Day 25 - A show you plan on watching (old or new).

I am actually waffling between two at the moment. Help me LJ-wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope!

The first is Puella Magi Madoka Magica, about which I have heard rave reviews for years, years I tell you, although there seems to have been a backlash against it recently which will hopefully have the salutary effect of lowering my expectations. Has anyone seen it? What did you think?

The other is White Collar, which has many things in its favor - Neal Caffrey’s face (and his suits) and a juggernaut OT3 not least among them - but I’ve heard discouraging things about the plots of its later seasons. I’m only going to be able to take Peter forgiving Neal for criminal shenanigans (again) so many times before I want to throw something at the TV, and this apparently becomes a recurring motif in later seasons.

But Emma says that I could just watch the first two seasons and quit and I’d be golden. Do you think that’s accurate? Or will that result in quitting at a point when the show’s incomplete threads will gnaw at me like a sore tooth?
