Warning: Flail of the CAPSLOCK Variety Beneath

Okay, it could be that I've had too much caffeine today, or it could be that I've been stunned by the utter and complete gorgeousness of Crusoe and his sidekick Friday from the premiere of the new series CRUSOE (NBC, Friday evenings). Witness my reaction to the show, bulleted to draw your attention to the important points. And by the way, these are somewhat spoilery although truth be told you won't be watching for the plot if you're anything like me. I'll put these under a cut:




  • dsfdfesioeuiteu8dfvkjv;kne;ireu8rg;jnnfreuioerfkbnweitjeiotqweorn (and assorted other keyboard smashes of GLEE and LUST)
  • The guy who plays Robinson Crusoe's real name is Philip WINCHESTER. Glory be, but it's a sign from on high that I may like this show 1/10th as much as I love Supernatural. And that means that I may actually sit through the God-awful commercials to watch the show when it airs instead of just DVRing it.
  • The guy who plays Robinson Crusoe is a hottie who looks like Sean Bean (who plays his father in the show!!) and we get to see his NEKKID WELL-MUSCLED chest. Yes, me likes this very very much.
  • The guy who plays Friday is a hottie with an African accent and perfect skin and gorgeous lips. See above sentiment.
  • There is a scene in which: FRIDAY AND CRUSOE ARE IN A POOL OF WATER ALL DRIPPING AND BREATHING HARD AND CLUTCHING AT ONE ANOTHER AND GOD SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE ME A SCREENCAP OF THIS SO I CAN JUST SIT AT MY COMPUTER AND LOOK AT THAT IMAGE ALL FRICKIN DAY.
  • In search of the above referenced screencap I naturally went to LJ to find the show's comm. Gasp! There wasn't one yet. Well, now there is because I started it:

Please join and pimp it out if you have even the slightest interest in it. Do it for the GORGEOUS MEN, PEOPLE. They clearly need our undying adoration support.

More episode commentary:

Anyhow, it's not what you would call intellectually stimulating TV - it's more like Saturday morning old Tarzan-type adventure movies, but I found it enjoyable and will definitely be watching more. I do, however, have to address one glaring plot problem:

If Crusoe is brilliant enough to construct elevators and Ewok-type tree abodes and circley bicycle bridge thingies then why the hell can't he build a BOAT and sail off the frickin island????

More blathering to come. But I'll probably post that on the comm itself.

I own no tv so I haven't even heard of this show.
*made of fail*
I SUCK BOBO!

Mebbe I'll surfthechannel.com it and see if I likes it :D

LMAO!!! I suck Bobo and his monkey, too, cause I only heard about it through my flist. Haha!! It was quite the pleasant surprise, let me tell you. YUM.

I basically ONLY watch SPN and Sarah Connor on TV and nothing else, ever. Hubby has his paws on the remote the rest of the time.

BTW, I was going to comment on your post about the friends cut and yowl loudly that you MUSTN'T CUT ME, but I decided to have high self-esteem and assume you still want me.

[identity profile] alaerys.livejournal.com 2008-10-19 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I pretty much only watch SPN on tv now. I watch Bones and Dexter on surfthechannel.com

*kicks hubby* LET WOMAN WATCH TV!

Pf.. I wouldn't cut you. I actually LIKE you. Your self-esteem is correct :D
It's mainly for like 5 people that I've noticed I keep scrolling past their posts cuz I just don't care. And they nor I comment on eachother's stuff, so I figure, "Bye bye"

I watched it on hulu.com if you're looking for streaming videos online.

Is it a reliable site?

[identity profile] lori-leaf.livejournal.com 2008-10-30 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
From what I understand, the networks allow hulu to show their episodes as well as some bonus material (depending on the network). It's free advertising for the networks and they do have mini-commercial breaks so the networks get their money. It's not only reliable, but it's network endorsed.

Of course this is the information given to me by my sister, so I can't claim to have looked it up on my own. But hey, she's my sister, I trust her. *g*

Sounds good enough to me.
Thanks :)
I appreciate it.
