This is one of the rockin'est vids I've ever seen - One Woman Army, Marvel Cinematic Universe MultiFemale.

YOU GO, GIRLS!



Speaking of kicking butt... X-COMPANY!!! Is anybody else watching this show?? It is Made Of Awesome and full of so many people I love - Jakes from Endeavour! Justin from Luther! Ed from Flashpoint! The Ghostfacers' dead gay intern from Supernatural! And loads of other people, they're all great too, BUT THOSE ARE MY PEEPS. I can't believe how amazing Jack Laskey (Jakes from Endeavour) is. For one thing, spot-on Canadian accent. For another thing, SPOT-ON EVERYTHING. He's so polar-opposite to his Endeavour character in this that it took me ages to recognize him.

Anyway, it's about a real-life spy camp in Ontario, Canada during WW2 that basically trained all the spies, assassins, saboteurs, and like awesome folks for the Allies. It's a relatively unknown piece of Canadian history that the creators of the show want to shine a light on, and they are doing it awesomely. It's a fun, exciting, nail-biting adventure show with lots of cool WW2 spy stuff and engaging characters and gorgeous scenery and basically all the ingredients that make up an awesome show. Watch iiiiiit! I'm sure it must be online somewhere for those not in Canada, but for those who are in Canada, it's on CBC on Wednesdays.

Here's a trailer -



And the aired-a-million-times ad that hooked me into watching it -

I know people complain about the lack of female superheroes, but Marvel sure does 'em awesome when it does 'em at all. :D

Yay! I hope you can find it!

Yay X-Company! :D

I loved Agent Carter! I'm so bummed that it was only 8 episodes. I'm desperate for a season 2.

You reminded me I wanted to start watching X Company! At least I can watch it on the CBC site!

Its good! So good that I found myself pausing it and thinking to myself nope I can't watch this, too intense!

I can't believe that Jack Laskey isn't Canadian. Its like how Michael Fassbender fooled me in A Bear Named Winnie.

I know, his accent is so perfect! He's a terrific actor.

It does get pretty intense! That's what I love about it. :D
