Going through my past post, I realized it has been a while since I watched any good TV show. This past year, my life had been consumed by reality TV shows instead, and honestly, I do not even know why. These shows are clearly scripted and created to bring chaos and drama. It is most likely this drama that is very addictive to me. After all, what is a better way to escape my own problems and thoughts than by watching someone else complicating their life for no reason?

Well, hopefully, 2024 will bring some interesting TV series into my life and allow me to find relief in other hobbies other than scrutinizing someone else's life through TV lenses.

It's 2021 and I just discovered Ripper Street. I loved season 1, loved season 2, but oh my...season 3, what have you done? Susan, what have you done? I am not going to lie...I have many triggers, many reasons for anxiety in this world, but nothing triggers me as much as seeing someone harmless, someone kind and simple being bullied, hurt and eventually killed. The episode in which Horace Buckley simply becomes a casualty in someone's intrigue and manipulation shook me to the core. That poor man was so simple that he did not understand until the very end what was happening to him. He tried to speak, tried to explain, but was not listened to. It was convenient for Susan to let him die and once he was dead and even after the truth was revealed, his death was brushed off as a mistake/ misunderstanding of circumstances. I am so upset with the direction this story took that I am not sure I want to continue with the series anymore. There is so much cruelty in real life, so many people taking advantage of those who can hardly fight back that I am not sure I want to watch the TV show that once used to be my escape.

I came across Dash & Lily today, and I cannot emphasise how much I enjoyed watching that TV Show.

I recently started a romance, too. I do not know him personally. We never met. We both live in different cities and communicate only through letters and messages. We connected and I feel like I found my soulmate. I feel like Dash when he first learned Lily's name, I feel like Lily when she went to her first party and allowed herself to be wild and free. I feel like both of them when they understood for the first time how much they have in common despite being different.

For the first time in my life it warmed my heart to realise that not only I watch the magic unfold, but I actually live it.

I thought I could not like Michael Douglas more than I already did but then I watched The Kominsky Method and learned I was wrong. Guys, do yourself a favor and go watch it! The acting is so real it does not even feel like acting and geez, I LOVE ELDERLY PEOPLE (sorry, Michael).

It is not a secret I love TV series with strong male characters, and I do not necessarily mean physically strong. I mean the male characters that can show their emotions, cry when they feel it, understand what is different, be understanding when others are not, surprise you when you already think there is nothing what could surprise you anymore. The characters that might appear to be ruthless, but one finds out it is just a pretense. There is a number of characters that melted my heart: Fabien Marchal from Versailles, Tommy from Peaky Blinders or Athos from the Musketeers but my heart won Detective Inspector Jack Robinson from Miss Fisher Murder Mysteries. He is everything I always imagined in a man - kind, understanding, feminist...what reminds me of the quote I recently read at The Sense of an Ending: "This was another of our fears: that Life wouldn't turn out to be like Literature.” in this case...fear that life would not quite turn out to be as a TV show...

Some thoughts on Versailles s02ep06

It saddens me that character who was always ready and committed to help others, and who was able to save so many lives was not able yo save herself...

Me and my obsession with TV shows *sigh*. Always finding new ships...how can someone ship Fabiėn and Sophie when there is Claudine? The fate of this ship still breaks my heart (perhaps I should really start doing something about my obsessions...)

Where is Morgan to my Garcia? Still waiting for that friendship that will make people uncomfortable and question our sanity.

I want commitment as Tommy promises it. To call me on his gangster meetings and when I tell him I am not his family, he tells me: this could change. And even though i hurt his feelings really bad he will still want to be with me

I am so done...

Ok, after hearing all these spoilers about Milathos in S3, I am done. I am done with the Musketeers. I will not be able to watch it anymore, it would break my heart... 

[katulik91]

While browsing internet I came across this: “In many ways, Milady’s journey feels like it comes to a natural end here - she’s found redemption, but is denied total happiness.” I need to say that such ’conclusion’ makes sense but I still hope Milady´s journey is not over. The Musketeers´ season 3 would not be the same without her..

Feeling devastated after watching the final episodes of the Musketeers! Shipping of two tv characters has never been so real for me than it is in case of Athos and Milady! #themusketeers #athos #milady
