random tv/book catch-up
1. The Secret History of Moscow - I'm enjoying this, but taking my time, as I feel as though I'll be left with nothing else to read if I finish it.
2. Nextwave: Agents of HATE volume 2: I Kick Your Face HOLY GOD WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE? ahem. ok, so it's not that earth-shattering, but it is still terribly hilarious. And wrong at times. It also has a mental soundtrack composed of Venture Bros/Cowboy Bebop tunes. (I might also ship Elsa/Tabitha/Monica in a quasi-we-don't-do-relationships way
3. La Femme Nikita. I'm really hoping this show stops being uninteresting and, um, pointless soon. Also, I'm not sure I can suffer Nikita's horrible bangs for much longer. (I managed the pilot and the second episode, but the third episode was eye-rollingly meh and I stopped in the middle) It would help, I expect, if I liked any of the characters.
4. Defying Gravity. I was holding off until I had all of the discs. Smart move, on my part. I've ripped through nine episodes so far. I really, really like it. Women! They talk to each other and have impact on the plot! I love the shifting back and forth between training and the missions, and even some of the set design. And I'm such a sucker for team-bonding and silliness, and this pretty much hits all of those kinks at well.also, the femslash, it writes itself
5. Pretty Little Liars. You know, I keep seeing people complaining about how Glee treated the lesbian sub-plot, and here's PLL quietly meandering on with its own lesbians (bi-racial lesbians, one of whom could easily be bi as well) and no one's watching it. I find that hilarious, but unsurprising. Emily's family is painful, but well-written. If only Ezra would get hit by a bus. (this show fills me with such gleeeee. =D)
