PRIMEVAL PRIMER

So there's this team! And they chase dinosaurs around and get snippy when the military contingent want to shoot them. And they are coolness.

Watch the trailer!




This is Nick Cutter. Nick is a Professor and has a sexy accent!


The one with better hair than John Sheppard is Stephen. He tracks things! The other dude is Connor. Connor is a huge geek. I'm not slashing them. I'm not!


Nick and Stephen are inseparable, for reasons that escape me, except hot, and cute and why not. Right now Stephen is saying 'You know those movies where you think the killer's finally dead and then they JUMP RIGHT UP AGAIN?'


Stephen's hair rocks on! And he has a gun! The other guy with the really BIG gun is Ryan. He is laconic, and good natured, and completely unfazed by all the weird shit he's asked to do.


Just because.


Ryan, not obscured by big gun. And because you need to know that the other guy is IN CHARGE. He's a HATCHET MAN for the Home Office. I don't remember his name, but he has lots of antagonism with Nick if you swing that way.


Claudia is from the Home Office and is in charge of the wacky academics. She rocks and I am totally shipping Claudia and Nick.


Our heroes see the dodos! AWWW! Connor looks distracted, because Stephen has just put his hand on his shoulder. Dammit. NOT SLASHING THEM. The blonde chick is a lizard expert and spends a lot of time wandering around in cute knickers. Apart from that she has failed to do anything interesting so far.


OMG DODOS!

We just watched the dodo episode last night.

You're not the only one failing to resist the urge to slash Conner and Stephen (despite the mysterious girlfriend).

I kinda like Abby (blonde, cute knickers), even though she hasn't done much (other than rescue dinosaurs and get chased a lot).

Helen and James (hatchet man) belong together - they're the most reptilian characters on the show. I guess that leaves Nick for Claudia and Abby for the soldier guy.

Abby's crush on Stephen is so lame. And seriously, she's so young I can't even begin to believe Stephen would even notice her.

The plot arc with Helen annoys me so much. I'm really hoping that they do something unexpected and interesting with it but I'm not holding out hope.

I am a moron.

Happy birthday.

PS. Did you know Stephen was in an edipsode of Keen Eddie? Eddie loves basketball was the title.

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
OF COURSE I KNEW THAT. He played Colin Kinney, 'England's premier footballer' and he had mod hair.

I can go you one better with the obscure. NICK played a gay getaway driver in a show called The Thieftakers. The main character of the show, a womanising Scotland Yard detective had to chat him up and get him onside, and ended up pretending to be his boyfriend for his dying father and comforting him and they BONDED and it was REALLY CUTE.

And it was Eddie Loves Baseball.

*makes incoherent noises at the sight of Stephen, and Nick too*

Wherefore did thou acquire this? *goes to test the torrent sites*

prk has been my dealer this time.

[identity profile] akire-yta.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
found a fairly active torrent, that seems to be moving okay

something to look forward to

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 09:51 am (UTC)(link)
Still going okay?

Let us know if you need us to Sort Something Out.

[identity profile] akire-yta.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
it's sitting at 22.5% (damn crappy DL levels - it's great speed, butgets shaped in the blink of an eye)

If I do like it, we may need to indeed sort something out

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-03 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Let me know if you need me to upload the other eps. I only have the YouSendit Upgrade for 12 more days.

[identity profile] akire-yta.livejournal.com 2007-04-03 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
i can't get files off YSI for some reason

anyway, the torrent sped up and came down last night. Unfortunately, my mother is staying with me, so goddess knows when i'll get a chance to watch it.

Was I alone in seeing the big black Range Rovers rock up to the forest and screaming "Torchwood's here, boys!"

Though, if you map it pre-Gwen, it might explain Myfanwy...

and what will it take to get a Stephen a copy of everything Primeval you've got on a disk, snailmail? *hangs up the bribes bag and digs around*

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-04 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
I was going to offer, but I wasn't sure if that was considered too low tech nowadays *g*

email me your addy at sarren@iinet.net.au

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-04 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
This show is JUST LIKE Torchwood. Except for the sex and bitchiness. Oh wait. *eg*

[identity profile] special-trille.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
I freaking love Primeval. Love, love, lovelovelove! Shall I upload ep 6 for you in the hope that you d/l it before netfirms pulls it? Or do you want to grab it off me sometime? (or come over and watch it with me sometime?)

Hatchet Man = Lester.

Stephen/Connor = a million times yes!

[identity profile] sarren.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
I think I should probably come over later tonight to accquire episode 6 and dr who, since they won't download for me.

Unless you are working.

[identity profile] special-trille.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
You should! I'm home now and will be for the rest of the evening. Whenever is convenient for you. If you need to contact me, try texting, otherwise I'll probably only check my mail every so often (I'm rewatching primeval eps!).

Loving Primeval!!!

Loving the dodos lots :)

I liked the underwater creatures too ^_^

*love*

[identity profile] maharetr.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
I am huge with the Primeval love. The
Dodos in particular were so cute, and the ep made me cry too. Although I'm all about the Nick/Stephen love, I'll watch for Stephen/Connor with interest though. Is there a second season, do we know?

[identity profile] victorian-tweed.livejournal.com 2007-04-01 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oh this looks like fun! I think Mr Tweed would like this too.
