Stargate/Sentinel rec; SPN/NCIS promo

[erilyn]

I've been re-reading some old favourites in Sentinel fandom (I will never ever not love Jim/Blair) as well as a few new-to-me stories. This is probably the best thing I found, and while it's not new, it may be new to some other people too.

Lovely - Sentinel/Stargate crossover by Martha (of Snake Oil and many other great stories).
Daniel goes looking for peace in the aftermath of "Absolute Power" and "The Light." Unfortunately, he goes looking for it in The Most Dangerous City in America. A Sentinel/Stargate crossover, gen, around 300k.

Such great characterisation, blending of shows *and* an interesting plot. Plus...an equally awesome sequel, that adds in Angelverse (and it works! who would have thought?), continuation of interesting plot, and slash! I love long stories that you can sink your teeth into and don't disappoint.

Tatters - It's four months after Lovely and everything's back to normal. More or less. Longer than Lovely, I think.

I must admit, I wasn't as squeeful as many over the Channel 10 SPN 'button' promos a little (sure, they were cute, but...), so I hadn't rushed off to check out the new station promos, until iibnf mentioned that there was cute NCIS stuff in an ad. Thanks to youtube, I found a minute long ad that has SPN and NCIS (plus more), and it's all adorable!

Now, do I finally watch last week's House (or the last three SPN), or rewatch some NCIS...?

The promo is so cute. Also, wow, mark Harmon looks so good in black and white.

Guess what's winning over House and SPN in tonight's viewage? I also still need to find stuff to make icons from - but caps of my S2 dvds are *craptacular* (they play badly on the computer, so weird).

[sinden.livejournal.com]

Hee. really? I'm going to indulge in some Ryan Reynolds and his abs of steel in Blade 3 before I head off to bed.

Are you getting the blurring thing that dvds sometimes do? Does using a different media player work?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, I'm busting out second half of S3, except I'm just checking the S2 dvds again. Still muddy and grainy (way less quality than the avi files) and the caps through PowerDVD are even worse, and the aspect ratio is incorrect.

Can't get the disc to play through anything else so far.

[sinden.livejournal.com]

Weird. I'll try and remember to have a look see tomorrow night to see how it plays on mine. Might be a difference between the US and Australian discs.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

They play fine on the tv. I'm totally getting the S3 US discs, after getting burned by the lack of extras on S2.

[sinden.livejournal.com]

I always chck first now because of the way they tend to not put stuff on.

[sinden.livejournal.com]

Mine's a little grainy, but not and issue if you want to take it down to icon size because the caps are 800+ x 400+. I ran it through VLC.

You NEED to watch the latest SPN, because it's more awesome than words can express. I can't even talk about it, it's that good. :-)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

NCIS won, partially cause I can watch that while on AIM *g*. But soon, I promise!

I used to love House, but my interest has been waning this season due to plotlines that make me want to throw things at the tv.

I heard about the 10 promo via Spn but hadn't seen until then ! The NCIS bits are very cute (particularly Tony & McGee). Thanks for the link.

I saw a short all-NCIS one on Ten today, think it had some different clips in it - ha, here it is - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRe2B6UnACA

It's ridiculous, I'm watching network promos on youtube, cause I don't watch enough tv regularly to be sick of them ;)

[leyna55.livejournal.com]

As someone who just saved a copy of the first one I saw actually on 10 rather then youtube (Abby finally getting a longer comment plus the spn boys) - er yes, I can relate.

Also, thanks for that link (hadn't seen that one either)-NCIS makes me happy and the promos are very cute.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

The same person at youtube as other little promos and adbreak things uploaded, they are all too cute. http://www.michaelweatherly.net/?page_id=16 has some of them uploaded too.

NCIS is a newish obsession for me, fell into the show through my sister and it has EATEN MY BRAIN *g*.
