House
Cuddy and House meta Cuddy and House meta, spoilers up to the latest s5 episode. What she said!
The Pretender:

astrogirl2 is watching the show for the first time. I never was a passionate fan, but I enjoyed what episodes I saw and I did love Miss Parker. (No surprises there, if you know my character types.) So reading her reviews made me look for fanfiction again:
Heels: great Parker character portrait by drabble. No spoilers.
Roommates: a Buffy crossover in which we discover Miss Parker went to college with Jenny Calender. Lovely ironies abound. No spoiler for Pretender, definitely spoilers for the second season of BTVS.
Starved of Oxygen: Miss Parker and Jarod, the light side. Manages to be completely ic and yet give them a relaxed moment in between the usual Pretender angst. No spoilers beyond the basic set-up of the show.
The Distance That Keeps: Miss Parker, Jarod, and for that matter the rest of the ensemble: the dark side. This, by contrast, is darkfic of the purest oder. Has spoilers for all four seasons.
And lastly, no fandom:
An excellentJohn Simm interview, apropos a new historical miniseries, The Devil's Whore, which he's starring in. Also covers the rest of his career. There is a clip from the series - written by the same man who's responsible for Our Friends in the North, which is promising -, and the anecdote Simm tells about his son disguising himself as a Doctor Who character (not who you think) cracks me up.
