shadowkat: (Tv shows)
[personal profile] shadowkat
I like to do this every once and a while - find out what tv series that people reading or lurking on my livejournal are reading. Assuming of course anyone is outside of the handful of folks that occasionally comment. It's really impossible to tell who reads your journal and who doesn't, even if you lock all the entries - isn't it? Sort of true about most things that we write or say - actually. You don't know if people read it or heard it - unless they respond. Whether they grokked it - is a whole other issue. (Grokked is now a word - which Robert Heinlein created - and it means understood, but really totally understood it, as opposed to just got it.)

A couple of caveats regarding this poll - it is unfortunately slanted toward American Standard and Basic Cable Television, because that is what I have access to. Also, only tv shows that are on this season, nothing that is cancelled or in hiatus. (ie. only available on DVD or netflix streaming). Also if your favorite series is not referenced, because seriously there are over 125 tv series on at the moment and I can only remember or possibly watch 28 of them, please just list it in the comments. And it's more than possible I'll forget one of the one's I'm watching. (Lack of sleep may be killing short term memory cells.) Apologies for mistakes in advance. I'm doing a poll because they are easier to get responses to than memes.




[Poll #1984210]


Oh I only listed the new shows that have premiered to date. If it hasn't premiered yet, I didn't list it. And with the exception of Walking Dead (which is rerunned on numerous channels, and Arrow, I left tv shows that haven't aired yet this week off the list. Or tried to. Trying to keep it current.

Yeah, it's amazing what image we have of anyone in the artistic fields. I remember meeting my first author - going to her house - when I was in college. I expected a mansion with a pool. *snerk*

One of my college professors had written a slew of mystery novels, and was a television scribe. I'd never heard of him before I went to college - and he was an amazing teacher. Anyhow - he told us the first day of class that if we were writing to become the next Stephen King or the next Great American Writer? To give up now. Because seriously, the odds of it happening...are slim to none. And after you get your first book published and few have read it, the wonder passes. But if you are writing not so much to get published or fame or fortune, but because you have something to say - then be a writer.

I understand it is far less likely than being hit by lightning. :D
