Last night I learned an important lesson that will most certainly come as a surprise to everyone: sleepy brains don't know what the fuck they're doing.
I had the most sincere, startled reaction of "But what would
adventurepants do?" when I saw that both FX and Syfy were showing different Stargates at the same time. That is bullshit for many reasons, like the fact there is such a thing as DVR, or the fact I managed to read Stargate when the TV screen clearly said Star Trek. So. Brains, what are they good for?
Speaking of TV, I think Gossip Girl and I are finally parting ways.
I'm sure I could still force myself to find something amusing to keep me going, but what's the point? I CAN'T BE THE ONE MAKING ALL THE EFFORT, GG. YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME SOMETHING. It was already hard to buy the idea of Chuck Bass' continued existence after Season 3, but now you went and made it beyond impossible. Good job.
The more I think about it, the more I don't understand how they managed to make me hate every single character that I used to love. AND THE ONE CHARACTER I HATED IS THE ONLY ONE I LOVE RIGHT NOW. How do you even do that, Gossip Girl? Do you know how long I spent seething at the mere thought of Dan Humphrey saying he was the ~most understanding boyfriend in the world~? And now Dan is my favorite. Because you made Blair Waldorf suck. You made Blair Waldorf suck.
What even is the point of having a large cast if you don't know what the fuck to do with it? Everyone bitches about Vanessa, but how are Nate and Serena relevant right now? What are you even doing bringing in more guest stars? You took a character that was openly ridiculous and decided to convince everyone he was, in fact, the embodiment of ~romance (while making it evident you wouldn't know romance if it punched you in the face the glass window behind you.)
That's a lot of crappy accomplishments for just one show. I'm gonna go talk to some food about this.
Meanwhile, I've been overly invested in Glee's own brand of stupidity. And by that I mean I suddenly realized I didn't even know/remember Quinn moving back in with her mom. That's how much attention I pay to things that aren't Santana, or Rachel saying the gayest things with a straight face. See what I did there?
Also, remember when Parks and Recreation was just meh? IT'S SO NOT. I feel bad for not giving that first season a proper chance. ALTHOUGH, I just have to say I'm not entirely unconvinced that Ben isn't going to invite Leslie over one day and she's gonna find out he has silky black sheets, while side two of the Rolling Stones' Tattoo You plays in the background. BLAIR WALDORF IS ONTO YOU, MR. ROOKS.
Also, also, Dr. Arizona Robbins, how are you that cute? Cutest authority issues on television.
Damn, that was a lot of random TV talk.
PS: DAMN IT LJ WAY TO COME UP WITH A HEADER THAT MAKES ME THINK OF KIRAN/SOLSTICE ALL THE TIME. By the way, Raven/Solstice? SUPER WRONG. Someone should make it happen, it'd be a total angstpalooza with all the potentially deadly ~feelings lol.
