also, I hated it when Sam grew her hair.
Aug. 23rd, 2009 11:34 pmIs it silly that I'm putting off watching the Eureka episode in whih the Eureka people have a bowling competition against the Area 51 people purely because in my head, this episode MUST have Sam and Rodney in it, and I'll be devastated that they're not?
... yeah, never mind.
I lost this weekend in the black hole of Rachel Maddow youtube clips and maddowfans.com. This is a lot better than losing time to the black hole of nynaeve/lan fic on the Pit of Voles, which is how I spent my Friday - you come out of the former feeling sort of energised and liberal and dissatisfied instead of vaguely horrified and disturbed and dissatisfied. I don't know if I've mentioned, but Rachel Maddow is my favourite TV american of all time. However, some of the reporting around her makes me make the strangest face, e.g. this one article which talked about her exuding a raw sexuality on her TV show. In articles about the butch aesthetic. Now, do not get me wrong, she is seriously hot and I would do her in a flat second, but her TV look is about as bland and feminine as I can imagine her getting. And, you know, BLAND. She looks like a TV anchor, which is fine because that's what she is - in fact, she's talked about deliberately toning down her image for the show in order that her appearance does not detract from her message. I just - ! Anyway. People are ridiculous, Rachel Maddow is seriously clever, left, and funny, and that is why you should watch her show (if you are American or have access to Youtube). She is great-looking, in a less conventional way and that's fun, but remember everyone: she's a TV woman. They're all great-looking, that's what they do.
