Ranting is Fun

Shows

Merry (late) Christmas!

So I hope you guys had a wonderful holiday, I know I did. And even though I'm very thankful for everything, I still have a maaaaaaaajor rant coming to you guys today.

So I have been watching some television lately. It's break, I didn't have any books to read before Christmas, and Netflix was just sitting on my phone, beckoning to me. So I decided to take a chance. I decided to start/continue some TV shows.

Worst. Decision. Ever.

I have watched a ridiculous amount of TV. It's horrible. And while netflix is commercial free (thank God) it's still terrible.

The specific shows in question? Doctor Who and How I Met Your Mother.

If you have watched these shows, you know why this is bad.

Starting with Doctor Who: I have watched 2 1/2 seasons in one week. One. Week. It's an addicting show.

It's also heartbreaking.

I literally cried at the end of season 2. I cried. Please note: I do not cry hardly at all.

[ROOOOOOSE]

And now I'm on season 3 and it's just... It's not fair.

I was warned. I knew what was coming. But I selected that first episode anyway.

And now for How I Met Your Mother.

This is no ordinary sitcom.

I have never watched and enjoyed a sitcom. Sure, I've enjoyed maybe one or two episodes of certain shows, but I always get tired of them. But HIMYM is so different and I love it so much.

I've only watched one season of this show over break, but I had watched 5 before that. I'm on season 7 right now, and I just want to say, TED HURRY UP WHO IS YOUR WIFE I NEED TO KNOOOOOW!

HIMYM also made me cry. During season 6. Marshall's dad. You know what I'm talking about if you've watched that far.

But the point to all of my ugly nerdy Fangirling is this: TV screenplay writers are demons.

I don't know how they live with themselves. Like, do they just think, oh, our audience could be happy? Nah, we can't have THAT.

Ugh.

The worst part is that there's some sick, twisted part of me that likes the torture.

I would appreciate any and every form of support after the conclusion of S2. I am still an emotional wreck.

Sorry for the very feels-y and fangirl-y rant, but I needed to say this crap. Badly.

Thanks for reading y'all✌️
