TGIF ♥

Oooh, I'm so happy that it's almost weekend. Almost because my day pretty much just started and I still have a few hours to go before I can invade Starbucks and head home. But I'm already looking forward to two days of fun, I have the remaining 4 prompts for my meme to tackle and a lot of episodes to catch up with :D

But first I have a WC question :D Can anyone remember any scenes with Peter looking adorably lost? Like Neal did something and Peter was all "I give up"? The only thing that comes to mind is the facepalm in Countermeasures when Neal called El, lol. But can you remember more moments like that? The adorable Neal-induced "why me?" moments?

Other than plotting my next art projects, I've also cought up with a few things and of course I have to comment on at least two shows.

Flash, ZOMG :D 2x14 was epic and left us with a new mystery. The thing I'm most happy about is that Harrison decided to stick around on our Earth because I seriously cannot imagine this show without him ♥ And while 2x15 has revealed a very confusing identity of ZOOM, the big ? from 2x14 is still there. Who is the man in the iron mask? At this point the only thing we know for sure is that it's not Leonardo DiCaprio :P Hmmmm... E2 Henry Allen maybe? I'm not really familiar with the comics and I haven't read any spoilers so I'm just guessing :D

And what's with the two Jays? Who was the one working with Caitlin? Clone? Another time traveller? Gaaah, well, they have still 8 eps left to explain, lol :D

I also started watching Legends of Tomorrow but I'm not thrilled with it, I enjoy the characters, especially the Prison Break team, lol, but the whole idea and execution has failed to get me 100% on board. I think I'm just gonna stick with my beloved Flash, hee :D

And then there were The X-Files. Honestly, I have such mixed feelings about it. On one hand it was so awesome to see Mulder and Scully back together after a decade, they still rock :D But the episodes themselves - I dunno, there was something off about them. Well, one ep was a total WTF and the remaining 5... the stories just failed to get me involved, they were kinda meh and there was this constant cracky vibe which IMHO didn't go well with the serious bits. I mean, either you make it cracky all the way or you keep it serious. And of course the conspiracy introduced in My Struggle and concluded in My Struggle II needs sooooooooo much more explanation, hee :D Hmmm, with the cliffie ending, are they planning on making more eps? I'd still be watching it but more out of sentiment than the actual storytelling :D

Oh, well :D

I also started watching the Kennedy thing with James Franco - 11.22.63, two eps in and I like it :D After the first episode I thought it was gonna be all about the main character slowly working his way up to complete his mission, but after the second ep I think maybe it will be something like a case of the week + a little bit of main mission progress. If yes, that kinda reminds me of Quantum Leap (awww moment) and it's just a bigger incentive to watch :D

Tomorrow we have another SC episode, which mean funnies ♥ :D They shall be posted right on schedule :D

Oooh, of course! That's a good one, thank you :D I'm trying to get as many options as possible before I settle for one and start bulding my thing around it :D

Wasn't the episode absolutely EPIC???????? OMG OMG OMG Harry and Jesse and all the feels!!!!!!!! And Barry looking like such a lost Golden Retriever when the team found him.

King Shark didn't give me the same feels, but that was to be expected. I did love the Harry and Jesse dynamic, and how they both "abuse" Cisco. He's just born to be Wells-Bait (although officially, Jesse's last name is not Wells but Chambers).

I have a small commission for you. It involves Minions. And The Reverse Flash. Can we talk?

Also - Peter looked befuddled? How about the scene in Need to Know, when Neal says he didn't graduate high school.

And the scene in Pilot, when he goes downstairs and finds Neal on the couch with El, drinking coffee and petting Satchmo.

Or the scene in Vital Signs when Neal's drugged out of his gourd and confesses to Peter that he's the only one he trusts.

Or the scene in Under the Radar, when they are defusing the bomb.

Or the scene in Upper West Side Story when Peter finds Neal teaching a class.

