ghanimasun answered your question “Don’t suppose anyone has any recs for any new-ish good escapist tv...”
I was gonna rec The Good Place, but then I realized you've probably already watched that because of a certain person :)
Hehe yeah, a couple of times now - I’d watch it again but I need new stuff to keep my brain occupied. If only there was an Erase button in the brain so you could legit rewatch things! Whoever invents that is gonna be a zillionaire.
ghanimasun replied to your post “I made a post on reddit (yep I’m that desperate now) about wanting to...”
there are some okay people on reddit. sometimes it might help to read their comment histories so you can see if you feel comfortalbe with them. i wish you luck tho. i know how hard it is to befriend people online!
Yeah I figure there has to be a few, it just has kind of a shady rep. And that’s a good idea, I’ll give that a try. :) Thanks!
top 5 fictional characters that you were introduced to (personally, not that necessarily were only aired) in 2015
1. Princess Isabella from Galavant
2. The woefully underused Opal Edwards from The Knick
3. Finn and Rey from Star War: The Force Awakens
4. Steven Universe
5. Mr. Quinland from The Strain trilogy
5, 10, 14
5. Queens/Empresses/Royalty
Princess Isabella of Valencia from Galavant. Beautiful singer (listen to that vibrato on “who knew he came from such a looooovely home” during “Oy! What a Knight!”), improv enthusiast, smol, Gryffinclaw, invisibly disabled Valencian bb. What’s not to love?
Guinevere from Merlin. Angel Coulby brought so much character development to a character who was shafted so much by the writers. Her final scene cements a radical reinterpretation of Arthurian myth that decenters white male destiny.
Regina Mills from Once Upon a Time. My problematic fave.
Princess Leia Organa from Star Wars. She’s incredibly resourceful. She assesses what resources are available to her and puts them to work. And eventually marries some of them.
Fastrada from Pippin. She has the best villain song in musical theatre.
10. That I'd want to kiss
Princess Isabella of Valencia from Galavant. Why else would I have analyzed even her tiniest singing parts?
Delores van Cartier (as played by Patina Miller) from Sister Act: The Musical. I relate to “The Live I’ve Never Led” for many reasons, the most relevant being that if I was an initiate, I would also want to run away from the church to be with Delores.
The Leading Player (as played by Patina Miller) Pippin. Diddly-dee.
Mirror Ezri from Star Trek: DS9. So smol, so nineties.
Odette from Swan Lake. I just don’t want her to be sad.
14. I wish had a better love interest(s)
Ezri Dax from Star Trek: DS9. I like Julian, but he needs to stay the fuck away from Dax symbionts and disabled women.
Jenny Mills from Sleepy Hollow. Every white dude character called “Han Solo-like” by his creator is a bad idea. Hawley added nothing to Jenny’s life or the show.
Tara Thornton from True Blood. She deserved a better everything, but her love interests were particularly injurious to her.
Nora Martinez from The Strain. Eph is a total jerk and doesn’t care about her feelings at all. I really, really hope the show follows the books in terms of Nora’s love interests.
Beverly Crusher from Star Trek: TNG. Having a Twilight-esque relationship with a ghost who fucked her grandma was okay with the network, but being with a woman was not.
ghanimasun replied to your post “What are your thoughts on Aeryn's hairstyle through the seasons?:)”
Agree so hard on the extensions in season 4, they look so fake and serve no purpose and are very impractical. Lovely post overall :)
Ah thank you! Yeah they’re pretty terrible, they don’t really look good or make sense in the context of the story. I’m not a hair expert but I think that if her hair wasn’t responding well to straightening.... don’t straighten it? They could have gone back to the sort of loose wavy plaits they had going in early season one.
6 and 15
6: 5 female characters who are adorable dorks
Amy, Brooklyn Nine Nine
Mac, Veronica Mars
Tara, The Walking Dead
Felicity, Arrow
Amy, Faking It
(Wow there are NOT enough female dorks on my screen, I need to find some more.)
15: 5 female characters I want to rescue from their horrible narratives
Helena, Orphan Black
Michonne, The Walking Dead (pretty much all female characters on that show tbh)
Iris, The Flash
Raven, The 100
That’s kinda the whole list - I’ve gotten a lot quicker to dropping shows when they don’t do female characters right. Abbie (and Jenny) on SH are left off cause we’ll see how things go with the new showrunner/direction, but they might qualify (for top spot).
Jake/Amy, Cosima/Delphine, Veronica/Weevil, Clarke/Lexa, Poussey/Taystee (hope the fandoms are obvious!)
Jake/Amy: OTPPPPPPPP <3 *hearteyes*
Cosima/Delphine: OTP but in a lowkey way
Veronica/Weevil: BROTP then but if I watched now, who knows - coulda worked.
Clarke/Lexa: OTP NOTP as of last episode (that was fucking low Lexa)
Poussey/Taystee: Hmmm, teetering on the border of OTP/BRTOP, Poussey deserves someone who's all in and idk if Taystee will ever get there.
(They were obvious yes! :) Not a lot of Weevils and Taystees out there. ^^)
Happy Birthday to you! Welcome to getting older and older :)
Thank you! <3 *hugs* (Although is there an off-switch to the getting older thing, cause I don't like it and I want to get off here. :s)
