Cripes. First Steve Irwin gets killed by a stingray while doing a bit for TV, now Top Gear's Richard Hammond is seriously injured in a crash while recording for the show.
First ACK NO. I love Top Gear and I don't even much care about cars and now I feel all sad. Secondly, am I the only one wondering if we're seeing the start of a trend here? 'Obejcts of TV shows strike back'? What's next?
Poor family, though. I hope he recovers.
In other extremely non-important news, I watched House last night and think I do like. Not instant love, but entertaining enough that I'll keep watching.And not ship anyone. Nope.
Blah blah work.

Very odd phenomenon, not shipping, I'm trying to work out if it means I've grown up, characters just dont have that romantic chemistry, or it's some sort of internal backlash to the batshit insaneness of fandom.

Date: 2006-09-21 10:41 am (UTC)Whether or not they're nice, they have at least brought amusement for me, so I feel sad regardless.
Wouldn't be surprised if it's a backlash - I know I've decided not to ship anything House-related due to the batshitness of that fandom. And sometimes, your brain just doesn't go in that direction, I think. Other times it does.

(I ship House/everyone, though not all at the same time. Just at odd moments.)

I have caught the odd snippet of House, and I like it well enough. Plotwise, I like it, but I have yet to get used to Hugh's accent. I miss George! Why must House be a yank?

Date: 2006-09-21 01:09 pm (UTC)I know, it is sad! The accent doesn't bother me, but I just think how much more glorious it would be in a British accent. Mmm. Droolage.
But still fun.

House S1 is awesome, but then S2 sucks a lot, but S3 is being much better. *pets*

They've apparently brought me up on this little e-mail group they have. I'm surprised it took them this long to find the wankimplosion, but ah well.

Date: 2006-09-21 11:00 pm (UTC)We all ship the same ship, but it's not to the point of batshit. We actually agree on all the ships of the tv shows that we watch, and we're always right. I don't get where some people get these ships from. They pull evidence out of nowhere and then proclaim that they still have fanfic, when that's all they had to begin with.
People just confuse me.
