HIMYM-
REBECCA--I can't quit this show. It's like a friend that you hang out with that you don't really like, but every now and then you have fun and remember the good times. But to be fair this season has been better than last couple seasons. They need to get rid of the laugh track and the over acting. The best episode of the season was the ashtray episode and Robin being super drunk/slutty
Grade this season--C+
LEAH --I’ve invested too much into this show to not stick around and find out who the mother is. Ted has been sad and mopey lately and I don’t care at all about Marshall and Lilly’s baby. What happened to them? They used to be the best couple on tv (now it’s Jane and Brad from Happy Endings, which is funny because that show also has the absolute worst couple on tv, Alex and Dave). This show feels like a chore to watch but I’ll stick around. Robyn’s back to being awful, Barney’s not funny anymore Typing this makes me wonder why I’m still watching. I feel like I laughed at some point during this week’s episode but I can’t remember when.
Grade this season--C-
The Following-
REBECCA--This show is stupid. But I can't stop watching it. Leah watched the first episode and cried and couldn't sleep that night. So she is out. I don’t know how they are going to keep this show going.
Grade this season--C
LEAH -- Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek. I had to call in sick to work after I watched the first episode of this because I couldn’t sleep. Even Kevin Hotass Bacon couldn’t bring me back.
Grade this season-- I’m afraid to give it a grade or someone will convince me to poke my own eyeballs out with a screwdriver.
New Girl-
REBECCA-New Girl was SO solid last season, I was NOT going to watch it because the word “adorkable” makes me want to stab someone. This season has had a bunch of terrible episodes, including the one I’m watching right now (First Date) Jess and Nick together...I’m not sure.
Grade this season--B
LEAH --I think New Girl had a couple of good episodes this season. It was rocky for a while but I still really dig this show. We need more Winston. Nick and Jess screaming at each other gets me every time - hilarious. And I want to be friends with Schmidt too.
Grade this season--B+
Go On-
REBECCA-All I can say about Go On is that it is pretty cute. The characters are all quirky (hate that word) and fun to watch. Matthew Perry=Michael Cera, he can only play one character. My only complaint is that this show’s main plot, Matthew Perry’s wife had died has kinda come to a close, they need a new over-arching plot. Oh and what's up John Cho.
Grade this season--B-
LEAH -- I don’t watch this but I’d like to.
Mindy Project-
REBECCA-This show is stupid, but I watch it every week. I enjoy it just enough to keep watching. Morgan the male nurse is the best part.
Grade this season--D
LEAH -- I don’t watch this and I don’t want to. I love Mindy from The Office and from her book, I just couldn’t get into this show. I still hope it does well though.
Modern Family-
REBECCA-Eh. Manny is the worst character on TV, when did he get SO annoying??? This show has peaked and is on it’s way down.
Grade this season--C+
LEAH -- I like this show a lot still. I love Luke - he’s a genius in real life. Hilarious. I hated Phil when this show first started but I love him now. The end of last week’s episode with Luke teaching Mitch how to play handball was great. I’ll keep this one in the rotation throughout it’s run, I’m sure.
Grade this season--B+
Parks and Rec-
REBECCA-Best show on TV right now. The last 2 seasons have been so funny. The best episode of the season was when Ron, Andy and Ben end up with food poisoning from the mini calzones.
Grade this season--A
LEAH -- I vow to watch this in its entirety over the summer.
The Office
REBECCA-This has been a great final season, I am going to be really sad to see it go. The writers should have left Andy off the rest of the season-he has been by far the worst part. When Pam and Jim got into a fight on the phone I couldn’t believe how sad it made me. Anyone who says that this show stopped being funny when Michael Scott left is completely wrong.
Grade this season--B+
LEAH -- This season has really been a redemption for The Office. I felt like I was sticking around just out of nostalgia but it’s been so great this year. Rebecca hates people who drop a show and then tune in for the series finale and this show is making me agree with her. I think the guy who records Pam is hot, too.
Grade this season--A-
Vampire Diaries
REBECCA-I’m really torn how I feel about VD right now. It’s been good, but Vampire Diaries has been SOOO good for so long that this season feels like a let down. This Silas/the cure plot line is taking too much time and I’m bored with it. The show doesn’t make me feel anything for Elena except disgust. The writers need to give her something to make her likable again. I can’t see this show lasting more than another season, which at this point I would be sad but happy that it went out on top. Klaus and Caroline need to hook it up.
Grade this season--B
LEAH -- I’ve been reading comments online and everyone wants Elena to die. Not vampire die, actually die. I have to agree. She sucks all the life out of the show and her fake “I’m a badass” routine isn’t convincing anyone. Weak Damon is as stupid as Cruel Stefan is awesome. I agree about Klaus and Caroline, and I’m intrigued/annoyed about The Originals spinoff. I mean it’s the CW, of course I’ll watch it. At this point that family is more interesting than Mystic Falls. EXCEPT prom is coming up. Yay, more galas in MF. About time.
Grade this season-- A because I love this show so much, but in reality probably a B
Community
REBECCA-I will never say anything bad about Community. I love this show more than I love most people. I was worried at the beginning of the season but it has started to feel like the Community I love again.
Grade this season--A-
LEAH -- People who are ripping on Community don’t understand October 19. I would give a limb to be on Troy & Abed in the Mooorning - NIGHTS. I want Britta and Jeff to end up together.
Grade this season-- Always A. I can’t help it.
Revenge
REBECCA- Last season I was EXCITED to watch this show on mondays, not so much any more.Needs more Revenge and less soapy plots, I need some lives ruined! Oh and less Padma.
Grade this season--B-
LEAH -- I love this show and I love texting Rebecca while I’m watching it, whether she’s seen it yet or not. We should do another live blog. I agree that there needs to be more rage-fueled but meticulously-planned vengeance. I was surprised how legitimately sad I was when Amanda died. Nolan is the best, where can we pick up a buddy like that? Padma is stupid.
Grade this season--B but I have high hopes that it will end as an A.
Switched at Birth
Leah -- I love this show. It’s silly and a little church-y, but I am a complete sucker for ABC Family and this one I like. I’m keeping it.
Grade this season - B+
REBECCA-Okay I have never seen this show, but from looking at that picutre COME ON! OF COURSE YOU HAVE THE WRONG KID.
Game of Thrones
REBECCA-Only been one episode but once again, I know more about the characters on this show than I do about my friends. The books are so good there is no way this show can be anything but amazing.
Leah - Always A. Anything GOT (except Theon except when his sister is calling him a cunt) = A. (Also Rebecca “knows more” than she does about her friends? Ha! We CARE MORE about these fictional characters than we do about most live people, to be fair.)
Gossip Girl
Leah---this needed to end and it did. We both miss it but only because the last few episodes were really good.
Grade this season - B
REBECCA- I miss this show.
Shows that we stopped watching because it started to feel like homework--
90210
REBECCA--I stuck with this show through some terrible plots, but after Max and Naomi got a divorce after being married 5 episodes I was done
LEAH -- This show was never good. I’m surprised we lasted as long as we did.
Carrie Diaries
REBECCA--BORING
LEAH -- couldn’t care less
The Lying Game
REBECCA--this show was great the first season, but then nothing was happening for the second and I got annoyed because it didn’t make any sense what was going on.
LEAH -- this show was a guilty pleasure but Leah’s right, it just stalled. When you haven’t seen something in a month and you don’t care, it’s time to let it go.
Leah--We’ll update in a few weeks with our summer plans!
Rebecca--Anime convention in a few weeks! I'll post pics of costumes then!
