What's on my mind, what's on your mind?

Below the cut is what I'm watching on TV and what I might like to watch but am not sure about.



Things I am watching

I still can't believe I even gave Once Upon a Time a second chance this season, and now look at me! I think it might be becoming at least a 'Lost' level show--I watch it faithfully, think about it a lot, talk about it a lot, and even defend it to the point of irrationality, but I don't write a whole bunch of fic for it.

Arrow! I know that the writing isn't great and the acting isn't great, but it has a lot of potential. Plus, it has Felicity. I adore her. Either it will be AWESOME in season two and I will be hooked, or it won't be able to sustain my interest (a la Revenge), and it'll quietly fade away from my list.

Castle. I really adore this silly little show. I hesitate to call it a Cop Show, because that's really not the point. I'm just here for the silly banter and ridiculous antics.

Supernatural. Yes, for Amanda Tapping. Though, honestly, I kinda like it. (I saw season 1 several years ago, but haven't watched any of the other seasons besides this one.)

Community. It's not the same. I'm still hanging on and finding things to enjoy, but I don't love it like I used to.

Parks and Recreation. So much love! Ben and Leslie 4Evar! Things I like include: the geeky humor, Ron, grown-up relationships (sorta). Things I could do without: fat jokes, jokes at Jerry's expense.

Bunheads: Off and on, hot and cold.


Things I Want to Give a Chance (but could do with more convincing)

I want to give Continuum a shot, but I'm not sure I want to pay to do so. (I don't ahem things these days.)

I haven't been watching Elementary, but I have caught on that I should be! I'm going to try to figure out how to get caught up on at least the latest few episodes and we'll go from there.

I did try Elementary and I want to like it. It's a very nice looking show, has great sets, talented cast, snappy dialog... but...but... I found the plot itself weak and often predictable. I guess, based on everything I'd heard about it, I expected more. Which is not to say you shouldn't give it a try! I'm sure there's a name for that rule about everybody tuning into the same channel at the same time for a different show. :)

Arrow definitely has potential. The flashbacks are making more sense and the added characters are awesome. Plus...the pretty.

I like Castle too! I've even read one of the tie in novels, hee.

Supernatural I am sadly behind on. I think they had an ep with a monster I get scared/grossed out by and I haven't caught back up--which is why I hadn't started it long ago.

Bunheads: I loved Season 1, but I missed the last couple eps, and I've tried some of Season 2, and it's falling a bit flat for me. All the characters are sounding the same. They all rattle off high speed witty dialogue without much distinct character voices, whether they're fifteen, thirty, or sixty. I find it jarring, even though I like the concept/stories.
