Television catch-up time like WHOA.

House - spoilers up through 8x04

Firstly, loving the complete changeup this season. Having an only female team is actually pretty great although it's gonna be fun having the guys back too. And just.. the whole sub-plot with the volunteer new girl (I'm bad with names) and House getting so close to guessing why she was dressed up, and then.. paying for all the stuff and letting her beat the crap out of it to get her anger out. His smile at the end said it all.

Wilsoooooon. I love that tweet by someone on staff saying something like it was really weird that RSL had to read a scene that didn't have Hugh Laurie in it. Like, that hasn't happened in SO long. Years. I did love his one little scene with the new girl though cause just <33333 and then his counter-bet with House to help her keep her job. And "What five grand?" and the look on his face, adorbs.

And and and. Jamie Bamber is in next week's episooooode. As the patient. And his condition looks creepy but omg. Soexcited.


Ringer - all six episodes so far.

HOLY CRAP THE PLOT IS GETTING SO TWISTY BENDY.
New sponsor Charlie is so nice BUT HE'S ACTUALLY A BAD GUY ALL ALONG WAT. o_____o;
Aaaah and of course Bridget!Siobhan isn't actually pregnant so that ultrasound result should be interesting. And after all the THIS BABY IS WONDERFUL NEWS from the dad too omg. And her old sponsor is back and knows everything about her and aaaaaaah. Acting is pretty awesome, I love all the 'I'm really talking about myself' stuff because you KNOW she's a different person now. It's like OSHIT he's gonna find out sooner or later.
And the acting is just... love it. They all have little storylines and things and it really fleshes all the characters out nicely.


Glee - through 3x03

Geez, I'm getting so sick of this show. I swear, the musical numbers are the only thing I even care about anymore and it seems like even those are becoming more contrived/product placement. Like that Katy Perry song everyone but Santana sang. They're a bunch of high schoolers who can't legally drink WHY ARE YOU SINGING ABOUT GETTING DRUNK AND CLUBBING. :| DOES NOT COMPUTE. I pray they don't screw up all the West Side Story songs in their plot.
And now next week they're all like ... gaaaah nothx, you've turned into a soap opera. and it's not pretty. DNW.

Luther - I'm currently in the middle of watching 2x02.

RIPLEYYYYYYYY. Poor boy. The look on everyone's face when they heard him screaming through the phone. ;____;
Might be able to finish season two toni---WAIT WHAT THE FFF WHY DID DID THEY JUST DRIVE A NAIL THROUGH HIS HAND OW OW OW OW OW OW WHY DID THEY EVEN DO THAT WHAT HAPPENED IDEFK
...wait now what Luther wat are you doing go see someone about that bleeding hole in your hand not break into houses with it. :| :| :| :|

Edit: I was literally doing victory laps and shaking my fists in the air when Ripley was all GOOD TO SEE YOU and punched. him. out. YEAAAAAH RIPLEYYYY :DDDD when he looked at Luther and Luther's all 'your turn to arrest him'. CMOA, Ripley, CMOA. You earned it.

Basically, this. Like wtf happened? The front 13 of S1 were awesome. The back 9 were pretty good and then last season happened and now this season and omg someone just shoot me because its just so bad.

Ringer however is awesomeee. I was so meh at the beginning and basically watching for SMG but its gotten really pretty great and all whutt and twisty and stuff. I like.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

Glee: I know right. Seriously, this new episode I am possibly the least interested in out of all of them. Season 1 was epic compared to this crap.

Ringer: I was initially intrigued and SMG and Ioan Gruffudd but now it's like omg omg omg this is excellent stuff and plotty plot and I can actually follow it and it still surprises me. Love it.

[fromtheashess]

All these random ass people from fricking Glee Project I'm like yeah no go away please. What happened to focusing on the cast they have already? Ugh seriously. I know! Like this stuff makes Season 1 look like the royalty of tv.

I know I'm so loving it and I very rarely actually love a CW show. I watch them just to watch more or less but I actually like this show and look forward to it every week.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

Was that that random Irish kid? I read about Glee Project and I HATE how he's all like YOU'RE ALL WINNERS HERE HAVE A STORY ARC EACH or something stupid. They have a good cast but I guess they can't come up with anything original anymore. Also. More ranting. WHY IS PUCK KISSING SHELBY I MEAN WHAAAT. I just got through agreeing with my little sister that I liked their relationship as it dealt with being parents and the baby but I didn't wa--AND THEN THAT.

ME TOO. I'm literally flailing by the end of each episode as they're all so good without hitting the LOLZ SOAP OPERA button yet.

[fromtheashess]

Yeah it was him and that other chick who can't sing. Well the character I guess the actress can. IDEK. Its cool for them and all but sooo annoying. Like they couldn't come up with something else then randomly throwing them in there. Who the fuck knows. I legit somehow missed that, maybe I blocked it out when I was watching idek but thats so wrong on so many levels I can't even.

I KNOW! I'm always omg is it next week yet? I want moar.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

FFF, man, she won? Cause she's been in multiple episodes. It SUCKS that you win a SINGING SHOW and get cast as THAT TONE-DEAF OBNOXIOUS KID. On a show that gets broadcast like eerrrywhere. Realllyy??? Faiiil.

[fromtheashess]

So I looked it up cuz I had zero idea about any of this stuff just that people from Glee Project would be on Glee. Apparently the chick who can't sing isn't from Glee Project she's just an average, run of the mill annoying, pointless guest star. So maybe she really can't sing. Idek. There were two co-winners and two runners up. The Irish kid was one of the co-winners. So apparently there are two more dudes and one chick that are showing up. The runners up get two episodes and the co-winners get 7. Apparently the one runner up (the girl) showed up already. She was in the premiere as the leader or whatever of that group Rachel and Kurt went to see or whatever.

Oh wait seriously? ffffffff
SEVEN EPISODES THAT'S LIKE HALF A SEASON EACH

[fromtheashess]

According to this article from August, yeah. Seven is kind of overkill. 2-4 is good. Even four is kinda pushing it though really. Irish dude was alright at best but I don't really care about him. Can we please focus on the cast we have already? Good lord.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

I think I'd be writing angry letters and raeging elsewhere too but honestly I don't even care about the show anymore. :/
I think a better award would be like, one or two episodes max for the winners/second place, a walk-on speaking role or non-speaking for runners up, and anyone else deemed good enough after that can be on the set for a day or two and see what it's like, and like.. bring Ryan Murphy coffee or something.

[fromtheashess]

Yeaaaah me either really. I mostly just watch for the music but even that is barely holding my interest anymore. Yeah this is all a bit much. No one cares about these people and no one wants them taking up screen time.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

Oh oh oh and did I mention how much I hate their version of It's Not Easy Being Green? THAT SONG IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DEPRESSING AT ALL

[fromtheashess]

Haha. I think I just kind of tuned that out.

[jomadge.livejournal.com]

Yay! Glad you're enjoying House as much as me. Your spoilers are through 8x04, though. :-)

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

Really? Oops. Edited.
For me, this season is pretty much easily the best in several years as far as characters are concerned. Love it. Get back to basics but shake it up a bit. I never thought I'd like Foreman as much as I do right now. And- gah, I have no House icons to properly express my love. XD

RIPLEY. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This is a summary of my thoughts.

[shinydinosaur.livejournal.com]

He is just too amazing. Gets tortured and escapes all by himself and then hardly stops for breath before going after this guy with Luther. A+ RIPLEY.
Of course I'm also yelling at Luther to go to a doctor with that nail-in-hand business idek why it happened but yeah. Ripley = <3
