we're bobbing along in our barrel

So I've finished rereading the first two Harry Potter books, and I've just rewatched the movies. And yelled at the tv a lot because they mess things up and it's annoying. I'm halfway through the third book, which is one of my favorites. Because... I love Sirius Black. He is my lover. He just isn't aware, because he's a fictional character and also 'cause, well... he's dead. :( BUT STILL. We are in love, and he's hot. Not Gary Oldman, but actually hot like a younger Trent Reznor.

Anyway, Harry Potter just brings out the fangirl in me. I started watching the third movie, but only watched until I was at the part where I haven't finished in the book. And I squealed because the difference of the appearance of the actors in the second to third movie is insane. Malfoy gets hot. Flitwick and Dumbledore get replaced. (I liked the original Dumbledore, I was really sad when he died.) And they decided that men in their thirties should look like they're fifty. (*cough Lupin Sirius cough*)

I finished my latest television adventure - Wonderfalls. It was an interesting tv show, definitely. My favorite part about it was the wax lion. Everything else that talked was okay, but the wax lion had some attitude. I wish I had him, I'd keep him on my shelf and show him off and be like, "this is my smooshed face wax lion and he tells me to do things"

I hate when I go into watching a show, knowing it only lasted one or two seasons, because I know I'm going to like it but I don't want to, because as soon as I start to like it... it'll be over.

Apparently I'm supposed to watch Smallville. If I had actual readers, I would ask for an opinion on the show. No one reads this, though. Yay.

Also, Torchwood: Miracle Day. A-mazing. The previews for the next episode look insane and awesome. I also can't help but cringe every time I think of the suicide bomber and him still being alive even though he's all charred up, and the most recent episode with the woman in the crushed car. Their lives suck.

It irritates me a little, and I hope it's explained later, but how is it that when JACK died before, he regenerated and was okay in a few hours. When everyone else dies, they just get all charred up and stay that way. Shouldn't they be healing if their roles were simply switched with Jack? Oh, and I have a lesbian crush on Gwen. Can't help it, she's much more bad assier this season.

I started watching Rizzoli and Isles, thinking that I was going to see some cute cop lesbian stuff, but it's most just subtext. Are they going to come out any time soon, or is this just going to be a running thing?

Catching up on Dexter before the new season starts - I love how Showtime replays the entire series before the new season starts up. I missed season five, so this is awesome. Also - the Big C? Definite love there. The first thing I saw of that show was the season one finale final scene, which completely broke my heart and I knew nothing about the characters. Laura Linney is kind of amazing.

Apparently I also need to check out Weeds. I might do this before I consider Smallville, seeing how Weeds is on Showtime and every showtime series that I've watched I've loved, I'll probably like it more. I heard that United States of Tara was canceled. Is that true? Because I haven't seen season three yet, but the first two seasons were AWESOME. Oh, and Nurse Jackie. I've seen the first two seasons of that, can't wait to watch the rest. LOVE Zoey.

Yep. Can't wait for this fall when all of the other shows come back on. Can't wait until January when SHAMELESS returns for it's second season. Hope it can live up to it's amazing first season (yes I'm aware of the BBC show, have seen a few episodes, prefer William H Macy, sorry).

Well, goodnight.

Wonderfalls theme song is stuck in my head.
