Pity poor, deluded, fannish me
Apr. 3rd, 2013 01:32 pm( Cut for personal ramblings )
I've been dragged unwillingly into the fringes of Teen Wolf fandom. To the extent that I just pre-ordered the season 2 DVDs because I misread the library listing and thought I'd ordered season 2 when I'd actually reordered season 1. Oops.
And I may possibly have ordered season 1 from Amazon as well *headdesk*
It falls firmly in the "so bad it's good" category and I have a sad and terrible addiction to that kind of thing. Also, there is some pretty damn fabulous fic out there and I should feel guilty for watching a show just for the fic but I totally don't :-D
Thankfully, I have no desire to *write* fic for it so that's a relief.
I'm also starting to work my way through Supernatural via the library. This is one I don't feel fannish about at all, but I've been assured that season one is the weakest and I'm only meh rather than disliking it so I'm going to stick with it until at least season two.
At some stage in the next six months, I'll also have the Person of Interest DVDs in my hands thanks to the library. That's a looooong hold list.
You know what I really need to do, though? I really, really need to watch some of the shows building up on my PVR. I keep sitting upstairs with my book stack and my Kindle of fic rather than watching stuff downstairs in the evenings, so I'm getting horribly behind. Tomorrow night and Friday will need to be PVR-catchup marathons, I feel.
And next year, I may be breaking up with one or two shows so that I don't end up with so many backlogs because I'm too 'meh' to watch them. Bones is on the shaky list, as is Gray's Anatomy. NCIS, CSI:NY and Arrow are probably keepers because I'm actually watching them within a week or two of broadcast. Except Arrow, but that's because I tend to save up several and then watch them all in a glory of Arrow-ish wallowing.
Actually, I need to check my settings for Arrow again. I should have four episodes saved up but I have a nasty feeling that there's only one on the PVR, which means something may have gone wrong with that setting. AGAIN. There's a new episode tonight and if I don't have a five episode marathon waiting for me tomorrow, I may be upset.
*kicks cable box*
I've also got to do some serious Holby catch up because I'm weeks behind and I need to finish Call the Midwife. How did I just have a four day weekend without actually watching *any* of my backlogged shows?
