I will never look at a cravat the same way again

So while hanging out with other Richard Armitage fans I've been made to understand that I'd come at things a bit backward not having watched North & South yet. I've also learned that the N&S fangirls can be a hard-core lot.

Now that I've watched N&S? I get it. I really get it. Mmmmph. *falls over*

The problem with getting it from Netflix is that I had to wait two whole days for the second disc. The horror, I tell you, the inhumanity!

I am still having a hell of a time trying to reconcile that lovely girl with the psycho bitch from "Greeks Bearing Gifts".

But mostly? *gurgle* *flail* *falls over*

To me, North & South still means Patrick Swayze. Mmm....

I had not heard of this N&S myself until recently which is WRONG BAD WRONG. It did fairly well in the UK (and my fairly well I mean the fangirls broke the BBC's message board) but I guess it just didn't get the proper airing here it deserved or something. It probably doesn't help that the US DVD cover is boring, especially compared the the UK version.

Cranston, which is airing on Masterpiece Theatre currently (on my PBS station at least) is from the same author, Elizabeth Gaskell. Though it's more of a comedy.

I'm heartbroken by what Patrick Swayze is going though now; it's very hard to be optimistic about his diagnosis.
