brokenrecordSupernatural freaked me the fuck out, so my brain isn't really thinking well and I don't have much to say on these, but I wanted to say something.
I think it was a little better than the previous episodes. I liked the Luke/Lorelai storyline and especially Lorelai acknowledging that Luke is a saint and does everything for her.
Also, finally Richard and Emily find out that A) Lorelai was telling the truth about everything, and B) the Huntzbergers suck. Looking forward to what the previews showed with Richard coming to talk to Lorelai. And I liked Rory nearly admitting that the only reason she stole the boat/dropped out of Yale was because of what Mr. Huntzberger said.
And honesty? I agree with him. He was more of an ass about it in this episode than he should've been, but he was right. I don't agree with what Mrs. Huntzberger said and how the family reacted to Rory at the dinner, but Mr. Huntzberger is right about what he said to Rory. I can't say for myself if Rory is cut out to be a journalist, but I definitely do agree that if she was dedicated, what he said wouldn't have broken her, and she wouldn't have started having a panic attack the second she saw him for the first time in months. If she was truly committed to being a journalist, she would try to use what he said to make her a better journalist. At the very least, she wouldn't let one man's opinion ruin her future.
I don't know. Maybe I'm just crazy.
Hee. Nothing to say plotwise, just that I'm so glad I decided to download the Pilot. Favorite comedy after Arrested Development (...not that that's saying much, as the list of comedies I watch is... My Name is Earl and Arrested Development, basically). But still. I really enjoy watching it.

Yeah, so I didn't even see half of this episode. The previews for this freaked me out. And I don't know if it was because the episode was particularly scary, or if I'm just a wimp, but I'm thinking it's more me being a wimp. Also, because I was traumatized by seeing What Lies Beneath when I was 12 (which was when I first found out that horror movies and me don't mix) and then The Ring freaked me out (though actually, What Lies Beneath had be freaked out longer than The Ring. But then, I was a year or two older when I saw the Ring). But in any case, those two movies have ruined mirrors for me. They are now my weak spots. That, and What Lies Beneath ruined bathrooms for me. And The Ring ruined scary little girls with long, dark hair covering their faces. And girls climbing out of flat things (mirrors/TVs). [shudder]
...uh, yes. So I fastforwarded through every moment I thought Bloody Mary would appear. Of course, at the end, I stopped it right as she suddenly started climbing out of the mirror. Ah, I have perfect timing.
So, yeah. I do like the show! Just... not when they prey on my fears. Which they've been doing in pretty much every episode. 1st, girl spirit and water/drowning (What Lies Beneath), the second was fine (I'm cool with maulings and ravenous beasts and all), 3rd was all right until the end with the creepy boy spirit in the water (Whate Lies Beneath again), 4th was all right in terms of horror, but I absolutely detest planes, and the first 5 minutes had me feeling like throwing up, and 5th of course I already went into detail. Clearly, the WB does not want me to be able to go to sleep at night. Or take a shower. Or go to the bathroom ever again.
Yes. I am a complete wimp.
Kitchen Confidential is no longer on my viewing schedule. It was inevitable, though. The first episode just didn't capture my interest. And plus, you know you have to drop a show when you see it in your list of saved shows on your DVR player and think "Crap, I don't want to watch this." So I deleted it instead. From the two episodes I saw, it just didn't seem to have much of a... point to it. Like, they have the premise all set up, but I don't see where they're going with it. And that would all be ok to deal with, except I didn't even find it particularly funny. I really wanted to like it, too. Oh well.