(I can go on and on)

It was beyond epic, I watched it twice because I had accidentally added it to my playlist 2 times, lol :D

The confusing two Jays are confusing but I'm more interested in that man in the iron mask, of course now that the boys are determined to find a way to go back to E2 and hunt down Zoom, I'm counting on a very epic reveal with lots of feels, hee :D

And awww, these are all such epic moments, yeah, I think my problem is that there were so many, I can't recall the best ones when needed, lol :D Oh, the Pilot and the couch scene has potential :D Poor guy needs to look like everything about him is screaming please shoot me and put me out of my misery... but in a fond way, LOL :D

I'm adding all of this to my list, I'll copy all pics in one folder and then pick the one I like best, hee :D

And MINIONS!!! lol, no need to persuade me, it's a done deal :D In other words, shoooooot :P *hugs*

Hee! I think I've watched Escape From Earth-2 a dozen times already! So epic, much feels. It's just the perfect combination of Harry being awesome, E-2 Barry silliness, E-2 Iris awesome. Cisco Awesome. Killer Frost Awesome. Awesome all the way around!

From what I've read with interviews with the showrunner, Zoom is Hunter Zolomon, a comics baddie - and the guy that Jay pointed out to Caitlin in The Reverse Flash Returns. That of course doesn't resolve who "Jay" was, and who the Man in the Mask is. My theory is that "Jay" is a clone, that he never had speed and was sent to E-1 as a plant. To get the team to develop a speed drug so Zoom could milk him. His death was accidental - that Zoom was trying to come through the portal and didn't mean to shove his fist through clone-Jay's chest. Hence his statement "Well, that's a complication"

The man in the mask is the real Jay, who is Zolomon/Zoom's twin brother on E-2.

I'll email you the deets for the the artwork. It shoudln't be a difficult or time-consuming project at all. MINIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, okay, love all the info and it totally makes sense, I was wondering about that comment from Zoom that it complicates things... so yeah, the clone version works :D My brain feels a lot better now, lol :D

and YAY, MINIONS, just because :D

{{{hugs}}} I have the exact same TV pains, lol... too much of it for sure, I think I'm only able to stay more or less up-to-date with it because I watch most of the stuff while working... of course then I don't remember a thing from what I watched :P But I watched, lol :D :D :D

What about the moment when Peter and El crashed Neal's dinner with Rebekah and Rebekah says that Neal was just about to tell her how he became an FBI agent?! It Peter getting mad at Mozzie when they are searching the hotel room together.

Scenes where Peter is at the end of his rope are actually pretty common, I've noticed.
In The Portrait Neal flirts with a woman and Peter looks pretty exasperated. That's 10 minutes in.
He's pretty exasperated in 'Withdrawal' when he has to meet with Mozzie in his weird ways. Both 12 minutes and 46.
I think a really good one would be 'Copycat Caffrey' when they realized the person was copying Neal. It was about 5 minutes into it.
'What Happens In Burma' when Peter reluctantly shows Neal the jewels that the FBI confiscated. That's at about 14 minutes. Also in the same episode when Mozzie thanks Peter for the supplies to make the fake jewels - about 17 minutes in.
'Forging Bonds' when Peter told Neal what his nickname was before he knew his name - 8 minutes in.
Right at the end of the scene 17 minutes in 'Countermeasures' when Neal asks for the plates from the US treasury as well as the next scene.
'Power Play' 7 minutes in when Elizabeth makes Peter agree to Neal and Peter changing roles. Right at 10 minutes, then less than a minute later. 20 minutes in when Mozzie is teaching Peter to pickpocket. It's not Neal, but he's still pretty exasperated. God, it's so cute how Neal imitates him all through that episode - moving his hands like Peter, putting his hands on his hips instead of putting them in his pockets, trying to answer Peter's phone :-).
'Neighborhood Watch' at 22 minutes.
I'm sure there's many more, but that's all I have for now. I barely looked at season 3 and haven't looked at 4, 5, or 6 at all. I hope this helps!

