I've been watching Political Animals, which is just pure, glorious wish fulfilment television. The plot is that an intelligent, moral and ambitious former First Lady, played by Sigourney Weaver, divorces her cheating ex-President husband after she loses the Democratic Primary, becomes Secretary of State and then sick of the current administration ( Read more... )

So, I suspect that I'm the only person on the planet who hasn't seen the Avengers yet. Sigh.

Game of Thrones: Damn, it Game of Thrones. On the one hand you gifeth to the canon, with the fantastic scene between Catelyn and Littlefinger, and Margaery being an ambitious bamf and particularly with the completely wonderful and perfect and I would draw ( Read more... )

It's been good TV news week:

1. There is a kickstarter campaign for an Inspector Spacetime web series (it's over 40% there already), which, delightfully, was launched at a Doctor Who convention.

2. Community will be back! Wooooooo!!!!! Six seasons and a movie!

3. the trailer for Season two of The Almighty Johnsons was released, and she show ( Read more... )

Still loving Once Upon A Time, even though it's sort of getting dating plan-ish in its ways of keeping Snow and Charming apart - there really is only so many obstacles you can place in a ships way before it goes from being lovely to being dull and repetitive. Plus, David's being a bit of a tool. Still, Mary and David have to be the cutest ( Read more... )

Like many Community fants that photos of Nathan Fillion on set has me crazy excited. Not because I'm a massive Nathan Fillon fan (I think he's great and I enjoy seeing him in things, but I've never sought something out because he's in it or ever bothered to watch and episode of Castle), but because I think the way season three must go out is with a ( Read more... )

I finished Deadwood and I'm really sad now that it got cancelled because I found the third season to be the best, what with there being a major bad guy for everyone else to rally around and the stakes being increasingly high, although, there was that subplot with the troupe of actors which I just did not understand the purpose of at all ( Read more... )

I freaking loved the Sanctuary finale. Now that was a plan. The season as a whole has been rather flawed, but it did come together amazingly well in that episode. And just when I think that Helen Magnus cannot get any more awesome, she just gets more awesome ( Read more... )

I've got to stop reading set reports for the filming of the second season of Game of Thrones. All I end up doing is fretting that they're going to ruin my favourite storylines and characters and it is not good for me.

I've now officially fallen for Once Upon A Time. If watching a television show is like entering a relationship, I'm at the stage ( Read more... )

Oh, Misfits. Not sure how I feel about Nathan being replaced by a suspiciously similar substitute, although, I really like the actor, and Alisha/Simon still bore me half to death, but do love the new powers. I'm hopeful though that the big problem of last season (the side-lining of Kelly and Curtis) will not occur this season.

Is it me, or has ( Read more... )

I've been really bad at posting lately. I have been watching stuff though...

1. My flatmate's bf has just started on book two of A Storm of Swords and my flatmate has been hovering over him ever since just waiting for him to get to that chapter, which is hilarious given that when my flatmate started on that book I was hovering over her waiting for ( Read more... )
