Fringe icon procured. *points* Though why people link to LOCKED POSTS in icon communities continues to baffle and irritate me. It's like when people link to locked fic. No, I am not going to comment and ask to be added so I can read your* deathless prose or view your pretty icons. There's enough stuff available without making me jump through hoops to get at yours. Bah.

*all yous are generic

Everybody's doing it, so I will too. That 30 day TV meme.

Day 01 - A show that should have never been canceled

I could go with the obvious and say Firefly, but as the years have passed, I have to admit, I'm kind of glad it ended where it did. I mean, unlike a lot of fans, I love the movie, and I'm happy with what we got (though as always, it must be said, "WAH! WASH!"), so I'm glad it ended before Joss got bored or distracted. I didn't start watching Middleman until it was already canceled, so though I would have loved for it to run for five seasons of AWESOME, I was already at peace with its limited run when I started watching. I feel like Sarah Connor Chronicles ended in a good place even though I wish it had been renewed. Same with Life.

So I'm gonna have to go with Pushing Daisies, which was just too witty, pretty, and bright for this world. Sigh. I miss this show so much. Cod and Snook! The aunts! water ballet! PIE! Chuck's awesome wardrobe! The eye-popping colors and snappy double entendre-laden dialogue! The wacky names and wackier deaths! The coroner! The absurdity! The Pie Maker! Digby! Pigby! The singing! ♥♥♥♥♥

Speaking of TV, once again, I forgot Glee was on until about 9:20, so I watched it on delay, which was nice. Sue! ♥ They let other people sing during "Don't Stop Believing!" Journey! Tina having more than 2 facebook friends. "To Sir with Love!" (I teared up, despite thinking Will Shuester is a terrible person undeserving of having that sung to him.)

I still think Will needs to be groinpunched and set on fire, and good lord, what was up with Finn's voice during "Faithfully"? And ugh, I think I was supposed to find Shelby adopting Quinn's baby heartwarming, but it was just a sickening display of selfishness, when Rachel is RIGHT THERE. What the fuck? *waves hands* I don't know why I even bother. I watch for the musical numbers and for Sue Sylvester, and the show delivered those items last night, though Vocal Adrenaline's "Bohemian Rhapsody" has nothing on the Muppets' version. I'm just saying.

I imagine I will keep watching next fall, if I remember when it's on, but if something else I like is on against it, it will probably just pile up on my DVR, and I will seek the musical numbers out on youtube.
