Spotlight: Saving Hope

It's time for the second spotlight, and this time it goes to my current favourite tv serie Saving Hope.

I have to admit it has been a while since I've been following a  hospital TV show. I have never actually seen Grey's Anatomy (which I might have regretted at one point, but I can't be bothered to catch up anymore) and I have never seen more than a couple of episodes of House. I did like ER, though I didn't see that show until like the 10th reruns on television. I did really like 'Strong Medicine' but they only kept showing the same episodes over and over on television, really annoying.

In SAVING HOPE, when charismatic Chief of Surgery Charlie Harris  at Torontos Hope-Zion Hospital ends up in a coma, he leaves the hospital in chaos and his fiancée and fellow surgeon, Alex Reid, in a state of shock. Along with newly-arrived star surgeon, Joel Goran , Alex races to save Harris life. As the action unfolds, comatose Dr. Harris wanders the halls of Hope-Zee in spirit form, not sure if hes a ghost or a figment of his own imagination. Reid, along with her fellow doctors, press on to save his life and those of their other patients, as they deal with the complicated and courageous decisions that are made in their daily struggle to keep hope alive.

I started watching the series, because Daniel Gillies is in it, otherwise I might not even have ever heard about the series. I have to admit that Daniel is pretty awesome it in (and looks good too!). His character Joel can be a total ass now and then, but that kind of makes me like the character so much. He is the typical kind of surgeon every tv serie needs.

And yes I do like the series further as well, not only because of Daniel. The difference from this serie with other series is that they took a little paranormal in it as well, with the out of body experience from Charlie. It might make it less realistic, maybe it is something that really happens, who knows, I like the extra addition and the different look you sometimes get from it on whatever the doctors are doing as Charlie will explain it.

I have to warn, they really do not cover up wounds it the series, you get most of the time, full shots of every growse wound, but I'm really not the best with wounds and all and I can stand it as well so that counts for something at least.

Have you seen the show, planning on seeing it?

Spotlight: Video Artist xXWhisperOfDreamsXx

As you can see at the top of this blog, a new page has been added, namely 'Spotlight'. Very regularly I'll put something or someone (blog, author, book, movie, whatever I can think of) in the Spotlight, just because I love it so much.

The first spotlight is reserved for a YT fanvid artist that I absolutely adore. I'm sure that by now you know that I am a huge fan of the tv serie 'The Vampire Diaries' and this artist just makes the most incredible fanvids (and luckily for me a lot of them are from my favourite ships/chars). The artist I'm talking about is xXWhisperOfDreamsXx and if you have never seen any of her work, please have a look because it is absolutely amazing. Some of her vids have manips in them, which are just perfect.

I'll list a top 5 of my favourite vids below here (which is an almost impossible job for me to choose), but she has many more.

This fanvid has some amazing manips in it and the song fits the video so incredibly well, I love the song mainly because of this fanvid.

Stelena? Yeaah sorry for the Delena's around here, but she has some awesome Delena vids as well ;) This song is just perfect for Stefan/Elena, and she used 'Kiss me' from Ed Sheeran just beautifully.

Klaus and Rebekah just have an incredibly beautiful and complicated brother/sister relationship, which has been visualised in this vid, again the song just fits all the images in it so well.



Again Klaus/Caroline, yes sorry for that, but most of her vids are Klaroline related and again this video is just a perfect combination again of the song and the images that are shown in the fanvid.

This last one is more general of The Vampire Diaries and shows a lot of (friend)ships all together, very beautifully put together again, I know I'm repeating myself over and over, but that is just how I feel with all her videos.

She has some non-TVD videos as well. There are some of Twilight and of 'Hart of Dixie' as well. Hope you guys enjoyed this first Spotlight post and maybe love her vids just as much as I do and subscribe to her channel.
