Uffish Thought

There are many things I love about Primeval:
1) dinosaurs!
2) hot people with guns!
3) how it killed off a very annoying character I hated!

So naturally, I encouraged the shit out of Lindsey when she decided to combine those things by killing off *another* character I hate, Horatio Caine from CSI: Miami, in this delightful little drabble she wrote in chat for me.

If you are unfamiliar with Horatio: watch this and tell that Horatio does not deserve to die. Terrible puns! Cosmic justice via giant prehistoric lizard! Becker facepalming! ♥

Also, apparently CSI: Miami has been canceled. Her timing is impeccable.

*cackles and reads again*

ETA: 100% improved if you picture the croc spitting up those damn sunglasses afterwards, which she told me about in chat but sadly did not fit into the ficlet. Heeeee.

Sure sign that you're addicted to a fandom #51: tracking down other roles played by the lead actors and watching them, regardless of quality or content.

I seem to be in that position for Alice - what can I say? Andrew Lee Potts is adorable. So far, I've committed the following acts of fannish pursuit:

1) Stranded

This TV movie had such a promising premise: basically, The Swiss Family Robinson, except with an extra child who gets separated from the family in the initial wreck and is subsequently raised by pirates. Jesse Spencer (now Chase on House) played the eldest boy, the girl who plays Ginny on HP was the (non-canonical) daughter, and Andrew Lee Potts got raised by pirates. Sounds awesome, right?

Wrong.

( How did it all go so wrong? )

2) Primeval

This British TV show started off as Torchwood-lite, but I'm getting kinda fond of it. inmyriadbits and I made it through Season 1, and Season 2 is shaping up to be loads better. Basically, holes in time are opening up all over and creatures are coming through from other times - dinosaurs, dodos, diabolical future beasties, etc. Our Team is responsible for saving the day.

( Season One was boring up until 1x04 )
