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.]

A TV show not on your list that I both watch and would recommend is Medium. Well written and acted, usually a neat twist at the end, and has been doing so for several years now but rarely seems to get mentioned in the SF and fantasy community.

Also, no Chuck on the list. Fun show, goofy at times but endearing.

These days I usually DVR Grey's Anatomy; mixed feelings about this show, and I find I watch it mostly for the actors, many of whom routinely do very good work with writing that's all over the place-- sometimes brilliant, many times simply ridiculous. Also, Way too much use of music, and yes, I know this was one of the first major network shows to popularize this trend, but they've really driven it into the ground in the last year or two.

The problem is really that the music is an anvil in most every scene-- the actors are good enough to carry the emotion of the scene all by themselves, but they seldom let them alone.

Oh, and Waaah! I want my TSCC back! Waahhh!!
