Hellcats, Criminal Minds, Undercovers
Sep. 29th, 2010 10:13 pmCriminal Minds was quite meta when it came to JJ's exit. It was sad and I don't want her to go but it's happened. Still, I'm not sure if I'm going to continue on with this show, at least, I won't be as committed to it as I used to be. Next week looks okay. I'll probably watch it if I'm not busy doing something else.
Hellcats is better than I imagined. I'm liking it so far.
Undercovers is okay; I can easily just watch the first ten minutes, skip the middle, and then return for the last five and not feel like I'm missing anything.
Right now I'm flipping between Terriers and the new L&O.

well now this trend needs to die
Jun. 15th, 2010 10:57 pmWhy are all the rumors for upcoming tv stuff making me quell rage? Criminal Minds, you are pissing me off--and I'm getting the vibe that this is more the hand of CBS (which I have problems with)--but it is still angry making and it's not something I'm going to get over. (ETA: there is word that a new woman will take JJ's place so at least the balance will be slightly maintained. Still Emily better stick around & the cast continues to be stellar people)
But now I'm hearing the rumor that in the USA Skins remake the character of Maxxie may be replaced with a lesbian. Right. Why would they do that? Why does the media seem to live by the highlander method of casting gay characters? There can be both a gay and a lesbian kid (please let that be the case). This remake is feeling like MTV wants to coast on the Skins name but stripping the remake of its essence. Still, I'm holding back complete judgement until I see the final product.

even with proof, belief eludes me
Jun. 15th, 2010 10:18 amWell, my post from last night doesn't seem to want to go my way and become an unfortunate rumor. It looks like JJ is gone and Emily will be around less.
According to Ausiello, AJ Cook is leaving the show. I don't like this. Every team member is crucial to the team, and yes they have had cast changes but they maintained the balance, and that doesn't seem to be what's happening here. At least some of the comments are giving me hope.

no promised repeats
May. 26th, 2010 09:01 pmToday was very busy (chores and the like) but I've come across some nifty things today.
A post going through the teams for this year's World Cup and comparing them to American teams. I don't know how accurate this is but it did make me even more intrigued and laid out all the teams, so now I have a better idea who is who when I watch some of the games on ESPN this summer.
I have a growing adoration for Janelle Monae. This doesn't help.
After stumbling another whine about publishing dying, and almost all of them are tiring and I don't know why I click on them because they all sound the same at the end. To remedy the facepalming, I went and read this:
Right now I'm watching the series finale of Criminal Minds and I'm so tense. Seventeen minutes left! I'll probably post about it tonight if I'm not too distraught.

1) everything that’s already in the world when you’re born is just normal;
2) anything that gets invented between then and before you turn thirty is incredibly exciting and creative and with any luck you can make a career out of it;
3) anything that gets invented after you’re thirty is against the natural order of things and the beginning of the end of civilisation as we know it until it’s been around for about ten years when it gradually turns out to be alright really.
Apply this list to movies, rock music, word processors and mobile phones to work out how old you are.

Wednesday!!! Glee and Criminal Minds
Nov. 25th, 2009 10:24 pmOkay Criminal Minds kind of broke me tonight. Oh, Hotch!
I've got a question about it, so if anyone watched it, please drop a comment.
( question about Criminal Minds tonight//spoilery )
Glee--
I enjoyed it. Imagine was rather sweet (though I didn't start crying), my favorite was actually True Colors. I'm loving the more ensemble vibe.

Criminal Minds
Sep. 23rd, 2009 11:41 pmOkay so I really shouldn't try to watch two shows simultaneously (Glee and Criminal Minds) but my finger was agile and fierce and I managed to watch most of both. I do need to rewatch Criminal Minds though.
( spoilers for criminal minds tonight; also a question )
If anyone else watched CM, what do you think?
