Thoughts on Stuff and a Meme.
Sep. 22nd, 2011 03:33 pmTV Stuff:
So the new TV seasons are starting off quite well on the shows I watch. H50 was fun (as long as I gloss over one part) and flirty. "NCIS" and "NCIS:LA" were both solid openings for the season.
I have a few other shows to catch up on and thanks to
xanthelj and others, it looks like I'll be giving "Suits" a try. Yeah, cuz I really needed something else to watch and fangirl over. *sigh*
Comics Stuff:
The new "Nightwing" came out this week. Without getting too much into the spoilery stuff, it was a great relaunch for someone who is a Nightwing/Dick Grayson fan. It was just enough info to intro a new reader, but it didn't feel like a re-hash. Plus Dick looks great in the new costume. :)
"Wonder Woman" looks like it's going to be interesting given the intro. I know that most folks are raving about it so far. I enjoyed it, but I'm not quite at the OMGLUV stage yet.
I still have "Supergirl", "Green Lantern Corps" and "Batman" to read for this week.
I will definitely be skipping "Catwoman" and "Red Hood and the Outsiders". Just hearing about them made me feel skeevy.
While I find the talking heads of DC more than a little problematic when it comes to their audience (especially those of us who are female), but I'm happy that there are at least a couple of good books coming out of this. I have a hard time punishing the individual writers for their bosses being tools. (Note: this is strictly my personal philosophy on this and not a judgement in any way on anyone else's reactions.)
Meme Stuff:
To help me get rolling on writing again, I thought I'd do a mini-meme so that I could rope y'all into helping. :)
Give me a character from one of the fandoms you've heard me ramble about or is in my interests list and I will tell you:
1) My personal canon for that character.
2) A summary of a fic I'd love to see about that character.
3) The storyline that I always wanted to see in canon with that character.
And for fun:
Give me 3 characters from any of my fandoms and I'll tell you who I'd Shag, Marry and Cliff
