I've spent a good part of the night catching up on "my" shows from the past week. Everything seems in order, I guess. I loved Journeyman, though I wouldn't have thought I wouldn't. That show is rapidly becoming my favourite. I'm totally in love with Kevin McKidd. What an amazing actor (not to mention the fact that he's extremely easy on the eyes). Speaking of my new obsession with him, I was always planning to start watching the series Rome, but I started watching earlier than I expected just because I found out he was in the show. It was/is a total fangirl moment. Anyway ....

Bionic Woman was good enough. It had enough of a mix of romantic/sexual tension, action and other character moments to keep me interested for the entire episode. Which is always a good thing.

Scrubs was funny, as always. I love how that show can mix the hilarious and the serious so seamlessly.

Watched Numb3rs again, love that show to pieces. Larry is the best character on television right now, IMO anyway. All in all I thought it was a pretty stellar episode. Though, I have to say, it was a little heavy on the making out between a certain couple. Enough already! We get it, they're close.

... And then there was Atlantis with Missing

I'm not really sure what I can say about this episode. It was better than I thought it was going to be. I'm not sure if that's saying much though because I had really really low expectations for it. So the fact that it surprised me doesn't necessarily mean that much. I will say that it was nice to see RL get the chance to carry an episode. She is a wonderful actress, who hasn't been getting as much quality screen time as she should have been getting. So that, I liked.

On another note, I'm trying very hard to like Keller. Though I'm afraid I'm not succeeding. Maybe in the end, my trying too hard is a lot of the problem. I look at the character and think "ok try not to think about the fact that it could be Carson in this scene instead of Keller," and instantly I'm screwed. All my good intentions go out the window. I really don't know what it is. There is nothing wrong with JS or her performance, in theory anyway. Though, in this episode, it did bother me a little bit that she was written a lot like Carson. Well, a very early first season Beckett anyway.

Oh well, I'll keep plugging away with my quest to really like the character. Hopefully sooner, rather than later, I'll succeed in it.

If I'm not mistaken, next is "The Seer." I'm not sure about my expectations for this episode, right down the middle, I think. You know, I've decide I'm just going to be happy and embrace this space (I'm going very zen about the whole thing). Atlantis isn't what it was, but that doesn't mean it's horrible. In fact, some of the new stuff has been pretty good, but at the same time I really dislike a lot of the changes and it infuriates me to no end. I think this is what it means to be ambivalent. Stuck right in the middle, between two very different points of view, or ways of feeling. Not to beat the point to death but this thing with the show is definitely characterized by an "inability to make a choice or by a simultaneous desire to say or do two opposite or conflicting things." Yup, that most definitely sums it up.

Cheers!
