CURRENTLY AIRING SHOWS

Star Wars Rebels: S03E07: Eh. Teenagers, more teenagers, not enough Sabine and Sato and his nephew don't look related to me (but then I'm bad at faces). Thrawn and Sato's ~worthy adversary~ brief dialogue made me ship it.


Lucifer: S02E09: DR LINDA! Standing up to primordial forces of the universe for her patients <3. Chloe helping Lucifer kill Lux. Maze deliberately embarassing Amenadiel, aw. This show continues to be great fun.


The Librarians: S03E01: IT'S BACK! :D I was worried for a moment that they were going to make Seth the bad guy -- there was a close-up on a dog-headed god carving and I was ready to rant especially since it was Anubis -- but it was Apep, so all is forgiven! (Seth gets a bad rep.) I shoudl have trusted the show more -- after all, it's the show that named Lancelot as the son of Ban. Anyway, Antikythera mechanism!!! I loved Cassandra this episode and Eve and Jenkins and Ezekiel and the Stumpy shoutout, but Jake had my favourite line with "'Pure Evil'? As opposed to 'fake evil'?".


Legends of Tomorrow: S02E06: It's my favourite Western genre: timetravelling western! (Look, there's Back to the Future III, this episode and one other from this show at least, that's three examples, that makes it a genre.) I ended up shipping Sarah/Jonah, ngl -- if nobody writes that fic and calls it "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy", I will be very disappointed with fandom.


Class: S01E06: This was a really lovely bottle episode and in real time on top of that! Creepy concepr, really well executed. I loved getting a better view of the characters, including their darkest sides. Matteusz and his dodgy Narnia analogy, awwwwwwwwwww. Quite excited to see what Quill's been up to.


NOT CURRENTLY AIRING

Luke Cage: S1E09: STILL don't care about bloody Diamondback. Especially with his Bible obsession or whatever -- and yet nobody's made an Esau and Jacob reference or even a Cain and Abel one. I spend all the time he's on screen dreading one anyway.  Also, the music from the credits grates on me. I WOULD WATCH HOURS OF MAD SCIENTIST!CLAIRE, THOUGH.

Nirvana in Fire: E06: Have made no progress.

Miraculous Ladybug: S01E02: Have made no progress.

I really need to see more than one episode of this show.

[dhampyresa]

You should! It's one of a handful of Anglophone canons that doesn't do Arthuriana wrong*.

* I grew up with a vastly different Arthuriana tradition than the English-speaking one and when I say "a handful" I'm being entirely literal -- it goes Stargate SG1, High Noon Over Camelot, Demon Knights and Librarians counts for half (I have issues with their Morgane).

High Noon Over Camelot

Well, that looks awesome.

I like it a lot! It's a mix of song and spoken text. They have three similar albums (for now, the fourth is in the works), this one which is Arthuriana as a space western, Ulysses Dies At Dawn is cyberpunk noir Greek myths and Once Upon A Time (In Space) is fairytales in space, and all of which I really enjoy.

Oh oui, j'ai bien rigolé ! :D

Je pense que c'était mon épisode préféré de Class même si je les aime tous énormément. Les scènes Matteusz/Charlie étaient absolument géniales ! ♥

Au début j'étais hyper bof sur Matteusz mais franchement c'est derniers temps je pense que c'est mon personnage préféré.

I KNOW. I hadn't even realised that (a) there was going to be a season 3 and (b) that I'd missed them all so much!
