Happy Birthday, Jesus. Sorry your party's so lame.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Flist! As the subject says, the party is kind of lame here as we don't do a lot for the holiday besides a dinner and a present or two (mostly money). But nice to get the day off work and be able to do whatever I want. Which is mostly to watch Six Feet Under as it is my mission to finish S2 today. I am looking forward to watching Doctor Who Christmas special as well which is just about done. And there's always Yuletide too which although I'm always jealous of the people who get to participate, there's good fic I like and this year a vid! Everyone should check out eruthros and thingswithwings's One-Night Fandoms: A Tribute to Yuletide which is an awesome look at all the more obscure fandoms. And there's two fics for The Wire this year! I always check that fandom first and both are wonderfully Omar/Brandon focused. There's Five Ways Omar Remembers Brandon and Scar Tissue and both are great :)

I fail at the Happiness Meme but nothing very happy has happened to me lately so not much to report. At least you are spared my rant on how much I hate cold and snow and 10 minute trips taking 45 minutes instead causing me to scream. But at least Six Feet Under has been great! It's a show that takes awhile to sink in, it reminds me of Mad Men in that I don't have a ton of LOVE and JOY in it but yet I want to watch more and more and I like all the characters and want to find out more about them. At the moment I love David, Brenda and Claire the most and I'm looking forward to marathoning some more. I don't know if I'm looking forward to the series finale or this vid (which everyone whose seen SFU should go watch) more.

Hope everyone's holidays are going well!

Hi and Merry Christmas to you too!! Well, here in Greece, we have the present exchange and the biggest.. 'parties' on New Year's Eve, it's like a tradition :)

I have never watched Six Feet Under but I admit, I am curious about it (mostly because of Michael C. Hall because, yay Dexter!) so, I might start watching it soon-ish.

Thanks :) Sounds cool, I have still yet to do my friends one.

You should! MCH is amazing in it, he's a lot unlike Dexter and so much prettier in it. It's a great show that hooks you in.

Wow, that SFU video is amazing ♥
God, I miss that show so much. To me probably the best television show ever made. Yes. Controversial, but hey :p
I only have the first season on DVD, I need to get my hands on the others some time soon. I kinda miss that crazy family like hell sometimes <3

Also, the series finale? As in, the last couple of minutes of the last ever episode? The best couple of minutes of television I have ever seen and for me now the only acceptable way ever to end a television show. I will forever be dissapointed in any show that doesn't end excactly like this one. Which is every show, so I'm always gonna be dissapointed. But I guess you can't repeat perfection <3

It is! I love it so much. I think other shows are better overall but that ending is perfect. I want to get the collection! They're fun to watch again. And true about the finale although I'm glad they don't because I don't know if I could go through that again. Plus it's nice to have some mystery...but with this show, it was the only way to go.
