IDK, blame Set It Off. <br /><br />This piece, <a href="http://www.mtvhive.com/2013/01/16/the-only-black-guy-at-the-indie-rock-show/">"The Only Black Guy at the Indie Show"</a>, has floated around my tumblr and twitter feed all week; after finally reading it, I, too, can link it to perhaps broaden its audience. MTV Geek/Hive has some pretty decent writing going on. It's good reading just if you can relate to not what's considered the norm in any 'scene'; it touches on rejecting the music you grew up with, finding your owned identity among something that you're kind of not supposed to, and dealing with others' reaction to it. <br /><br /><span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">( </b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://wishfulclicking.dreamwidth.org/198097.html#cutid1">where I reminisce on concerts</a></b><b class="cut-close"> )</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div> <br /><br />TV Stuff:<br /><br />The Golden Globes were rather charming and light. I don't care about who wins awards because on that path leads madness; or, I should say I am not intense about it but I do like it when what I like is acknowledged but I don't see awards as the definition of best or quality. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were great hosts and the three hours just flowed. <br /><br />Justified is good so far; but it feels somewhat lighter at the moment, I should go back and see if I felt the same way about earlier seasons, but part of it is how at sea Raylan is: he's a father but Winona is gone, he's not really active in a case just yet, and he's not really with the woman (TRUTH TIME: I don't care about Raylan's current fling nor her backyard fighting giant ex). Boyd is not too active yet, though I am looking forward to the match with the preacher's sister (did anyone else get kind of incesty vibes from them...).<br /><br />I miss Mad Men. I miss The Walking Dead. I miss Teen Wolf.<br /><br />New Girl I still like; Nick and Jess are going to be so great together when they get there and settle into it all. <br /><br />Some day I will post on how overlooked comedy is when it comes to positive representation; it feels further along than the lauded, serious dramas. <br /><br />Writing: ha ha!

It transforms the mundane into the truly suspenseful, delivering the kind of episode that is most effective when it is actually transforming something: no show could be this every week, but the idea that a show can become this at will is infinitely more exciting.</blockquote><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=wishfulclicking&ditemid=177543" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-01:168661:176528Justified and Criminal Minds2011-03-17T04:46:26Z2011-03-17T04:46:26Zbouncypublic0<span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">( </b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://wishfulclicking.dreamwidth.org/176528.html#cutid1">discussion of tonight's Criminal Minds and Justified</a></b><b class="cut-close"> )</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=wishfulclicking&ditemid=176528" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
