I should watch this series again sometime...


EDIT: The thumbnail makes it out to be something, but I promise you, it's not what you're thinking :fear: .

I keep telling myself Pretty Little Liars doesn't make any sense, but I caught up with it by watching the six episodes of the latest season that's out so far. :|

Still need to catch up on Orphan Black. I have two more episodes left of the second season. I just don't enjoy it as much as the first.

Need to catch up on all of Orange Is the New Black's second season as well.

I was worried about that. I've only watched the first season so far, since that's all there is on Amazon Prime Instant Video, and while I was intrigued by the premise and the acting required to pull it off, the actual plotting from episode to episode often seemed contrived and a bit dull. It wasn't bad, but I'm not rushing to watch the second season.

It doesn't help that I recently read The Rook by Daniel O'Malley, which had many of the same plot points re: discovering and assuming the identity of a lookalike, and then consequently getting caught up in a conspiracy.

I think the best part has always been Tatiana Maslany's portrayal of all the clones, but by season 2 you're already used to it as part of the show. I feel that every single plot line has become less interesting.

Well, I'll see how I feel about the remaining episodes.

edit: The end of the season was a bit better, and I'll probably still keep up with it. Hopefully next season will be better though.

Finished the second season of Orange is the New Black. I liked the first season better, but I really liked how the second season ended. Rosa's story was one of my favorites from this season.

I started watching The Strain. I didn't know how to feel when I read it was gonna be like some kind of vampire thing, but it's different from what I was expecting.
First two episodes seemed a little slow, but I'm sure they'll probably get better, since that seems to be a trend with FX shows.

I'm recording WGN's Manhattan tomorrow night. I enjoyed Salem a lot, so hopefully their second series will be good. :lol:

I've thought about starting "The Strain", but I wasn't sure if it would be worth reading the books first or not, and after deciding I didn't care to I forgot about looking for it. :lol:

I decided to start watching The Vampire Diaries again today. I was halfway through season 2 years ago, but I stopped watching it because I didn't catch up with the episodes and suddenly I was too far behind to bother. I watched seven episodes so far today...

Also been watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I'm only on season 2.

It's difficult to marathon through multiple shows at once. :lol:

Buffy didn't really get good until Season 3. Season 1 was too much like the movie, in that it satirized the genre while not yet having a heart of its own, and Season 2 overdid it with the relationship melodrama.
