time and relative dimension in space

Which TV shows did you start watching in 2012?
New shows:
Smash
Alcatraz
Dirk Gently
Bunheads
Continuum
Political Animals
Elementary

Old shows that I just started watching this year:
Outland
Slings & Arrows
Father Ted
Party Animals
Dance Academy
The Tick
Being Human (US)
United States Of Tara

Which TV shows did you let go of in 2012?
Alcatraz, which completely failed to capture me; I should probably also admit that I've let go of Merlin now, given that I haven't watched this season at all.

Which TV shows did you mean to get into but didn't in 2012? Why?
Nashville, which I just ... never got around to? I still might get to it eventually, IDK. On the "old shows I haven't watched yet", there's also everything on my Shows I Should Watch list. :x

Which TV shows do you intend on checking out in 2013?
I have no clue what new shows are coming out next season, sorry.

Which TV show impressed you least in 2012?
Alcatraz, which, as mentioned, I really wanted to like and just couldn't get into at all. I was also continually disappointed by how both Bunheads and Smash failed to live up to their potential, and hope they improve in the future.

Which TV show did you enjoy the most in 2012?
Of new shows: Probably Continuum, which was just spectacular and should be watched by everyone. Elementary is a (somewhat distant, admittedly) runner-up; I really enjoy the chemistry between Liu and Miller.
Of old shows I watched for the first time: Slings & Arrows, which is flawless and I should have watched it much sooner.
Of old shows I continued to watch: Once Upon A Time had a great first season which it has actually improved on in the second season; ditto Alphas. Red Dwarf hasn't lost any of its magic.

In honor of All Hallow's Eve, I'm inviting trick-or-treaters to my 'door.' Comment "Trick or Treat" to this post and... well, you know the drill. Treats can be anything that strikes my fancy (pics of your fave actors or pairings, one sentence fics, graphics, a few words why I'm glad to have you on my flist, etc. etc.). The more "houses" to visit the more fun it'll be, so go ahead, open your journal and help spread the fun!

I'm running a test to see who's reading my posts. So, if you read this, leave me a one-word comment about your day that starts with the third letter of your LJ USERNAME. Only one word please. Then repost so I can leave a word for you. Don't just post a word and not copy - that's not as much fun.

From riviyan_questa

This morning I got Unexpected!Rew which was awesome. He and his fiancée are driving up from Florida to Maine and decided to make a stop in Williamsburg to see me. YAY. :D I had to work, so we went out to breakfast beforehand and then they dropped me off at the park. I wish I got to spend more time with them. They said they might be able to drop by and see me again on their way back nearer the end of the summer.

It's looking like starting next week they're going to switch my regular days off from Saturday/Sunday to Wednesday/Saturday. On the one hand, having two days off in a row is nice; on the other hand, having the week broken down into two manageable chunks will also be nice. I think I'm okay with the switch, but we'll see how it actually plays out once I'm on that schedule.

On the grounds that I've missed, like, a month doing this meme, I'm just going to go ahead and do the last two at the same time. Under the cut to spare your flists.

( 30 days of musical theater )

I...am exhausted. I am looking forward to when my schedule becomes predictable and I get into a groove. Or whatever.


26. Sung by the character in a musical you can most relate to.

"It Won't Be Long Now", In The Heights. Could be my theme song. One day, I'm hopping that elevated train and I'm riding away!
Alternately, "Where I Want To Be" from Chess, which I already used for this meme here.

( the full list )

Moved in. Not much more to say about it at this point, except that I'm exhausted and will probably go to bed early.


24. Which makes you laugh.

"We Are The Altar Boyz", Altar Boyz. This whole show is amazing and hilarious.
