I can watch TV

My reading now is hardly existing. I don't know why, my attention wanders from a book to book, and even when I read a book I like it's hard to finish it. And when I finish it, it's hard to get myself together to write a proper review. Same with movies. Let's try TV then.

My TV veiwing lately became kind of frenzied. I want to watch a lot, but I don't have time or opportunity to do it. So I watch in bits and pieces. And mostly some strange things.

Fringe. That's a winner, because we are watching together with P, and it is very enjoyable to watch stuff together. The problem is that we are watching it on Hulu and therefore have to wait for 8 days after the episode airs. Sad. I also don't feel very “fandomly” about it. I am very enjoying it, and love Olivia and the rest, but cannot quite got to the point of writing essays and reading fanfiction and stuff. I do need some Fringe icons though...

Ringer. Don't know what to say – I want it to succeed and stay, but I don't want to watch it.

Once Upon a Time. I started to watch it because I cannot resist fairy tales with cool female protagonist. It is not the best show, it is not a very good show, but I want to know want will happen next. And how the things will turn out. I like Emma Swan. I like Regina. I like even Snow White (especially after the last episode). I only hope they will bring more fairy-tales in – non-Grimm, non-European, non-white. I understand the need to start with most easily recognizable ones, they've been done to death by now. I am also ready for the boy to be sent away someplace evil, because I can take only so much of a kid who keeps telling everyone what to do.

Need to watch finally: Homeland, Lost Girl, Doctor Who.

Out of sitcoms I am watching now The Big Bang Theory. I know it's lost its luster by now, comparing to others, but I am enjoying their female cast so much! There was a good article on io9 about female characters there that are way cooler than the male ones, and I do agree. They are not very deep and multifaceted, but are smart and funny and more than hold their own with the males on the show. It was a great decision to make Bernadette and Amy Farrah Fowler regulars and hang with Penny on a regular basis. They are playing well off each other and can be hilarious without being ridiculous.

I also watch Raising Hope. Because Martha Plimpton.
