Hiatuses, cancellations, and new stuff!

So, there hasn't been anything new on this blog in a little while. Reasons include:
I've also been watching The Following, aka the last cult conspiracy show standing. It's getting quite interesting, but the characters continue to do more and more stupid things. I want to start a drinking game based on how often Kevin Bacon goes into a building where a serial killer is without backup. There may or may not be a post on the compiled stupidity of the first season.

The pilot of Defiance aired this weekend, and it's a kind of last-remaining-human-outpost show that feels like Falling Skies meets Outcasts. So far, I think I kind of like it.

Tried watching the first two episodes of Hannibal. I found it deeply weird. Deeply, deeply weird and kind of fucked up. Like, the creepiest episodes of the early years of X-Files weird and fucked up.

And my roommate has gotten us both addicted to Alias. Some of the stuff is a blast from the past and is so late 90's/early 00's it's ridiculous. And there's a young Bradley Cooper in it!

Best of all, I have 20 episodes of Ancient Aliens queued up on my DVR. My "Best Of" selection of some of the episode titles includes:
  • Aliens and the Secret Code (sounds like Nancy Drew)
  • Aliens and the Third Reich (yep, Nazis again!)
  • Aliens and the Undead (zombies are popular, too)
  • Aliens and Bigfoot (sounds like X-Files)
  • Aliens and Dinosaurs (There was a Doctor Who episode or three like this)
  • Aliens and Cover-Ups (Conpsiracy theories exist to cover up the real conspiracies!)
  • Destination Orion (We already know that all alien things lead to Orion)
So, yeah. New stuff soon!
