WELP. Tomorrow I am going to attempt to tackle Hercule Poirot. Jaysus. My mom would be really proud of me for 'broadening my horizons' from the snarky comedy and zombie/post-apocalypse genres to sit through Agatha Christie. Which is to say, 'please, J-Dub, please, J-Dub, pleeeeeeeeeeease, please, please, pleeeeeeeeeease make this interesting by your very presence and acting prowess.' I have a feeling my ass will fall asleep from sitting on the couch, but I will report later and give you the 411. Send a search party out if I'm not back in 24 hours; I may have fallen into the Masterpiece Mystery! vortex. *winks and points knowingly at you* Thanks, kids.

Oh God. Can you tell I'm digging in my heels? Ha--I wrote the last post on this TEN DAYS AGO. Sheesh, already. Okay!! I have new resolve! I'm going to kick this Cameron-style from 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off': "Poirot will keep calling me, he'll keep calling me until I watch 'Third Girl'. He'll make me feel guilty....This is, uh---this is ridiculous. Okay, I'll go. I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, what---I'LL GO. S**T!!"

Okay, hold on to your hats because this doesn't happen very often: I. STAND. CORRECTED. I am almost embarrassed. I got SUCKED IN! Poirot was absolutely awesome. I couldn't stop watching. I watched the whole thing in one go. Poirot, I am so sorry for misjudging you, sir. Yes, I'm a jackass. Fact. But wow.....JW plays a real DICtator in this (read between the lines there, thinly-veiled swear word). I won't give away spoilers, but at the end, when he says what he says to the main character (the 'third girl'), I was like, "WHOAAAA, Nellie. If she didn't kill herself before, she probably will now!" Haaaaaaaa. Really, this is a great, gripping mystery, and once again, I'm the jerk for being all over it. And JW is pretty to look at--he really has aged well, I have to say that again. Two thumbs up!
