red skies at night

So, after sewing ALL THE THINGS and writing for both ficathons, turkey day and Teslacon, I finally have been catching up on tvs. Will have, probably, multiple posts about stuff over the next few days.

But. Is anyone else watching Primeval: New World? It's a bit like if Primeval and Eureka had a baby and let Torchwood baby-sit. It is amazingly bad and yet highly entertaining. I, of course, love it. and will probably end up writing all the femslash. THREE MAIN FEMALE CHARACTERS. Some of whom even talk to each other, I feel sort of discombobulated, and am five episodes in and none of them have died..

So, yes. I am caught up on Elementary, Haven, Person of Interest, and Beauty and the Beast. Still have yet to manage the rest of Saving Hope, and Covert Affairs was taken off on demand, so I'm probably going to have to wait for dvds (last time I watched on USA's site, it skipped horribly).

Oh, and Leverage. I'm caught up on that, too.

I just heard that P:NW stars Niall Matter and Sara Canning! And that Jodi Balfour is a guest star! So I guess I know what I'll be watching this week :)

She is, and she is amazing, and spoilers? Also, the show is so bad, and yet so entertaining, I just. idek.

Spoil away, as I'm likely not going to watch until the weekend.

Let us hope this spoiler thing works. So, er, they kill her off in her second episode in order to give one of the dudes angst. And it is TOTALLY a fridging, but it is WAY HARDER to complain about that when the show has THREE OTHER women on it with significant roles (even if Toby was missing for the entirety of episode six, and what was UP with that, idek.). So. That isn't the best thing ever, but it is PRIMEVAL and I was entirely surprised she survived her FIRST episode, so.

I'm only two behind on BatB. I don't watch all of those shows. Especially not Elementary, because CBS doesn't show up on our On Demand, nor does it show up on Hulu. WTF, CBS? Do you not want me to watch your shows? This is the twenty-first century! Most people don't watch things as they air these days.

Leverage, though. I'm kind of torn on it this season. Is it me, or has there been barely any Sophie? Except for the absolutely darling episode where she and Nate were in an old school caper comedy. I love Parker, but I'm not in this show for Parker.

I wonder if it's a Comcast thing? Although CBS shows up for us, we don't get Person of Interest on demand.

This season was lighter on Sophie, but Rogers keeps saying we'll get more of her in the back half. idk.

I actually have Wowway; they're pretty limited on their On Demand. My mom's Comcast gets about ten times more shows and episodes of those shows.

Well. The last ep had more Sophie, but Parker finished the con on what should've been Sophie's grift. It was weird. So, yeah, idk either.

I didn't even know the new Primeval was airing, or that it had Sara Canning in it. May I ask what channel it airs on? I thought I recalled something about it airing the channel formerly known as SciFi? But apparently not.

Thanks

It is airing on Space. Or so says the, ah, logo on my version.

*raises hand* I'm watching PNW. And am utterly befuddled by it, because of recent events. I...want to both smack it upside the head and love it to pieces, for bits in the same. ep. I just.

AHAHAHAHAH. The thing is, I was expecting the thing (and I should make a post where I can be spoilery or something), because Primeval, so.

But yes, it may be an objectively good show. I have no idea, I've stopped being able to tell good from bad.

Damn, I need to start watching Elementary. Have to go find first episodes...
