Shows for teens and shows for adults.

So I'm watching MeTV, as usual, and they advertise lots of CW shows on there since the local CW is an affiliate of the same channel that affiliates with the local MeTV.

They advertise the new version of The Flash. And some girl is talking about having a spell of chronic diarrhea, apparently meaning it as a sarcastic quip from her tone of voice.

Ummmm, what?

**rolls eyes.** I can count on Gotham to not rely on dumb, childish scatological humor. It's a nice, intelligent, intense series written for mature people. And tonight's episode was the best they've done yet!

( Some spoilers for episode 6 )

I love this show. So much. I can hardly wait for next week's episode!

The last couple of times I've been able to watch it as it airs on TV. So much nicer than playing it online and having it skip around and buffer. I really only want to watch it on TV if I won't be walked in on, so we'll see if that pattern continues.

Next week American Ride is finally back, too, and it'll be in the same timeslot. Sigh. But luckily, it does repeat a couple of times. I could catch the 10 P.M. or the 1 A.M. repeat.

It is really nice to have a couple of current TV shows that are worth following and looking forward to, especially after Once has been disappointing me so thoroughly all year. I just hope Gotham always keeps to the same levels of awesome. Once was really great in its first year too. It was really in season 2 when it started to unravel, but I gritted my teeth and stuck it out and found enough to like about it until season 3B came along.

... WTH?

I love my surveys. I really do. But I really hate it when I get one that asks me "How many times have you eaten thus and so in the last 4 weeks?" and expects me to give an amount.

WTH? It's not like I write down a chart of how many times I eat something! How the @*%$# am I supposed to remember how many times I've eaten something in the past month?

And looking over the prompt tables for the comms I run didn't really inspire me for any Once writing projects. The thought of taking out any table for Once, even if I own said table, sounds more like a chore than anything else, since I really don't think it likely that I'd fill it all.

Probably 31_days would make the most sense. No claims, no pressure.

I don't know why I'm so particularly shy about posting Once fics on FF.net, though. I'm more shy about that than any other category, excepting perhaps WWW. Yet the Once fic I did last year still got Favorites in the middle of summer. I know part of it is worrying about not getting them IC; it seems like other writers hear the characters so much better than I do. Since I've only seen the episodes once each, except for Skin Deep, there's lots of details I've probably forgotten. But maybe my shyness is also that I don't want to start a project and then abandon it soon in, since it's a popular series with lots of interested fans. But if it's a vignette series, then each should be fairly self-contained, so it wouldn't be as much of a problem.
