Trying to decide if I should try and do the '30 Days of TV' thing that's going around.

In other news, Nin works till 10:30, so I have to figure out what to do with so much alone time.

If you didn't know, [livejournal.com profile] strangevisitor7 won an 'Ezzie' for her story Hell Hath no Fury, which is utterly awesome! Her winning, and the story! And it makes me especially gleeful that Casey got to write a story with her SPN boys, albeit in an AU old west kinda way. Then some extra helpings of glee because she won an award for a story with an OFC as a main character (boo! hiss! icky girlz!), and one who was a love interest to boot! (more hisssssing) Way to go, girlfriend! It was a cracker jack of a story. And lastly, a little bit of glee personally because said OFC was one of my creations (I'm just a wee bit tickled at that). There will be no living with Cecily now!

[throws confetti] Drinks all 'round!

Congrats!

Day 01 - A show that should have never been canceled: Christy.

Christy was a series back in 1994, based on the novel of the same name, starring Kellie Martin, Tyne Daly (who won an Emmy for her role), and Stewart Finlay-McLennan. I'd enjoyed the novel when I was a teenager, but I adored the TV series. It had both Tyne Daly and Kellie Martin, two actresses that I was a fan of, with the added bonus of hunky Scots actor Stewart Finlay-McLennan (hey, I'm shallow!), plus, it was set in the early 20th century and filmed on location in Tennessee. But more than that, the show had heart and soul. This was about real people, who had lived a century before, and it took an unflinching look at poverty in 1912 Appalachia. As an added bonus, there was burning UST between Christy and Neil, that thanks to the show being canceled, was never resolved. This is a show I can watch over and over again, and never tire of it. It was joyful, heartbreaking, and full of love.

Why was it canceled? Well, you see, CBS also had Touched By an Angel, and it was decided that they only wanted one 'Christian show', and TBAA was cheaper to produce, not being a period piece, or a show filmed on location. So Chrsty got the axe so Angel could keep flitting around the countryside. I'm still bitter - can you tell? :P

They finally put out cheap, no extra DVDs a few years back, so I was able to replace my very worn, taped of the TV copies. They also made a miniseries a few years back, picking up where they left off. The only original cast member back was Stewart, but it just didn't have the magic of the original cast. Well, that's what the imagination is for :)

Future Days... )
