This journal...

...will hopefully serve as a place to post some of my attempts at traditional art, random photos I sometimes take on my way to and from work, as well as some fandom wallpapers.

All my fandom work can be transformed. Parts of it can be used to create your own fanart - wallpapers, collages, icons and other graphics. I would certainly appreciate a link back to see what you've done with it, but it is not obligatory.

Fanart created for specific people on DW/LJ and elsewhere belongs to those users, and they are free to do with it what they want. I ask that you do not use it publicly unless you receive permission from them.

I spoke to winks about this show since she has seen it too, and she pretty much agreed. I told her, "...this is why there's really no point in talking details about something you haven't seen, is there? :) I read that he was electrocuted but didn't think he was that critical (I kind of envisioned a situation where the UA was given an order to kill off his colleague, loaded him up in the car with other goons but lead him out on his own and "shot" him, leaving him where he would be found)."

Lack of time I can set aside for watching/reading is making me less and less patient, which is terrible because there's no way a series can show everything it's got within the first couple of episodes. It took TNG at least two seasons to become really good, and I hate that good shows are not getting enough time to come into their own (Sarah Connor Chronicles, anyone?).

The premise for this show sounds really intriguing though, (I love the whole idea of undercover agents and the choices they have to make) so if it ever shows up here I'll watch at least several episodes to see how they deal with things. I'm not familiar enough with law enforcement to judge Carter other then what I saw on TV, and we all know how accurate TV portrayals are, don't we? (BTW, is there anything you can recommend as a good take on how law enforcement operates? My sister's been watching Wanted and she likes it.)

Oh and cop/soldier wives? I hate that too. I'm pretty sure that's not how realistic marriages are, and that they need to show conflict and such, but man, just once I'd like to see a marriage where both sides are fine with it.

That is exactly what I meant in my former entry..........
I do not expect they will show everything in first two episodes, but what I DO expect is something to hold onto as a beginner, e.g.
in M7 I was immediately drawn to it............and it was just the pilot and same with SGA. Of course, Flanigan helped it along immeasurably as did Close and Starke in M7.....................I still recall Ezra's word "day-bree" which sent me into fits of laughter...........
