I'm making a point not to listen to vids of the actor who plays Felix speak for the time being. Let me have the illusion for a little while!
And I admit I was really confused in the pilot as to where it was supposed to be taking place - I heard "train to New York City" but didn't realize it was supposed to be Canada until the end of the ep and the BBC credits. Is it supposed to be toronto? Back in the 1980's, Toronto was a "stand in" for stuff meant to be set in NYC. (Now NYC has more of a film/tv industry again of it's own. Besides. now that I've been to NYC, there's no way to confuse it with anyplace else.)
And the movie I was referring to was "Stud Life" http://www.studlifethemovie.com The protagonist is a black butch lesbian photographer and her best friend is a gay man; they almost have a "bromance": "Mates before muffs". Of course, a little thing called love gets in the way...
T'nia Miller is ridiculously sexy as the butch protagonist....IMHO. *ahem*
And more about Cosima - I was snooping around the BBC site and found out she's a lesbian and my heart EXPLODED WITH JOY. My new favorite series with my newest favorite character and she's gay? (ok, it exploded yesterday thanks to Vastra and Jenny, so I had to pick up the pieces and glue it back together - and then it exploded again. Also, Tatiana talking about how they try to avoid making Cosima and Felix represent "the entire queer community" and just be regular people filled my heart with joy and the day is COMING very very soon when that won't even need to be said at all).
Is this better?
Yes it is! I've already stalked your user pics page - tis one of my newest hobbies. And by use of color I definitely meant your style is very much yours as distinct from kwritten's; and I love both "signatures". Given that I love antiques "worn and frayed" is something I appreciate.
Mary is from Sherlock (and only s3), and I don't think you'd want to get involved in that mess of a show.
My sweetie watched a couple of eps - I tried one and barely made it through. A WORLD of no.
making a lesbian identifying woman become enamoured with Sherlock.
THIS IS GROSS.
Hell, I think it's a good show.
That's available on Netflix and I've toyed with the idea of watching it several times but didn't know if it was good or not *Hastily adds it to must-watch list* the gory part does put me off a little so I'll have to see how it goes, but your rec helps!
