multipurposegoddessThis is the level at which I can plan: figuring out what TV shows I can watch and which will have to wait a long long time. I finished out the season V, which was kind of perfect because I already didn't care about it, but it occasionally held my interest a little. And I've been watching a lot of Nova, which works pretty well if I pause it when I get distracted and come back to it later and often has pretty pictures. Working on Stargate Universe, which I don't much care about but, I don't know, maybe it will get better. Also working my way through Avatar: the Last Airbender, which is great and the episodes are short and simple enough that I can follow them fairly well. I'm most of the way through the first book/season and just love it so far. H and I had watched a few together, but it's not so laden with memories that it's hard to watch.
I'm thinking I might try the Daily Show and Colbert, soon, but I've been avoiding the news very successfully and I'm afraid that even fake news may be more engagement with the world than I am really ready for.
Doctor Who is going to be tough to get back to. I think I'll be able to manage Burn Notice before too long, I watched the first season without H, though if they start killing characters I might have a problem. Mythbusters should probably be okay. Glee, I don't know,it seems like it should be okay but it's a lot of drama. i'm finding my emotional reactions to Avatar, for example, to be far stronger than normal (like, I will involuntarily cry out and tell the TV what had better not happen, which I can normally keep inside my head at least). Justified will be hard because H really liked it. Saving Grace has the not caring about it going for it, but it is still emotionally involving, I think. Breaking Bad and Treme I will watch some day but it will probably be a long long time from now, but I can't just delete them off the DVR, either. Flashforward has the potential to kill characters I like and Henry liked it. Parenthood, again, one of his favorites and all I have to watch is the season finale which I expect to be emotionally wrenching. A whole bunch of Akira Kurosawa movies, which, I don't know, might be okay but I feel like I should pay attention when I watch them, more so than I can right now. Wonderland, the last two episodes, which is tough to watch under the best of circumstances. The Prisoner I think I can manage, maybe that will be up next when I finish one of my current standbys.
And then there's True Blood starting tonight. I might need more time before I'm ready for vampires. Not something I ever thought I'd say, but, yeah, that whole dead boyfriend thing, I think it might be a problem for me. Perhaps surprisingly, Drop Dead Diva is fine - it's so light the dead part hasn't pinged me at all. And Lie to Me has been okay so far. Shouldn't be too much trying to fill up my DVR over the summer, maybe I can clear it out a little.
