If It Ain't Broke

Why? Why, why, why? You have a formula. You perfected it. So why is it that this season, you are messing with it? I watch Psych for its pure goofiness and occasional Shawn/Gus slashiness. You know what's not conducive to goofiness? Shawn's mother. And his father pining after her. And Lassiter pining after his ex-wife. And Shawn talking about the "one that got away." And shoving Shawn/Juliet down our throats. And a super OMG! SO DRAMATIC! season finale. No. Just, no. I can't say whether these episodes or good or bad, just that I tune in for one thing, and they're giving me something else. Next season better be friggin' hilarious, but I think I saw a little shark-jumping in season finale. *sob*

If Psych keeps going this way, I'll ditch it after Monk's final season. It's starting to waste my time.

House is trying to woo me back, though; little Cuddy/House crap, no baby drama, lots of House and Wilson (and screaming in the middle of the street like they're married). But Wilson disappeared halfway through and Cuddy stole what should have been his moment. They also missed yet another opportunity to carry over the issues they brought up in Birthmarks. Le sigh. Depending on how the rest of the season plays out, I may hold off on buying the DVD.

Of all the shows I'm watching, Nip/Tuck's having the best season. They're definitely handling Liz/Christian better than House is handling 13's bisexuality or House/Cuddy. I ordered the Japanese DVDs for Nip/Tuck's first season, so I could simultaneously study Japanese and enjoy the bromance :D

I checked out hulu.com, and started watching Firefly. I see why it has such a following - I'm already up to episode six. I heart Mal. "Morbid and creepifying, I'm okay with, long as she does it all quiet-like." XD

And I can't stop thinking about Dollhouse. It's trying to edge out Big Love as my new crack.

I agree with you about the season finale of Psych. The previous week's episode "Friday the 13th" was better; I wished that had been the season finale instead. The plot with Dr. Yang actually was kind of boring. I did like that Gus was in the car with Shawn and Abigail during their date, but that's it. It was a let-down especially for a season finale episode.

I liked this week's episode of House because it had lots of House/Wilson (I loved Wilson being jealous and House and Wilson arguing), but it would have been nice if Cuddy would have disappeared and let House and Wilson talk at the end. I don't think I'm going to buy this season – too much Huddy and not enough House/Wilson for my taste.

Did you see last night's Nip/Tuck? Even though I love Christian/Sean, they're definitely handling the Christian/Liz relationship better than Shore is handling House/Wilson. I can't wait for next week's episode! I wonder how Christian has found a way to live "forever."

I missed last week's episode of Dollhouse, but I plan on watching this week.
I haven't seen Big Love (I don't have HBO), but I heard it was good.

Boring, definitely. I was barely paying attention after a while. Gus's cockblock was pretty much the only winning moment. (Oh, crap. Does this mean we have to deal with a ~*~love triangle~*~ next season with Shawn, Girl I Don't Care About, and Juliet? Shoot me now.)

YES, I saw the new Nip/Tuck. With the, uh, furniture love. They keep making me squee over Christian/Sean ("I don't want to work with him. He's not you!") and Christian/Liz...if there were more chemistry between Sean and Liz, I'd be chanting OT3 right now. And at the same time - oh, Christian. He really, really is irrevocably damaged; he can't seem to treat women decently no matter what. And Shore should take notes on how Liz is written and apply them to Cuddy. (Oh no, I feel another post coming on.) Definitely looking forward to next week, though I can't believe it's the season finale already =(
