Odds and Ends

I haven't posted much lately because I have very little to report. I'm just spending most of the week catching up on my DVR and getting ready for the holiday.

  • "The Walking Dead" seems to be taking a different tact this round, with each episode having a different story with various characters, but not all. Prior seasons seem to be very linear, where this season has multi-arcs going on.

  • "American Horror Story: Freak Show" is not as scary as previous seasons. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet, as it seems to drag, but then has these really interesting story moments. I like the characters and the back stories they have, but there doesn't seem to be a consistent villain in the show right now. The musical bits are odd too. I liked the ones by Jessica Lange and Sarah Paulson, but when Lobster Boy did a Nirvana song, I think they jumped the shark.

  • "Sleepy Hollow" is as good as always. Last night's episode was interrupted by the Ferguson, MO grand jury decision. I'm not making any comments on that one as I don't know all the facts. If only others would do that.

  • I've been enjoying odds and ends too, like "Bob's Burgers" and "Black Dynamite."

  • I still need to catch up on "The Flash."

I must admit, I'm about three episodes behind on "Sleepy Hollow". I've got to catch up, as I really do admire the writing and characters; plus, I have a bit of a crush on Tom Mize who plays Crane:) "Sleepy Hollow's" on an evening when I have a lot programmed on the DVR and I've had problems with the new one in the apartment.

Tom Mison is a hottie, isn't he? And the accent makes me a bit weak. :)

Everyone tells me about shows I should watch, but there just aren't enough hours in the day really.

Exactly, the tall, lean, dark hair, bearded with a British accent. Yum! :)

I'm loving Horror Story, but agree the Nirvana song was annoying. Actually, that whole episode was pretty meh overall..... tho, the murder at the end, kinda heartbreaking.

I think because of the setup of the whole series, with a complete and different story each season, it's easier for me to not really compare them at all i.e. this one is scarier than that one etc. I know Asylum was my least favorite (tho I really did enjoy it) and Coven totally rocked my world, that seems to be the opposite of most others opinion of the seasons but enh... I like what I like :)

I'm loving the Flash, but I still can't get used to Barry as a brown haired guy. I think what bugs me even more is that the guy playing Eddie Thawne is *exactly* what I think Barry should look like. So I keep looking at him and thinking Barry. Actually, Grant Gustin as he's playing Barry would have been an awesome Wally now that I think about it.

I do like the "Freak Show" theme and the back stories for the characters. Watching Amazon Eve beat the $#!+ out of Dell was GREAT! The murder at the end was incredibly sad.

And I have been liking The Flash even though he's not a blond. I think it stays pretty true to the character for the most part.

I don't like horror. I think I'm a bit of a freak on LJ in that regard (which is perhaps an irony?).

I havent watched Sleepy Hollow this year because the season finale was so over the top. Should I give it another chance?

Flash is fabulous, and Arrow's John Barrowman's Palm Springs house is only a few streets away!
