Favourite Character(s) - Izzie Stevens

An overwhelming lack of ideas has led to this - every once and a while, I'll write about one of my favourite television characters. Izzie Stevens from Grey's Anatomy seemed like a great place to start, especially since the way the character is viewed can vary from person to person so greatly (of all the forum posts I have read about the character, the reaction was hugely mixed - people loved her at first, then hated her, then really hated her, then liked her again - for whatever reason, Izzie wasn't a character you could just be alright with. It was either love, or hate. In most cases, at least). For me, obviously, it was love. No matter what Izzie did, I couldn't help but love her.

The rest of this blog will contain spoilers for Grey's Anatomy.  

Charmed - A Favourite

Originally, I was going to write a list of my twenty favourite television shows of all time (when I was a member of another website, these lists were insanely addictive to me). Writing a whole bunch of paragraphs about that many programmes can take a lot of time (as can actually deciding what that list will consist of). Instead, I'll just paste what I have already written about one of my favourite shows (it is clear from the title, that this show is Charmed).  

One Day - Movie Review

One Day seemed to have everything going for it. The author of the (fairly popular, especially here in the UK) novel, David Nicholls, adapted his own work into a screenplay. The movie's director's previous work includes An Education, a British film starring Carey Mulligan that snagged a bunch of Oscar nominations (deservedly so, it's very good). The cast is talented and the leads have clear chemistry. However, something didn't quite click. This review is kind of spoiler-y, but I won't be giving away the entire movie. Loose bits of plot may be mentioned, but I'm not going to be discussing twists or anything you wouldn't already know from a. the trailer, or b. the fact that this movie is kind of a romantic comedy.
