I Do Love Me Some Of That Irish Mob

[sophieisgod]

Okay, so due to a combination of persistent reccomendations and all-consuming boredom, I caved and watched the pilot of The Black Donnellys. And it's pretty damn good.

The basic premise is that these four Boston Irish brothers (named Jimmy, Tommy, Kevin and Sean... Stereotyping? You decide) get into scrapes. But, like, really hardcore scrapes. With heroin and guns and robbery and stuff. We have the badass brother, the slutty brother, the comedy fool brother and the good brother who will inevitably be dragged down by his other, naughtier brothers. Now, this may sound cliched and heinous, but the execution is slightly more subtle than it sounds.

Anyway, I pretty much liked all four of the brothers, and Jonathan Tucker is HAWT. I really do seem to have a thing for pale freckly guys. With cheekbones. Who may or may not be wearing blusher.

I also found this
picpsam through three_nails. Tasty.

And they used Arcade Fire. I heart it.

Ooh err. CSI. CSI:NY. Ugly Betty if you want to watch something just for laugh (I need to with all the drama in my other shows!). And season 1 of Veronica Mars (but not further). Ooh; the American Office? Supernatural.

Wow. And at first I thought you already saw all my shows.
