slightly silly: riverdale, episode 17: the town that dreaded sundown

things get even darker in the latest episode of riverdale. with the north and south sides of the town ready to go to battle with each other. and everyone afraid of the things that go bump in the night.

archie's fear has shifted to anger. and now he wants revenge. and he's not afraid to push things as far as he can. he wants to be the black hood's next target. he wants to face the man in his nightmares and conquer him once and for all. archie is still not quite in his right mind, and one thing this town could probably use is a licenced psychiatrist. if you think about it, archie has been sexually abused, nearly killed more than once and his parents are separated but not actually divorced? there is no better candidate for therapy than archie andrews.

veronica stands by her man, even as her parents scheme and plot their way around her as they try to force a break up. whatever is going on in the lodge's marriage is nothing good. honestly, none of these kids have parents with a traditional relationship where there is a two parent household with minimal strife. betty and veronica's parents are the most traditional, but there are some messed up vibes between those parents, they tend to look at each other like they want to kill their partnet. it's crazy.

anyway. jughead and betty are starting to feel the north side and south side tension. any minute now i expect them to bust out into songs from west side story. it's stereotypical, but it's also highly stylized and the visuals and atmosphere on this show continues to be the best.

simply catching up on all things general hospital

hmmm, it's been months since i've blogged about gh . partly this is due to the fact that i fell behind while i was traveling. partly because all the outrage lapsed into disinterest when i realized i couldn't bring myself to care anymore and everything that was happening was just so trite and boring. some days i still feel that way. and there are still whole storylines that i either hate or just fast forward through. but there are some good things too. in no particular order, here are my thoughts on the goings-on in port charles: 1. soras [and why re-casting roles works on soaps even if you do miss the original actors]: the new, older versions of sonny's kids are turning out to be quite enjoyable. [although hilariously, cameron whom i believe is older than molly is now younger. and because cameron is so cute, i'm kind of hoping they won't fix that. we also haven't seen spencer in ages, so he may be approaching 50.] in any case, at this point we've only s

genre debate: urban fantasy versus epic fantasy: team epic gets their say

Team Epic: Why I Love Epic Fantasy! Since it's my blog, I'll go first: Epic fantasies take you on quests that take you beyond the limits of what is real.
