Nico's Journal

I am one of the few people not watching (or interested in watching) Torchwood. I have seen more Pretender though, and here are my reactions to the next three episodes, or more exactly, two and a bit.

( 301: Crazy )

I really should post these the day after I watch them, because my memory gets a bit hazy on details, especially if I've seen more episodes since these. I shall try to remember my reactions at the time. :-)

( 216: Silence )

I didn't much like the last ep, but this one was awesome, which more than made up for it.

( Life goes on )

I suspect there's some sort of unwritten rule that every US series has to have a Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Valentine's Day ep. I've actually enjoyed all the other Pretender holiday eps (unusually for me), but this one was underwhelming.

( Chocolate hearts )

A good episode, despite the petrolhead stuff. ;-)

( Brothers )

This ep was one of the French ones (subtitles for everything but, weirdly, dialogue unless that's turned off), but the credits seem to have gone back to the old music and scenes. I liked the faster, more actiony ones.

( What a blast )

My first Pretender fic! It's set just after episode 208: Hazards, so if you haven't seen that far, do not read any further. 950 words that are a little darker than I usually go for.

( Shirt Sleeves )

I actually watched this ep on Friday, but I've had a busy weekend out, and a migraine for much of today. :-P

( Twinkies = twin kies )

It's very hot and humid after the rain yesterday--about 85%--but I did manage to watch another ep yesterday. Let's hope there's more rain for the garden and for me to close all the blinds and watch more. As it is now, the cicadas are so loud (though I love their summery noise) I'd have to turn the sound up.

( Fun with Jell-O )

I watched another ep last night. None tonight because 1) Greg's back and 2) it will be Lost, his major fandom. However should the long dry spell break and we get some rain, I will be watching more during the day; I hate shutting the blinds on a nice day.

( Rotten at the core, I mean Centre )

Greg is away again (at his aunt's funeral and seeing family) and, being fed up with him never getting round to watching The Pretender, I decided to watch it alone. I'll see another one tonight. :-) I'm also going to watch them on rainy days, but we haven't had one of those for a while.

( Unkind cuts )

If you like any, claim, comment, and credit. :-)

( A round dozen )

I made Greg watch another Pretender ep with me, pointing out the surfeit of Top Gear I'd been subjected to lately (look, the guys are funny, but I can only take so much stuff about rich bastard cars--about two minutes to be exact).

( Take a shot )

And I've watched the next one!

( Mothers and sons )

I meant to post my comments on this episode much earlier than this, sorry. I've been distracted by kittens and Greg being home all the time. :-)
