The Vampire Diaries - 2.16
Feb. 25th, 2011 02:34 pmTHIS SHOW HAS GOTTEN GOOD AGAIN! I'm so happy for that, because I was doubting for a while there with all the werewolves. Last weeks episode was good and this one was pure flail and now we have to wait until April? That's just mean.

I watch TV. Like, a lot.
Dec. 31st, 2010 04:38 pmAs usual, I've been watching lots of TV lately (and yet my list of series to watch is only getting longer. Oh, the woe) and here are some random thoughts on the things occupying my mind. Beware: it's ridiculously long, and not insightful at all. Also has occasional spoilers for the different shows, of different degrees.
( Misfits )
( Doctor Who )
( Veronica Mars )
( The Vampire Diaries )
( The Cape )
( Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 3, Buffy/Angel )

Nov. 14th, 2010 11:15 pmThis show has become one of my favorite shows that's still going, and I just caught up with it today. Yes, the first few episodes were really bad, and I almost gave up (though I'd heard that it got better, so I continued) but then things started to get interesting, and the last few days I've been watching a lot.

As You Were
Oct. 26th, 2010 08:33 pmOH GOD. I haven't really had a problem with Sam Finn before, but this time... I HATE HER! STOP TALKING! STOP TRYING TO ACT! GO AWAY! And Riley too. Yuck.
Apart from the parts with Riley and Sam I found I did actually like it more then I thought. Willow was cute and Dawn was nice and Xander/Anya was Xander/Anya. There was shirtless!Spike which the shallow parts of me always appreciate, and there are good things happening with Spike/Buffy. I think Buffy breaking off the relationship is necessary at this point, for her, but I do not like that it's Riley who does it, like he's so perfect. And the whole Spike-is-the-Doctor is just ridiculous and doesn't make the least bit of sense. Also, JM is so much love. The things he can do with his face are just amazing. I liked the episode more than I thought (which is pretty common, BtVS just keeps overwhelming me), but Sam made me want to through things at her.

I made some icons today, and got pretty satisfied with them (though I'm still seriously jealous of people way more talented than me but hey - I've been doing this seriously for not even two months, so I have some right to suck) and will try to make more tomorrow.

Angel, how do you shave?
Oct. 19th, 2010 09:52 pmI'm currently re-watching S2 of Buffy with my family, who's never seen it before, and it's real fun.
( rambling a bit about S2 and some comparisons between B/A and S/B )
On a completely different note (well still on Buffy I guess), I noticed that all the Initiative boys have guest starred on Castle, which I found kind of funny. First Bailey Chase (Graham), then Marc Blucas (Riley) and now Leonard Roberts (Forrest), and yes, I squee every time someone from the Whedonverse guest stars on anything, I'm silly that way. Also,
seasonal_spuffy has begun, yay!

Oh look, a new obsession
Oct. 14th, 2010 11:13 pmYesterday, after watching Monday's episode of HIMYM, I really felt like watching more comedies, and since I've been meaning to watch Community for a while now, I saw the Pilot. And then I saw some more. Like, a lot more.
I didn't really like the Pilot, well, it wasn't bad, bud didn't wow me or anything, but I still felt like giving it another shot. One episode turned into two turned into three and now I've watched 16 episodes in two days, and it's been like the only thing I've done these days. Obviously, I like it. I like it a lot. And I hate that I always miss out on the beginnings of these shows. Seriously, why can't I catch anything from th beginning? Maybe I'll do that more now, since I'm definitely more involved in fandom now. Anyway, I have thoughts.
( not 100% spoiler-free )
There's been fic-reading in the week too, pretty much of it, and not that much TV (until my Community-obsessing). I really have to get back to watching Castle, I'm on a mini-hiatus right now it seems. I'm at a Buffy episode in my BtVS/AtS re-watch though, but it's As You Were, and I have issues with that episode. And then there's more episodes of pain. And Angel S3. But I am looking forward to continue that re-watch anyway, as well as the S2 I am one with the family that probably will be continuing this week.
CASTLE/HIS DAUGHTER ARE SO MUCH LOVE!
Oh my God, I love their relationship soo much, totally my favorite thing ever about Castle (even though there are lots of other awesome things, their relationship is so epic). Their dialogue, their banter and their love is just the sweetest and funniest thing ever. Also, it reminds me a huge lot about the relationship I have with my dad. For the most time in fiction I feel that there are more Father/Son and Mother/Daughter dynamics, and I definitely connect more with my dad than my mom, so it's really nice to have such a great Father/Daughter relationship.
Also, SPIKE/BUFFY ARE SO SO SO MUCH LOVE!
( Spooooilers for Buffy S8 )
Now, I will finish this rambly (as usual) post, with basking in the glory that is no school tomorrow and that I get to sleep in the morning. *happy sigh*

Ranting about books and TV
Oct. 2nd, 2010 10:04 pmI got Mockingjay yesterday! Woo! The third part in the Hunger Games trilogy, of which I've read the first two ones. I've read about half of it, so far, and it's starting to get exciting around now.
A few thoughts so far:
( Spoilers for the Hunger Games )
I also watched the pilot of No Ordinary Family today, since it seemed like a show I'd like.
( Spoilers for the pilot of NOF )
Also, I bought Season 2 of BtVS on DVD today! Yay! I'm watching it with my dad, but it goes kind of slow, though he likes it so far (even if we're still at Season 1, which is the worst, at least I think so.
Television Rambling
Sep. 30th, 2010 05:05 pmI stay up late at night, I have school early in the morning = I get really tired, like all the time. It sucks.
( cut for TV rambling )
Now i'll just send some love to people who cheered me up when I felt down, and go eat a cookie.
