New. Fandom. God. Dammit.

Eighteen minutes into White Collar. I had a sense I'd like it, but I had no idea, did I.

None.

Like a Mack fucking truck.

And they're both wonderful in their roles, and yes, Matthew Bomer (Neal) is very, very pretty, but you know me (or, if you don't know me well, you'll know me now), I am ALL about Tim DeKay (Peter). (omg Jonesy! \o/)

In the cast interviews, everyone talks about "the relationship." ♥

This is possibly the best pilot episode I've seen for a show since... hm. Invisible Man? Is that possible? I'll have to look at all the shows that premiered between 2001 and now. But it's reminding me of that pilot in quality, in tenor, and in acting.

And who knew I'd like Tiffani-Amber Thiessen (now billed as Tiffani Thiessen)! Good on ya, woman.

If you missed it, USA is running it again Sunday at 11am Eastern, and again on Monday at 11pm Eastern.

Plus? It's on Hulu.

ETA: I just realized that Neal is House-esque, and Peter is very Wilsony. (Also DeKay has similar features & bone structure to RSL. They don't *look alike*, mind you, but there are similarities all over the place.)

Do I have types or what? Mmmmmm.

EATA: I don't think this is a spoiler -- Neal even has a large ball he throws in the air and catches while he's thinking. HOUSE.

*goes to finish the episode*
*needs an icon for falling in love with a new show*
*wishes White Collar had premiered a few weeks before Yuletide noms were due* OMG SOMEONE DID NOMINATE IT.
*bring on the slash, please.*
*Tim! I love you! Come visit!*
