• 30 Day Challenge: Parks and Recreation, Day 2: Favorite Main Character

    THIS IS SO HARD. WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS FOR DAY TWO??? BECAUSE I AM A GLUTTON FOR PUNISHMENT APPARENTLY. I really feel like I just had a Leslie Knope moment right there, but I wasn’t speaking in hyperbole. The choice leaves me feeling incredibly conflicted. There are moments in which every person on Parks and Rec…

  • 30 Day Parks and Recreation Challenge, Day 1: How I Was Introduced to Parks and Recreation

    I am one of those people who never really gets into anything right at the beginning, at least in terms of media. Like with Game of Thrones, I’ve watched Seasons 1 and 2, part of Season 3, and most of Season 7. Don’t judge me. I have been meaning to watch Ash vs. the Evil Dead, The Handmaid’s Tale, Maniac, and like thirty…

    Tomorrow begins my journey into slaving over 50,000 words that may or may not ever become something! If you’re so inclined, feel free to add me as a buddy over there, and we can cheer each other on as fellow masochists.

    I don’t know what it is about the fall that always brings big changes in my life, but it’s a consistent thing pretty much throughout my short stint into adulthood. Maybe it’s like I got so used to the United States’ school year that the universe just aligns itself that way? Regardless, 2019 is definitely…

  • 31 Day Battlestar Galactica Challenge, Supplemental: Galen Tyrol

    The Chief comes in second as my favorite character in Battlestar Galactica, and it was actually a pretty close race. A good portion of my love for Galen Tyrol comes from my adoration of his actor, Aaron Douglas, who has such a natural approach to acting, but honestly, the character is just so wonderful and…

  • 31 Day Battlestar Galactica Challenge, Supplemental: Sharon Agathon

    Okay, so I know I said that Sharon was a runner up to my favorite character, Kara “Starbuck” Thrace, but I really feel like she deserves her own post. She is such a strong character, starting from her Big Reveal, and without her, the series would not be the same. I mean, obviously, but still.

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 30: What Did I Think of the Ending?

    In the light of recent TV show finales that were awful (sorry, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, I love you and the actors did a great job, but …), I decided to pull out my DVD collection of Battlestar Galactica and rewatch the finale to see if any of my opinions changed since the last time I did…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 29: Something That Didn’t Happen I Wish Did

    Admiral Cain* was a great character. She was everything Starbuck wanted to be: tough, respected, had her shit together, got what she wanted, stuck with her convictions, and didn’t sleep with Baltar. She wasn’t without her flaws, obviously, seeing as she had Roslin and Adama planning on her assassination, but it’s not like she was…
