Miranda and The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

Miranda 3.6 A Brief Encounter

( Read more... )

The Lizzie Bennet Diaries - Eps 21 to 30 and Lydia’s first two. Watched off the show's website itself rather than futzing around YouTube, which I think is better.

Catch-up time

Miranda 3.05 three little words

I don’t actually remember when I watched this episode – it was on iPlayer, anyway.

( Plunge in )

My TV has been playing up – I presume the weather was to blame, which means I’m dependant on my laptop (for TV, DVDs and radio, to a certain extent). This has been/is aggravating. Hopefully, supper and watching the new season opener of The Good Wife will improve my mood.

In short, don’t see this if you haven’t seen Casablanca ever (or recently), watch Casablanca instead.

in the middle of the night, I go walking to M&S...

First, I now own Arrested Development on DVD (yay! I have watched all three seasons on borrowed DVDs, but given that the fourth season will soon appear, I decided I'd take advantage of Christmas generosity this way.)

Second, I've just caught up on Miranda. Here are my thoughts on series 3 so far.

3.01 It was panning ( Read more... )

3.02 What a Surprise ( Read more... )

3.03 The Dinner Party ( Read more... )

I thought this after the first two series, but even more so after the last ep - I could stand to read an analysis of how Miranda is in the lineage of Bridget Jones - it's not the only obvious influend, of course, but still. And it's proof that the comedy of failing to be a competent modern sophisticated woman isn't mined nearly enough. And not honestly enough either.

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.

Last Tango in Halifax ep 3 – I’m catching up on Sundays, so I’m a week behind.

And apparently it’s getting recommissioned for a second series. And, while half-watching The One Show last night with Anne Reid and Miranda Hart, I discovered that the reconnecting-later-in-life romance truly happened to Sally Wainwritght’s mother, which is lovely.

AND Miranda is back for a third series on BOXING DAY.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to watch the final episode live; it depends on when/if I’ll be able to see the Hobbit.
