Is anyone watching Happy Town at all? Because it is kind of AWESOME, and I should make a proper pimping post. But not today. Happy Town kind of reminds me of the "My Ainsel" section of American Gods, except told through the townspeople's perspective. It's set in a Great Lake state, AND there is a creepy bird, AND spring thaw festival shenanigans, AND there are even those magic tricks metaphor of which Gaiman was so fond. Availz on Hulu.

A small town in Minnesota is not as happy as the show title would have you believe. What's with these vanished people? What's with that new girl who just moved into town, and what does she REALLY want? The characters are excellent, with lots of familiar faces. Uriel (SPN), for one, playing Uriel. Ruth Fisher (Six Feet Under) playing the Machiavellian town mayor. Cardinal Woolsey (The Tudors) playing a dashing old man with a lot of skeletons in his closet. He owns a store selling a movie memorabilia and it's called--wait for it--THE HOUSE OF USHERS <33333. And don't get me started on Henley's reined-in chutzpah, or TC the reluctant sheriff, or the merry widows <333, or the Stiviletto brothers. THIS COULD'VE BEEN MY NEW SHOW. WHY SO PREMATURELY CANCELING, ABC? Do we have a movement to save it yet?

Hey, I'm posting SPN 5.22 thoughts, after all. )

Sorry if I'm spamming ya'll, I'm just consolidating.


Halo Above My Head
American Pie. Kevin/Oz. R.
The fic was inspired by one of the deleted scenes on the DVD where Finch, Oz, and Jim visit their old high-school, deserted for summer hols, to either reminisce or lure Kevin out of sulkitude. I'm not sure, the context wasn't clear. There's tension when Oz finally finds Kevin, and I (and my permanently attached slash-tinted glasses) immediately took it to mean that they must be having sex.

this is something new )
