My feelings about the latest Doctor who episode is fairly jumbled so in lieu of untangling them, I've been rewatching the River episodes and have a few thoughts.
1. In the Time of Angels, the Doctor mentions they're at Delirium, "the final resting time of the headless monks". Interesting.
2. Looking back the SITF/FOTD two partner, it's amazing how well it works. I've watched it three times...and each time as our relationship with River deepens, my perception of her in that episode (and that episode's ending in particular) evolves. I don't know that I believe that the Moff planned all of this, but quite a lot of it works well in retrospect
In other news, I really like River Song |

I really haven't enjoyed network TV this much in a long time. I have a whole three shows that I love (and a number of other shows that I like in a we're just friends kind of way). Community, Parks & Rec, and Doctor Who -- and yes I know, one of these is not like the other -- are just rocking my world right now.
I just love every single person in each of the shows. Talk about casts with chemistry. Seriously. Rory! Amy! RIVER! Matt Smith's Face! Annie and her giant eyes! Abed and Troy's true love! GIANT PAINTBALL GUNS. Ron Swanson! Bright! Rob Lowe? Rob Lowe! The faces Ben is always making in the background! How much he and Leslie need to be making out right now!
Okay, I've run out of exclamation points. That was tiring. And I know that no doubt, by next year, I will be into some other flavor of the week but right now they are just really making me happy. I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts. |

I'm interrupting my usual schedule of not posting to say, the new series of Dr. Who looks SO GOOD.
That is all. Move along. |

Oh hey folks, I guess it's time for my semi-annual check in. ::taps microphone:: Anyone still out there? Life has been incredibly busy lately, although much less so since Tuesday (feel free to guess what field I work in).
Doctor Who: Utterly delightful. Less epic than the past few seasons in the best kind of way. I use the wedding scene from the season final as an automatic pick me up.
Fringe: Haven't watched any of this season, not sure why. I'm about to have a lot of open time in my schedule so hopefully I'll catch up soon.
Glee: I watch, but I don't know why
Bones: I watch and I know why, but I'm not sure I like it
And then, the only thing I seem to have anything to say about..( The Hunger Games! Spoilers through the whole trilogy ) |

I haven't seen an episode of Lost since the second season and I just bawled like a baby at the finale. I cried for the reunions of characters I have never seen before. This is embarrassing. I have become quite the soft touch. |

Fringe is....much better than I had been led to believe? Is season one worth watching to increase enjoyment of the current season?
I may even like the show beyond my lingering crush on Joshua Jackson from his Pacey era. |

I got a new job today, hurray! Hopefully it will be less soul sucking, spirit quenching than my current one.
But more importantly...
( BONES! ) |

Merry Christmas everyone! I've sifted through the Yuletide stories a bit- well to be honest, really just the SCC ones. But I'm a tad miffed because this week has been all bones! all the time! And there are no bones yuletide stories and as far as I can tell, only a handful of decent Bones stories elsewhere. If I'm going to be interested in a story with very little fandom I should get some yuletide dammit. Seems only fair.
Speaking of which, I am totally head over heels in love with Bones. It's like X-files....if Chris Carter handed over the reins to a couple of die hard shippers midway through the show's run. I'm not saying it's necessarily good but Booth and Brennan hit all of my weak places. (Partners against crime with painful pasts who are funny!)
I didn't even hate the end of season three. I think perhaps knowing what would happen, I saw clues all along- or invented them- I don't want to give the writers too much credit. If this was a fandom worth its salt, somebody would've written PTSD-y Zach in Iraq stories that explain his foray into the darker side. EDITED to say: The gormogon plot twist actually made *more* sense to me than Angela & Hodgins break up. THAT I will never understand. That is all. Signing back out.
Anyway, Merry xmas and happy holidays and all that! I'm sitting in my new smushy robe with my brand new brookstone pillow anticipating the DVDs I shall buy with my new barnes and noble gift certificates and wondering what I shall watch this evening. I'm guessing: Bones.
Of course this obsession may run its course by the end of the week. That happened to me with Life, Dr. Who, How I met your mother, and others I cannot remember. My love is a fickle, changing love. |

If somebody were to have caught a few Bones episodes on rerun on TNN or TBS or whatever, and were interested in catching up, could somebody recommend episodes to do so? I would love to watch them all, but unfortunately, I do not have the time right now, so I was hoping to create a little mini timeline of important episodes. If those episodes happen to be geared towards the Booth/Bones partnership, even better.
Bueller?
PS- Is it just me or has David Boreanaz gotten more attractive with time?
PPS- Did they intentionally create this show to sucker in people raised on Mulder and Scully or is that just a delightful coincidence? |
