There is absolutely no justification for this gif’s existence.
Uhm, yes there is. It is that now I have something to stare at. Hallloooo amazing eyes that were made to look more amazing and I don’t care lalala.
WHO’S UP FOR SOME GILBERT FUN?!
I love how “Gilbert fun” is a tag. I love it. There’s not much variety, but at least it’s there.
Aidan - Funny Faces
Vampires have officially ruined my expectations in men.
[I think I have started to like his mouth because it looks like Deryck Whibley’s. And without the nose, that is an amazingly good thing. Aaahhh. That and he just pulls amazing faces, see above.]
Being Human North America 1x04-12
Yeah. That’s right. I binge-watched my way through this entire first season because that’s how I deal with bad days. I binge-watch the adventures of three supernaturals. Anyhoo. On to the bullet list!
- Ray… I thought he was a total creeper, but at least he wasn’t mean to Sally. That plot twist with the vampire beating was “awesome, bro”.
- Bridget was annoying, why was she so weak? :< I had high hopes for her. And Danny was certainly less of a dickhead than Owen, with his whole “huhu cheating huhu stare at you” business.
- Bloody vamp times, yay. However I always double take everything Rebecca says. I always think it’s a trick.
- WHY DO THESE THREE NEVER TOUCH EACH OTHER?! I saw someone comment on the lack of hugs. Yes. Okay, the no Sally touching is acceptable but no bromance is not good! NOT GOOD.
- Again, annoyed at vamps having reflections and now they’re also showing up on video >:[
- The ring-thing was cool. The ghost-boyfriend was also cool. I’m sad he left! :<
- PRIEST?!?! Aidan can just walk right into a church?! What is this??
- I miss the comedy. However there are some gold oneliners. :D But there could be a little more comedy?
- Bishop was so. bloody. epic. Perfect villain. I love love love that moment where he was so vulnerable and in love and stuff. Did not see that coming. Amazing.
- However Aidan with his wigs… that will never not crack me up. [I think I have come around to accepting his face and mouth though. :’] interesting information, I know.]
- BERNIEEEEEEE and he was even called Bernie! And oh my I did not see those plot twists coming! Much too short of a time! Loved him, he was adorable. And Aidan was so good with him :’< And the neighbours were less scary. And then the others got involved and it was so epic. And then it got sooo sad. Muuhuhuhu.
- Emily, family… also very, very well done. Loved that plot line. Loved Aidan coming into it. Loved that garlic moment.
- Marcus as a character was well fleshed-out. [heh?] Total creeper. Awesome.
- THE ELDERS ARE DUTCH YEEAAAHHHHHH
- Oh yeah, Josh suddenly transformed in the house in epi 08. A little late, but finally a bit of dynamic between him and Sally. I still feel like we missed his whole story telling moment, but at least we got it with Nora.
- NORA! She has endless patience. She has less of the fierceness of Miss Pickering, but she can stand her own. I’m very interested into seeing what will happen. I thought these writers didn’t see beyond UK series 1 but I guess either werewolf-baby is a trope, or they lied and they did watch more. Anyhoo. Excite excite excite!
- Oh that dog fight thing… Very good spin. I’m not sure what my stance is on the CGI. However the old guy, thought he was a nice touch. Aidan not doing anything got on my nerves though.
- The exorcism. Yes. Zombie Sally. Yes!! I cannot wait for better storylines for Sally.
- Rebecca… I often thought she was ‘off’ but she came through in the end. So long, silly girl. Aidan is also very much established as the best crier. Heartbreaking. George and Aidan, if you ever meet up and have a little cry party I think I will die.
- Bishop had so many tricks up his sleeve oh my oh my oh my! I’m going to miss him. [And I did NOT see that coming! Aaahhh amazing!] However, I feel like we didn’t see enough of his “big plan” to be really scared of it. There wasn’t enough pre-fight anticipation in the house with everyone freaking out over what could happen. There wasn’t enough “I am your leader” blabla going on with Bishop being surrounded by lesser vampires. I also want a vampire couple.
- AIDAN HOW IS IT THAT WHEN YOU STAKE SOMEONE THEY DIE WITHIN THREE SECONDS but when you get staked everyone can freak out for half an hour?!?!
[/yes this also bugged me when you did it, Mitchell]and finally, finally we got a little bromance. Hurraahh! - At first I was annoyed at Aidan being very ‘saying one thing, doing the other’. Then I fell in love with how good he was. And then he did go crazy in that whatever-it-is, getting all blood-drunk. The only thing that annoyed me was that he said he was back, and then the next moment he wasn’t really back. How would the other vampires believe him then?
Aidan is pretty much a good guy, he didn’t even want to turn Bernie, he wouldn’t let Josh kill Bishop… but then again he would kill Danny… [loved that haha!] and oh, Celine was great. I’m really really really anticipating what will happen in next.
All in all, I’m hooked. I love it. I really truly love it when something unexpected happens. I hope this will happen a lot in season 2. I love each of the characters in their own way. I will miss Bishop. I am glad I finally started watching, despite my initial apprehension. I hope many other fans can see the qualities of this version and give it a chance.
[I also hope fans of this version will take a look at the original because it is so very different and so very brilliant.]
