Although not strictly vampire-themed and also sadly lacking in the Sexy Priests Who Kill People department, LXG has made it on my playlist purely because I was in the mood for the wonderfully snarky and intolerably gorgeous Dorian Gray, a character who has done much to lessen my desire to kick Stuart Townsend in the nuts for his part in making me sit through QotD. Still, him being snarky to Secret Agent!Tom Sawyer is all kinds of funny. Poor sad Tom Sawyer. Also, seriously, what is up with Roxula's accent? Obviously when he's the Phantom, it's all generic Eastern European, and that's fine, because if 24 has taught me anything, it's that all villians come from Eastern Europe, but the rest of the time it switches from upper-class to working-class English for no obvious reason and it makes me cross with it's fakosity. Because, you know, Mr Hyde, Captain Nemo and Tom Sawyer teaming up to Fight Crime is totally believable, but stupid accents piss me off.

In other news concerning things that rule, Big Wolf on Campus is awesome. Santa's evil younger brother trying to steal Christmas, a superhero that starts fires to get attention and a demon stealing souls at a high school election are exactly what TV should be all about. That, and snide remarks about Tom Cruise and the Star Wars prequels.

So, Richard Roxburgh.

Dracula in Van Helsing.

Moriarty in LXG.

And also, apparently, Holmes in the BBC version of Hound of the Baskervilles, which Jonathan informed me sucks more penis than an entire churchload of altarboys.

It doesn't help that, every time someone mentions Dracula, I feel compelled to yell 'The Napolean of the Undead!' while making dramatic gestures.

When I was in college, some of us spent three hours creating a chart that proved the centre of the world was Ken Barlow. I feel tempted to do the same with Sherlock Holmes.

That could be the urge to procrastinate kicking in, though.

Damn.
