The Black Donnellys

I did watch the pilot when I saw that it was Paul Haggis show, being a big Due South fan and all. I guess you could say it's an Irish version of the Sopranos, except on network TV. Like Due South, it utilizes music really well (great mix of music in the pilot) , and it looked a lot like Due South as far as the lighting and sets. Did I like it? I liked it well enough to watch it next week, but I'm not head over heels for it. It's not really my cup of tea as far as the genre with all the violence and the leads being criminals. But the characters were engaging. So I'll give it another shot next week.

Oh, and on a totally unrelated note, the term Black Irish -- the show used it exactly like an Irish friend of mine explained back when I was a teenager. So I was right. I'd used the term in fanfic I'd written, and someone commented that it didn't mean what I thought it meant, so not being sure after that, I removed the reference. I should have left it in. If it's good enough for Paul Haggis... [g]

Source Caps

I couldn't get the amount of caps down to below 40, so I tried something new and uploaded them to a photo service as opposed to one by one using LJ's photo thingie.

So I think if you click this link, you should see all the caps I've uploaded. I sure hope so, since I've been working on this for hours! I just picked ones that grabbed my fancy, and I really did try to include a few of Duncan (Really, Pat, I did!)

If you click on the cap, it takes you to a slightly bigger version, and then there's a menu bar that says 'all sizes' -- clicking that gives you the largest version.

Hope you enjoy them.

And Now For The Icons

I made a few icons to share while I was uploading caps. there's no rhyme or reason to them, just took a few caps and tried being all arty [g] If you want one, feel free to snag it. Just let me know if you would. and if there's something you want text on, I can add something. I just suck at picking text for icons, so I tend not to. I'm not very pithy.

I'll add them to the Icon Adoption Page soonish.
