Popera at it's best! I don't know if that's a word, but it should be because it perfectly describes Mika's music. The album is full of brightly-hued melodies, awesome hooks, and lovely playfully powerful vocals. There's even a choir in some ya'll!

Seriously, if you listen to tracks like Big Girl (You are Beautiful) and Lollipop or Love Today and don't feel the need to get up and shake your groove thing, then stay away from mirrors, religious symbols, certain spices, small children, animals, and holy ground because obviously you are a soulless automaton.

(I'm only partly joking about this!)

Seriously, this is like my new favorite album and when I put it on in the morning it totally allows me to get up and face the day with a smile instead of hissing, baring my teeth and clawing at people which was my previous morning routine.

Check it out if you want, if not ... carry on ... to


Stana Katic as Hana Gitelman from the "Wireless" preview. And if I do say so myself, Stana is waaaaay hotter than her "Heroes" comic version. Though that's pretty much the case with the entire cast ... except Audrey ... and Matt ... hmmm, maybe they are perfect for each other no matter how much I hate them because they're way cooler as drawings (though just as stupid, in Audrey's case maybe more so).

Anyway, looking forward to Hanna's appearance ... and if you haven't checked out the on-line comics you totally should. They're a nice way to hold off on "Heroes" withdrawl until the next episode, lol.

This is music to hear that Jill Wagner is up for Wonder Woman (http://www.joblo.com/more-wonder-wannabes) to.

Everyone and their mother is up for Wonderwoman. My Mom got a callback yesterday, and she's a 60 year old black woman. Like almost every actress under the age of 40 has been mentioned in relation to this role. And I still haven't a seen a suggestion that I really like ... that's plausible at least (*sigh* why did Morena Baccarin have to be like 3 inches too short?)

Now, I love me some Jill Wagner, truly I do, but I can't really see her as Wonderwoman. She just doesn't seem to have that regal, elegant, wise air that Diana needs. Now, maybe I'm biased because I've only seen her as bad-ass cop Krista Starr and she would wow me with her range and timelessness ... but I doubt it.

I'll be very interested to see who actually ends up with the part though. Somehow I think they're going to go with the unknown route like with Superman.
