Apparently I'm feeling kind of negative today. :/

- Blah, I feel weirdly disconnected from fandom even though I haven't actually gone anywhere. Although it seems to have been a bit quiet in general the last few days? Clearly we need more of those cast interviews, and by that I mean MEG'S.

- Like the entire rest of the world, I've been watching Glee. I really like it, it's a lot of fun, but I'm kind of waiting for the supporting characters to be fleshed out a bit more because right now they mostly feel like stereotypes. Also, DNW Finn/Rachel; Rachel is awesome, but Finn is BORING. So I can see that storyline getting tedious before very long. Also, NEEDS MOAR KURT.

- I watched the finale of True Blood and was kind of disappointed. I liked the first half, but the second half was completely pointless and a lot of it, like Eggs' death and Bill's kidnapping, just seemed contrived. Without Maryann, I'm not really sure how much I'm going to like season three, and if they continue playing up the stupid Bill/Sookie/Eric love triangle it's going to get annoying fast. (Eric's starting to bore me; I always hate the dudes that have the most fangirls. Sorry, Eric fans!)

- Does anyone know of any shows that are starting soon that look interesting? Usually I'm pretty up-to-date with what's happening in American TV but for some reason this year I'm not. And I really feel like I need new shows to watch, so any recommendations would be awesome.

MEG'S INTERVIEW WOULD BE THE ANTIDOTE FOR EVERYTHING EVER. lolll

BTW, I totally agree about TB. I was disappointed at how quickly the Maryann thing was resolved. It just seemed like a lot of buildup for nothing, you know? And, UGH, Jessica you were doing so well! :/

Gossip Girl starts up again tonight. Maybe it’ll be good? *HOPES

The only thing better than Meg's interview would be if Meg and Kaya did an interview together. (I don't even know if I've ever really seen them interact? But it would obvs be amazing.)

Oh man, I'm so behind on Gossip Girl! I haven't even seen the episodes where Georgina came back, and I love her. And yet I don't know if I can actually be bothered to catch up. :/

LOL I hear ya. There were quite a few eps last season where I was like, "UGH WHY did I waste my time," but then there are times when it's totally funny and brilliant and usually those times are named BLAIR WALDORF. I just can't quit it.

I'm planning to watch The Beautiful Life, which starts on Wednesday, but I don't have very high hopes of it being good. You never know, though.

Oh, I hadn't heard of that. I just had a look and I'm not sure it's really my thing - and the fact that Mischa Barton's in it doesn't really inspire me with much hope.

[identity profile] poptasticuk.livejournal.com 2009-09-14 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's my main problem with it. Still, it's a teen show so I feel obliged to give it a go, and I'm curious to see what Chad from HSM is like in it.

DOLLHOUSE. ♥

Oh man, Dollhouse!! I can't wait for season two, although I'm so annoyed that Amy Acker's not going to be in it much this year.

I am very much disappointed re: Amy Acker as well. :C And I am not pleased with things I have read re: Ballard, who I want to get hit by a fucking bus yesterday, kthnx.

Thanks, I'll see if I can find a trailer!

D: I haven't heard anything about Ballard (trying to stay spoiler-free for this show) but I agree, he can DIAF.

Don't worry, I won't spoil. But it is not a good thing. >|

Sidenote, though, I may or may not have started writing an E/N AU based on a certain movie.

!!!!!!! AWESOME.

Hee. I knew you'd like it.

I'd add you as a beta, but you don't like beta-ing until it's finished, right?

[identity profile] botherd.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm weird like that. I'd be happy to beta once it's finished, but if you're already covered I'll just wait until it's posted. Really excited to read it either way!

:O She's not?

Silly, silly Dollhouse, setting an episode of a show with a wobbly floor a good few years into the future...

Cheerio, Michael. xxx

She got a part in some other show, presumably because she figured that Dollhouse would be cancelled. She will still be around, just not very much. It sucks, because with the Whiskey reveal she became the most interesting character to me.

Flash Foward looks amazing and it's by the people who made Lost!

Oh, awesome! Will search out a trailer. :D
