I think the S4 ending of Being Human actually killed me. Or possibly someone just took my insides through a meatgrinder. It feels like that anyway. That doesn't mean I didn't like it. It means I liked the storytelling of it so much that I now feel like flinging myself off a roof.

Fortunately Merlin S5 is starting this weekend, so I won't just be spending my weekend in a fetal position on my bed, crying my eyes out. I've also started watching Once Upon a Time. Yeah. I don't know what happened. But I figured I needed something that didn't ruin my brain, so it's going to be my Autumn-show. Plus it stars Jennifer Morrison, who is amazing.

I'm a little miffed that Supernatural S8 has started now, and I'm still only half-way through S6, and getting nowhere, because my TV is broken. I'm almost done with Black Books, though (how are there not 700000 seasons of this brilliance??) and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for other shows like that, because I don't know how I can cope without it.

*BH hugs* Are we still up for the 1x02 re-watch this evening?
MERLIN :D I'm about to start Once Upon a Time too, because of Robert Carlyle reasons.

This. I've been going for sillier stuff lately.

Black Books is way too short :( Have you watched The IT Crowd? Not as good as Black Books, but some episodes really made me laugh, and it's about computer geeks, so... ;)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

*hugs* Yep, but I was wondering if we could change the time, because my mom is taking me out to eat around there :) so maybe a little later if that's alright with you? Or earlier if that fits you better.

I've heard about The IT Crowd, I'll definitely check it out now :)

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Oh, cool :) Sure, I'm not going out so it's no problem. It's a matter of before or after Merlin though, because I'll be watching it live at 8.45, so tell me which suits you best :)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

*is not jealous at all that you get to watch Merlin before I do* Uuummm, are you free tomorrow as well then? :)

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

:P
Er, technically yes, but I'll be working so lot so I don't think I'll be online much...

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. Argh, I hate this, but could we possibly do it next weekend then?

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

You really can't tonight? Yeah, I guess we could, or I'll try to find an hour tomorrow evening, maybe 5 or 6 p.m?

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Sorry I didn't answer this! I was already out :/

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

No problem, hope you had fun :)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

It was okay :) there's been some drama in the extended family, but its all sorted now, luckily. I'm so sorry I missed our rewatch :/

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Ah crap, family drama always makes me uncomfortable, good thing if it's sorted :)
Don't worry about that, we can do it next Saturday, or maybe later in the week one evening, my end of week seems rather free work-wise so far, hope it stays that way ;)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Ah, good :) I'm busy Friday, but maybe Thursday? I'm going to Copenhagen Sunday morning (... I think)

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Thursday sounds good, since my classmates will be out getting drunk and I won't be. I'll have BH feelings instead ;)
Aah, sounds great! What will you be doing there?

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Perfect! (:

Holiday with the family. One of my friends who lives there are in a play (Dracula), so we're planning to go watch it and go to the Zoo and maybe Tivoli (this amazing amusement park, where they're actually putting up the play in the evening as well). It's only for a few days though :)

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Does 7 p.m sound like an okay time for you?

Ooh, Dracula :) It sounds like fun!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Yep :)

I think it will be - it's actually a musical :D

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Gah, so sorry I couldn't make it, I fell asleep :/ I've been ill all day and basically just laid down on the couch...
Do you want to watch it later tonight or should we postpone it again? So sorry...

Ah, you'll have to tell me how it was, I'm curious :)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

That's okay :) I just logged on and waited, didn't want to harrass you with messages in case you were busy - I got quite distracted, so I didn't see this until now! I hope you're better now? Is it like what happened a few days ago, or is it the season getting to you? (I swear, one day I'm sneezing out my lungs and the next I'm perfectly fine, and then it goes repeat)

Well, like everything else in Denmark (including me) our capitol is pretty small :D but I'll probably bring a camera, and I can spam you all with pictures of my exploits. It is quite fun being there, and I haven't visited in a while.

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Next time I'll set up an alarm on my phone... Sorry again!

