I don't remember Pete being that much of an asshole last season, but this season he certainly is.
That is a real change.

I made one of my friends start watching Doctor Who and she just got to Doomsday and now she hates me. Whoops!
Additionally, now that Fringe is done I'm back to Doctor Who, I watched up through Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead today, and - how do we all feel about River? I don't like her. Although I suppose it's because I can see where that plotline is going (please don't tell me, though!) and I'm one of those delusional people who doesn't accept that Rose is stuck in the other universe.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Although I suppose it's because I can see where that plotline is going (please don't tell me, though!)
Where do you think it's going? We won't confirm or deny, obvs, but if that's what's keeping you from liking her, I'm interested to know.
I believe there are plenty of people in fandom who love River and plenty of people who hate her. For various reasons, I suppose.

Ah, see, I'm a prime Rose hater and wish Rose would stay the stuck gone in her alternate universe, so I happen to think River rocks like a rocking thing.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I adore both Rose and River!

I don't want to throw any of my theories out into where things that are not my brain have to deal with them, because I'm usually dead wrong and then horribly embarrassed, and I get enough of that.
I'm going to try to be open-minded, though, because I can't pinpoint WHY she just bugged me so much. I've liked everyone else who has basically ever appeared on the show, so I can't see why I'd stop now.

Finally got caught up completely on Alphas and I must say I loved the Gary and Bill show this latest episode. I already thought Gary rocked, and this episode modulated Bill a whole lot for me. I'm still a bit meh on the other three on the team, but they have their moments.
I am psyched by the previews for next week with the special guest star.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
SyFy is driving me BATTY with the not having Eureka online to view!! My Tivo deleted the 8/1 ep and it's still not on Syfy.com or Hulu, so I'm now THREE weeks behind. (It might be on Hulu Plus, but I'm not going to pay to find out.) Are they delaying eps for a month now? It used to be 8 days.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
That is a real change.
Maybe they are just trying to realistically portray a dry drunk, and wouldn't know subtlety if it walked up and bit 'em on the chin.
