tv ramblings and other stuff
Oct. 18th, 2015 11:32 pmFinally watched the premiere of American Horror Story: Hotel and I was...underwhelmed. I don't think 90 minute was necessary, or at least they didn't make good use of their time because I did spend a good portion of the episode wondering how much longer until it was over. This already feels a lot like Asylum to me; too much going on, not enough focus on plot, too much focus on being "edgy" (and by edgy I mean disgusting)
I had seen this article while browsing online but had not read it, but as soon as I saw the episode, I knew exactly which scene the writer was going to talk about. After the Hannibal-like murder scene, the audience was warned that something awful would happen and to have this creature raping someone with a silver unicorn horn dildo...I just...that's not horror to me. That's just being disgusting.
I'll give it a few more episodes. I feel like maybe I should just skip every other episode...except Wes Bentley is so nice to look at...maybe I'll just watch until something bad happens to him.
Also finished Broadchurch Season 2 and OMG WHAT A SHOW!!!!! I doubted they could even do a second season but it blew me away. I can't decide if I want a Season 3 or not...I'm worried they will eventually take it all too far. Plus, I sort of want everyone to get on with their lives now.
Caught up on iZombie tonight, which is off to an okay start.
I am SO glad that Liv is not hiding her zombie-ness anymore. Though I am still annoyed that the show still seems to be about her eating brains and acting weird. Major's storyline (well, him taking the Utopia) makes me think of Reilly in Season 5 of Buffy...which doesn't bode well for Major.
Apparently, tomorrow the new Star Wars trailer is going to air during the football game. My geeky Star Wars friends are already complaining about having to watch some random game LOL. Alas, I'll wait until it is up on YouTube...or maybe I will avoid it and stay totally spoiler free. (Like that is possible, the poster came out today and it was on in my Facebook feed about 10 times, sheesh!)
And for those of you that don't watch TV, here is my magical wedding band that glows in the DARK! I know you are impressed!
