I enjoyed Coven immensely and am a regular commenter here. Was it perfect? NO. Was it even what you call quality? Oh, hell no. But it was fun for me, at least the whole Misty Day/ Stevie Nicks thing.

I do too, now. I'm picturing Sir Patrick and Sir Ian hoisting their swords (not a euphemism!) and taking an oath and giggling their way through it because they're having so much fun.

I'm so sorry.

I am going through a midlife crisis. I feel as though I've never taken a chance on anything, always just kept my head down and taken the path of least resistance and now I live in a crappy condo I can't sell for much and wouldn't find an affordable place to live if I did and have no significant other and never will…

3000 pages?? Sweet Jesus, I knew the man needed an editor but that's excessive.

Matt Dillon, John Simm, Benedict Cumberbatch.

Some more of the hostas I thought were dead have started to come up, and it's great seeing so many of my plants starting up great guns already. ! Otherwise, I haven't touched anything, and God knows I need to get out and weed, as well as sitting down and coming up with a garden plan. I want to buy some statuary this…

This looks simple enough that I can do it and the only thing I'd have to buy is the toasted sesame oil. I'll try this soon, anything that can make me hungry like this at 9 am is worth it.

Okay then.

Honestly, I couldn't stand Muldaur in her appearances on TOS, either. She comes off to me as utterly devoid of human warmth and arrogant to boot, so I feel like she was a terrible choice to play someone who's supposed to be lovable and cranky.

Phlox. Played by John Billingsly. An alien from a race we'd never seen before who happened to be really nice … but the crew wasn't quite ready for all the differences between cultures.

Bones really crossed a line once in a while … but he also forthrightly apologized when he did. So yeah, I agree - very different reception.

As someone with a name hard to pronounce and spell, I was thoroughly done with her when she decided "I don't have to pronounce your name right because you're not a person." Like, rude, bigoted, AND too arrogant to bother pronouncing a name right? Go fall down a turbolift shaft, bitch.

I hated her so much on TNG that I was PISSED when she came over to LA Law. And then after two years of irritating the shit out of me, I laughed long and hard at that elevator scene.

That's what I thought!

Too bad he doesn't, because he looks great with the beard.

Oh, good point! Easy fix, though - start stopping by the Reasonable Discussions threads every Wednesday at noon. There's a thread every week (usually Judkins Major posts it) for what we're all reading, and I will post my thoughts about it there once I'm done!

Very.

Thanks for the shoutout. :) For ease of use, here's the link again. (<- link) My own copy apparently just arrived in my inbox today. It'll be a while before I get to it, though - I have a stack (including library books) to get through first.

Yes, she is. It's the Daily Mail, fair enough, (<-linky) but the same article's been printed elsewhere. Apparently, Bette didn't just practice witchcraft, but B.D. says she saw her mother's face go full on Satan.
