dreaming... life...
So, as mentioned... earlier, somewhere, I was tagging my deadjournal ficspam (most of which has gone on to be finished, yay), and I happened to look at my bio there.
I call myself Lyssie the Great.
Which brings to mind being mocked sometime over the last two months by someone who said I was 'the Great'. Hrm.
In other news, I was watching St. Elsewhere the other day, and I gotta know: why isn't this show on dvd? It wasn't the best thing EVER, but it was damned good. I mean, hell, the show has the best ending ever. I don't think anyone has ever topped it.
Ever.
(ever must be my new favorite word)
And, sorry E.R. fans, but I can't remember shit about E.R., but even now, I can remember tons of crap about St. Elsewhere. ER=soap opera. SE=drama with comedy. SE also has the distinction of slowly sending out people to eat other fandoms. Terrence Knox was Dr. Peter White, he went on the be Sarge in Tour of Duty (oh! Another show they should put on fucking dvd). Mark Harmon was a plastic surgeon who found God, he's now Gibbs on NCIS. Ronny Cox came in as the new hospital admin, and fucked Mark's wife; he went on to play a bombastic Starship captain in Next Generation AND Senator "I'm an asshat, ask me how" Kinsey on SG-1. Stephen Furst was Dr. Elliot, and he went on to play the panfantabulous Vir Cotto on Babylon Five. And then there's Denzel Washington.
sigh. I miss the days when this show was on.

I wish I could reconstruct his explanation of how one episode, about the recurring amnesiac played by Oliver Clark (Joe Carruthers in Ernest Saves Christmas), involved no less than six inter-related layers of reality, which encompassed shows from The Mary Tyler Moore Show to I Dream of Jeannie.
