This.

I am so routinely, routinely annoyed about these kinds of things. For fuck's sake, did you hear about the guy who was on death row for 14 years before he was exonerated and it turned out that something like five prosecutors had intentionally withheld evidence and this particular office had a history of withholding evidence in other cases, and still, the Supreme Court said he couldn't bring a lawsuit? It is not that goddamn easy.

...which I really need to finish sometime this century, because I'm also up for auction at Sweet Charity, so I've kind of got to get my commitments in order.

Anyhoo, a critical external hard drive failed mid-vid - but, as happened once before, I beat it by anticipating the failure and backing up the files in advance. \o/!! (Also, Kein Ayin Hora)

So I'm working on this vid - which is Torchwood - and right now, it's looking like the vid will not have any clips from the episode Meat. The reason the vid will not have any clips from the episode Meat is that I literally cannot bear to watch that episode - I can't even bear to review scenes from it for vidding purposes. I think other people in the fandom find it ridiculous or unrealistic or something, but for me, it's so fucking heartbreaking that it's like a physical pain. It's agonizing to me. And even without sound, even just looking at the images, I can't bear it.

(I feel similarly about the end of AHBL1, but that scene is so crucial to SPN's canon that I have to force myself to review it even though I hate doing so.)

So the vid will probably be Meatless, unless I can get up enough strength to look at the clips again.

.... maybe copyright law isn't such a bad thing, after all.

*facepalm*

So, there was this great moment on Weeds recently, where Nancy plaintively asked something like, "Why is Armageddon coming down on me?" And Andy looked at her and said, kind of incredulously, "It's you, Nancy. It's all you. You're doing it. You have to know that."

It's all Jack.

Also with mention of Supernatural and Xena. Spoilers for CoE...

Okay, leaving aside ... everything else -

...and I have two questions.

1. Why does everyone look vaguely orange?

2. Ummm ... in the first season, didn't the black vans say "Torchwood" on them?
