I fell down one of those rabbitholes (as one does) by spontaneously deciding to re-watch Law and Order: Criminal Intent. And I knew I shipped Goren/Eames, I knew I loved them both and I knew I had always considered Criminal Intent to be the best L&O. But since it's been years and years since I actually watched the show, I clearly forgot just how MUCH and how DEEPLY I felt these things, because I am feeling them HARD now and it's taken me a little by surprise.

( Like, can we talk about these beautiful idiots for a second? )

Long story short: this is my current obsession and I think I'm going to live in it for a bit.

As we all must know by now, the next Doctor on Doctor Who will be a woman. (Yaaas.) This is coinciding with Moffat finally leaving. I always said I'd give Who another go once he's gone, and I am going to be true to my word and see if the new showrunner's any good!

In order to ease myself back into it, I thought I'd get to know the new Doctor's actress a little. She's done lots of stuff but Broadchurch was on my netflix so it was easiest to watch and I'd heard good things about it, so I decided to watch. And OMG am I glad I did. I LOVED IT!!! I mean, new Doctor aside, I really loved the show. (I mostly forgot that she was the reason I started watching the show after about 2 episodes.) I would say it's basically a Brit version of The Killing, which I adored. One case/story over a long period (multiple seasons), lady cop that I LOVE*, unlikely partnership that scratches my itches in all the right ways.. YES GOOD THANKS.

I'm really sad they only did 3 series of Broadchurch. :((((( And Hardy/Miller is my ship flavor of the moment now.

*so my love for Ellie Miller is just like, okay, she's so optimistic and wants to save the world and she endures unimaginable pain, such a specific kind that very few people have to go through (trying not to spoil here), but she comes out the other side and she's STILL optimistic and STILL upbeat and STILL so empathetic and that's her best feature THAT'S what helps her solve crimes THAT'S what makes her so crucial to Hardy, so irreplacable, and no she's not perfect by any means, but her humanity is what gives her the edge and helps her see the things he misses - that and her CRAZY CRIMESOLVING WALLS (my favorite) - that helps her connect to victims she fights for, and she doesn't let Hardy's gruffness get to her, she's just like oh shut up, she's amazingly strong to be there for the best friend that hates her, and I just???? LOVE??? HER?????!!!!! Here's a convenient list of Miller's 10 best moments ahahha my laughter devolves into sobbing because I love her so much.

HERE HAVE A RANDOM PICSPAM I MADE b/c I love Hardy and Miller so muh-huh-huch

Current Mood: accomplished

We had to revisit a challenge in

tvrealm, and I decided to do another top 50. This time, because I'm in a really nostalgic mood, I chose to do my favorite episodes of The X-Files.

WHY THE X-FILES? OTHER THAN THIS IS AN AWESOME SHOW? (AND I JUDGE YOU IF YOU CALL YOURSELF A SCIFI FAN AND YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT.) Because The X-Files was groundbreaking tv. It's inspired a lot of the great shows today, at least in part: Lost. Bones. Castle. Fringe. (Hell, everything JJ Abrams has done that isn't Star Trek, really.)

I just. This show. It's an amazing specimen of tv. It's my favorite show ever, and it will always live in the number one spot. At times it's funny, at times its sad, or beautiful, or silly, or dark, or scary, or just honest and true. It's a love story, a story of friendship. Of course it has its shitty episodes, like any show, but its amazing episodes are out of this world. The world of the paranormal is merely its setting, not its plot. It's ultimately a story about people struggling to find meaning.

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THE X-FILES, THE END, NOW SCULLY WILL DEMONSTRATE MY EMOTIONS.

So without further ado..
