01. Been rewatching Doctor Who with my roommate, who has only ever seen the most recent series, with Eleven and Amy Pond. We just wrapped up Nine last night and we're finally on Ten and I am v. excited about it. I had almost forgotten how much I loved Rose. And Captain Jack. &hearts I'm wondering if I'll be able to get through "Doomsday" ( Read more... )

yay Doctor Who rewatch!

sad to report that I'm not really liking this season of True Blood... and no, that's really not how I was picturing Holly, or Claudine (!!!), or Calvin Norris (ugh). Seems like they're rushing through random storylines of further books, it's so weird. And Bill/Sookie... the dialogue is painful and that love scene? Was that supposed to be sexy? Did not work for me! lol

Thankfully there's Eric, Lafayette(&Jesus), Jason and shirtless!Alcide to keep me watching lol. Oh and Jessica. And Pam (who's supposed to be a regular now but we see even less of her, wtf). They should stop killing off entertaining characters like Franklin and Talbot.

Yeah Calvin Norris doesn't seem like a nice guy, Claudine is weird, Holly is SCARY...and it's true that they're getting into these other storylines fast (like Jason and that dude that pantherizes him, whose name I forget..) but I'm still loving it. Although i can't believe they had Sookie forgive Bill so fast, WTF? Now what will she do when Eric shows up naked without his memories? Stay with Bill? No way.

I am still hoping Franklin's not really dead, I loved him! And I want to see him pwn Tara LOL.

And I KNEW Jesus had something to do with witchcraft. MM hmm.

Rose!!! I love her. I get stupidly defensive when people hate on her. She's brilliant.

And I've been enjoying most parts of True Blood, but omg. I am so sick of Sookie and Bill. Baaaaarf. And I really don't like how weak and passive TV!Sookie is compared to book!Sookie who refused to put up with Bill's shit.

Haha yeah I don't know how people hate Rose, she was so awesome!! And when she cries she makes me SO sad, omg.

And also yeah Sookie and Bill...I was wondering if they'd go through with the whole rape thing on top of him almost killing her, and they didn't and now she forgave him. I feel like in the book the rape thing made it infinitely worse so it was impossible to forgive him. I'm just thinking that this connection Bill has with her ~*fairyness*~ turns her on him, like that he only came to Bon Temps to "recruit" her for the Queen or something.

I don't know, they don't bother me as much as they bother everyone else, despite the fact that I'm totally Sookie/Eric. I'm just waiting for Amnesia!Eric to come rolling up to her house!

I want to read the Passage, just because I've heard good things. What's it about exactly?

It's so good!! It's about...hm...it's a bit in the future, and the government has found this virus in the jungle that creates people that don't age and are super strong and don't get sick, and so they take death row inmates and infect them, but they start turning into these crazy vampire people. And there is a girl who is some kind of chosen one, who in the first line of the book is called "The One Who lived for 1,000 years" or something to that extent ( ... )

She looks like the Joker! Y SO SERIOUS, HOLLY? And doesn't she end up marrying Hoyt? I guess she won't need to because Jessica is obviously going to do that :D
