Glasses are hot - another picpsam

[woolly_socks]

Finally I got round to finishing the glasses-are-hot picspam!

If who you want to see isn't here, they might be in my original epic glasses spam, or the epilogue. Or the dedicated David Tennant one (if what you're looking for is David Tennant, of course *g*).

Disclaimer: Number of pictures not relative to hotness of subject. May contain pictures of people old enough to be your parents. Not dial-up friendly.

Thanks heaps to those who gave me pics, especially morebliss and malnpudl who gave me lots and lots.

Ahh, everyone's gotta start somewhere.

[smercy.livejournal.com]

sorry, but I kinda have to hijack this thread.

lifetime's known as being the battered women's network. every week they make a made-for-tv movie that's all about how one woman dramatically escapes her terrible life.
I mean, the stuff is routinely about the woman that was in an abusive relationship (and they usually grab up the middle-aged actresses that want quick, cheap money and have a hard time finding work, mary mcdonnell was in one of them, even.) and then her husband burns the house down, and then she has to run dramatically from it in a bathrobe, and then he disappears into the sunset to dramatically capture their adorable child and she has to take a kitchen knife and defend herself, but she only nicks him and he gets away and then there's a terribly-dressed beach scene and she meets a brand new man but he's either secretly in cahoots with the evil ex or better than prince charming and they have an awkwardly-lit bad sex scene complete with full-on crying and she eventually triumphs and walks confidently into the sunset.
or, they're about some AMAZINGLY CONTROVERSIAL SUBJECTS.
I dunno, it's kind of like bad porn. so addictive to watch.
and they have these RIDICULOUS TITLES.

real life examples:
mother, may I sleep with danger?
she woke up pregnant
my stepson, my lover
missing!
when husband's cheat
the babysitter's seduction
mother trucker
calendar girl, cop, killer? the bambi bembenek story
(they usually end with the "a (name) story"

YOU SHOULD GOOGLE IT.
'CAUSE IT'S SERIOUSLY SO MUCH FUN.

Oh GOD. It sounds like some kind of horrible tacky nightmare. /o\

[smercy.livejournal.com]

IT IS. BUT IT IS BRILLIANTLY TACKY.
YOU HAVE TO SEE TO BELIEVE.

fry and I once watched the mary one.
oh damn, it was so terrible.
we both literally cried.
I wish I could bottle up that experience and send it to you.

I mean, it's so inexplicably popular that they have an entire lifetime movie network CHANNEL.
it's not basic cable, but still!

I guess that's what you get with a large population? /rationalisation

Is Callum in any of them? I bet he is. Playing the evil ex-husband.

Do you and Fry know each other IRL?

[smercy.livejournal.com]

oh, there are hundreds and hundreds of tv channels. basic cable has almost 100.
and then extended cable gets you about 500 more.
and then you can get hbo for 20 more.
and then showtime/starz for more.
and that's not counting the pay-per view channels for movies.
and the pay sports channels.
and the porn channels.
and then the foreign import channels.
and I don't even have satellite tv, just cable.
oh, and then if you've got a hi def tv, you can get hi def tv channels.
it's fucking CRAZY.

I'll check.
lifetime tends to use more of the washed up american sitcom stars than the vancouver crew, though.
checking.
nope, nothing.
however, mary mcdonnell has TWO lifetime original movies.
nola, 2003: "Aspiring songwriter Nola ditches her abusive home life in Kansas to seek fame and fortune in New York City. She's hoping to find a career - and her biological father! Adjusting to her new digs, quirky friends and a waitressing gig isn't easy, but she's determined to succeed. You'll love this modern Cinderella story."
also: for all time, 2000: "Charles Lattimer is an everyday man facing middle age and a marriage coming to an end, who stumbles across a time slip, that occurs on one of his regular train journeys (as the train goes through a tunnel) coming across an antique watch, he learns it allows him to get off the train during the time-slip, whereupon he finds himself back in the 1890s. Before long he finds a new found love, and purpose there. But complications occur when first the portal back too the past starts to close with his timepiece breaking soon after, leading to decision that could leave him stranded out of his own time."

and the fantastically awful one that fry and I watched together, I can't tell if it's a lifetime movie or not, but we saw it on the lifetime movie network.
woman undone, 1996.
"Terri Hansen is discovered in the desert beside the blackened husk of her car which contains the charred corpse of her husband. When forensic evidence makes her out to be her husband's murderer, she quietly protests her innocence, but makes no effort to mount a defense. Terri doesn't expect to be believed. Was it self-defense or murder? While Terri acts strangely indifferent to her own fate, her attorney tries to reconstruct what happened. The moral ambiguity and the unfathomable mysteries of the human heart are just the sort of thing her attorney had hoped to leave behind him when he left big city law. In flashback, we see Terri's story."

and nope. we did it entirely through liveblogging.
I would do it in person, but we live quite far apart.
she's so great...

HOPE THIS HELPS

o_O I don't know if 'helps' is the word I'd choose! Jeebus.

We have six TV channels, not counting cable. I don't know how many cable channels there are, cos we don't have any of them. Maybe thirty? Judging by what's listed in newspapers and magazines, anyway.

At our house we usually just watch DVDs, or download stuff. The TV that we do watch tends to be competitive reality TV that we inadvertently get hooked on. Stuff like Dancing With the Stars and Project Runway. I kind of have a love/hate relationship with those shows, but at least it doesn't make me want to hack people up with blunt scissors, like the crap you have described above! I'm currently severely addicted to the Australian So You Think You Can Dance.

[smercy.livejournal.com]

we have too many tv channels.
and we don't even get them all.

I don't watch any reality tv, except for the stuff I inadvertently catch that my mum puts on at night.
and stuff that fry bugs me to watch.
I like to keep up with her.

oh, and *hug*

you really should try to see at least one lifetime movie. they're hilariously awesome. unintentionally. that's the best kind.
