This is a Warehouse 13 post
Aug. 18th, 2010 06:55 pm I don't know why tv is so gay this week, but I'm not complaining!
This weeks Warehouse 13 was full of Myka/H.G Wells goodness, and I'm sort of mad at the show because next week I'm not going to be able to see Jaime Murray and Joanne Kelly gay and awesome it up all over the place like they did this week. Seriously, the Myka/H.G duo is dynamic as hell and I want more.

It was also super enjoyable to see Myka acting like an adult this episode. H.G brings out the competence in Myka which I enjoy.
Other stuff happened in this episode, like Myka flirted with a vet who likes Twizzlers, Artie hit on the Bionic Woman (who still looks great btw), Pete was a silly man-boy because that's what Pete does even though he's actually a grown ass man, Claudia was comically awkward and continues to act like she's never interacted with male before in all her 19 years of life, and Neve Campbell's brother showed up, but honestly this episode was all about Myka and H.G for me.
Ooh, and because this is very important information that the media should be alerted about: my girl!crush on Jaime Murray is not back and in full effect. Her turn as Lila on Dexter scarred me for a while, but damn if girlfriend wasn't full of dashing, swagger, charm and ridiculous good looks this week.

Date: 2010-08-19 12:50 am (UTC)I definitely think that HG was interested though. She was eyeballing the hell out of Myka all episode long, she was very impressed with herself when Myka swooned after the grapling gun trick, and she's the one leaving presents and cute little notes for Myka. Also, she looked very interested when Myka said that HG "served under her" and did everything Myka told her.
But to be sure, HG does come with a heaping of natural flirty swagger. I just think she would follow through with Myka!

Date: 2010-08-19 12:52 am (UTC)It is a sci-fi show, and I'd say worth a watch or two to see if you like it.

Date: 2010-08-19 01:36 am (UTC)ETA: Why, oh, WHY couldn't *this* ep been what the show's about from the beginning. Had it been 'the adventures of Myka, HG and junior agent Claudia', I would have been ALL over this show.

Date: 2010-08-19 03:19 am (UTC)Mm, I LOVED that scene as well. There was something incredibly intimate about it that just poke, poke, poke'd at all things that make me squee. The grappling hook scene was great for swagger, but the last scene was the heart melter/panty dampener.
ANd I love how HG was subtly pushing Myka's buttons all 'oh Myka, I want you to top me like circus under a tent'!
lol! I could totally see HG as a power bottom, making Myka think she's in charge and topping when really Myka just does exactly what HG wants. Also, heh.

Oh, I know. THIS is a show I could have become obsessed over and loved with all of my heart. This is a show that could have filled the LotS sized crater in my heart. Unfortunately, this episode is not indicative of the general quality of the show. *sigh* Oh how beautiful it could have been. It makes me want to cry to think that Jaime Murray will likely not be made a regular character.

Date: 2010-08-19 02:37 am (UTC)I'm just like 'OH HAI JAIME MURRAY'. I saw her do a guest spot on NCIS once and was horrified to hear her accent disappear. It was scary and I did not like it one bit.
Speaking of scary - Lyla creeped me the fuck out (Seriously, every time she was on-screen my brain was like "Evil, British Carly Pope.") and I was kinda sorta happy when she died.

Heh. Me too. When I saw her in the previouslies, I was like "YES! DIS GON BE GUD!"
I saw her do a guest spot on NCIS once and was horrified to hear her accent disappear. It was scary and I did not like it one bit.
That is sick and wrong! Her accent is golden. It's kind of like when I hear Rhona Mitra with an American accent. I'm like, "Why? Why would you do that entertainment industry? Why do you hate me? GIVE ME SEXY BRITISH GIRL ACCENTS!"
Seriously, every time she was on-screen my brain was like "Evil, British Carly Pope."
Heh! Yeah, Dexter was not a role that would have won Jaime many fans. She was really creepy in it. Luckily I loved from before that debacle so I just needed a project to erase the horror of Lila from my mind, lol

Ok I admit I might've liked the character too. The true darker aspects of human nature fascinate me. I never understood people who said they hated her.

I actually did a choke-take on that one, I laughed so hard. Especially when H.G. looked at her all flirty like "well alright then, that sounds like a grand idea." I can totally see Myka later being flustered and going "that's not what I meant!" but we know it was. Kinda reminded me of Bad Girls' Helen and Nikki in the early days, especially with that accent. *swoon* Gawd, Brits, why ya gotta sound so fricking sexy? I'm totally hoping she comes back soon, and isn't faking, because there needs to be more H.G. and Myka.
And was I the only one who SO wanted Claudia to comment on the ghey vibe?

Date: 2010-08-20 05:37 pm (UTC)LOL! I know. W13 went from being "The Show with no Gay" to "The Show with Extra Gay" in one episode.

I know! I was like, there's no way that line comes across as not being really dirty and kinky. And H.G.'s little smile in response to it was brilliant. Mm, dom!Myka is a sexy beast.

I know, right! A posh british accent is like an aphrodisiac. Jaime Murray's voice is like fingers running over your body. And if H.G. isn't back again (hopefully a few more times) this season I am going to be so disappointed.
And was I the only one who SO wanted Claudia to comment on the ghey vibe?
lol, they've presented Claudia as so clueless about most human interactions that she probably didn't notice. But a line like, "Flirting later, getting me out of this tub of nice now" or something would have been hilarious ... and, you know, accurate, lol

I don't think there's much chance of it working on Futurama, tho.
Oh well, it's worth a shot. Just have to come up with a manthra and begin projecting my brain waves.
Captioned screencaps: A++

HG is the Maura to Myka's Jane.
perfect comparison! yes, TV is pretty gay (and awesome) this week.
the gross English titty vampire turn was a bit psychotic, but she was still hot (unintentional pun, I swear). Stacie Monroe.... <333

It really has been. Next week is going to be a letdown. *glares at next week and its likely lack of gay*
Stacie Monroe.... <333
Mmm, Stacie Monroe. I LOVED Jamie on Hustle.

Date: 2010-08-20 05:47 pm (UTC)Sadly, I'm convinced that the fact that I love her so much and want her back on the show means that this will be the last we've seen of her for the season :(
no subject
Date: 2010-08-20 05:51 pm (UTC)I really liked the energy Jaime Murray brought to the screen, and it was nice seeing Myka and Claudia out on an adventure as well. Plus, the fact that every one I like was in one storyline makes fastforwarding through the Pete and Artie scenes so much easier (I liked Pete a lot in Season 1, but I've been finding him WAY too silly this season).
Even though I know it's not likely I'm hoping that H.G. will become a recurring character or even a regular.

Date: 2010-08-22 03:02 pm (UTC)Because, come on, that would be awesome. And yeah, I know she had a daughter but like...She didn't say anything about the husband, only the daughter.

Date: 2010-08-26 08:04 am (UTC)the first meeting of them was full of slash, and I so hope that it will continue. and that they won't kill HG Wells, and that there will be a lot of femslash....
and yes, I do realize that it is utterly lame to spend my vaca catching up on tv shows, but hey... why the fuck not?
