My second Buffy episode was Superstar. I win. (My first was Fear, Itself but since I started during a break the reruns weren't in order.)

My first (and only) episode of Game of Thrones was "The Rains of Castamere."
My first Buffy episode was Once More with Feeling at a convention. I then started watching wherever FX was in their reruns at the time (middle of Season 5, maybe?). I think I also jumped into wherever they were in Season 6 on broadcast. I know I for sure watched Season 7 live.
IIRC, Victor and Thessaly's first episode of Buffy was The Zeppo, which totally confused them. I honestly don't remember what my first episode was. I think my first episode may have been Tabula Rasa, and I thought Giles and Anya were a cute couple.
Am I the only one still watching Wheel of Time? I think it has steadily improved since the first season and really hoping they get picked up for more. I feel like the showrunners are doing a great job of modernizing the characters/relationships (OMG, so many conversations happening in this show to resolve things that would have dragged on forever in the books because no one seemed capable of talking to one another) and leaning into the queer subtext that was in the books and making it text.
They're also doing a fantastic job of humanizing multiple villains that were kind of one note in the books.
Plus you've got women of all ages being badass in various ways. Deciding to ditch the book concept of all Aes Sedai appearing ageless and just saying they age slower really opens up their casting. (Plus saves money on a bunch of CGI/makeup that would probably just end up looking uncanny valley anyway.)
Am I the only one still watching Wheel of Time?
I'm not watching it, but you're kind of selling me on it.
I am a big Rosamund Pike fan.
Rosamund Pike is fantastic. She's completely replaced the image of Moiraine I had in my head from the books. (She apparently does an amazing job with the audiobooks as well. So far she's recorded the first three. I'm not an audiobook person so I haven't heard them myself.)
I honestly love the whole cast. They're excellent and the people playing some of the bigger villains seem to be having the time of their lives.
WoT 3x6:
Oof. I had a bad feeling Alsera wasn't long for this world and I was unfortunately right.
Elayne learing a bawdy song without understanding what it means is so perfectly in-character for her that I loved that whole thing (Though I didn't get it at first, either.)
Man, The Pitt has everything
