Fall television came back! Yay!

So, first some random - watched two interesting parts of a series on PBS called "In Search of Heroes and Myths". I saw the ones about the Queen of Sheba and Arthur: Once and Future King. Interesting stuff. I did not know all that stuff about Ethiopia being one of the first Christian countries in the world.

So, This Week in Television, I saw:

( spoilers for the premiere of Glee )

( spoilers for the premiere of Bones )

( spoilers for the premiere of Smallville )

Before my most recent rewatch of the new movie, I watched the beginning of Wrath of Khan. After I came home from the movie, I watched the ending (and then immediately had to rewatch Search for Spock because I couldn't stop while Spock was dead, could I?).

In honor of that, have some TOS recs:

1. What the Heart Remembers by

killabeez. It's about Spock recovering his memories in the lull at the end of movie IV and the man who is always at the heart of those memories. K/S.

2. Wilderness Were Paradise Enow by

belmanoir. Set post-"This Side of Paradise". Jim wonders if Spock is unhappy on the Enterprise. K/S.

3. Graven Image by

sans_pertinence. Mirror-verse Kirk/Spock. You know you want it.

And now some more new Star Trek (2009) recs: ( 12 fic recs (spoilers for the new movie) )

On a side note, I've rewatched the ending of Glee about three times. Cute. The show's pace feels a bit like it's on speed, though. Maybe that'll improve in the actual season.

Additional note, I really don't understand the hate for the Bones finale. I thought it was clever, sweet, and good drama. I'm genuinely baffled at the hate.

ETA: I just found the perfect Sisko song. Dude. Now I just need to borrow my dad's DS9 dvds...

The schedules for the 2008-09 television season have come out and I'm really amused by the fact that half of the shows I'll be watching are airing on FOX, the station that I said I would never watch again after what happened with Firefly.

( my projected fall schedule )

Bones, House, Boston Legal: Big fan in a non-fannish way. Bones makes me gleeful just about every week, House is quite emotionally satisfying, and Alan is a better friend than Denny deserves.

Current Mood: happy

I wanted to wait until all of my 'non-summer' television was over before I posted this, and Doctor Who had to go and air oddly, crossing over between fall-spring television nearly into summer. But now it's done and I feel able to sum up how I felt. So, in alphabetical order, what I watched this year:

( spoilers for Battlestar Galactica )

( Bones/Numb3rs )

( Boston Legal )

( spoilers for Doctor Who )

( spoilers for House )

( spoilers for Prison Break )

( spoilers for Smallville )

( Supernatural )

( Torchwood )
