 Attempt  to post #2

Starks all around at the moment. Starks of Winterfell and Tony Stark.   Up to book 4 of A Song of Fire and Ice, this one is a bit slower than the others but still good. Easy to read too.

Rewatching GoT season 1 - along with BtVS Season 4 and AtS S1 alongside each other. Can't wait for GoT to start in April.

Totally underwhelmed by the new shows I started watching and hanging onto SPN by the skin of my teeth - has it been renewed for Season 8 yet? Gah the last two eps have been really bleugh.

There, that's about it for now.  Attempt to post #1 was longer - perhaps I'll come back later and expand.

It's new season TV very very soon (that came round fast)  and this will be what I'll be 'watching'   

Dollhouse - Whilst I really got caught up in the last half of the first season, I've yet to feel the same intense way with this Whedon show as I do with the 3 that came before.  I'm hoping that things will only get better. I've avoided S2 plot spoilers but not some of the huge casting news that has been flying around.   The Season One DVD's came last weekend. J is away in Germany for a few days so I think I'll settle down and do a rewatch, check out the unaired pilot and just start mentally cataloging scenes for the two vid bunnies I have so far.

SPN - I felt strange about the finale. I may dig it out and watch it again before the S5 premiere. I guess I'll tune in out of curiosity and because Castiel is pretty. *is shallow*

Bones - I'm loyal, I like looking at David, but will wait until it airs over here as I think I lost patience with the willtheywontthey factor. 

Glee - I've heard things about this, I've no idea what it is about so it will be cool to find out. It sounds happy so that's good. More happy is what we need.

Caprica - I'd like to see what Jane Espenson does with the project plus James is doing a guest turn.

Leverage - Fun Fun Fun show.

Catching up on DVD's and late to the party for :

The Wire
- How awesome is this show?  THIS MUCH  *stretches out arms*  J & I have just seen the S3 finale and love it to bits. Fascinating slow burning stories that just got us hooked in.  Wonderful characters - I think I love a little bit of most of them but have a soft spot for Freeman.  

True Blood - We're up to episode 7 I think - We laughed our assess off at a couple of episodes. Nothing like knob gags to get us rolling in the aisles.   (is it supposed to be funny?)  The credits never get old,  too - awesome.

House - I lost track of S5 somewhere in the summer. I want to catch up but not really fussed enough to do rush off and find the missing ones.

Legend of The Seeker
- This looks cool and escapism, with swords and stuff - I'll be starting on season one soon I hope.

Pushing Daisies - I never got to see the last few episodes they held back following the cancellation announcement.

BSG - Watched the 3 hour mini series two days ago. I actually have a vid song so I want to do a whole recap from the beginning. Looking forward to it.

Is there something I should be checking out?  I feel I may have left off something vital.  I may catch up on Castle and Chuck too.

Heee! some finales last night eh?  I love the caplocks, incoherent posts from my flist (thanks for putting spoilers behind a cut ) I'll most likely get the SPN one tonight and watch it.  Bones I'll watch live here in a couple of weeks (or cave in and acquire it). Watched the pilot of 'Lie To Me' last night - Tim Roth is wonderful.  It was good but I was tired and I flagged a little at the end.

Just for the record - I really enjoyed the Dollhouse Finale.  I need to watch the whole thing again from scratch,  I do hope it gets another season or at least a few more episodes.  Ever the optimist with the glass half full,  I guess after Monday we'll know.  I also wish to say that I would like TSSC to be renewed too and don't understand the haters from either fandom (who cares who broke Fox's voicemail- does it really matter)  You can like both shows, you know.   (Oh and Chuck - I bought sandwiches!)  Is that too many wishes for the 'renewal fairy' to handle?

Here's the new sketch of Summer Glau as River. (I used an old Firefly promo shot so she's very young )  Summer told me that she hadn't seen this particular picture before - and then I pointed out that I had just 'done' it this weekend and the realised that it was original.  She is very gracious, even when she was clearly nursing a poor throat.  Her friends (who had come to the Con with her) came and found me in the autograph room so they could have a good look at it too :)

Rogue have just announced that Jensen Ackles is now appearing with Jared at their gig in Coventry next year

So just to let you all know *SQUEEEEEEEEE*

I really don't care about the Smallville peeps but the boys together sounds great.

Can't tell you anything about Rogue - but go, look and drool.....

ETA I thought this may have clashed with one of Starfury's gigs but it looks as if it is a little earlier than the one 'Breakout' where JA was originally rumoured to have been slated to attend. Has someone pipped Sean Harry to the post again?

I can't believe I have no cons booked for next year yet. I may pop and see James at Collectormania and perhaps take Ellie - she'd like to meet him. Come on Sean we need Nathan for Serenity 4 and I'll buy tickets (Or Adam even)
