An entry of a fannish persuasion

Lo and behold, Skiffy is showing 9th season XF episodes. "4-D" was on this afternoon. Hooray for Doggett/Reyes shippiness! There's a part of me that likes them better than Mulder and Scully. This is possibly because they didn't get seven years to fool around with the UST and then have it ruined with a weird baby and alien abduction storyline. Muse is staring at me and chanting, "Fic, fic, fic!" but I'm resisting. For now. Instead, I'll continue to download episode clips at this lovely site, which appears to have a D/R slant, since it's got all the relevant clips for "4-D," "Audrey Pauley," "Release," and probably others that I haven't investigated yet.

tarzanic, I did very much enjoy "Beneath the Surface" on Monday night. In fact, I think I may have found my favorite episode of SG-1. (Well, maybe it's at the top of a heap of favorites out of the ones I've seen, anyway. "Desperate Measures" on your tape completely blew me away, as do POV, 1969, Jolinar's Memories/TDYK, The Fifth Race, Nemesis/Small Victories, and a few other episodes.) The ending broke my heart. It got "damn you"s for both RDA and AT, because, dude. Ow. *sniffle* Speaking of your tape, will e-mail you soon about getting it back to you. I did very much enjoy Wormhole X-Treme! *g* Actually, now that I've seen most of S5, I've really, really liked all that I've seen. I've found that a lot of people didn't really like it, but I can't imagine why. It doesn't have the shippy that S4 did, but the stories and characterization are excellent.

Going back to tapes in general, also very much enjoyed D&C thanks to cheapevilgirl, so yay Krissy! :)

The kitten, whom we may be deeming Elmo ('cause it's sort of the only name that you can make from trees, which he likes to climb), slept on my lap for the entire afternoon while I watched tarzanic's tape. I get the feeling that he's staying with us for the long haul. Good, in that he's an adorable kitten and I love him to pieces, but bad in that I'm not looking forward to cat-proofing the house.

That's about it, I guess. I really, really, really, really miss Scapers. :-(

My God, I *love* those X-Files episodes. sigh...

I actually did like what very, very little I saw of S9 when it was new--except for the Finale From Hell, but that's a whole other can of worms. *is still bitter* "Release" was quite a nice piece of work from a lot of different angles.

Yeah, I thought a majority of season 9 was much better than season 8.
