GG, Pushing Daisies and school
Oct. 23rd, 2007 03:03 pmI have my day off today from school, but as usual that doesn't mean I get to rest or do something fun (heaven forbid!). I've seen the latest Heroes episode which was... well, personally, it was good - the cast is amazing and always does a fantastic job so it can never be bad persay - but a bit disappointing because I had high hopes for this episode. Anyway, that wasn't spoilery was it? Felt a bit unnecessary to cut.
Is it wrong of me to think that Gossip Girl is one of the best new shows this season? I think the new episode airs today in Canada which means tomorrow - GOSSIP TIME! - but well... that was just a sidenote. Sticking to the topic. I mocked Gossip Girl first, with all the interviews and its cast, I secretly laughed every time I saw someone mentioning them. But I like the show. I think it was better and in a way more realistic than the OC or One Tree Hill. Well, season one of OTH was gold, then it was just crap. Pushing Daisies is good, but it feels a bit... I don't know.
Chuck's innocent attitude was adorable the first episode whereas she was close to annoying throughout the latest episode. Lee Pace is adorable as always and I think he and the PI do a fantastic job. But I don't know... it just seems like the colour's gone from the show a bit? Maybe it was just that one episode that I didn't like all too much.
Anyway, Gossip Girl might not be groundbreaking and some characters are extremely annoying (Jenny Humphrey, I'm talking to you) but some are absolute gold (Blair, Dan, Chuck) and those who aren't gold are at least acceptable (Nate, Serena).
Also, I love the clothes in that show ♥ And sort of how appearance seems to be the main theme throughout the show. Life isn't as... well, glamorous as in The OC because... well, in a way GG seems more grounded in real problems and real situations.
Anyway, I'll go and read the Tenant at Wildfell Hall or The Poisonwood Bible soon. School owns me. Sad but true.
