girlofpreyHello. I'm back on the internet.
I love Roman's Empire. Not because it's any good - no - though it has it's moments, but because it suprised me with pretty much my favourite little-known actor, and then made him incredibly gay. Like, 'yes I fool around with guys, but I'm not gay!' gay. He is Seb. He likes rugby, and especially the scrums. Tonight's episode was pretty low-key, but oh God last week, last week the main character, whose girlfriend left him for Seb and who keeps trying to win her back, first tried to sabotage their relationship, and then ended up working with Seb to figure out some financial records, and that the girlfriend's father pimped out his wife to his brother in order to get some funding a few years before and wants to do it again. Seb insisted on being naked for that part. And later on the main character randomly used Seb's catchphrase. At the end they decided they were friends, after Seb remembered the main character's name. Mostly it was just perfect, and if they don't run away together I might scream.
Oh, Jimmy is just rubbish at Kingcest. Over the past few weeks he's gone looking for their secret half-sister, because "he's sick of it being 'just us'", wanted to move out of the big manorhouse they all live to live with his girlfriend somewhere away from them, and tonight he left the village, in the middle of a murder investigation, while Carl looked at him all fucked up and hurt and practically begged him to stay. That boy must just have some abandonment issues at this point. It does leave him with Matthew though. And Rosemary. Which is sort of nice.
TV is occasionally just great.