I still have to finish this week's Flash (watching at least part of it now), but OMGosh, YES!! Soooo much going on, totally, and I love it more all the time. Hubby's usually pretty good about watching such things with me, but Flash just doesn't draw him in for whatever reason. I think he's not very good w/multi-dimension stuff anyway -- we saw Christopher Reeve in "Somewhere in Time" when we were in college, and he *never* "got" it, even when it was explained to him. LOL Not that he's in any way not bright, but just -- that far into "fiction" doesn't work for his brain. (He doesn't *read* fiction much, either; I got him to read a Star Trek novel when we first got married [one based on an episode he knew, and everything, so it'd have something to draw him in]. He **stopped reading** with, like, 2-3 chapters to go!! How can a brain DO that??!! The girls and I got him to read the HP books, but that's pretty much the entirety of fiction he's read in the 30+ years we've been married! LOL!!)

I think "Legends of Tomorrow" is taking a bit of time to kind of find its footing/really draw us in. IMO, it's still sort of "setting up" some things, as much as anything. I'm going to hang with it, though, b/c it interests me just enough to keep going. Flash and Arrow (and Supergirl, too, in some ways, though maybe not quite as much, since the gist of her story is so well known) took a bit of time to really take off, too, in some ways, so I'm willing to give Legends a bit of time to really get me going, too. :-)

I haven't watched the 11/23/61 show yet, but I'll probably give it a go at some point. Some friends recommended the book a few years ago, and I bought it on my Kindle app... and haven't read it yet (school just almost killed my desire to read actual books for pleasure! :-P).

Can't wait to see what you come up with for Elr with Minions and Reverse Flash! Sounds awesome!! :-D

ETA: I forgot to add: Awwwww!! Quantum Leap. Always one of my favorites <3

Awwww, yeah :D You know, it just makes me so happy that most of my flist has watched and still appreciates the same shows as me :D Cuz Quantum Leap = ♥ Hee :D

And lol about hubby, but hey, who cares about understanding the multidimensional naturel of universe when he actually checks the TV guide for MMXXL and invites you to watch it again :D :D :D :D :D

And I agree about Legends, I'm still watching but for now it doesn't work for me the same way Flash does :D Now Minions are gonna take over the verse for a bit, LOL :D It's gonna be an awesome project :D

sherylyn on February 27th, 2016 06:43 pm (UTC)

I love that, too! And Quantum Leap is still just one of the most awesome shows ever. Even if NCIS: New Orleans weren't a good show, I'd probably still have to watch it just for Scott Bakula ;-) And ya know, I just thought: someone oughta do a QL/WC crossover. Can you imagine the possibilities????

LOL Yup, he definitely won major points for doing that! Of course, he watched the first one long before I did -- he will seriously watch whatever's on at times! LOL!! -- but that's okay, since he doesn't care about me watching them, either! LOL!!

LOL Ooohh, Minions. They are small but mighty ;-)

kanarek13 on February 27th, 2016 06:56 pm (UTC)

OMG, a QL/WC crossover *thud*

This is genius, we could have Sam leap into Neal to save him, maybe at the end of s6 Neal died for real because he overdosed on the detrotoxin so Sam tries to prevent that, awww... or just anything with Sam saving Neal :D

Aaah... if we had that idea 2 or 3 years ago, someone would have written it... but I still might do something artsy :D First I need to get rid of that report and then I need to give our boys some nekkid rubbing session with El watching, lol... and then the foursome... and Minions... *ponders* I wonder if I can ask for a week off at work, lol...

sherylyn on February 27th, 2016 07:20 pm (UTC)

LOL Ooooh, I just love that idea, totally!! I mean, what could be better than Sam popping into WC?? *melts*

And yay art!! No matter when/how it happens, it needs TO happen!! LOL I think work should give you a week off anytime you want it ;-)
