A little update from my last post back in October.

Monday

-- It had a rocky start, but I'm pulling for either JR & Karina or Ricki & Derek to win.
-- Still lovin' the show. Sometimes I get irritated that they're not moving the Beckett/Castle romance along, but I'm trying to be patient.
-- Fun seeing Terry O'Quinn added to the cast as an occasional guest star. Meanwhile the bromance of Steve & Danno is turning epic! lol Their banter is perfection!
-- It's still managing to hold my attention. I must admit, Terrance O'Mara is a big reason I keep watching.

Tuesday

-- I'm still watching this, but half the time I'm wondering why. LOL I guess there's something about the quirky, crazy comedy that keeps bringing me back. Oh, and I do love how the guys are so protective of Jess even though they think she's kinda weird. :P
-- One of my favorite shows every single week. I go through so many emotions is just one hour of this show, usually ending with me in tears. The Bravermans own me heart and soul.

Wednesday

-- I hope Ozzy doesn't screw things up. I'd like to see him win this one. Pulling for Dawn, too. She's a good gal.

Thursday

-- All the twists & turns this show takes keeps me coming back week after week and I love the characters!
-- I tried. I really did, but I've dropped this show. I got sick of the girls screaming over every little big bad they ran into and the dialog just left me feeling flat. It got so bad that I started to fall asleep. Always a bad sign.
-- So I'm trying to get into this show to fill the hole left by TSC. So far...meh. The first episode I watched wasn't too bad, but the last one? Ugh. It's like watching two robots run around. There's no moments of lightness or even a cracked smile. Not sure I'll be able to keep with this show.
-- Has been canceled by NBC. Boo! I've really been enjoying this gritty cop drama. I like Jane. She's one tough cookie, trying to prove herself amongst a squad full of males. I will miss this show. *sigh*

Friday

-- Do I even have to say I'm loving this season? I love them all. *g*
-- Haven't even watched any of this season yet. *hides in shame*

Sunday

-- Of the teams that are left I'm really pulling for Andy & Tommy (these dude always have fun) and Bill & Cathi (yay for the older married couple!).

♦ I keep staring at my new header & background. They look so nice together. :D

♦ Thomas Newman is a great composer. You want a movie soundtrack invoking back country roads, small town America, lazy summer afternoons, soft breezes, and snow covered squares, he's the one you want. Some of my favorite soundtracks are by him. *loves*

♦ I keep wondering if the Daily Fanart pieces of my Caps Redone is just a stupid idea. What am I doing? Slapping a few effects to caps I've already posted here and saying, "Hey! Look! It's different!". Lame. Am I right? I keep feeling I'm doing a disservice to all of you.

♦ I have yet to finish watching Fringe. It's really starting to bug me, but how do I manage finding the time to watch it with VanCon looming before me? *sigh*

♦ There's already been talk of going to VanCon again next year. OMG *squee* :D

♦ I want to start posting my Season 6 caps and doing my S6 B&W Fanart, but again, VanCon prep is sort of taking over at the moment. Might have to wait until Sept.

Been a while since I checked in about the series I'm watching. ;)

( The latest rundown... )

I love Gag Reels! :P I'm still debating whether to get Fringe on DVD.

Thought I'd do a little list of the shows I'm watching & briefly talk about their season finales. :)

( Ten shows...what will happen? Who will survive? - Nothing overly spoilery within )

Just came across this article on Yahoo...

The 10 Shows That Deserve to Return Next Fall (But Might Not)

The one show on the list that I care about? Fringe. Yikes. I had no idea it was in trouble. I thought the ratings were good. I love this show and I'm completely hooked by not only the characters and actors, but by the storyline as well. Damn. I'm not ready to lose another good show. Please don't let it be happening again! :(

It took them a little longer than 2 hours, but all appears well on LJ. However, you know what this means. Something is bound to be screwed up by this maintenance that won't show up until several days from now. *muses* Wonder if this database & server fix will solve that crazy icon swapping problem alot of us have been experiencing off and on?

Anyhoo, LJ Land is back! At least it gave me a reason to work on more photos. Heh.

Fringe was on tonight!

( Spoilery ramblings for tonight's Fringe episode if you haven't seen it yet... )

Oh, and they showed 2 ads for Friday The 13th during Fringe! And they were both new ones I haven't seen before! The first one had quite a bit of Jared. Cool!!!! :D

I looked to see if Jared's going to be on any talk shows to promote the film and came up empty! Whaaaaa???? Why???? I was hoping he'd be on some shows like Jensen was for his film. Bummer. :(

If you haven't heard the news yet, SPN lost to Heroes at the People's Choice Awards. Bleh.

SPN didn't even get mentioned as a nominee because that category was among a bunch where they only briefly showed the winners. Double Bleh.

What did they even need an awards show for anyway? The way the show is run all you need to do is look to see what stars are seated in the audience in order to know who's going to win. Oh, look....it's Kate Hudson....oh, how surprising that she won. Oh, and there's the cast of House....oh, gee...they won, too. In fact, when House won for Favorite TV Drama it looked like most of the show's cast and crew went up on the stage to accept the award. Overkill? Much?

There was no suspense...except for the 2 New TV Show awards (for Drama & Comedy) because the votes for those were still open as the show was on. Triple Bleh for Fringe losing. :(

Hardly any of the nominees I voted for won, except for Dancing With The Stars & Christina Applegate, I was glad to see them win. But what a bore. I remember when this awards show was more fun. Granted, it's no Golden Globes or Oscars, but the PCAs used to be better than this.

*sigh* I hope JDM's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel can lift my spirits some.

I watched JJ Abrams's latest TV venture, Fringe, this evening. I really didn't know too much about the show going in, but I was slightly intrigued and needed a diversion for the evening, so I watched.
