Longmire: I'm still uncertain whether or not I like this show. I like the cast. I like the setting. I like the fact that Native Americans are included on the show even though I'm uncertain about their portrayal. I *hate* the fact that even though it has Katee Sackhoff [Starbuck] and Cassidy Freeman [Mercy from Smallville] that in four episodes it still doesn't pass the Bechdel test. Please god, give me some interaction between these two 'cause I've got 6000 words of smut just waiting to hit the page, if only I had something to base it on.
What I do love is the relationship between the two male leads [Walt and Henry (Lou Diamond Phillips)] is so slashy I can't stand it. If I had any interest in writing Western themed anything I would have pounded out 50k words of how they fell in love while Walt's wife was sick and that they torture themselves by never having given in to their feelings. Due to a) wife, b) internalized homophobia c) they don't really understand that they are *in love* and not just friends. The fic would also tell the story of how Vic and Cady *are* in a relationship together and hide it from the world.
So I guess that means I like the show? And yet, I don't think I do. I like its potential, I'll get back to you on that.
Suits: I want Mike to grow up. I can't express how strongly I want that. I want Jessica to feel like Harvey has her back and that the two of them can do anything. I want Donna to continue allowing Louis to persuade into exchanging information for fabulous tickets that turn into dates that lead to Louis worshipping Donna, and Donna allowing him. I want Rachel to get some consistency to her character. I want to live in Harvey's condo
Teen Wolf: HOLY GOD. Has anyone ever seen a douchier pack of werewolves in the history of ever? My DVR cut out on the last minute or so, I'd love it if someone could tell me what happens after ( Read more... ) I want there to be communication between Stiles, Lydia, Allison, and Scott. The four of them have the potential to be an incredible team but THEY HAVE GOT TO INFORM LYDIA WHAT IS GOING ON. You know who else needs to be told something? Allison -- Scott has got to tell her what Grandpa Tigh did. ALL the lines of communication need to open on that show. I get so frustrated with media when the primary way they add drama is to stop characters from sharing information. That is SO lame and lazy.
Why don't I have icons? Where are the Teen Wolf icons? As much eye-candy as is on that show there be hundreds if not thousands of icons to sort through, help a girl out, please?
Bunheads: Is anyone watching this? I can't get past the completely inappropriate constant brain dump of the main character. I'm told this is how Gilmore Girls was? It. Drives. Me. Nuts. I don't find it charming at all. Other than that, it's a solid show, it almost fills the Make it or Break it void
Breaking Point: Not nearly as fun as I wanted it to be, could there be more dancing PLEASE and less weird relationship between that one couple. They are seriously unhealthily co-dependent it hurts to watch. I also feel like they're pandering to the audience by having the dancer, particularly female dancers, talk about how much they eat all the time.
Finally, there's a show coming up on on USA sometime in July called Political Animals with Sigourney Weaver and it looks AMAZING.
