Watching a mix of Classic Doctor Who and Battlestar Galactica with a bit of Star Trek thrown in.

I have moods that change rather swiftly.

Wow, I have moods that change rather swiftly, too.  Except they deal mostly with video games.

On-topic...

I've been watching Penguins of Madagascar lately.  In my opinion, best animated series of the modern age.  Jokes are genuinely laugh-out-loud funny, characters are easily identifiable, voices are pretty good (especially for the replacements) and of course the fact that they get so much shit past the censors.

Like, who the hell approved Mort's foot fetish?  Because I want to slap them for letting something blatant through, then hug them for the same reason XD

Also, music is great.  Seriously.  Especially The Return of the Revenge of Dr. Blowhole, known also as "Dr. Horrible as a dolphin gets to sing in a musical episode."

Sadly, Nick seems to be running a specific set of reruns and I have no idea when they'll be showing episodes outside of this current cycle.  It's frustrating because I've basically got no new material to watch for awhile, and I don't feel like pirating the episodes that aren't showing.

Been watching reruns of Bones lately.  That's a show I never could catch in the past, and now I can.  It's not bad.   Though I don't think it'd surprise anyone here that I identify with Seely Booth more than Temperance Brennan, even if I do really like teh SCIENCE!

Finally got around to see the last episode of Orange is the New Black. It was obvious that those two characters were going to have a conflict. I just didn't expect it to go the way it did.

I'm really happy that last season of the American version of Wilfred is now on Netflix. Such a great show.

We've been watching a lot of Lexx on Amazon Prime lately... I'm all over it!

I finished Classic Who.

Now I just gotta work on BSG and TOS. I hope to watch OITNB at some point as well as GoT.

People don't believe me when I say I watch Lexx for the storyline (which, yes, I actually do/did.)

All of classic Who?  (Other than the missing eps, of course.)
Very admirable achievement. :)

What was on Netflix. I'm gonna have to track down what Netflix didn't have available cause I'm like 98% sure they don't have all of the episodes that aren't missing in the ether.

I really enjoyed the fourth and fifth doctors. I wasn't too crazy about the sixth. The seventh doctor I was okay with. I really liked his companion, Ace.  Doctors 1-3 were all right but I feel like there were a lot of references to things that were at the time current that I didn't understand cause I didn't live during that time. The first I didn't see much of (obviously), the second was rather puckish and the third did manage to amuse me on more than one occasion.

Also to me it seems like that the sonic screwdriver got weaker with each regeneration. But that could be a continuity issue.

I dunno... Seems like it's pretty powerful now... The Sonic, I mean.  What can't it do?  You know, I think it'd be a good idea to lose it again like in the 5th Doctor's run. 

Glad you like 4 and 5.  They're my faves of classic Who too. :)

It doesn't do wood? Also it did cause a spark that caused a fire in the Classic Who but I'm not sure it could happen again in the new Who. Though of course it could all just be down to choice for each Doctor as to how much they rely on their screwdriver.

Also, 10 lost his screwdriver. Kinda. It had to be replaced by another of the same model. Ditto with 11's apparently.

I've been meaning to catch up with Futurama, Venture Brothers, & now I see that Code Lyoko has a sequel series, so I plan to check that out.

In the meantime, I'm watching Digimon Adventure, Digimon Tamers, & Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Legend of Korra when it comes back in September.

I've also recently thought of checking out Game of Thrones, but I'm clearly currently too busy being a manchild.

Buffy rocks.  Angel too.  Damn I wish I'd not had to sell those box sets of both complete series.   Gah... Must... buy them back... soon.

You're only a manchild if you talk about how the shows are clearly meant for adult men and that well-written plots don't belong in little girl shows.
