May. 23rd, 2012 04:28 pm- Once Upon a Time - through the finale:
Overall fun show. I liked how they wound up the season with everyone remembering who they were "holy crap, I'm Cinderella!" and I hope it stays that way. (NGL 57% of this is so that Mary Margaret and David WILL DIE ALREADY. OR AT LEAST SHUT UP.) I'm crossing my fingers that the Lost folks learned their lesson about dragging things out forever and ever and ever. Stories like this need a timeline that's based on storytelling rather than network renewals. I still have never watched the last few episodes of Lost due to extreme indifference. ANYWAY. I'd definitely tune in next season. My guess is that next season will be filled with trying to find a way back to fairy tale land, with people being divided on wanting to stay or go. And then S3 would be set up for taking place in fairy tale land.
I'm not quite sympathetic to Regina yet. It's hard to excuse being a colossal murdering asshole even if your mother was a colossal murdering asshole. A few emo feels about one person doesn't bring people back from the dead! Or maybe it does. Hard to tell in this universe. - Community - through the finale:
Actually I don't even remember what happened in the finale. Something about a fake Dean yada yada. But the 8-bit computer game episode was BRILLIANT. I watched it twice right after it aired (I'm becoming really addicted to Hulu Plus) and I'll probably watch it again. "NO WITNESSES." XD
- Game of Thrones 2x08:
Pretty much nothing happened in this episode, except for characters moving into different positions (presumably there's a knock-down drag-out battle(s) coming.) 1) Happy that Arya escaped with the dude that I'd ship her with 10 years from now. 2) Hope that Joffrey goes into battle because it will be hilarious. 3) Want Dragon Lady to go to the undying place because that storyline is being boring. 4) Brienne is still a horrible, horrible actress. I'm fairly convinced it's not just the writing. (I'm still confused as to how she wound up in the mix, given that there's quite a bit of stellar acting everywhere otherwise.)
I dub you Sir Moron.

- Again they tease with the creepy stuff that goes on beyond The Wall. I WANT TO SEE THIS STORY ALL THE TIME, DAMMIT.
- Wow, Ned is really dumb. Why is it in stories like this that honor and intelligence never seem to go together? If a character is honorable, they won't have the ability of strategy. Also the opposite - if a character can strategize, it must mean they're a dishonorable person. It drives me a bit nuts.
- If Arya dies will be MIFFED. Sansa...meh. (I still don't hate Sansa or anything -- I understand why she's doing what she's doing -- but I'm still not that interested in her as a character.) The other brothers - I still can't tell them apart so if one of them is killed I probably won't notice one of them missing.
- I don't care who wins the throne, but someone needs to take out the weird breast-feeding woman.
- ZOMBIES! XD XD XD
In other news, this pic is now my computer wallpaper. Not only is it otter Sherlock and hedgehog John cuteness, it was tweeted by Martin Freeman's S.O.! It's awesome and makes me grin every time I see it!
And now back to watching Gordon Ramsay being an asshole to people.
