Why is gas so expensiiiive? D:

Met up with lyndsiefenele and sarea_okelani yesterday to see No Strings Attached, which was enjoyable enough. By no means a cinemastic masterpiece, but it was cute and had a few funny moments, so that pretty much meets my expectations for romcoms. I didn't understand the point of Cary Elwes' character, though I'm not complaining, as I am always happy to see Cary Elwes. Incidentally, why don't I have any Princess Bride icons?

Sarea also passed me S1 and S2 of Misfits, which I am tres excited to watch, since everybody seems to love it.

PBS is currently airing Downton Abbey; I missed the first couple of episodes, so am catching up at the Masterpiece website. I'm in the middle of what I think is originally ep 4 (PBS squishes the eps together to make one hour-and-a-half episode), and I am nonplussed at Matthew suddenly being jealous of the attention Mary's getting from the Turkish dude and that other lordy guy. I'm sorry, but so far, Mary's been nothing but a stuck-up bee, and nobody should be interested in her. Then again I say this while at the same time kind of liking Thomas, who is an asshole, and hoping he gets a happily gay ever after, so there might be something wrong with this picture.

It went totally under the radar for me until it showed up on PBS recently; Upstairs Downstairs is another one that'll be coming soon. British period dramas, huzzah! I will have to take your word about Mary for now :)
