This has been a television season like no other: I just keep jettisoning shows. It’s very liberating. I finally quit Stargate Universe once and for all after being thoroughly bored by the new offering after the mid-season hiatus. That helped me to never even start Caprica after the underwhelming DVD pilot. Idol is fading fast, though I still ( Read more... )

I must admit I was a bit hesitant about Farscape Uncharted Tales: D’Argo’s Lament. I mean, do I really care enough about D’Argo to read an entire story about him? And what the hell else is there to say about D’Argo that deserves such focus? But hey, it’s new canon Farscape so I read it anyway. And it was great! ( only lightly spoilery )

I'm glad folks are enjoying my newbie reactions. This show is so much fun. It's strangely light and fluffy for how many different angst-inducing story elements are being juggled. I know the quality doesn't keep up but I'm hoping that by speeding through on DVD I won't notice it as much. Plus, like with Buffy's final two seasons, by watching so ( Read more... )

It's a little strange to do my standard review/recap of the story when it's in comic book format instead of episodic television. I mean, I have it right here in front of me so I can page through!

Well. Now that I have my sanity back after yesterday’s massive sleep-deprivation- and hormones-caused fugue state, I have realized I totally fell behind on writing up my weekend viewing. I’ll probably get a little wordy, as I tend to do, so I’ll break this into pairs.

So that’s it then. ( The penultimate and final episodes of Buffy. Ever. )

I accidentally watched the entire rest of the first disc last night. And then when I woke up with middle of the night insomnia, my brain kept dwelling on certain scenes while I was busy not falling back to sleep.

Vacation was fun. However, I have fallen behind on everything. I’m nearly caught up on Entertainment Weekly issues thanks to riding the bus. But there’s no way I would be able to finish my book club book for this month before Saturday’s meeting - which I can’t go to anyway. I’m slowly catching up on TWoP (still haven’t ventured in to the ( Read more... )
