Parade’s End (BBC/HBO)

I just learned how to use iMovie. I know, I know…behind the times. But as a celebration, I’m uploading one of my favourite small and oft-overlooked funny moments from A Scandal In Belgravia.
John’s punchline kills me. Martin Freeman, your deliveries are made of gold.

Watching BBC 2’s Arena documentary on William Golding. Benedict is reading passages from his novels. This man needs to record the audio version of every book ever.
Just saying.
ETA: They interviewed him to for Rites of Passage (Book One of the To The Ends of The Earth trilogy). I could also listen to him talk characters and literature all day.

Perhaps no character demonstrates this better than Spike. Played by James Marsters, he’s one of the best characters created for TV.

If you haven’t seen the special sneak peak of the Comedy Bang! Bang! TV show on IFC, here it is! It stars Hot Saucerman, of course, and Reggie Watts with guest appearances by Adam Scott and Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber (Paul F. Thompkins with his cape!). I may be biased but I thought it looked amazing. Scott and crew did an awesome job. Heads up for Dr. Reginald Watts. Awesome!

sassafras-ash:

Edelstein and I don’t always agree, but this review has made me need to make it to the Maple before I...

Who’s more fun making out with Megan Fox or Amy Poehler?
