Thoughts on summer TV I'm watching:
Bunheads is not a particularly good show and it has plotholes you could fly a 747 through, but it's got Sutton Foster and ballet and I'm really shipping Boo/Sasha (at the very least Sasha has a massive crush on Boo and no idea how to deal with it), so I'm sticking with it. Also this week had They Might Be Giants and a dig at 50 Shades Of Grey, and those are never bad things.
Continuum continues to be fantastic and everyone should be watching it. The ways the writers use (and screw up!) Kiera's future tech is fascinating. Alec is one of my favorite TV geniuses. And I cannot say enough about how much I love the moral greyness of this show. Everyone is of questionable morality, the 'bad guys' are mostly bad due to their methods but they got there in understandable ways and the 'good guys' also used morally dubious methods and UGH I LOVE IT SO MUCH. IT SHOULD BE PICKED UP BY A NETWORK IN EVERY COUNTRY AND WATCHED BY EVERYONE.
Political Animals I am mainly watching Because Sigourney Weaver And Sebastian Stan. That's not a complaint. TJ sometimes gets very close to Prince Jack for me, but Sebastian Stan does it so well I still can't complain.
Alphas is back! My relationship to this show is kind of weird for me because I basically forgot it existed while it was on hiatus and then it came back and I suddenly remembered how much I love it. I have some minor issues with the reset button being played so quickly, but whatever I still love it dearly. Especially the hug scene at the end of the episode. That scene right there encapsulated pretty much everything I love about this show.
