Numb3rs: "Pay For Play"

I'm not as impressed by this one, partly because the title gives too much away.
yo! they is spoilers here, man )
I dunno, I just found this episode all sorts of vaguely annoying.

Numb3rs: Atomic No. 33

Sam Carter is standing in for Larry in my icon.
What does it say about my own geekiness that when I saw the title of this episode, I went into my bedroom to look at the periodic table poster on my wardrobe, in order to look up which element was atomic number 33?
and the element is... )

Numb3rs: Endgame

So, it turns out that "Endgame" was a sequel after all; it just wasn't a sequel to "Checkmate".
I'm too tired and fuzzy to really say much about this one...
Does that little scene at the end mean that Colby has baggage that he's dealing with too?

Numb3rs: Checkmate

What with the following episode being called "Endgame", I was expecting this to be a two-parter. The episode was okay, but it felt like it was all going over old ground, nothing new.
spoilers )
Maybe I'm just too hot and tired. (sigh)

Numb3rs: "Black Swan"

Now, this one was more like it. More plain character stuff, and a deeper mystery.

Numb3rs: Power

I'd have to class this episode as "okay". Nothing really spectacular. Larry was good, as usual.

Numb3rs: "Breaking Point"

Not quite as riveting as the previous one, but it had its moments.

Numb3rs: Graphic

I assume this is the episode which people have mentioned as being set (and filmed?) at a convention, yes? Good to see that it wasn't full of "point and stare at these weird people" which could easily have happened.

Numb3rs: Tabu

I have only one thing to say: I ♥ Larry. 8-)

Numb3rs: Primacy

With a title like "Primacy", I was expecting this one to be about prime numbers, so I was rather pleased that it was about spoiler ) instead.

Numb3rs: "In Security"

What a twisted tale that was. I kind of lost track who was selling out whom at the end.

Numb3rs: Velocity

Okay, that was nicely geeky. I loved the mechanical engineer! He's got the poetic streak of Larry, but with his own quirks. There he'd be getting on swimmingly with someone, and then he'd obliviously drop a clunker. Hee!

My Evening: What I Did

Thanks y'all for polling. What I ended up doing was
- making a strawberry-banana Optifast smoothie
- reading more of "An Assembly Such as This" while drinking it
- putting in a load of washing
- watching two episodes of Numb3rs; I rewatched "The Janus List" and then I watched "Trust Metric".
spoilers for Janus List and Trust Metric )
But it makes me realize that I may not be able to do the ficlet for [livejournal.com profile] izhilzha because I feel so utterly daunted at the idea of writing Larry. I can't! Waaaah!

Numb3rs: "Killer Chat"

I just finished watching this. The "A" plot was almost irrelevant; what knocked my socks off was the "B" plot. Larry and Charlie and Megan; especially Larry and Charlie. People matter. Relationships matter. Friendship matters. Wow.

Random stuff

While I was sick, I was watching the first season of Numb3rs. I like, I like! I ♥ Larry, and Charlie, and Don, and Alan. I love how Charlie and Larry relate everything in the world to maths and physics. The science geek in me is squeeing at how much of the science is correct (if sometimes oversimplified). (Ionizing radiation! Electron orbits! Binary data envisaged as millions of coins flipping head or tails!)

So yesterday, I tried to find the second season on DVD, and I couldn't find it anywhere. So I finally resorted to ordering it from Amazon, but that means I have to wait weeks before I can watch season 2. Wah!

In other news, I have decided that my favourite Tim Tams are Double Coated and the new Honeycomb Crunch (thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sallymn for pointing out its existence).
