Apparently, SGA fandom felt lonely.

1. Yesterday was SGA wank day on Fandom Secrets. anti-McShep, misogyny bingo Keller, some idiot raging on about Mary sue Carter, and angsty Carson fans... It was like Fandom Christmas! Though I think the special award goes to the person that claimed Het Shippers are the cause of all Ship Wars. (because Slash Shippers are such special snowflakes and would never dream of such a thing? idk)

2. In Plain Sight was on last night. I should have a reaction post about it, but my brains are still toasty.

3. We're up to... episode 11? On season two of Fringe. I'm... getting a little miffed about how Olivia's kind of not the focus anymore. Astrid still has too few lines (she is so awesome). I don't dislike Walter and Peter, but they're not who I watch the show for (ok, so I watch it for the crazy science and Olivia kicking ass).

4. Speaking of, someone once said that it was nice to see a show focus on a father-son relationship, as they're so very rare on TV. *sarcasm* Yeah, I can only think of half a dozen off the top of my head from recent TV shows.

5. Er, meanwhile, I wrote NCIS RPFS last night. Oops.

I keep forgetting that In Plain Sight is on Wednesdays now. Damn it.

And if Olivia is no longer the focus of Fringe, do I even want to watch season two? The Walter and Peter Show is kind of boring-sounding.

The Bishop family show is absolutely the most boring thing they do (even loving Walter as I do), but I'd argue that Olivia's still the main focus and gets most of of what character development there is. And there's nothing horrible or characer destroying about it at least, it's the secondary characters like Nina, Astrid, and Broyles that really lose screentime for it, especially later. The 2nd season's much more scattered overall and plotty, but at least they aren't outright replacing Olivia's storyline with the Bishops yet? *hopes*

What's really sad is that I liked the way the Bishops were background last season. But now? I wish they'd be shoved back into the corner again as I just don't CARE. sigh.

I'm...trying to convince myself it may not go anywhere horrible every week now, but yeah. Though Peter still needs to be saved a refreshing amount while Olivia doesn't, they also once LET HIM HAVE HER GUN.

They've given him her gun twice now. He shot through a broken windshield the first time and passed out in an elevator the second.

The elevator was the one I was thinking of.

To be fair, the first one at least made sense: Olivia hit the steering wheel, Peter didn't. (so did the second, in a way, it was just silly)

And the episode before 'Peter' and the newest episode were All About Olivia, which made me gleeful, so.

They moved it on us! Sigh. I only remembered because Leverage was on Wednesdays, so I was sort of expecting it.

I... it still has its moments? It might be one of those things where there's lots of ffwding, though it's not as bad as it could be. It's just... little things, like how Olivia used to save the day all the time and now... Peter gets to do that. :/

however, the most recent episode was All About Olivia. So was the episode before 'Peter' (and 'Peter' was all flashbacky and stuff). SO. The show might be getting better at it.
