You and me will be lying side by side forever...

You all know about my love for Michael Vartan. Well, that
love drove me to watch "Big Shots" and @ 1st I thought "its
a good thing this show is only 1 season b/c I don't think I
can get into it, damn, I'm only watching it b/c of Vartan".
But now that I've finished watching all the episodes, I'm
mad. I really liked the show, it started getting interesting
towards the end; though kind of upsetting @ times b/c these
guys are so rich, spoiled, whinny, insufferable even and can
have anything they want, in the end I liked it. (I really
get into the shows I watch, as if they're real. I live
vicariously through my TV shows, sad.)

Any who, I loved Vartan's character, of course. Poor guy,
his wife of 20 yrs cheated on him w/ his boss, an old
married fart. Good thing, b/c their divorce freed him up to
be with his coworker, played by Nia Long. She's a pretty
good actress, didn't realize it until the show. But yea, I
thought they made such a cute couple. At first she fought
getting involved w/ him, didn't want to ruin their
friendship or her reputation (thought people would think she
only got to be the CEO's right hand b/c she slept her way
into the position). But she eventually gave in, realized
that people already thought she was sleeping w/ him even
before she was. It was nice seeing an interracial
couple where the focus of their problems stemmed from some
factor other than race. I don't know why, but race has been
an issue lately. I wouldn't get into it now, lets keep this
entry light-hearted. Sadly the show ended just as they
became an official, publicly known couple. Darn, now I can't
daydream about my life mirroring their relationship; they
were so cute. Turns out that Vartan's supposed to star in an
upcoming series, Time Heals, opposite Jada Pinkett-Smith
with a possible romantic relationship betw them. We'll see
how that turns out. It'd be interesting seeing him in
scrubs, hehe. I love this man and its so not fair that I
can't have him.

But now BigShots is done so I have no more shows to distract
me. I'm anxiously awaiting the premiere of his new show;
he's replacing some other actor they had originally chosen
for the part. Yay!!! I get to see him soon.

- F. Vartan

PS - I was about to write my name when I realized that it
would go perfect w/ his surname b/c (I thought) they are
both french. Turns out Vartan is armenian, but he's french
and my name is french so whatever, it works. Funny how I
find amusement in such simple things.
