Hello lovelies!

Let's talk turke-er-TV! New series are upon us and I'm totally stoked (this is my shameful secret, I probably watch way more TV than one person is ever supposed to!). Let's see, Good Girls Season 2 debut this week. I'm usually one of those people who sees the pieces on the board, and the movements they're going to make like a move or three in advance. For some reason, though, when I expect this show to zig, it TOTALLY zags! I have no idea where they're going, but I'm excited to find out (also, I'd love to murder Wesley in his sleep =P).

Is anyone trying NBC's Enemy Within? I gotta admit, that first episode HOOKED ME. Now, less shameful, and probably not a secret, I admit I have much love for Jennifer Carpenter! She kills me! The way she can simultaneously smile, but make it so pained, or let her voice waver between the octaves of humor and despair. It's just something I don't know that I've ever really seen before. I could understand if she's bugs people, I could see that, but for me... sold!

Oh, I'm also really enjoying Zack's Pre-Apocalyptic Showdown. Otherwise known as The Passage. The little girl (Saniyya Sidne), is just amazing! And I really love the connection between both she and "The Agent" (aka Zack from Saved By The Bell). =D Man, the casting on this one! You got Desmond from "The Hatch" and Lucky from the Boardwalk and that kid from the Exorcist. So far, a pretty decent show!

The Good Fight starts on the 13th, I think, and if there's ever a show I've spent the last 3 years anticipating, it's that one. Those who know me, know I'm a liberal, and I get why, as a conservative, that one might be a little hard to enjoy. I'd just encourage those who might think the rhetoric is too thick to give it a chance. I think, and obvs this is just my opinion, but I think it's trying really hard to say, "Hey, even if we don't share common ideas for this Country, at least we can try to come to a place of logic and reason, while respecting one another." IDK. Maybe that's just what I want it to be saying.

Handmaid's Tale is coming up, and there's that Whiskey Tango dealy! I watched The Neverland one, too, on HBO the last few days. It was a hard one. Whether you believe the two of them or not, it's time to start admitting (and _understanding_) that sexual abuse (or abuse in general) does some pretty crazy things with the mind. You make concessions with yourself, all in an effort to make an abnormal situation liveable. I know I did (I wasn't sexually abused, but that was the only way i wasn't). The Nation seems a little too divided right now for logical and cool-headed conversations about such volatile things, I think, but we need to have them soon!

So what's on your TV dance card this season? What are you looking forward to and what are you glad to let go of? Has one of the big three cancelled one of your darlings? Gah, they always seem to nix the best stuff, don't they? Talk amongst yourselves!
