So, it's been a while.

Of the three shows I was watching in my last post, I've pretty much decided to drop Revenge. I cannot believe how quickly I've gotten over the show, but I haven't really been liking this season all too much, not the least because I absolutely hate Aiden and hope he would just go away. Ugh.
