shallownessI am back home and unpacking while catching up around the wonkiness of LJ – so I will be continuing to crosspost in 2013 (in this case, manually?). Hope everyone is well and had good holidays.
There was so much TV that I didn’t watch over the holidays because I wasn’t in control of the remote or was able to catch up online. (For my own reference as much as anything: no Downton Abbey Christmas special, Castle, the new Miranda or the latest episode of The Mentalist.) Instead, I read a lot, watched Snow White and the Huntsman on DVD and started watching Community season 2 – yay! just as good, and the awesome animated! Musical!! Christmas episode was a joy. I also went to see Pitch Perfect and was pleasantly surprised by it and very entertained, and I dragged a family member to come and see The Hobbit (my second viewing and they enjoyed themselves too.)
Re what I did watch: The Mentalist 5.08 Red Sails in the Sunset
I’ve never seen North by Northwest, so I am presuming there were lots of references – because they took advantage of so much of it being Jane on the lam to shoot it in a different style. I felt it was somewhat slow-moving. I’m glad Lisbon was on to Jane, who ended the episode with a Crazy Face. I spent most of the episode going ‘oh, I see what you were doing’ after Jane had done it. At least he seemed to be trying harder than he had last episode to get to Lisbon-manque, who I suppose I should now call Lorelai.
I also watched all the Strictly and I'll be posting about that soon and doing memespam too, probably.
