Everything

My eyes are still hurting from crying so much this morning- LOL Thanks a lot silverelf ;-)

Haven't watched HP yet, but I'm going to start at the end with the HP3 footage and work backwards. heehee! Survivor on the other hand... wow... I'm a Rupert chick all the way... so that was sad. Though there's no question how I'm voting on Thursday! Bwahahaha! It was... wow... it was definitely interesting the whole way through. I find the Rob/Amber thing to be both strange and adorable.
I really love the off-series friendships and all that develop from the experience... and especially with this one as it spanned multiple seasons and people knew each other ahead of time. VERY interesting. But I'm glad the first real love story happened on all-stars. And I squealed with happiness to hear that Richard found someone, too! Yeah, I know most people don't like him but I always have and awwwww! I'm glad he found a guy to be happy with Squeee! But I'm still voting for Rupert. He's the man. He played back-to-back Survivors which no one else did... and had such a range of strength and emotion and honor and integrity and came SO close. Yeah. Totally Rupert.

Eyes hurt... feels so much better to close them... LOL I just wrote a Sirius/Remus story about that, come to think of that. LOL (nonsneezefic)

I actually saw the "making of" HP3 thing during Crossing Jordan commercials. Yay, now I don't feel so left out.

I stopped watching this Survivor after the first couple episodes because I started working on Thurs nights but I did see the last hour and a half or so and like what I saw. Made me wish I could have watched the whole series...There just now coming out with the first season on DVD. Not that I would buy it but maybe I'll have to wait for this one to come out to catch up.

All-Stars was definitely different. The first season is still my all-time favorite. But that's because I loved Richard Hatch and got to gloat to everyone that I was right all along when he won. LOL

But All-Stars was interesting... very painful to watch at times (they went without fire and drinking water for something like 4 days). And having 3 different tribes made the dynamics a lot different. It went down to 2... then finally to 1. And the first ever series romance... from people who started out not liking each other... and my boy Rupert *G* I'd definitely say it's worth a rent when it finally comes out on DVD :-)

Oh, and glad you saw some of that! YAY! I still haven't watched it yet, but it's on my list for tomorrow. 'A Wrinkle in Time' is on tomorrow- was one of my favorite books as a kid. Must tape that on the same tape after HP :-)

Like I said I did watch the first couple episodes of All Stars. I hadn't watched the previous series with Rupert but I had heard a lot about him and thought his alliance or relationship or whatever you want to call it with Richard was hillarious...Yeah, just thought I'd share.

Hey, I'm right along there with you. So at least you're not suffering alone. :-p LOL

Aww, I was happy with the finale. I HATED what Jenna did to Rupert, though. I was yelling at the TV in all sorts of languages, and my family was kind of looking at me with that "..." expression on their faces. Ahem. I'm not a nut at all.
But I LOVE the idea of giving another million away, and I loved how, after Jeff said what they were doing, Susan said "It's Rupert!" and Jenna was like "Can we just count everyone wearing tie-dye as Rupert's votes?" LOL And Rupert's gotta be feeling excited. I think he knows he's loved. I hope he wins. Heh, my brother, after Jeff said they're casting for Survivor ten, started laughing and was like "Rupert's thinking 'I'M IN!'" which made me laugh.

I can't believe I forgot to tape the Harry Potter dealy! I'm so angry with myself! *grumps*

Most of the special footage, Dan/Emma/Rup spots, and the POA exclusive are all online now at the various HP fan sites. So you should be able to see them there.

I was NOT pleased with Jenna at all. What's worse is she sat down with him and told him of the offer and said she WOULDN'T do it before she'd actually made up her mind about it... and then did it anyway. That's just NOT right. But Rupert's such a big teddy bear. He totally forgave her. *sigh* I'm still angry at her, though.

Oh, I know! LOL! On the Survivor site there's a graph of approval ratings from the fans and Rupert's line is above everyone else's easily. heehee! He played back-to-back Survivors... went through so many problems... and still managed to get to the final 4. That's pretty damn cool in my book! I really hope he wins- he deserves it!
