And Sundry. (Mostly TeeVees)
1. Revolution, Arrow, and Elementary have all been picked up for full seasons, and Beauty and the Beast has at least had scripts for more episodes ordered. Dare I hope that all my new shows will actually make it? (Probably not.)
2. I am not spoiler cutting this spoiler for this week's Once Upon A Time, because fandom misogyny doesn't get spoiler cuts. Once Upon A Time fandom is apparently having flame wars over whether or not it's justifiable to murder your wife for saying she never loved you, after she left you years and years before (being miserable with her life and having fruitlessly begged you to leave with her).
3. Apparently in November, LJ is automatically turning all friends pages to their default and making friends pages use infinite scroll. Urg.
4. I've been rewatching the first 3 seasons of Castle (because season 4 is on DVD now) and it's so weird to see all these random guest stars who have regular gigs now, like when Katie Lowes and Caterina Scorsone were in the same episode.
5. Last night was my church's Trunk or Treat. Tons of male Avengers, but no Black Widows. Lots of Spidermen with foam muscles. A number of little girls in pink and silver Spiderman and Batman costumes, and a Grim Reaper with hot pink sneakers. There were also a number of zombie princesses, and I think I counted 7 Hispanic girls wearing pirate costumes. I asked one who she was and she shouted "ANJELICA," but that apparently actually was her name. Still, I think we can attribute that trend to the latest POTC movie.
ETA: 6. I find it awesome and hilarious that there was a post to the yuletide comm whose main purpose was to explain which characters the "Amanda Clark" and "Emily Thorn" tags for Revenge were being used for, and why.
