Catching up on at least a bit of TV
I would just like to bask in the fact that 
scruloose and I are caught up on The Good Wife. And it's even Monday! So it's not one of those weeks where we don't get to the previous week's episode until early Sunday evening, which allows us to be caught up for a whopping few hours. I may even manage to sift back and locate some reaction posts, which I haven't been able to read since, oh, the season premiere or so.
That puts us at three whole shows that we're up to date on, the others being Elementary and Legend of Korra. I've gotta say, nothing has driven home the reality of Korra being so close to the series finale as talking to
seolh, who tries not to start watching many shows until after their complete run is over, and having her be excited because she can finally start watching it.
I'm not heartbroken that Korra's ending. I've enjoyed a lot of things about last season and this current one, and I love many of the characters, but I never really got over how thoroughly the show initially failed to live up to ATLA and how poorly many aspects of seasons 1 and 2 were handled. Alas.
(So what I'm saying is, this has nothing on the sheer sadness of the time months ago when
seolh and I were talking and she was excited about finally getting to start Warehouse 13, which I still miss dearly even though I'm so grumpy about swaths of the final season.)
I'm still going through people's posts for the December meme and leaving prompts, but at this rate I don't know what the odds are of managing to think of/leave topics for everyone, simply because SO MANY PEOPLE are doing it. But my slow progress also means I'm getting a good look at at awful lot of folks' lists of current topics, and I'm really excited to read all kinds of them. *^^*