The season isn't helping, all these changes in temperature are bringing me down :/ And I feel the same, I go from sick-ish to fine, and back again.
Actually, this morning I threw up and then felt dizzy all day. I tried to get up at some point and nearly fell. I'm feeling a bit better now :) Think I'm going to rest tomorrow though. I basically spent the day lying down and watching Once Upon a Time (which is very enjoyable btw).


Yes, pictures please! It looks like a nice place to be, from what I've seen of it on tv :P

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

You don't have to apologize, just concentrate on getting better <3 :) when's your break? it sounds like you need some time off. And I'm glad you're enjoying ouat, I've just burned through it in a few days (:

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Thanks <3 It's in two weeks time, and yes, I'll be happy to have it!
Well, I tend to find American shows boring these days, but this one's got something. Okay, I'm a sucker for fairy tales. Also, the fact that it has Robert Carlyle in it is a big plus. He's one of these actors I really admire :)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I am such a sucker for fairy-tales as well ;) that is definitely what spoke the most to me about the show. And I love Carlyle as well - he is excellent. How far in are you right now?

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it makes me feel like a little girl watching Snow White again, lol. I'm about to watch episode 6 :)

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I've started watching 'the IT Crowd' after you recommended it btw :) still only at the third episode, but really liking it this far

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Glad you like it! It doesn't make me laugh instantly like 'Black Books' does, but I do love Moss, Roy and Jen :P

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Well, it would take a lot to match 'Black Books', so I'm satisfied :P I was also very pleased by the surprise!Noel Fielding I suddenly got. That was splendid

[the-silverdoe.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, Richmond is awesome :D

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

Oh the end of S4 of Being Human kicks you in the heart. It's very rude.

I really like Once Upon a Time, the characters and the way their stories are all interwoven are fun. And the first episode of S2 is awesome!

I WANT MORE BLACK BOOKS!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

It definitely is :(

I'm really enjoying OUaT, much more than I expected actually. I like the strong female characters, the complexity and the acting. And I'm enough of a sucker for fairy-tales that, even when the shows turns a bit cheesy because of them, I still enjoy it. Plus the acting and general badassness saves it as well :)

Can we start a campaign??

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

I like the complexity of some of the characters. They have depth, even the most evil isn't just a cut-out villian. Cheesy-smheesy, awesome princesses win out!

Oooooo, I like this campaign idea :D

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I've just watched Skin Deep and that was an amaaaaazing episode. I really liked Belle, and their spin on the fairy-tale was incredibly neat.

Something must be done :D

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

I loved the spin on the Beauty and the Beast tale with Belle! Possibly my favourite still. I just watched the second ep of the new season and *flails a little madly*. It gets better!!

We could offer them cookies?

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I can't wait! I just watched 'The Return' last night and OMG!!! I didn't think my heart could be broken any more than it already was. NOT FAIR!

(but if August isn't Bae, he's totally Pinocchio isn't he? I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE GUESSING WITH THIS SHOW BECAUSE I'M SURE I'LL BE HORRIBLY WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING. But he totally is, isn't he?????)

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, but they like trying to tear your heart out. And sometimes they succeed. And yes, August will end up trying to break it just a bit more too...

GO WATCH!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

:( :( :( :(

(aw, c'mon xD)

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

You don't want me to tell you!! You just think you do. Besides, it'll still shock you anyway!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

Ooookaaaay -.- I might PM-attack you with reactions later. I can barely breathe as it is

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I WAS RIGHT DEAR LORD I RULE I WAS RIGHT FOR ONCE!!!

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

Did August rip your heart out yet? Cause he did that to me... It was mean!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I finished... I cannot contain all of these feelings. I don't know how... why... but... ARGH! There's two episodes of the new season, yeah? MUST WATCH ASAP

[fogsblue.livejournal.com]

Yep, 2 and seriously... *flails* I lack words!

[keep-counting.livejournal.com]

I'll watch them tonight! :D
