I started watching SyFy’s Being Human when it first premiered with pretty high hopes since I had heard the British version was amazing. Unfortunately, it didn’t really work for me and I often found myself bored or disinterested in the storyline as well as with the characters. After a few episodes, I quit and no longer watched. It wasn’t until recently that I decided to give the Brit version a go and oh my, am I ever glad I did. The hubs and I are now certifiably hooked with all 3 past seasons on Netflix instant. One particular draw (aside from a much more believable cast and script) is the Irish hottie mchottiepants, Aidan Turner, who plays the UK’s irresistible vampire, Mitchell. And even better? I just discovered he will be playing the young dwarf, Kili, in The Hobbit films. Score.

The Hunger Games Mall Event – Miami/Ft. Lauderdale
Let me begin. I’m a huge Hunger Games fan. I am so in love with this fandom and their passion. I was planning on attending the Hunger Games mall event yesterday in Westfield Broward as just that…a fan. I did not expect to be picking up a press badge, but it was a pleasant surprise. I loved being able to watch the fans in action from our riser. It was honestly my favorite part. So many 3-fingered salutes, smiles and squeals. It was infectious.

Happy Hump Day: Scott Speedman
Everyone got to know Scott Speedman on a little show called Felicity back in the late 90’s, but I was never one of them. I guess I was just too cool for J.J. Abrams back then (blasphemer). The first time I laid eyes on Mr. Speedman was in the Underworld films, where he plays Michael Corvin, one hot piece of werewolf. So beyond gorgeous photos like the ones I feature below came as no surprise to me – apparently those Felicity fans don’t remember him being quite so hunky. Just proves my theory that men only get better with age (too bad the same cannot be said of us – sigh).
