I'll tell you what's up, Jeff Winger. COMMUNITY IS BACK TONIGHT. Yessssss.

Also, I have some tiny picspams for you today:

I watched Cyrano Dating Agency and it was not exactly what I thought it was going to be. Just based on the synopsis and promo posters I thought it was going to be a light-hearted romantic comedy, but instead it was kind of a downer. I'll explain more after the cut:

For something that marketed itself as a romcom, there were few laughs to be had. I chuckled a bit at the team dressing their client up like Uhm Tae-woong's character since he had dated LMJ's character in the past. But I think that was it? I mean, throughout the entire movie we got to see flashbacks of UTW and LMJ meeting, clashing at first, but eventually falling in love. And then we get to see their relationship fall apart. So, that was a bummer. And I pretty much went in expecting they'd end up together, because there was all this talk about trust and how important it is. But then she ended up with Daniel Choi's character after going on like two dates just because he said he loved her?

The whole movie looked like it was shot through a sepia filter or something, which combined with the mellow pacing of the script and acting of the cast it was all very sleepy. It was as though it was constantly dawn or dusk and no one was quite awake.

So, I didn't like it. But, there were good things: Lee Min-jung is so freaking pretty and I think she's just a peach. ALSO, it turns out I don't have to avoid Park Shin-hye at all costs, because she isn't actually Go Mi Nam (You're Beautiful). So that's a relief.



Finally finished the last three episodes of Leverage. Good fun as always. Parker and Hardison are the best (Pretzels!). Though, as much as I love Eliot (and his hair), it can get a little tiresome when it becomes the Eliot Show. For example: THIS ENTIRE SCENE WAS RIDICULOUS.



In case you couldn't tell, that's Eliot sliding across a warehouse floor underneath a barrage of bullets courtesy of eight+ baddies. LOL, WHAT. Even for Eliot, that was... something else.

Oh, and I randomly watched Off The Map and I never need to do that again. Between the veteran doctors' holier-than-though behavior and the team nearly letting a guy bleed out on the operating table so he could propose to his girlfriend, I don't need to go back.

AND IT JUST WENT ON FOR FOREVER. Time, I might add, that could have been spent showing how the hell Parker and Hardison got away from the bomb they set off.

There were parts of Off the Map that were OK, like I thought the anaconda was neat, but I kind of wanted to bunch every single character in the face. They were all so freaking pissy. Like, DAMN. Why don't you start yelling at the drop of a hat, lady? Or be more dismissive of different cultures, guy. It was kind of ridiculous.

IKR! every time i thought "oh okay finally it's over" it just kept on going. wtf? idk why they thought this was a good idea (ok i can see the appeal of doing this burn notice like thing but it didn't work, imo). it just gave me secondhand embarrassment.

i've only seen the pilot and i wanted to stab everyone. why would you hire a bunch of doctors who have no knowledge of the language (because of it one patient almost died) and they are total ethnocentric assholes to boot. oh and saving people with fucking coconuts. ugh i hated everything about it and i didn't even go into it thinking i'd hate it.

EXACTLY. Sure, the newbs are morons, but who is the bigger moron for hiring people that know NOTHING about medical treatment out in the field? I don't know why they were all so pissed when they just set everyone up for failure.

I saw a few minutes of the pilot actually, enough to get to the point where the frat boy didn't know what "gringo" meant. WHO DOESN'T KNOW THAT?

This! I mean, wtf all these people are so incompetent. I feel bad for the people in that community who have to be treated by these dumbasses. It makes no sense. And I'm not even going to pretend I have taste cos I still watch Grey's Anatomy but jfc this show is just awful.

Lmao ikr. How did these people pass med school?
