I saw that earlier today, Kat, and my first thought was BOOBIES.
Also, Adrienne Palicki is SO pretty, and the hair and the makeup there really aren't doing her any favors.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The costume looks cheap shiny. Too much like latex, too little like superheroics. But the script looks like a waste of Palicki and Thoms so far.

The pants are just SO SO shiny. I mean. SHINY.

I'm just glad she gets to wear pants. Er, of a sort.

And her hair is no good. Sigh. She does NOT look good. Or even fierce. I prefer Rachel Bilson in a WW costume to this.

Yeah, I was like "Maybe if the pants were less shiny? And/or darker blue?"

I think I expected a modern, minimal take on the costume, so that was surprising.
We've had gorgeous spring weather for two days, which is great except for the allergies that came with it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Taking a moment... and I'm done. Man, that was a great reveal and a classic ep.
Maybe it won't look so cheap in the finished product? Yeah, I got nothing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
She sort of looks like a patriotic dominatrix.
Whether this is good or bad... well that's a matter of personal taste.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Any thoughts on the new wonder woman costume?
(1) Cheap tacky shiny costume that looks like a $15 Halloween costume.
(2) THE BOOTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE RED.
(3) The lasso looks awful.
(4) The bracelets are supposed to be gold metal, not silver plastic.
I know I just came off like Comic Book Guy, but seriously. Gah.
I'm okay with the pants-ness; I've always wondered why the dudes get pants (or tights/leggings/whatever) and the women don't (or get fishnets). (And yes, I know there are exceptions, so I do not need them pointed out to me [I love you Cassandra Cain Batgirl]; I was speaking in generalities.)
It looks like a bad joke. (Also, since I'm being generally negative, the lipstick is awful.)
t edit Also, barely relatedly, I just learned tonight that Superboy (Kon, *not* Clark Kent as a teen) has his own title again. I had no idea! I need to get to the comic store NOW.
