62: do you drink juice in the morning? which kind?

No, I rarely drink juice at all anymore. It's awful for you! The only juice I've had, that I can recall, in the past six months are a couple pineapple juice boxes.

I still have Sleepy Hollow icons, but haven't watched it regularly since the end of the second season. I feel like it should have cancelled when the original people left, and I think TBH that's how it should usually go. Some shows rise to the occasion with new creators and writers, but a lot of the time it's just not the same.

(Or, why I mostly watch Netflix and older shows now. Seriously, I don't know that I've watched any new network shows in the past two years. Although some of it's that a lot of shows are super dark these days, and I'm not so up for super dark right now. I think that's also partly why I stopped watching SH. Although some netflix stuff is fairly dark too...)

Yeah, whenever someone says they're not ____ but, you know something incredibly offensive is going to follow.

I think I tuned out sometime in season three, maybe halfway through? Even though Abbie was still on the show there was such a tonal shift to everything being about Crane and his stupid wife and their drama that it took away from the point of the show. I didn't even have that big an issue with the guy they brought in to give Abbie an attempt at a romantic storyline, he just added to the clutter.

Oh well. It just feels like such a waste when the first season was SO GOOD. And I remember very vividly watching the trailer released over the summer to hype it and thinking, "this is going to be such cheesy bullshit", then being so wowed by the pilot. :(

I stopped watching OUaT so I didn't know that Jennifer Morrison was leaving. I'm not at all surprised about Timeless or Sleepy Hollow. Sleepy Hollow has been floundering for quite some time now.

I feel bad that OUAT is going to (likely) suffer from such a steep drop off, both in viewers and quality. It couldn't keep me interested beyond the first season even though I WANTED to like it but now that it's veering off into a whole new main plot (from the sounds of things) I feel for everyone who loves the show who'll feel let down by the changes.

I'm amazed that the big networks can still manage to field so many high quality shows, given all the competition they have nowadays with cable networks, Netflix, Amazon, etc,

And I'm with you, who drinks juice any more? Way too much sugar.

The numbers that came out of the writer's guild strike negotiations in the past couple of months were astounding. Even for 2016 it's insane: In 2016, there were a record 455 scripted shows compared with 266 in 2011, according to FX. Even since last year, the number of scripted shows has risen by 34, or 8%.

I feel the same way about OUAT. I think they should finish up now and wrap things up on a high note.

Sleepy Hollow jumped the shark when they killed off Abbie. I stopped watching at that point.

I tried to slog through season 3 but had to give it up when I was falling asleep through the episodes and had no idea what was going on. I was SO OVER Crane's stupid family drama. Not here for his wife or old son.

I definitely feel the same way re: OUAT and Sleepy Hollow.
