some tv I have been watching

[such_heights]

Here lies happy flailing, basically.

Legend of the Seeker! Some of you may have seen a post I had up for a few hours earlier today reacting to Nicci's backstory - I took it down because it was reactionary and poorly-formed, but I may come back to the issue later when I can make a bit more sense. So, leaving that aside - OMG CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH CARA LOVES KAHLAN! alskdja;s <3 <3 <3 :D

Ahem. Okay, that was also reactionary and poorly-formed, but this time in the squee camp! God, I love the 'trapped with limited air' story trope far more than is right or reasonable, and this was just perfect. Cara said I love you I consider you a friend! N'aww! And there was hugging and hand-holding and it was all very delightful. And, er, beating each other up out of a desire to sacrifice themselves for each other. :D

Farscape! ZHAAAAAN. :( I knew it was coming, but ouch all the same. In general, this show hurts so good, wow. I really don't have much to say apart from things like Aeryn > the universe, I love Chiana and D'Argo and Pilot so hard, and Crichton's space dementia is both boggling and awesome.

*draws hearts*

Buffy! My viewing experience of Buffy continues to be entirely non-chronological and weird, but I continue to enjoy, even though I think that I am glad for several reasons that I wasn't a fan when it was on air.

I did have one question, though, after watching the scene in 4x20 with Tara and Willow and a KITTEN OMG, namely how on earth was any more adorable left to go around? Then I realised that that scene can probably be used to generate all of the rest of the adorable ever, and thus my question was answered.

(WILLOW AND TARA AND A KITTEN OMG. *goes boom!*)

you're watching out of order? (buffy) OMG i want to say so many things to you about it, but i don't want to spoil you!
i am currently in the middle of season 5 of my epic buffy rewatch

[such_heights]

Oh, I am spoiled for pretty much every major plotline - I've watched most of the season finales, for instance. On this particular occasion I am watching episodes for vid purposes and filling in some more blanks.

[kel_reiley]

OH OK! well, then don't get attached to miss kitty fantastico :(

[sdwolfpup]

Are you watching Farscape for the first time? I don't want to spoil you! But, yeah, Zhaan. OW. *sniff*

[such_heights]

This is indeed my first runthrough! Oh, Zhaan - even Rygel's reaction made me sad, sigh.

[lefaym]

I"ve been meaning to watch Legend of the Seeker for ages! I must get around to that.

I'm also watching Farscape at the moment, and I'm up to about the same place as you. I actually watched up to this point a number of years ago, but I stopped after Zahn died, even though I understand that they had to do it becasue the makeup was making Virigina Hey ill. :( Anyway, I'm going to keep watching through this time -- looking forward to seeing MOAR AWESOME from Aeryn. :D

[aoftheis]

Hee, Buffy! My experience with it was also very non-chronological -- basically my sister mainlined it one summer and I'd watch it whenever I was in the living room at the time. (I often found myself walking through the living room to the kitchen to get something, and then being drawn in and not leaving till an episode finished. :D)

Am currently finishing S2, so tell me if you watch anything thereabouts!

[ontology]

Eeee, but what about in "Family" when there is Willow and Tara and a kitten and Tara telling Willow a bedtime story? And in 5x09 (I think) when Willow and Tara are star-watching and Tara makes up her own constellations?

STILL CATCHING UP ON LEGEND OF THE SEEKER ACK. Seriously, though, Cara makes everything ever 5x more fantastic. She barely had anything to do in "Creator", and yet every single line she had was golden, I don't even know. Her snark was extra snarky, and her head-tilts were... extra tilty? I WANT TO HUG HER SO MUCH. But then she would probably try to strangle me, so.

...also Farscape is for meee when I finish Veronica Mars and catching up on everything else WHY IS TELEVISION NOW A SCHEDULE WHAT HAPPENED TO BABY ME WHO HAD NO TELEVISION AT ALL
