skygiantsFirst, a notice: after today I will probably be pretty much incommunicado the rest of this week, due to Big Work Conference of Epicness Etc. By Friday I confidently expect to have little-to-no brain or energy or polite professional socialface left, so it's fortunate that I have Friday and the weekend mostly free for once to do nothing except lounge on the couch and marathon television.
HOWEVER. There is a flaw in my genius plan, namely: there is a ton of stuff I have been meaning to watch or rewatch, and I know that by the time Friday rolls around I will be completely disinclined to make any decisions at all except the premeditated decision to loll around on the couch and do nothing. Therefore: GUIDE ME, INTERNET. I solemnly swear I will follow the majority decision, and post about it later (which may or may not be an incentive depending on whether you enjoy my long and rambly posts clogging up your flist, but.)

Date: 2010-09-25 06:36 pm (UTC)Gokusen! ALWAYS GOKUSEN. Although I've only read the manga, not watched the anime. But GOKUSEN. Guh. It is the only yakuza manga where the male love interest is the one who always gets kidnapped. Also, the yakuza teacher is like I WILL USE RIVALRY TO MAKE THIS LAZY YET BRILLIANT STUDENT GET FIRST PLACE IN THE NATIONAL EXAMS! THAT WILL WORK.
It totally does.And she forces him to be head of the boxing club, and he is all why am I doing thisss and her answer is pretty much BECAUSE FUNDING. They have a beautiful and poetic romance.(I am kind of totally in love with Gokusen. You may have noticed.)

Date: 2010-09-25 06:41 pm (UTC)I watched Lost in Austen recently and was disappointed! I'm not sure what you're looking for there, though, so it might still be for you. There's some humorous moments, but to me it felt like the 'serious' part of the storyline didn't hold itself up. Uh, as Doctor Who fan it was worth it only to see Alex Kingston as Mrs. Bennett anyway, haha.
Crossdressing nun joins an boyband sounds REALLY COOL. Is this an anime or a drama or what? (Highly curious!)
Re: Gokusen. READ THE MANGA INSTEAD (for a fuller/better storyline, etc)
no subject
Date: 2010-09-25 06:51 pm (UTC)It's a kdrama! That I know very little about except: CROSSDRESSING NUN JOINS BOYBAND, but . . . really, what else does anyone need to know?
You are the second person to recommend the manga, so I think it will have to go on my list!

Date: 2010-09-25 11:44 pm (UTC)mainlinewatch Psych, except after two episodes, I'm ready to slap Shaunand cuddle Gus, so perhaps I am not the best person to ask that question of.I keep thinking I should watch Xena one of these days. I saw bits of it here and there, and my lesbian girlfriends often threatened to go as Xena and Gabriel to various costume parties (but figured that truth in advertising might be too much), so they'd just show up in their normal gothwear instead.

Date: 2010-09-25 11:49 pm (UTC)I used to see bits of Xena in the background a lot when my parents were watching it growing up - I've been meaning to go back and watch it properly for years. Badass lesbians fight crime and have cracktastic adventures! How is it possible to go wrong?
