Just. too. cute.

As noted in A Crayon Haiku #74 and the attendant Scary-Crayon blog entry, I really, really would like to stop watching this awful show. But I can't. And why not? Because Allison Mack is just too cute. Argh.

I was about to draw a parallel between my viewing of "Smallville" and many women watching "The Oprah Winfrey Show" -- despite both programs being undeniably terrible and headache-inducing -- but I don't think it's a proper comparison. True, women swoon over Oprah, but I don't think they're doing it in quite the same way. Unless, of course, they are.

Ick.

Madballs Series 2!

And with that brilliant segue into disgusting subject matter comes our other news -- which I suppose isn't really news if you've been keeping up with Scary-Crayon. The good folks at Basic Fun stumbled upon my review of the Series 1 Madballs and were kind enough to hook me up with an advance set of the Series 2 'balls! (Thanks again, y'all! :mrgreen: ) So here's the review of those! I love Madballs even more than Allison Mack.

I was about to suggest perhaps combining Miss Mack and Madballs into an even greater entity, but somehow I don't think that would work very well.

    I've endured much Smallvile watching with T.A.B and he doesn't even like it.

    Allison Mack has a certain kind of charm I like her better than Kristin Kruk.

    And yes, combining Ms. Mack with Madballs would be a wicked bad idea. 🙂

    Wait -- if you don't like the show and TAB doesn't like the show, then why are y'all watching? Something tells me TAB's not in it for the Allie Mack factor. And yes, she does have a certain natural, inviting charm about her, whereas Kristin Kreuk has this otherworldly alien vibe about her that I find sort of off-putting. It's entirely possible that that's a function of their acting and characters' personalities, but even so Allie Mack still wins with me.

    I suspect that crossing Allie with Madballs would leave us with something reminiscent of a severed chibi vampire Buffy head. 😉

    I watch the show because I am paid to watch the show (and write about it afterwards).

    What T.A.B said. I just watch to ease his suffering. 🙂

    I kind of like the idea of a chibi vampire Buffy head. 🙂
