This doesn't premiere until mid-June, but the pilot is available to watch early via TV Line. It's Amy-Sherman Palladino's new show, so you know, that is both a good thing and a bad thing.

Warning: There's a pretty major spoiler in this post -- major enough that if you're at all interested in watching the show that I don't think you should read this until you have.

So far I'm thinking my summer shows will be River Monsters (I looove that stupid show), SYTYCD, Bunheads, Newsroom (the new Aaron Sorkin show on HBO), Political Animals, and Royal Pains. Oh, and I'll catch up on S2 of The Killing once it's finished its run.

I want to talk about S1 of The Killing for a sec, actually.

Finally! My confirmation e-mail was so slow, I think it must have been actualfax delivered by an owl.

I don't know if I'll end up playing the full game (probably not), but I reallyreally wanted to be ~officially sorted~ by JKR's method since I've never really felt like I fit into any particular house. And lol, now I have been:



I still feel like this is a little bit wrong, to be honest. The traits I value the most are loyalty and intelligence. Even the better portrayals of Slytherins in the book featured a lot of self-interested, self-aggrandizing behavior that I don't like or relate to. I feel like I'm too idealistic to be a Slytherin! But I know I'm not a Hufflepuff. I was kind of relieved not to be a Ravenclaw because even though I got sorted there a lot in the meme that went around a year ago, I'm kind of urgh about academia and have always been a super lazy student. Also, I'd always be locked out of the common room if I had to answer a philosophical question to get into it, lbr. And while I'd love to be a Gryffindor since all of my faves from the book are Gryffindors, I'm not brave, and I think things through (read: overthink!) before I do them. So w/e, I guess maybe Slytherin is the best fit.

UGH, LIVEJOURNAL.

So. Look what is deleted and soon-to-be purged: caitie! Y/N? I sort of hate LiveJournal a lot lately, tho.

You guys, ugh, why was last night the Chris Brown Appreciation Grammys? People do realize that Rihanna was unable to perform at the Grammys three years ago because of what he did to her, right? I hate everything. And this is upsetting. I was sad Kanyesus skipped out, but they didn't present Best Rap Album and he was flagrantly snubbed for Album of the Year, so I can't really blame him. I was happy to watch Adele sweep everything, though.

I watched Smash, which was okayish but the cast is too white for a show set in NYC. I am super excited for this week's Revenge. S2 of Downton is about as blah as I heard. Mostly I just want Awake to air and The Good Wife to come back immediately.

This is a proper Gossip Girl post for 5x13 and 5x14, I guess.

Anyway. Bad news, guys, I learned to make gifs! It wasn't that hard, but it's pretty time consuming. I'm suddenly glad I accidentally managed to buy a computer without a DVD drive, otherwise I'd be addicted.
