I need to talk about things

Aug 10, 2011 16:14

→ I need to talk about things. I've been a bad flister lately I think. I feel like part of it is having two jobs now and less time. And the other part of it is just random not-posting-fun-things-for-no-reason. I apologize, please forgive me ( Read more... )

I was just going through my fall television schedule tonight (because that's a normal thing, right? organization is important) and it looks like it was assembled by a crazy person. I'm not sure how exactly I'm going to watch all the things, but I'm going to watch all the things, darn it.

I'm so glad you're watching P&R now! And saw up above that you liked Mark. That makes me so happy, you have no idea.

The first episode of Luther traumatized me so severely I haven't worked up the courage to go back yet. But one day.

I was that way with Game of Thrones for a long time--not one but two sexual assault scenes played partially for arousal in the first episode and ZOMG RACISM with the brown savages thing--but my sister convinced me to watch the rest and it was, indeed, much better (only one other rape scene played partly for arousal in the first season! >.<)/worth watching.

True Blood season 4 Sookie/Eric: it's like the season 4 Buffy/Spike episode, except longer and not as funny! IDK, I like Tara & her girlfriend and Jessica, and I'm so glad to have the Twi-hard TRUE LOVE between Sookie and Bill over, and I remain impressed that they haven't once played Jason being gang raped for laughs, but overall......

Lately I'm more obsessed with anime classics--Fullmetal Alchemist, Ghost in the Shell:SAC, and Paranoia Agent. *so good*.

You mean Something Blue? God I loved that. And you're right. It sorta is like that. Actually, amnesia Eric reminds me a lot of the actives from Dollhouse so it kind of gives me the heebs! But I haven't had a chance to sit down and watch their story unfold so I can't really judge it. I would need to catch up before I could do that!

I don't mind Sookie and Bill. *shrug* Sookie's love life is not really my focus on that show. In fact, I have no idea what is. Haha.

I watched all seasons of P&R but it took me ages to like it. Season 1 was...very,very bad. And I only kept on watching because everyone said it gets better. Season 2 was indeed better but I still didn't get why everyone was in love with it. And now it's still not my favorite show or anything (I have too many issues tbh. Can't stand Tom,I hate how everyone treats Jerry etc.) but I like it well enough to watch season 4 :)

I don't mind Tom as much as I should. The Jerry thing is my biggest beef with the show. I mean it just honestly feel so disingenuous when you compare that to how the characters are in every other situation. I never find it funny.

Count me in as excited for Apartment 23 (which I believe was originally titled "Don't Trust The Bitch In Apartment 23" ROTFL) as well! I have quite a fondness for Krysten Ritter ... and the Beek.

Duke is my favorite, too, lol. We're a rare breed from the looks of the fandom ;P

crickets August 12 2011, 20:06:40 UTC

Oh wow, I didn't know that. I also very much like Krysten Ritter. I have only seen her in a couple of things though so it's kind of inexplicable. And always in small roles. So she (and the Beek) are a big part of my excitement for this series.

DUKE! I can't understand why he wouldn't be more popular. I don't hang out in the fandom much so I didn't realize he was such an underdog. But if that's true, it explains a little about why I like him. I often root for underdogs.
