Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Battlestar Galactica share the same composer (all hail Bear McCreary), and an occupation with artificial life/humanity interaction, both lethal and not, apocalypse, dreams, and various takes on religion. They're still quite different shows. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
charmax, one of the best vidders around, has now posted a vid taking on both shows, their similarities and differences, and Charles Darwin. It's awesome. (And not spoilery beyond basic premises for both shows.):
Unnatural Selection

She's usually associated with Four in the fannish consciousness, but Sarah Jane Smith started her stint as a companion in Three's era, and I really enjoyed this absolutely adorable Three and Sarah Jane pic spam . (Also, those photos of baby!Sarah Jane remind me again that Elisabeth Sladen is one of these enviable women who look even better when older; as a young woman, she's cute, but today, she's gorgeous.)

Another trailer/featurette for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, which reminds me that it can be very relaxing to be fond of something without being actually in the fandom. I enjoyed the books. Very occasionally, I read fanfic (and also enjoy it). I like the movies in varying degrees. But I've never been compelled to participate in fannish wars, and each time I stumble across yet another reference about shipping feuds, Marauders versus Snape, JKR stole my cookies, and what not, I feel relieved. As for HBP, it's probably the weakest book of the seven, but it had a lot I enjoyed, for example, both the opening chapters, the one with the Muggle PM, and the one with theMitford Black sisters and Snape; Horace Slughorn (together with Phineas Nigellus the example of non-evil adult Slytherins who have never been Death Eaters - they do exist!); all the Harry and Dumbledore interaction; Harry fanboying the Prince of the title as long as he doesn't know who it is (bad pun, JKR, bad pun, which makes it fun); Draco Malfoy, after five books as a one-note none too successful bully, finally becoming interesting and more dimensional; and the big showdown from the moment Dumbledore starts talking to Draco. I can't wait to see Alan Rickman act out THE scene. Bring it on!
