Other Feels:
Television (Not a full list of what I watch):
(If you love to talk television, hit me up on Twitter and we can share feels together!)
Arrow S4: Behind.
Awkward S5: Guilty pleasure, what can I say?
Big Brother Canada S4: Maddy is so stupid for that Loveita move oh my god (which I hope she comes back). I want Mitch to win because of ASAPScience on YouTube LOLOL.
Criminal Minds S11: Why are there so many diced onions sprinkled all over these Derek Morgan episodes…stop it.
Daredevil S1: Finally found the motivation to binge through the first season (I’m on episode 6?) but I dig it.
Faking It S2: Good on MTV for this show.
How To Get Away With Murder S2: I don’t even.
House of Cards S4: Ahhhhhh no time to binge S4 but I really thought they were going to end it on ep 52 because a deck of cards has 52 (4 x 13ep seasons).
iZombie S2: Sometimes I wonder where/how Liv gets her cooking inspiration…
Limitless S1: Behind.
Legends of Tomorrow S1: Not really going to give this a chance.
Lucifer S1: Behind.
Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD S3: Marvel-y stuff is marvelous.
Orphan Black S4: CLONE CLUB SQUAD UP FOR THE RETURN.
Quantico S1: Paranoia is fine but am I the only one who thinks Alex is getting increasingly annoying?
Reign S3: Surprised this got renewed tbh.
Shadowhunters S1: Still hilari-bad
Suits S5: Someone hold me.
The Bachelor S20: lol.
The 100 S3: Last episode I saw was that “controversial death”. I’ll catch up in soon time.
The Blacklist S3: Excited for this to return in April.
The Flash S2: Behind.
The Magicians S1: I can’t speak to the direction but I love the lackadaisical-yet-dark tone this series tackles.
The Vampire Diaries S7: Probably behind.
Top Chef S13: Dislike the winner.
Films:
Deadpool: It was good. Not my favourite movie but stylistically really well done.
Mockingjay Pt. 2: I went in knowing who was going to die because fuck you Tumblr…but what the hell was that zombie nonsense though…
Music:
(Maroon bolded names link to the track for easy peasy listening)
EDM/Pop:
Martin Garrix (feat. John and Michel) – Now That I Found You: Literally on repeat — it’s probably on repeat because it gives off Frozen’s Let It Go vibes in the opening instrumentation forreals.
Steve Aoki & Felix Jaehn (feat. Adam Lambert) – Can’t Go Home: Passable.
Afterthoughts:
What a shitty, shitty blogging month.
Cheers,
Joey

You’ll catch up to The 100 just to get to the next controversial death. Those just keep happening one after the other.
Plus, I always wondered the same about Liv …

At least the show is wiling to cut off the legs of certain ships. I’m okay with that.

But it reeks havoc with ships that I don’t want to be messed with and that makes me sad.

I am so behind on my TV shows cause after watching the brilliant Mr. Robot and The Night Manager I have no desire to start a new series. I’ve still not mustered the courage to start Daredevil season 2. My binge sesh mode has gone silent. I need motivation haha.

Easy answer; stop reading. Boom. You’ve entered my world.

Although I have to admit the last season wasn’t really up to par with the earlier seasons, hopefully season 4 will go back to its roots

THAT’S WHAT THE PRODUCERS/ACTORS SAID. That it’ll feel like the high-adrenaline rush of the first season (re unknowns and the excitement). But anytime there’s a new clone awwwyaaa.
We don’t talk about last season because….p-p-paul *cries*.

I’m also so behind on my tv shows… it’s probably because I watch them in english on my computer… and now when I’m on my computer, I tend to do more blogging stuff…

I was really excited about Legends of Tomorrow when I saw the trailer, but the fact that it hasn’t gotten good reviews doesn’t really make me excited for it. I’m so glad you finally joined us in watching Daredevil! It’s so darn addictive. YESSSS THAT ZOMBIE CRAP I ranted about in my Mockingjay review lol!
