anyway this week I watched...
NCIS- It was actually a big week for NCIS in my life, not only did new episodes return to Australia (finally!) but it was the 200th episode. Now while I really enjoyed the 200th episode, I'm kind of glad that this type of episode only happens once every 200. I mean it was good, it was very good to see some familiar faces (although it would have been better if we could have had an actual scene, like with Jenny, instead of just having her photoshopped in) but at the same time I felt like they were bitting off more than they could chew. They were trying to explore so many things, that they just didn't have time for in 43minutes. Thus some of the dinner stuff felt redundant, jest because it wasn't fully explored, same thing I think with the 2-parter engaged, that just aired in Australia. I really enjoyed the episode, but it just fell a bit short for me, as compared to some of the 2 parter's in the past. Almost definitly because the other 2-parters were really a culmination of lots of things that had been teased througout the season, were this felt more like a case of the week. That being said, still very enjoyable, but probably because it hadn't been built up as much as others, it fell a little short.
Fringe: WOW, just WOW, I mean Fringe is always good, it always manages to manipulate my emotions but his episode WOW. I definitely the best episode of the season, It was so so good to see walter peter and Oliva investigating in typical Fringe fashion, it was so good to see the dynamics that I love, Walter was being funny again, the case was interesting, and that last scene! I don't think my face has ever been consorted into so many different positions in just a few seconds, I was at the same time elated, horrified, confused and in awe. It felt like the Fringe I love, but at the same time, this was still technically a case of the week episode, so I just can't wait for the fabled observer episode, because this one just blew my mind, from beginning ot end, and I'm not sounding very cohesive, because it was so good I am incapable of thinking clearly, LOVED this weeks ep!
Law and Order: SVU- I've decided that I offically like stabler-less (cue bad stability joke) SVU, possibly even more than stabler SVU, which is very weird, and I think its mainly due to the new girl, who is played by the same person who played the lead person in Chase, and I thinks name is something silly like giddish, her character name is also stupid, except less funny. The only resong I remember this is because every single article about SVU mentions this fact, and the fact that the characters are almost identical. Admitably I don't think the girl from chase had much of a character besides the fact that she runs a lot, and almost got eaten by a tiger (because I don't forgot ridiclous plot points like that very easily) and maybe its the fact that they both have the same accent, but they seem like the same character. But seeing as I really hate the Spannish speaking boy (and Oliva speaks Spannish, so he's practiacally redundant) I must like her, because I like the show again, a lot. Or maybe its the fact that we know have 2 girls again, and she has blounde hair like Alex, who I really like, anyway, weirdly liking this show.
Sherlock- This first episode of Sherlock frankly fell flat. It was probably because it was more just a random look into Sherlock's life, and didn't have a clear case, and although there were lots of little clues, we didn't know what we were supposed to be figuring out, so it wasn't as good, and partly because I dislike Sherlock so moppy, and thought that Irene falling so much in love with him was not good, that keypad thing was lame. I really like Sherlock, but I think it needed a much clearer sturcure.
The River- ugh, seriously ugh. I was actually quite annoyed, I wasn't really excepting to like this show, I mean I've never been a fan of the horror, and this definitely took inspiration from horror, but even so, I just didn't like it. I was probably willing to look past the hidden camera style of film making, if the storyline was intriguing, but it wasn't. The characters bar the main guy, were all extremely annoying, and I just didn't like it. Usually I'd go back and check it out some more, but no, this one just sucked.
thats all the remarkable TV that I can remember, I definitely watched more, but some of it was repeat watching for me on Australian TV, (ie Revenge and Alacatraz both premiered, I've decided that I actually like revenge, I've officially added it to my tracker,(ack I've got to clean it out for uni!) and am not excited but more anticipating the suppodably really good episode tomorrow) Nikita was quite cool this week, very twisty, and I really enjoyed bones, castle and the finder, very good episodes, and how can you go wrong with a superhero episode?
