Oh, Derek, I missed you!

I confess, I've been a bit disappointed in SCC this season, other than the premiere. It hasn't been bad, exactly. Just not nearly as awesome as those last several episodes of S1. I'm particularly enjoying seeing where they're going with Cameron, but beyond that, it needed a little something. And see, this is exactly what they needed:

1. MORE DEREK! Okay, so the show's 'people' need to understand that the dynamic Derek adds to the group makes this show as good as it was late last season. Pretty simple.

2. Derek and John, off together on a mission! WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS. Uncle/nephew bonding time! Not that Sarah isn't all that, but boys need strong male figures, and that's Derek, even if he is fantastically broken. Actually, especially because he's fantastically broken.

3. Sarah and Cameron. They work very well together. I like their dynamic almost as much as I enjoy Derek and John.

New SCC tonight!

So, there will be LJ spammage tomorrow. I could lie and say there won't, but anyone who's followed this journal for any length of time, really, wouldn't have believed me anyway.

But really, this post is all about avoidance. God, this first chapter is like pulling frelling teeth. WTH, book? Come on, another thousand words and I can move on to chapter freaking two.

You guys all remember my warning about being mildly obsessive, right? So now that my show is back, yes, I'll likely be spamming LJ with posts about it at least once a week.

Does anyone know where to find the preview they aired last night? I want to watch it again, and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

New SCC last night! How awesome was that? Pretty damn awesome, I think! I did have one little thing that bugged me, but overall I thought the episode was really strong.

( Spoilery thoughts behind the cut. )

ETA: Oh, and I lovelovelove the new opening/voiceover - I love it all, but mostly that DEREK is included! Yes!

OMG you guys - I just saw a promo for SCC S2!  Okay, so it used all S1 clips and there was, strikingly, no BAG anywhere to be seen, BUT, it was thrilling anyway.  What does that mean I wonder: "...all of that is about the change"? 

Hmm.
