I forgot to say, but I finished State of Play on Saturday night and WHOA, totally didn't see that coming. It was still really good, and the last scene was just fantastic. I don't really see how a second season would work, though, as much as I'd like to see it, because it honestly kept me at the edge of my seat all along. And really, but David Morrisey rocked the hell out of that last ep, didn't he?

Speaking of which, I went back to seeing Blackpool (I'd seen the first ep and then discovered the shiny that is Seven'n'Ace, so...), and while when I first started watching State of Play I was thinking 'lol, Ripley', now, all I can't think is 'lol, Stephen Collings with tacky clothes'. But I liked Stephen (Yeah, I know), and Ripley is so... hard to like. Except for the sideburns, which are too loltastic not to like them, haha.

Also, David Tennant's scenes with Sarah Parish are hot. Hot hot hot.

I've realized something really weird about State of Play. Sadly, because I'm shallow like that, it has nothing to do with the plot. And everything to do with John Simm. While I'll admit he's not the hottest man in the universe, I do find him fairly attractive and yet, for the life of me I can't think of him as good looking while he's wearing the guise of Cal McCaffrey. Maybe it's the beard? Maybe it's the godawful clothes? Maybe it is that his character, while well constructed, isn't really all that lovable? Perhaps. Because I always wanted to hug Sam Tyler real tight and I wanted to do unspeakable things to the Master, SO. I'm conflicted.

Maybe it's the fact that he's surrounded by such handsome men as James McAvoy. Then again, that never distracted me while he was onscreen with David Tennant (in fact, I liked him more when he was onscreen with Tennant, but that's not here nor there) Anyway, I just found out BRAD PITT of all people will be playing Cal in the remake. LOL LOL LOL. How incredibly bad-casted is that, anyway? XDD

In any case, I'm up to ep. 4 and I'm waiting oh so anxiously for the last episodes to be uploaded. *bites nails*

( It's also come to my attention that I've read quite a lot of books in the last two months. o_O )Considering I read like, three books in the entire last semester (I KNOW, I KNOW), this is pretty pretty good and hopefully, I'll keep it up. At least until I, you know, END UP POOR from buying so many books, lol.
