krickets→ This week has been weird and I have been oddly sick and yet still not feeling like total shit. Fatigue and a fever, with only muscle aches to accompany it -- seriously? This is how being sick should be! (AKA, I have a seriously low threshold for pain, thus this is my dream cold/flu - relatively pain-free, yet super duper tiring.) So if I haven't responded to comments and such, you know why.
→ I'm rewatching Shameless with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gigglemonster. Correction. I'm re-watching it, and she's watching it for the first time. It is glorious. Lip and Ian are even better the second time around. And Kev is pretty much the best non-Gallagher. Except for Steve and Karen, o'course. No. In fact, it's a close race and I am not entirely sure who is ahead at this point. Basically this show is love and stars in my eyes etc., etc.
→ I have some serious Vampire Diaries anxiety happening right now. I might have to kill myself later... metaphorically speaking. I have so many thoughts but I feel like it's probably best to keep these things to myself at the present moment. I want to not watch it and wait for reviews, but I know I am like a meth addict in need of another hit and I will end up watching it live anyway. Ugh. I need to throw up.
→ Can I just say that freaking Parenthood rocked my socks this week? Joel Graham is such a unique character on television and in life. (In fact, I'm pretty sure he could only exist in a fictional world.) Just this... soft-spoken but deeply-feeling stay-at-home dad/perfect husband. Pretty much the opposite of Zeek. Not that Zeek can't be likable and awesome at times, but never in the way that Joel can be/is. I had tears in my eyes. This is what real love feels like.
→ I started watching Suburgatory. Actually not bad. Cute and a great cast. It really rounds out Wednesday's powerhouse ABC lineup really nicely. Like I needed more television to watch? (No, I didn't. That was sarcasm.)
→ Hart of Dixie is pretty much amazing. Despite the fact that I was having hair issues with the lead character in the first couple of eps. It was just kind of all over the place and not at all practical? Put it in a ponytail doc! Seriously? But now I am pretty much in love with everybody. Even Lemon, who is baffling and yet at the same time really sympathetic. I loved Jamie's rant at the dinner table last episode. She was perfect.

Date: 2011-10-21 06:12 am (UTC)TVD - OMFG!!!! I have So many thoughts and feelings in the episode that's it's all kinda haywire right now :s But I'll have to watch it again get my thoughts in order and update. Loved this episode though <3
I stopped watching Parenthood after Season 1 and I don't know why. I'll have to pick it up again. It was probably cause I watch too much TV and can't keep track of myself :s
Hart of Dixie - I agree on her hair. It was... Everywhere and just a mess. Like she woke up and never brushed it or the wind went through it :x I always go for the ponytail if my hair is crazy :p

Date: 2011-10-21 07:48 pm (UTC)I'm actually pretty frustrated with this season. Which is a realization I'm just now coming to. Despite enjoying the episodes themselves, I feel like all my worst fears are all coming true. I can't remember how exactly you feel about Damon, but I am completely livid that they still haven't allowed him to legitimately redeem himself, instead they've chosen to tear down two important characters (Stefan and Tyler) in order to make Damon look like the picture of sanity. Not cool in my book. (Especially considering that 5 episodes ago he was still sleeping with a woman who had been compelled/brainwashed/rufied to love him.) I was really hoping for something more with his character this season, but was fully expecting this sort of "I look good in comparison to these jokers" non-redemption. I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised, but apparently that was wishful thinking.
Sorry that is probably a rant you were not wanting to hear.
You should definitely catch up with Parenthood. It remains fabulous despite my expectations for the opposite.
Yeah? What crazy hairstylist were they using up until this last episode. Even when she wore it down in this ep it looked better. But all preceding episodes it was just a hot mess.
