Oct. 14th, 2011 12:06 pmMusic stuff: So I picked up the new Evanescence album this past Tuesday (I enjoyed it) and put in my pre-order for the new Florence + The Machine album, which comes out at the end of the month.
TV commentary:
Dang. there's too much TV I like on Thursday. You've got Comedy Night Done Right on NBC (well, at least for the first hour and a half, I don't care that much for Whitney, other than she dresses in hot outfits sometimes), The F/X 10pm comedy lineup (IASIP, Archer when its there),
CW's new teen supernatural block of Vampire Diaries/Secret Circle, and I can get my action/intrigue fix from Person of Interest.
Community- Why aren't more people watching this? Maybe its because I tend to be a more TV/movie geek, but I think this show speaks to the geek side of me way more than Big Bang Theory. To me, BBT is a lot of, "Ha, look at those nerds saying nerdy things, isn't that precious!" whereas on Community, Troy and Abed make it seem hip. In any case, last night's ep with the alternate timelines was pretty hilarious. And it was chock full of Jannie moments for the part of me that's ghey like that.
Parks and Rec- You know, this started as an Office rip-off, and I've said before, the 1st season wasn't that great because they were trying too hard to be like the Office, but once they stopped doing that, it became awesome. Honestly, I think this is funnier than the Office currently, and I think it makes better use of the ensemble aspect.
IASIP- Just had to comment on how frickin' weird Broyles looked with the full head of hair and mustache. I was thinking this must be what Capgras people are feeling, because Lance Reddick has a pretty distinct voice, and a distinct look. So to hear that voice coming out of someone not looking like he normally looks was kinda freaky.
Secret Circle- Wait, did that just happen? ( spoiler cut )
Anyhoo, like its sister show, The Vampire Diaries, the Secret Circle is full of pretty people. Not on the level that VD is, because let's face it, VD seems to take in a place where everyone is preternaturally good looking. Its almost ridiculous! And its not just the young cast, Matt's mum was Julie frickin' Cooper, Elena's was Mia Kirshner, Anna's was Kelly Hu, and even Tyler's and Caroline's moms, Mayor Mulva and Sheriff Liz are quite milf-y! (Heh, its interesting HRG play's Caroline's dad, whereas on Secret Circle, HRG's wife plays Cassie's GRANDMA)
But yeah, speaking of the Circle girls, I figured people consider Faye (Phoebe Tonkin) the hottest, because she's got the sexy bad-girl thing going on, along with the weird possibly lesbianic vibe she has with Melissa (Jessica Parker Kennedy, aka Plastique/girl who tries to give JGL a sympathy bone on 50/50). But my favorite is actually Diana (Shelly Hennig). She's pretty cute, and even though she dresses all prim and proper, she has a nice frickin' body under there. Of course, I've always liked Cassie (Britt Robertson), which is whom I would think people would think is my favorite, because she's JB looking. But like I said, Diana has a slight edge over the rest of the girls.
