overinvested

[giddygeek]

Reader, I'm a dumbass. I forgot that my history class today was an optional exam for people who want a chance to bump up their grades, and since my grade is not-bump-upable, I didn't have to go. Normally this is not a big thing, but it means that I could have stayed home this morning and hung out with our delightful surprise guest bayleaf and eaten

HAPPY ENDINGS ONLY. You should be in charge of all television shows; you would do such a more competent job.

WE PLAYED PANDEMIC INSTEAD

AND WE LOST

SORRY ABOUT THAT MASSIVE TRIPLE OUTBREAK, ASIA, IT'S JUST THE KIND OF DAY THIS IS :(

Good thing I'm not in charge of running the CDC?

I think there's a good DS story in you about the crickets! Magical realism crickets! Fraser and Jiminy Cricket! :D

[giddygeek]

HA. Oh my word, Fraser and Jiminy Cricket. I can just--I can see that episode, really; what that says about DS I just don't know.

Or rather I totally know, and what it says is IS THAT YOUR MAGICAL REALISM BAR *jumps it* *twice*

HOW DID I MISS THIS POST!? I WILL BE IN THOSE FANDOMS WITH YOU FOREVERRRRRRR!!!

Also, Almost Human has some issues, but it's only been 2 episodes and I want to roll around in it foreverrrrr, so. Not a POI replacement, and I worry I'll get burned like H50 with this shit, but man. I am already invested. I WANT SHOWS TO BE GREAT. SHOWS, WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO BE GREAT WHEN I AM ROOTING FOR YOU?

YAY FOR FRIENDS IN DEAD FANDOMS-FANDOM. *g*

This is the thing! I'm worried about getting burned! I am apparently incapable of resisting overinvestment and TV shows just don't do what I want! I'm tempted by Almost Human but I might have to give it a little more time. And Agents of SHIELD is on my list--I'm glad to see you've been saying it improves a LOT--but. *side-eyes everything*

Every except, like, Psych. Psych can stay. SO FAR.

I AGREE WITH YOUR COMMENTS NOT OKAY WITH THIS THIS IS NOT OKAY AT ALL W H Y. :((((( they were doing so WELL with having multiple, different, interesting female characters and-- CARTER :((((((((

[giddygeek]

Right? I know not everyone liked the episode with Carter, Shaw and Zoe being bait, but I loved the dynamic between the three of them. I'd have watched that show for 100 episodes, easy!

[shihadchick]

Yeah, I thought they actually pulled off that episode really well, and just- argh. This season took the murder Batman show I thought was fun and made it actually really GOOD and I loved the way the focus moved more onto the women and just aaaaaaargh. :( I would also have watched that show for 100 episodes. :(

[giddygeek]

Right? I would love a secret plot twist--I'll keep my ear to the ground and maybe come back for the episode where we find out that Carter's been DEEP undercover somehow, kicking ass and taking names! &carterrrrrr;
