Hmmm, tried Community pilot tonight, and it's sort of good. We'll see if I stick with. I have a love/hate relationship with situation comedies.

The poll below is a bit of fun. I'm curious where people who have friended me, or read me, or are on my flist, or on lj fall on these things, also where everyone lives on planet earth and how many people live where. I ran out of poll questions. They stop at 15. Or I'd have asked a couple of fan related ones about ships. But hey, done that before.

Also now that everyone has more or less read and commented on the Buffy comics to date, specifically issues 34 and 35 - am curious to see where the vast majority of people fall on that issue. The questions may seem sort of non-sequitor or unrelated, but hey that's why it is kitchen sink.

Please feel free to link. [Also a bit of a warning, I'm fully aware that the last question is a bit on the controversial side - so I tried to lighten it up a bit. It's an issue I've been thinking about lately, because I've found myself in the sitch, where people my age are dating people much much younger. (It's fun when you find yourself getting rejected by a guy online, because he thinks you are too old for him, and he's either your age or about 5-10 years older than you, while a guy the same age as your mother/father or just five years younger wants to date you.) So I'm curious what you think about the issue. NOTE - no bashing of people's views. Disrespectful comments will be deleted without explanation. It's not like your view is going to change the world. And if you are uncomfortable - hey that's the fun of polls, it requires work to figure out who said what.} (Hopefully more than 10 people will do this...polls are scarey for two reasons: 1) if no one does it, you look like an idiot. 2) everyone has an opinion on how a poll should be done and is annoyed when you don't put an option that applies to them personally. (I get where you guys are coming from, I've lost count of the polls I could not answer because there wasn't an answer that applied. But having done a lot of these polls, I can testify to the fact that - you are going to screw up somewhere and leave something out or spell something wrong. )Not lj-cutting because no spoilers.

[ETA: So apparently I put the UK twice in the poll below. Sorry about that. Don't know what I was thinking. Could have been worse - could have put the USA twice. Also...sorry about not listing all the tv shows...but ran out of room. They give you a limited number of questions and ticky boxes on these things.]

Oh, you're watching Community? Excellent choice! It only gets better from the pilot onward. It's a wonderful ensemble that focuses on character-based humor and spoofing pop culture. I'd love to hear your thoughts if you continue watching! And I have a sneaking suspicion that Jane Espenson knows all that is good and the fact that she watches Community and enjoys it was fun to learn after I'd fallen for the show. What's great about the show is it's self-awareness.

Community and Vampire Diaries are the new shows I enjoyed the most this year, the former being my favorite.

It's all the flailing about it on my flist that peaked my curiousity - so giving it a whirl. But I'm famously intolerant of sitcoms. Rare that I stay interested for very long. They aren't wrong when they say comedy is HARD to do well. And I have a very dry sense of humor.

For me the best new shows are The Good Wife and The Vampire Diaries.
The Good Wife blew me away this year.
