I just set them up, just set them up, just set them up to knock them down

You know when you have some money left over from Christmas and you go to HMV?





Kill Bill: Volume 1 (2003) // Kill Bill: Volume 2 (2004)
The L Word: Season 5 // Dollhouse: Season 2
Black Book (Zwartboek) (2006) // Coco Chanel et Igor Stravinsky (2009)
The Ghost (2010) // The Wrestler (2008)
Flamingo: Brandon Flowers

And I also ordered the last season of BSG. It was, like £14 cheaper to buy the two halves online than in the shop. ALSO: why was it so confusingly titled in the UK? Like, 4.0 is called Season Four, and then 4.5 is 'The Final Season'. Thanks for clearing that up, marketing people. I know 4.0 was released as aired and before 4.5 started showing, but other shows are released in clear half seasons - like Caprica is now - and, in conclusion, I am probably just a) overreacting and b) slow.

IN OTHER NEWS, I totally got the Dollhouse Season 2 set that came with the little comic book, which I wasn't expecting. I sort of thought that might have just been around when the season first came out but HMV had sets with and without it, so. /nerdtacular.

Has anyone else been out a-purchasing yet this year? Obviously now I need to be sensible and save money and other dull/necessary things, but, um. BEING FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE IS HARRRRD.

I spend a lot of time whilst I am watching the L Word wondering why I am watching The L Word when I clearly dislike so many of the characters. And yet I keep watching. - THIS EXACTLY. Like, I actually can't stand Tina but I sort of want Bette/Tina to happen mostly because I really like Bette? And I like Helena post-season 2, and CARMEN WAS MY FAVOURITE. Also it is good to hear that someone else disliked mental!Alice after the Dana break up, because it just got to a point where I was reacting the same way to her as I was to Jenny. Jenny. seeeriously Jenny is so irritating. But then sometimes I like her? ~RIDICULOUS AND COMPLICATED FEELINGS~

S7 of The X-Files is my favourite, hands down. Season 8 is, um, not so great but I would say give it a watch, and then season 9 is like being bored to death whilst simultaneously mourning the loss of the show that you are currently watching. But I guess worth it for the sake of completion? I will warn you now though that Scully in s8/9 is the victim of some of the most ridic character assassination I have seen on tv.

I shall def give The Good Wife a go! Will it spoil me for everything ever if I jump in wherever it's airing now? Should I just catch up first or can I start watching along on tv?

CRACKS, yes, it is a Cracks icon. I loved the film (isolated girls' school with a f/f teacher/student dynamic? YES PLEASE. I am so ridiculous, I know, but omfg). And Eva Green was so beautiful. WHICH MAKES A CHANGE. /sarcasm.

Yeah the moments where I like Tina are few and far between. But then Bette was the one that cheated. Ugh, IDK. Complicated, yes.

Did you watch any of Lip Service? I didn't see the whole series but I found I had a lot of the same issues with it about liking/disliking characters.

Haha, yes I loved Cracks for many of the same reasons. Teacher/sudent, boarding school and diving which I actually know a little about? Yes, please!
