leverage finale
our collective sounds of joy because it's awesome and then sadness because it's over can be heard from way over there! things i loved: sophie coming back to save the day in the end! parker parker parker, how so awesome! and also a little gay? she's a little gay right? i think so! all the children are sad because mommy left and daddy reacted by starting to drink again. oh nate, your children are falling apart can't you see? also hardison looking like a million dollars in that suit, and eliot just counting down the number of people on the boat. HOW SO AWESOME, SHOW.
i think my favorite thing about this show is how consistent it is when it comes to characterization. so many shows have this tendency to have all the men suddenly know kung-fu, or know how to use a weapon, and really that is just not the case. hardison is never going to be good at beating people up, and nate just doesn't feel the need to when he has eliot, and that's fine, that's how their team works. and i also love that the so-called muscle is an equal and valid part of the team (i mention this because of that shit angel sub-plot in s3 or s4? where fucking gunn suddenly gets a complex because he's not a science geek as if the numerous skills he picked up from being a vampire hunter on the streets are suddenly worthless? um, no no and no.) I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH OH MY GOD.
in supernatural/heroes crossover news, apparently the most discussed details of the entire fic are what clothes peter wears, and what hairstyle he has (emo bangs vs. not so emo bangs. vs. naked in a container crew cut), and also us coming to the conclusion that peter's bowlegged walk being identical to dean's clearly means they were always meant to be switched-at-birth brothers because HOW HILARIOUS IS THAT to see them walking down the street together, peter being one full frame size smaller than dean but exactly the same. no-one will ever question them being related to one another even though they look nothing alike! although to be fair sam looks nothing at all like dean either. and on the sam and nathan side, we spend an inordinate amount of time going to gq.com dressing sam up like a public-defender cum trust fund baby who loves his big brother but feels he needs to dress slightly edgier because nathan's a little to staid for him.
yes, we don't actually ever think about things like plot, or characterization, just clothes and hairstyles. you know, THE IMPORTANT THINGS.
also ru paul's drag race is the BEST SHOW EVER WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THIS EARLIER OH MY GOD!
