...Best Damn Tapper! *Most Smartest*

Lip Service gets a second season!



Moar Frankie Alan making my pants happy! 

(and yes, that is the only comment I will make on it because I'm too busy thinking about Frankie to form any other intelligible thoughts)

I feel like this week the fate's conspired to make me ship things to a ridiculous agree while simultaneously breaking my heart.  

Lip Service - 1x05 (clicky clicky)

( Thoughts on the episode behind the cut ... beware of le spoilers )

Six (Five?  I don't know.  In any case it was way to many when shows like LoTS are taken away from me too soon!) seasons of The L Word and I never got the appeal of Shane (and by association Kate Moennig). 

One episode of Dexter and I get it.  I totally get it. *sigh*  If only I'd been able to watch Kate as this character sexin' Lokinator I might have finished season four.

( Witness the hotness that is Kate as Michael Angelo - yes, you read that right, lol )

And, speak of Shane reminds me of the emo!wonder that is Frankie Alan ... so, here is episode 3 of Lip Service

So I just finished watching Lip Service and I am shocked and awed because I actually enjoyed the hell out of it!

This show has been referred to so many times as the British The L Word so many times, that the thought of watching it nearly made me break out in hives.  I fucking hated The L Word, passionately, fervently hated it.  There are no words to describe how much I came to detest that show.  So, consequently I viewed all of the trailers and promos pics for Lip Service with the same incredible loathing and dripping contempt with which I viewed all L Word related media.  

I honestly had to talk myself into watching this.  Like I had to give myself a pep talk.  "Come on champ!  You can do it!" might have appeared sometime during my mental positive re-enforcement parade.  But I did make myself watch and ...




I AM SO GLAD THAT I DID!

( More thoughts on Lip Service behind the cut ... slight spoilers )

I honestly don't even know what to do with myself, all liking the characters and rooting for relationships that I'm supposed to.  I feel like I've just seen a unicorn or something.  My heart ... it is effulgent with joy!
