I've been sort of working on this post on and off on my iPod for months now; it was getting ridiculous. So in no particular order, what have I been watching lately?
Torchwood: Miracle Day( Well, at least there was Barrowman Booty. )True Blood( having been driven utterly batty by the events of Harry Potter, Aunt Petunia crosses the pond, adopts several accents and suddenly gets all hardcore badass with the witchery. )Doctor Who( not exactly spoilery but cut anyway. )LouieWatched the first season of this on Netflix. I love me some Louis CK but oooh, this show. It's funny, don't get me wrong, but it's funny in a relentlessly and brutally punching you in the too-close-to-home spots so that you laugh to keep from curling up in a fetal ball and devouring pints of ice cream. Not for the faint of heart or sanity, for sure.
Side note:
cell23 pretty much recreated the route Louie walks in the opening titles while we were in NY just for shits and giggles. Also to see if anyone good was playing the Comedy Cellar that night.
Breaking BadI was not actually expecting to like this show, but after
cell23 and I tried the pilot out on Netflix I'm kinda hooked. Though I hope Bryan Cranston's resemblance to Edward James Olmos stops twigging me; my brain kept supplying
Stand and Deliver and BSG jokes throughout the episode.
Sons of AnarchyThis season lost my attention at episode 5; I'll get back to it at some point. Somehow club internal drama and Juice's contrived racial angst wasn't quite doing it for me... Which sucks because the season opener was jaw dropping, followed by four episodes of ho hum. Feh.
Archer...should run away from home and become a pirate king more often. Just sayin.
Beavis and Butthead( FIRE! FIRE! Heh heh heh heh cool )Thundercats/My Little PonyYes, as you all know i've hopped the pony bandwagon. I'm shocked at myself. But i wasm't really expecting much out of the reboots of either of these cartoons and have been pleasantly surprised by both. Need to finish up both series (thus far) but liking what I've seen.
Parks&Rec/Community( Look out! Blogons! )Whew, does that cover everything? I think so.
