Alive!

I have survived my first year of grad school... which still surprises me. And I haven't flunked out, which is also of the good, but we'll see how next year, which will be even more challenging, goes. But for now, I'm pretending it doesn't exist ( Read more... )

Congratulations for surviving the year! So fantastic you'll be free to enjoy the new Burn Notice and Leverage. :D

I'm super excited! I really cannot wait for Leverage. I need to know what's going to happen... sigh.

Btw, what'd you think of the Good Wife finale? I'm not sure if you posted on it, because I've been off LJ lately.

I really did like it for the most part, though I ranted a bit about a couple of things. Just, I really hope they deal with the Alicia/Will/Peter triangle of doom early next season because it feels like it's dragging on a bit too long.

Anyway, I did like the episode. Best opening ever with all the sneaking in the back entrance stuff, and then the client who ends up being guilty of murder, and almost getting away with it, if not for Kalinda. I'm interested to see if the hints of police corruption end up affecting Kalinda next season. I really hope Det. Burton is corrupt. :P

Yes, the triangle is definitely dragging on, and the whole "cliffhanger" ending was kind of lame. I really did like Alicia calling Will out and saying that romance is fine and all, but she needs a plan. Is there a particular resolution you're hoping for?

I'm just hoping for more Kalinda/Alicia awesomeness. Those two make the show for me, and their friendship is fantastic. But I also hope Det. Burton is corrupt; I also had big problems with how they've handled Kalinda's sexuality. Like she can kiss the gross detective in public, but the FBI agent has to be behind a door? Lame.

Yeah, not so much with the cliffhanger given the title of the show, eh?

Is there a particular resolution you're hoping for?
Hmmm, I guess I'm hoping for "neither", but I'm not expecting that to happen. :P I guess I'd just like to see Alicia actively choose something, whether it's Peter or Will. (Or neither. Pick neither, Alicia!). Right now it feels like she's just going along with the status quo, eventhough it seems like she doesn't want to play the role of political wife anymore. I really hope they address that. Such a huge decision deserves more than a hurried conversation before Peter's press conference!

I'm with you on mostly wanting more Alicia/Kalinda awesomeness next season. Their friendship and the law office shennanighans are what made me fall for the show in the first place. Hopefully that won't get shunted to the side.

Omg, the kissing behind the door was so ridiculous. The show runners have said it's because they want Kalinda to be "mysterious". *eyeroll* So lame.
