if you haven't seen it, it's new to you.

So I'm watching Millennium Season 3, which -- remember how hard I pimped Season 2 to you? Season 3, not so much. Not as bad as the final years of X-Files, but not where you want to start, and you won't die if you don't watch it.

Anyway, I'm watching it, and...there's an episode I've never seen. The hell? Why didn't I see this? I was enjoying a slight nervous breakdown at the time, so maybe it was one of those Fridays where I came home and went to bed for 15 hours. Maybe Channel 7 bumped it for Christmas with Billy Graham or something. My point is...new episode!

And it's a Christmas episode. The BOMPBOMP! is replaced with a jolly little jingle bell chingching!, which is quite delightful. And it starts out well, ragging on Miller's Crossing and Beauty and the Beast (the TV show, which needed a lot more ragging than it ever got). Sadly, the whole thing falls to bits in about 20 minutes. They were trying for Darin Morgan and got Lee Goldberg on the brown acid instead.

Still and all, though, I'm saying, new! episode! of! Millennium!

ETA: Also, "...13 Years Later" is nowhere near as bad as I remembered.

Was season 3 after the snippy wife finally keeled over and they paired him with Cool Black Chick? I think I missed a bunch of those.

Snippy?!?

I don't remember a whole hell of a lot of the third season - plus I missed a bunch of them when they aired then. I didn't remember there being a Christmas episode. Pretty much the only third season ep I remember well was the one with the angel of death. So, what's the title of this one?

[ex-adarog.livejournal.com]

I *liked* Beauty and the Beast. Well, the first season and a half or so. I liked it when Catherine still kicked ass. And, honestly, at the time I just loved the original fairy tale So Much. Oh, hell, Ron Perlman looks *good* in fur.

[nitasee.livejournal.com]

Sadly, he looks better with fur than without. In his favour (and before I get hit), he's a really excellent actor.

It's called...um..."Omerta"? First episode of Disc 3, I think. Right before the people-drown-in-a-train episode, which I do remember watching.

people-drown-in-a-train episode,

That's the angel of death one I'm talkin' about.

I liked B&B, too, believe me. I remember sitting there watching little Jessica get yanked out of the well, thinking, "Where is my show, fuckers?" But it also had a lot of stupid, and some fans who deserved a good, solid ass-caning.

[tikistitch.livejournal.com]

en garde!!

*whips out official Lilo & Stitch nunchaku*

*twirls in threatening manner*

*hits self in face, falls over*

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I figured that out just as I hit "post."

[ex-adarog.livejournal.com]

I thought he was superbly awesome in Hellboy. I rented that twice in one week and foisted it on my family. (He does look better with fur, alas.)

[ex-adarog.livejournal.com]

No argument from me about the stupid or the wacko fans. But I used to have a mug with a drawing of Vincent on it that a friend got for me at a con. Le sigh.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

I like him without. He looks sort of like the offspring of Honor Blackman and a Golem.

I had a print I liked, and recently found a Fimo figurine of Vincent and Catherine I got Mom back in the day.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Oh dear.

*fetches a cold washcloth*

"....the bunnies.....the bunnies.....!!!"

I remember sitting there watching little Jessica get yanked out of the well, thinking, "Where is my show, fuckers?"

Oh, lord, I'd forgotten about that! Had much the same reaction, yes. XD

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

We are old, yup.

Did they even get her out that night?

[strigine.livejournal.com]

You know, I'm not certain, but I think they did.

[nitasee.livejournal.com]

I own Hellboy.

I always dug 'Omerta' - it had Crosetti.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

...the what with the what now?

Jon Polito from "Homicide". Kinda nifty having my two 'why is nobody watching?' shows converge, even though the writing in the episode did take a steep nosedive early on.
