I have never ever watched the Jersey Shore, it just doesn't appeal to me, I can't relate. I am one of those people that really get obsessed with programs like X-Files, Friends, Big Bang Theory, Tudors, etc. It is certainly up my alley. Thanks for convincing me to watch it.

Since I just finished Orphan Black (), I've started Peaky Blinders and I realllly like it, leading man aside (I mean he's great and all but for obvious reasons)

Elementary is definitely one of my goto shows. Now that House is gone John Lee Miller is the next best thing. And his chemistry with Lucy Liu is great. It's not easy being a great straight man but she pulls it off. And she's a hot Asian, so bonus points.

I've been on a sci-fi kick.

I'm planning to watch Babylon 5. Actually I've been planning for at least a year. I started than I quit, just couldn't get into it. Then I remembered I've never watched Deep Space Nine when it aired (I tried), and then...why not just go through the whole Star Trek franchise.

So I rewatched The Next Generation, as I remember really loving it as a teenager. And it holds up great. Some great stories, concepts, some cheese, all in all I still love it. Favorite episode: The Measure of a Man (HM: The Offspring) - yeah I like stories about AI.

Then I went back to 23. century, cause I forgot most of The Original Series, in fact I don't think I ever watched it all, and I think I used to mix some episodes with TNG. If TNG had good with sci-fi concepts, TOS was a great adventure. Lots of weirdness, mystery, fun. Third season had many bad episodes, but often it was entertaining. The first season is the best. Favorite episode: The City on the Edge of Forever (HM: Where No Man Has Gone Before)

Deep Space Nine was a change of pace, but this time I was immersed, and it's a very good series. I usually don't care that much about politics and character drama in sci-fi, but it worked well in this concept. This one was more serialised, but not completely. Favorite episode: In the Pale Moonlight

I heard that Voyager is kinda bad, and with low expectations I was pleasantly surprised. It's not as good as TNG, and DS9 is certainly better written, but Voyager had its moments, some fun characters and stories. Although it had a tendency to go overboard (and suffocate) with many elements I loved in TNG: The Borg, Time travel/time anomalies, non-human (or half-human) characters searching for humanity etc. It lacked subtlety. Favorite episode: hmmm...Scorpion

And in the end Enterprise I liked the least, but I must say 3. and especially 4. season were very good. It had some unnecessary continuity problems that I managed to not let bother me. I think this series would have benefited from DS9 treatment, more serialisation. Still, an enjoyable experience (except for the opening song, ugh). Favorite episode: I don't know, maybe Demons/Terra Prime

So I managed to finish the whole Star Trek series this year, and all the movies ( am I a trekkie now?)

Now on to the Babylon 5

Yes! But since I legally changed my name to Hermione (long story) I didn't want to have it as my username, lol. But you can obviously still call me Hermione.
