tommygirlMy mood has improved a great deal between yesterday and today. The lovely pictures of Jared helped muchly. That boy. Love him.
Good television also helped.
Have I mentioned this week how much I love Chuck? I love every character. They make mistakes and sometimes annoy me, but overall, every character is wonderful and I find myself caring deeply about them.
I still want Ellie/Captain Awesome fic, especially after this episode. They are so cute together and I really want more of them. Because Captain Awesome is so not the guy I expected in that first scene of the pilot - he seems to really care about Ellie, Chuck, and even Morgan.
I love how vulnerable Chuck is when it comes to Stanford and what happened to him there. I love how he overcomes that when he thinks the country/people might be in danger (and to get answers for himself, I know it wasn't completely unselfish) because he really does care. I love the dynamic he has with both Casey and Sarah.
Mostly, I love that what seemed clear to Chuck as a betrayal, was Bryce trying his best to protect his friend the only way he knew how. He didn't want Chuck to become embittered or dark, so he did what he thought he had to in order to save him and then lost his friend/roommate in the process.
And it makes you wonder why Bryce was taking that information and then sent it to Chuck.
I really hope the writer's strike doesn't get this show cancelled because I adore this show.
And guess what? After Chuck, my good-television-viewing high was not ruined! Heroes this week was good.
Episode 2.7
It figures the show gets better right when the writer's strike starts and threatens to keep us from getting the rest of the good.
I'm so freaking glad the Hiro in the past story is over and yet we get to keep David Anders as Kensei/Adam. I hated that storyline and found most of it to be boring, but I'm guessing it's supposed to have set up how Kensei/Adam became whoever he is now.
I really disliked how they took one of the show's best characters (Hiro) and put him in the worst storyline. But we got a glimpse of the Hiro that I love and adore when he showed up in Ando's cubicle. His little shout of glee and the smile! And then woe to hear about his father. But the bff's are reunited and that makes me happy.
I'm honestly not sure who is the good/bad guy this season and I do like that. I like that i'm never sure if I should be routing for HRG, Bob & the Company, or now Adam. All I know is Nathan better not die. I will not be a happy girl. I'm pissed off enough that there has been no Peter/Nathan interaction, but I'm trying to be patient by thinking about the reunion that could be.
I was a bit nervous with Nicki and the virus. I thought she would infect Nathan. Thankfully, it was just her.
I want lots of Matt/Mohinder fic set around this story. When Matt first shows up, when Mohinder wants to know if Matt's sure it's his dad (because he knows how that will upset Matt), and when Matt has to be the one to go up against his dad...write the fic, my friends! Write lots of it!
I loved Peter remembering his mother. I'm still damn curious to know what Angela's power is. I loved that Irish girl is gone for the time being because she irked me. And it seems like Peter and Adam have a relationship which...
Dear show,
Adam should have sex with everyone. That would be hot.
Love,
Me
And next week looks really great. We get to know where Peter was and what happened to Nathan. And how Sylar ended up with Candace.
If we get more episodes like we did in this episode, I'll be very happy with this show.
I'm also caught up on last week's Dirty Sexy Money. I love Brian. He rocks. I'm loving how all of this is playing out and I feel a lot like Nick, not sure who to trust or take a chance on. All I know is the show makes me happy and the characters crack me up.
