap, I've got to write it.

Damn you plot bunny.

The next day: But now that I've thought about it for a night, it's going to be insanely hard to do. I'd love to write it but I don't have it in me right now... so be patient...
