What really struck me is how much TPTB downplayed Angel's looks in the first season.
I know! Whenever I see Angel as Angel, and now that I'm seeing the season 2 Gwen photos, I'm like, "Dammmmmmn, they screwed her over in Season 1". The woman is freaking gorgeous. I always thought Gwen was cute, but lately I'm getting a real girl boner for her.
I'd completely forgotten she was the cute chick on the plane who hit on Heck in Imagine Me & You.
OMG! That's Angel!?!?!?! *goes to rewatch that scene*
and I love her friendship with Katie McGrath and, honestly, it's taking everything I have to *not* write RPF about those two, especially with Katie in glasses.. rrrowwrr!
I love them together too. And you totally need to write that fic. Do it! Do it! Do it! Oddly enough, my Merlin real-life OTP is this: But I'll still gladly read Katie/Angel sexin'!
Megan Fox reminds me a LOT of Katherine Heigl (who I also love). In that, she's not playing the Hollywood 'game', she's not presenting herself as the girl next door or your potential best bud.
I can kind of see that ... but I HATE Katherine Heigl so I'm going to say no more because I don't want her associated with my baby in my brains.
And I honestly don't blame her for not wanting to do nude scenes. I can only imagine how much crazier the drooling fanboys would get should she ever drop trou.
I know. Honestly, the level of attention she gets (for a relatively unimpressive filmography so far) is INSANE. If I were her, I wouldn't want to do anything to bring back all of that sex-kitten frothing either.
OMG, I think I'm actually starting to like like this show.
I know! It's weird right. I genuinely enjoyed the last episode (and that one with bad!Myka).
Myka is running around in casual clothes and she's wearing.. sneakers. So many shows today would have had her running about in six-inch heels and it was one of those small little things.
Yeah, I liked that touch too. It was super cute. In fact, I hope that they keep on having Myka be adorably geeky instead of having her act like a bitch. She was extremely crush worthy in the last episode and her interactions with Claudia were so cute.
Although, the episode really begged the question of 'where the Heck was Leenla'?
I know! I am not at all appreciating the lack of Leena! I really like the Leena character, and the shallower viewer in me likes looking at the actress playing her as well. Leena works really well with the the team and with Arty. She needs to be on screen more!
