Green Room - Week 36 - Day 3

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Today is a busy day in Idol-land, so I'll cut right to business:

We had the results of the Quick Fire last night: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/834094.html

and today is the deadline to get in your entry in! http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/832879.html

How do you know if you have or not? Because if you haven't - you are being shamed!!! :) http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/834503.html


Tonight is also the deadline for getting in your votes for the Spirit of LJ Idol, Season 9. So far, 6 of the eligible 11 contestants have turned in their ballots. http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/832594.html

For any of those remaining voters - I'm sure you are planning on getting in your votes, and are just thinking about how you want to rank everyone to best reflect your feelings.

If, for some reason, you don't vote - I'll have to turn it over to my dog.

This morning, I asked Foxy who she wanted to vote for - and showed her the list of candidates.

Apparently, the person remaining who best represents what this season has been about is a bunch of lion cubs playing. (on one of her favorite shows: Big Cat Diary)

She was *very* passionate about that choice. It had all of her attention, and she excitedly grabbed her rope and swung it back and forth in between barks.

Now, clearly, a bunch of lion cubs playing is a great choice and will represent Idol well.

But if it's not YOUR choice - you should probably get your ballot in!

What shows make *you* grab your rope and excitedly bark at the screen?

Justified - which is currently rocking it's final season (sniff). Someone needs to cast Timothy Olyphant in another hot-ass law enforcement roll stat.

Also, I am loving the final season of Parks & Recreation. I'm sad to see it go but am loving how carefully they are paying off jokes set up years ago.

And lots of other stuff, but I'm behind on everything except these two.

AARGH!!! I didn't know it was the last season. That makes so much sense now. *sobs*

Yeah, Raylon v. Boyd pretty much has to be for all of the marbles. I'm glad they were given the chance to write to what they know will be an ending, but will be really sad when it's over. I honestly think it's some of the very best dialog on TV, and their casting directors have been spot on.

Don't cry - it's not over yet!

(Also, how do I not have a Deadwood or Justified icon? I know which corner of the internet I'm exploring if work remains slow tomorrow.)

We have two episodes of "Justified" queued up, but haven't watched them yet.

I'm almost afraid to, being both a Raylan/Boyd fan and also having witnessed the utter WTF-ery of the past season. Yikes.

watch them! so far this season a big improvement over last season. so much less wtf. and ava is actually part of the story now, not just shunted into some unconnected side plot.

I'm not a huge fan or non-fan of Ava, but her storyline last year was a timewaster, for me. Like, "Let's do Orange Is the New Black! Except, nowhere near as well!"

Also, the Crowes? Apart from Dooley as comic relief, I have no interest in them. Ma Bennett, yes. But that was not in any way Ma Bennett 2.0. :O

It's really good so far, they're throwing a lot of interesting things into the air and I am looking forward to seeing who juggles and who drops them. The new guest stars are fabulous.

There's been one Raylan/Boyd scene so far and I rewound it to watch several times. Those two playing off each other are a joy.
