Words, Words, Words.

I signed up for a free month of Netflix, primarily so I could marathon the new season of Arrested Development. Naturally, I found myself also marathoning other things I've been wanting to see as well.

Sherlock was definitely one of the good ones. I like the direct references that are made to the original ACD stories and novels, while maintaining the series' unique style and storylines. I've also found some fanfic that has interested me after the fact (though I admit that this will probably be one of those "reading fandoms" and not a "writing one" for me).

As I've been shuffling through FF.N, AO3, as well as a number of rec-lists that I've found, I've noticed a trend in some of the post-Reichenbach fics that I've recently read. For as well-written as some of the stories have been, this particular trend has been a little off-putting. ( And that is... )

Just my opinion, though.

I know many of my flist members were into this series when it was airing, though I don't recall who. If anyone has some good stories to recommend, I'd certainly be willing to give them a look!

The trailer for the 4th season of Arrested Development is up! Can't wait!

I know many others on my flist are already familiar with the books. I, on the other hand, haven't read them yet because I haven't really wanted to know what's coming on the show.

( Which means... )

I'm sick, and it's a school night. Two reasons that I should have gone to bed early and DVRed the premiere of Awake. But I've waited so long to see it and, frankly, once shows are banished to DVR-Limbo . . .

Well, let's just say I've got quite a few programs sitting around for quite a while.

In the end, though, I was glad I stayed up. It was sort of worth the extra hour that I'll be lacking in sleep tomorrow. It was definitely the kind of show that you really have to pay attention every minute, but so far I really like it.

Please, let this be true! Please, please, please!

(ETA: Now with spoilers in the comments.)

Normally I don't comment on True Blood, ( but I just had to mention this: )

"No Ordinary Family" was actually pretty awesome! :)
