The end of stuff.

☂ Community. I don't know. I just don't know. I enjoyed the two part finale kinda but I feel like overall my feelings on this season are so underwhelming that it's hard for me to even care. I feel like this has the potential to become something I don't watch regularly, but at the same time, I don't feel strongly enough about that ( Read more... )

The Killing is rather awesome though it's not something I plan my schedule around. I just watch it on OnDemand whenever I get the time. Same for Community & Grey's Anatomy, of which I haven't seen the finale yet but...IDK...I'm in no rush with that one.

You watch Lost Girl & Misfits? Awesome! I knew Misfits wasn't coming back until the fall but I didn't know about Lost Girl. Bummer.

Yeah I am really excited to see how it all unravels. I feel like we should know more than we do at this point but they keep throwing me.

Yep I do! According to wiki the 2nd season of Lost Girl is supposed to start in the fall but it doesn't give a date or anything. Maybe it'll be sooner rather than later.

I don't really understand anything yet but I'm still invested? Part of me wonders if the casting choices matter because there are two actor who almost always play the villains/killer and it makes me very suspicious of them. But then maybe that's what the writers want us to think? IDK...It's a very good show, though :)

I liked the first half of the season much more than the latter but I still want my Bo & Kenzi & Lauren fix, ASAP :D

It sounds like whispering kids or giggling elves. Did you bring home elves last night? Not judging. crickets May 21 2011, 05:18:04 UTC
Callum? And who else? (I'm guessing on Callum.)

I liked the whole season and especially loved the ending. The the way they left us with the cliffhanger about Trick. (Who I just LOVE.) I can pretty much do without Lauren though, and am secretly hoping her role is small this year. Kenzi is my absolute favorite! She's so.... KENZI. I don't know how to describe her. She's totally what made me fall for the show. But I very much root for Bo, too. Their BFFness is my 2nd favorite thing on the show... next to Kenzi. Haha.

I need to go re-watch Arachnofaebia. I love that episode so much!

"Kenzi! We are trapped in this tomb of a house by a giant freakin' spider! Do you think you can tape this?"

With TVD - maybe it's better to watch the show straight through once a season is over? I know it's a long time to wait, but sometimes having to wait for an episode every week really takes (me) out of it. The excitement is less. I watched s1 and the beginning of s2 up to 2x11 straight through, and I LOVED it. Then it returned after a mini break and being all caught up was less fun.

You know I don't know. By downhill slide I meant more like, in terms of my fandom love for it, it snowballed and has grown to 10x its original size once it hit the bottom of the mountain, lol.

For me it's so torturous waiting even a week for a new episode. I was pretty thrilled about all but a few episodes even when watching as it airs. Because like I said, I started watching just after 2.03 and caught up within a couple of weeks, and have been watching week-to-week every ep since.

I'd say the Dinner Party, The House Guest, Know Thy Enemy, and The Last Dance were the only episodes I felt kind of "meh" about. But other than that, I was happy and excited after every ep!

Do you mean like fans of the show are batshit? I stay away from certain places like Twitter or even communities on LJ, so my mood isn't ruined by them.

That's so funny b/c The Dinner Party and The House Guest were two of my favorite episodes this season. :)

I did watch Upfront videos of Paul and Ian, and they said the writers are happy to have all the mythology/moonstone stuff behind them, so now they can get to all the action. I am holding them to their promise.

I'm SO thrilled about Happy Endings. I'm so glad you had me watch it with you that one night. I'm shocked at how incredibly hilarious it is. But yeah the Barefoot Pedler one definitely felt like it should have come earlier.
But oh man, Max and Penny are hilarious. By far my favorites on the show. Oddly enough, the two main characters (Alex and Dave) are the ones I find least interesting. They kinda remind me of S1 Ted on How I Met Your Mother. Like they spent so much time giving the supporting cast quirky/funny personalities that they forgot about the main one/s lol. But I digress. It's a great show!

I hope you do decide to catch up a little on The West Wing. I'd love to discuss that show with you ;)

Haha, I apologize for torturing you with awesome television. ;) When I briefly watched that show (I think it was in its third season) Ted was actually my favorite. I don't have any particular problems with Alex and Dave. Max and Penny are definitely favorites, and the other four are just kind of slightly less awesome. (IMO.)

I don't really have anything to say about The West Wing aside from maybe quoting it at you. Haha.

lol I know right? West Wing is one of those rare shows that's like so awesome that there's not much to talk about aside from how perfect it is ;)

I am not currently watching Nikita. I was willing to give it a shot and saw like 5 minutes of an episode and kind of had to turn it off. It was either not a good idea to just pick a random episode to "sample" the goods, or it may not be the show for me.

Lost Girl and Misfits are already on my schedule babe!

I actually watched the old Nikita on USA a bit a long time ago so I kind of know the gist of the story. Or at least the overall set-up. I'll have to reconsider it.

For a season that was getting back part of it's old groove back, I'm a little surprised at how I didn't like this season-ender. I'm a little meh about it. Maybe, part of it is that I wanted Alex to be in a good place for next year. Whatever.

I'm falling a little out of love with The Killing. Although I still love Holder.

Happy EndingsFTW! MaxFTW! I hope Max Greenfield/Ian comes back!

I feel like Alex is going to have some good things coming to him. He's such a different character than he used to be and it's totally obvious that he has earned the respect of his colleagues in a way that he never has before. Next season, Meredith had better admit that she was the one who screwed up and not him. Maybe it's just me, and maybe this catch-phrase should die, but I predict the next season to be the season of Alex WINNING.

lol.

I'm not caught up so I'm reserving judgement. It's such a slow build but I'm holding out hope that the last few eps are going to be shocking and awesome.

Right? It's such a good show!

About Community, I'm still on the train but I want something more but I can't define what I want. Magic...I want to be enchanted with Community like the first season, not just in like with it. Like the D&D episode. LOL Anyway, while I love A Fistful of Paintballs, I didn't love the next part.

OMG, I have to wait a long time for Lost Girl & Misfits. Nuts!

True Blood - It better be good because I wasn't liking the 3rd season. Entourage - I want to know what happens and as much as I don't like Vince, I want to see how it ends up for him as well as for everyone. Also, I'm hoping for an Alex O'Loughlin cameo where he's like Scott's client. LOL
The Glades - Yay!

crickets May 21 2011, 00:16:48 UTC
Yeah there's just something off about it. It makes me sad.

Yes, too long!

I don't dislike Vince but he's kind of a handful isn't he? I definitely want to see where we leave these guys. I'm suspecting it will be somewhere close to where we found them. ;)
