→ Interesting possible Friday Night Lights spoiler.
How is Friday Night Lights doing ratings-wise on DirecTV? -- Misti
Ausiello: I don't know and I'm too lazy to research it, so let's go with "spectacular" and "record-breaking" and move on to the real reason you're here -- spoilers. Someone's gay, and he/she is coming out in tonight's episode.

I still haven't seen the last two episodes, but who wants to take bets on young JD McCoy?

→ TSCC. Holy crap! I need to watch that again! Oh my gosh! I only have a couple of comments.

.ELLISON - I squeed my butt off when that trunk opened and it was him. Such a hero moment! Just seeing him fighting side by side with all of them for a short while was very good. And I loved him in the church, praying. He really shined in this episode and I'm just beside myself with fannish squee over that fact.
.CROMARTIE - Is he really gone for good? I'm not so sure!
.DEREK/CAM - Face off! I liked that. There needs to be more fic for them.
.THE MEXICAN CHASE SCENE - That was just brilliant and I loved seeing it from different perspectives. Fantastic and fun and that was a cool-ass car!
.JOHN - I'm loving the development of his character and sadly, I really like Riley. I hope we see her again!
.SARAH - Oh my god, the trunk thing with the soda can? After seeing that, I kept rubbing my palm all day! It gave me goosebumps! The scene when she destroyed the chip was great. I'm sad she sent Agent Ellison on his way though. No, Ellison! Come back! Sarah/James? Anyone?

→ Got my [livejournal.com profile] yuletide assignment! And it's for a fandom I haven't ever written! (I hope that's not giving away too much, there are like forty berjillion fandoms I've never written, lol.) Kind of nervous/excited. I didn't put together my letter to my yuletide author yet. Maybe I'll get around to that this afternoon.

I loved Terminator Monday night too! Damn, It was too good for words! I think the best one this season.

Definitely. I can't remember the name of the ep where Cameron has flashbacks as Allison, but that one was pretty damn good as well.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. Well, then the episode mentioned above and the Allison episode are the best ones of the season.

Will certainly beta for you, hon.

Yay! Thanks.

Uhoh. I think you're right. Although I wanted the McCoy kid to stay the big football star so that my Matty can focus on life after football and get a scholarship and go to medschool and become a surgeon. :p Come on, even Zach Gilford knows Matt is my mini!Jack.

I haven't seen the last two episodes either. Shame on me.

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahah, I don't find a lot of parallels between Jack and Matt. I think Matt's too sweet, haha. Of course he does have his share of baggage, but Jack's much more of a take-charge kind of guy than Matt. Though I can see where you'd find similarities.

Yeah it's gotta be McCoy. There wouldn't be enough build-up for it to be anybody else really. I could have seen it in Santiago eventually, but they dropped his character.

OMG, of course it's JD McCoy!!! And that's brilliant! OMG, I might even be able to write some FNL slash, FINALLY!!!

er, I mean, HI, thank you for the spoiler, and how are you today? ;D

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah. I dunno if I'll be partaking in that. I haven't seen the last two eps so maybe I'll warm to him but JD McCoy kinda gives me the CREEPS. LOL.

And you're welcome!

[identity profile] gigglemonster.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh WOW!
That is a very interesting spoiler! I kinda can't wait for the ep now! lol
I have a feeling it kinda has to be JD too. I think with pretty much any of the other characters it would feel extremely out of the blue! Not that I'd mind if it was Tim and he confided in Billy and then that led to them like making out or something.......yeah
HI!

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah, well that would be interesting to say the least!

[identity profile] smercy.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
the soda can! that was so fucking intense!
but I was honestly a bit more squicked when cameron dropped her jacket.

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Naw, that was just her using what she knows about human motivations to get what she wants.

[identity profile] smercy.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
oh those robots, they just grow up so fast!

HA!! *has read the FNL spoiler*

I knew it! Sooner or later someone had to be gay!
I was actually hoping it would be Santiago, since the actor did such a fantastic job playing that gay soldier on Grey's Anatomy, but JD would be cool, too...how much do you wanna bet that he will fall for Riggins? (Everybody does ;)

Ooohhh, that is awesome and has made my day!

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a feeling that this show will probably shy away from gay characters falling for straight ones. Unless they do it in a light way.

And I totally agree that he was great in Grey's but I remember thinking they might be going there with his character before even seeing that ep. They may have been, but with the short season maybe it got squashed. I honestly preferred him over what I've seen of JD so far. I thought the actor was really understated.

JD's got that weird deer-in-the-headlights look all the time lol. Gives me the heebie jeebies.

SCC was so awesome! And I would definitely be down for some James/Sarah.

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
They have a lot in common right now.

[identity profile] workswithwords.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It's totally JD. I know it. But secretly if it was Herc I would love that too. LOL.

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2008-11-12 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not all that excited about it. I mean, guessing who it might be (but it's obvious really) is fun but other than that I'm not sure I really care that much if a side character is suddenly gay. If it was a main character and they'd developed it for a while it would be much more interesting and potentially compelling. But I really haven't seen JD that much and I don't really care about him at all.

And even with Herc it would be way out of the blue, given his past behavior. That would only make sense if they'd given some kind of hinting to it.
