Checking out new shows

[gekidasa]

Been kind of busy and tired, and when I’ve had time I’ve been playing around with WP3’s custom posts and taxonomies (because I’m a geek like that). But at any rate, I’ve watched several things in the past week:

Moyashimon. With Channaka and Kato Natsuki. It was cute and cracky and amusing. Kato Natsuki really knows how to work the leather… in spite of her germ-infested toes. ¦D

Unubore Deka. Watched basically because Kaname Jun is in it. Ikuta Toma was a plus, too (I’m not into JE, but I like him). Anyway, it was hilarious, so will keep watching. Also? Kaname Jun. In pink pants. Dancing and grabbing himself. Need I say more?

First two eps of Burn Notice. I actually had not watched before, figured I should. It was a lot of fun, although so far Michael is the only character I’m really loving. He’s enough, though, and Fiona did grow on me in ep 2. Which means I have 3 seasons of catch-up to do.

White Collar season 2 premiere (okay, so this is neither a new show, nor new to me). It’s great to have Marsha Thomason on as a regular, loved Peter and Mossie’s secret meetings in the park. Didn’t love the greenscreening in the Let’s Hide Tiffany Thiessen’s Pregnancy scene. Loved Neal, obviously. Also, I think it was a good setup for the season, and I’ll probably make a longer post about it.

Covert Affairs. So far? Really promising. I already love Annie (I admit, at least in part because she has a cat that looks like my Otto). Chris Gorham’s Auggie is probably my favorite element of the pilot. Will probably make a longer post about this one too.

I’d love it if you left comments over there, although it’s fine here too! :D

Re: DID I HEAR ANIKI?

Ah yes. Kageyama being a little ho. :D

My personal canon is that Kagema is a meteor orphan, who went to a Zect-run orphanage the purpose of which is obviously to recruit impressionable young children. So he was among many training to be a Zectrooper, and then Yaguruma was looking at candidates for Shadow, and Kageyama was all I WILL BE IN SHADOW, and everyone laughed at him because he was like 15 at the time and a cute little thing that no one believed could make it into the elite, but Yaguruma said, let the boy try, and of course right there he earned Kageyama's loyalty and adoration. And even though he was young and not the best by a long shot, there was a determination in his eyes that made Yaguruma pick him! :D/

I want this to be canon, can it be canon? : DDDDDD I can totally see this happening.

It's canon as far as *I* am concerned. :Dv

Also. I think Yaguruma was not without reservations. He could see great AMBITION in Kageyama too, and a part of him felt that wasn't very compatible with kanzen chowa. But he just couldn't help himself, and chose Kageyama despite those reservations. \:D/
