really miscellaneous television
Mar. 8th, 2010 03:26 pmAs usual, I am not dead, just dragging my feet about updating. It's so much easier to read my friends list than to think of something to write -- and the less I write, the more I need to write when I finally do get around to updating. It's like a vicious cycle! And there are so many things to talk about (and I am so behind at work...)
On the televisual front...
I don't know what to do with mySaturday Sunday nights, now that Being Human is over. (I have a non spoilery theory about that show. You know the myth about the Norns, or whoever they are, where there's three of them and they only have a single eye and have to pass it around? Well, Mitchell, Annie and George only have one dose of common sense between the three of them: one of them can exhibit common sense at any given time, but no more than one of them. Exhibit A: pretty much every episode in season 2.)
I have other things to say about Being Human, but they belong in a post of their own, under a cut.
As usual with American shows, I'm more than a step out-of-step. So I am enjoying Glee very much (in part because I've never seen such a collection of horrible people in a single show), and wondering why everyone on my friends list is so enthusiastic about The Good Wife (I saw the first few episodes, and it seemed very by-the-numbers; obviously this changes at some point?) And even though I mean to watch NCIS (only two seasons behind!) somehow I keep forgetting to.
I actually acquired the most recent flashback episode of Supernatural, despite not having seen any of this season or the last. I haven't watched it yet, mind you, but it's on my computer. The next question is: will the desktop melt down before I get around to viewing the episode? I have concerns about that.
And on that bombshell, as they say (and this is a whole 'nother issue, because I totally blame Jeremy Clarkson for the fact that Spartacus' favorite word is "car"), I must go figure out how I managed to lose all my ink pens, and why I still have so many essays to mark for tomorrow.
