I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

The Map of Tiny Perfect Things came up in my recommendations on Amazon Prime. I gave it a try.

I may be a sap, but I liked it very much. Much better than I liked Groundhog Day.

Eh. I don't know that I need to watch that. May rewatch Farscape instead.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Well, get the FUCK out: there's going to be a second season of Good Omens!!! [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have such mixed feelings about the Good Omens S2 announcement, but I'm already pretty good at compartmentalizing the bits of S1 I love from the bits that were crap, so...probably it will be okay?

May rewatch Farscape instead.

Obviously I recommend this strategy.

If Neil Gaiman weren't going to be a showrunner again (and obviously if he weren't going to write it), I'd have huge reservations about it. But he is, so I'm good with it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It sounds like it's going to be focused on the angels so more love and less crap is what I'm hoping for. Amazed and cautiously very excited, is what I'm saying

Gaiman's blog post about it is charming and makes me feel pretty good about the whole thing: [link]

Our wings are not tired.

I am officially excited. I forwarded the blog link to my son who is a huge fan as well.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Why did none of you people tell me that John Finnemore is co-writing GO2?

I am...cautiously optimistic?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm looking forward to GO2. Even if it's just half as good as GO1, it'll still be better than a number of things I could put in front of my eyes.
