Sounds Revenge-y

This is where I'm at: generally, trying to get back into a routine.

I finished watching Community season 2 on DVD (so much love for the last two episodes) and am now working through the commentaries. I wished I'd been able to see the episodes and to be rewatching them more and more as the season went on, if that makes sense.

I am grateful that the Beeb seems to have decided to keep Miranda series 3 episodes available on iPlayer for more than a week, so I have caught up on the first two, which was nice, because I thought I'd have to wait for the DVD. But then I chose not to watch the third live, because it seemed as if watching Revenge live would be less complicated. So, expect a bumper Miranda post by the end of the week.

Revenge 2.01 (continuing the power point theme)

- Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Nolan’s house!

- I am not sure what the most absurd thing in this episode was.

- I am looking forward enormously to Jennifer Jason Leigh and Madeline Stowe’s first encounter (though the timeline from when Amanda’s mother was hospitalised to when Victoria sided with Conrad etc needs to be clarified for me).

- I was very impressed by how Emily/Amanda played many moments (yay!competence) and by how they found another moppet to play wee!Amanda.

- I don’t remember anything in the first season being quite so meta.

- And lots of Emily/Nolan fanservice. (Ha. Remember when I used to be all ‘sibling vibes’?)

- I felt twinges of pity for Declan and Charlotte. Ugh.

- But I’m currently mostly enjoying Conrad.

- And 'Japan' was so blatantly 'somewhere a little further down the beach'.
