SMASH - R.I.P

Watched the Series Finale of SMASH, which had been retooled with much fan-fair, but ended up dying off quietly on Memorial Day Weekend. Which, upon watching the finale? Was a good thing. While I won't miss the series, I will miss the musical numbers and am disappointed that it means there may not be any more attempts to create series like it on tv.

This latest romance novel I'm reading, courtesy of a rec by "Smart Bitches the Read Romance Novels" is hilarious. It's a silhouette, entitled "The Tycoon's Rebel Bride" - was rec'd as a successful contemporary forbidden love romance.

Silly romance novel is distracting me from tv binging. I may have to delete Revolution, although only have four episodes left. I can't quite put my finger on what Kripke (former SPN showrunner) is doing wrong here. I think it's partly the same thing he did wrong in Supernatural...not building the story from an emotional base and relying too strongly on old tv tropes and cliches. Whatever it is...I finding it hard to care about the characters, and I keep finding out about things that seem to pop in out of nowhere. Granted I did miss one episode. But it was only one episode.
