I am not optimistic about the next series of Skins. I've heard so many little things about it that add up to me feeling like they're just bein like..."Now that we got your attention we're just gonna do the same old tired shit."
I was unaware that one of the novels apparently heavily went with the idea of Mini being very attracted to Liv. I would be insanely happy about this, but the novels are probably really bad and it seems about as valid as somebody writing it in fanfic at this point :/

I am experiencing my occasional hankering to watch The Departed, which I sadly do not own. Though, one of these days I really need to watch the Hong Kong movie it's based on.

I just removed a bunch of icon journals from my f-list because they make me want more icon space and that's silly. I hate how the icon extensions are so huge, when I could do with maybe more like five more, but maybe I should be happy that's not available cause dropping money on icons would be ridiculous for me to do.

I started watching Southland from the start. I'm quite enjoying it but sucking at learning any of the characters' names, except for Ben's (because that's the actor's real name and it's easy to remember). But basically I like cops but I usually hate procedurals so it is a good show for me to watch :) I dropped off at the end of the second season and Shep says I will probably love S3 and he is probably right.

Spoilerific commentary on other shows, some pretty brief, some not so brief:

spn: and then there were none )

skins gen 3 )

AND LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE MISFITS LADIES AND GENTS )

In other news, I'm really, really pissed that LCD Soundsystem is no more. Honestly at this point I should just resign myself to the fact that I'm never going to see a dance artist I really love before I die. Fuck.

So I finally finished some show seasons that aired forever ago, and here are my thoughts.

SKINS )


WHITE COLLAR )

If you're on my f-list and watch those shows, there's a good chance I stalked some old reaction posts but felt kind of weird replying to them way late. Eheh.


Day 15 - A song that you listen to when you're sad
Day 16 - A song that you want to play at your wedding
Day 17 - A song that you want to play at your funeral
Day 18 - A song that makes you laugh
Day 19 - A song that turns you on
Day 20 - A song you've listened to after a break-up
Day 21 - A song that gives you shivers
Day 22 - A song you can't help but air-jam to

Happeh thanksgiving if you celebrate it. I'm so excited about all the homemade pie we've got sitting around. Not so excited about the overwhelming amount of pets in the house.

Speaking of delicious things, I got a Delicious, mostly for memming stuff without having to use LJ memories which I'm starting to have finnicky problems with.

There are too many movies I want to see right now, jeez.

As was promised, I am watching a bunch of Skins with my sister over my break. I expected JJ's episode to be better, I don't understand whether we're supposed to understand why everyone wants Effy (cause I don't), and Pandora is practically intolerable. I'm up to the twins episode, which I'm confident will get interesting.

I don't want to take a nap, but I feel like I'm about to pass out.

DOIT

3. "If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
4. "You are one sick puppy" Ship:
5. "I dabble a little" Ship:
6. "It's like a car crash" Ship:
7. "Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
8. "Makes no canon sense but why the heck not" Ship:
9. "Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:


My sister made me watch a few episodes of Skins, starting with season 3 cause she thinks it has better characters than the first couple seasons. In its happier moments, it reminds me of the atmosphere I attempted to create with my high-school-kids-based-on-Peanuts-characters composite novel I wrote for a senior seminar (I am aware that one, it's absurd that I got credit for writing something like that and two, Dog Sees God exists, but it's a little too dark in my opinion), which makes watching it kind of surreal, especially since in my head I can't stop thinking that JJ=Schroeder. Though actually it didn't take me too long to compare the Freddy/JJ/Cook group to James/Remus/Sirius, and the comparison has really stuck in my head. I have a feeling it all gets way more depressing at some point, but it's also pretty damn funny at some points. Somebody explain to me why Cook is my favorite. I'm too embarrassed to even say who I ship as of yet, so let's let those opinions ferment for a while.

Thank god the seasons are short though. I feel like I no longer want to devote the time to getting into TV fandoms. If I'm not immediately addicted in the first few episodes I just give up.
