hmmm

PICKING UP NEW LAPTOP THIS AFTERNOON. HURRAH.

Meanwhile:

[Poll #725928]

The only thing keeping me from clicking is the vague hope that someday, someday, I will get to watch this show that my entire flist flails about so often. And the vague fear that any spoilers will be so scarring as to ruin the experience for me.

But that's currently losing out to my immediate curiosity, which is a FORCE OF NATURE.

Omg, this song! I haven't heard it for ages, and now I am dancing in my chair because I love it so much.

Just stay all through the night
In the morning let me down
'Cause that's all that I need right now

Yes! You should download the pilot and see if you like it!

Can't download things :( Internet slows down and then freezes for any file larger than about five minutes' worth of video. Believe me, if I could dl episodes of things I would not spend so much of my time bitching about all the television that I'll never get to see unless I buy the DVDs.

HMMMM. We shall see, then!

*EYES BACK*

This is why your beautiful community has been driving me wild, because omg Utena! Comics! Things!

Even if my Internet DID behave itself, I can only dl things after midnight because I have no limit on offpeak downloads. And I go to BED before midnight, or else I die of tired.

C'est la vie, etc. Clearly I should move to America where I can just watch these things on TV like a normal person.

If you want to watch unspoiled -- and believe me, it's often really fun with a show like VM -- you could save the posts without reading under a category like "After VM," which is what I'm doing (haven't caught up to the end of s2 yet).

See, I need to hear things like this, because for some shows (*cough*JOSSIAN*cough*) the twists come out of left field and whack you across the face and it's just no fun if you've been spoilered. But for others, it's the execution that's the fun part and knowing bits of plot in advance doesn't really matter.

I'm assuming you'd put VMars in the first category, then.

It's on ten. Is there anything they HAVEN'T repeated to death.

It is not! They stopped it mid-season one!

[identity profile] kcdl.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I kind of assumed it was of those shows they were only ever going to show in silly season. Seeing as I've never watched it I didn't pay much attention to when it was taken off-air.

Why oh why do networks keep doing this?

No fucking idea. It pisses me off.

Admittedly I had kinda lost interest before then, but that is not the point! If they pull the same stunt with Supernatural, I'm damn well complaining.

O rly? :D

In what format? .avi or similar, readily-transferable-onto-external-hard-drive format?

[identity profile] rameshki.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 11:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, Xvid AVI format to be exact

Interested?

Certainly! Thank you! I can pay for blank DVDs if you have the ability to put the episodes onto them as data files.

Email me - fahye at livejournal dot com - with what you think the best arrangement would be?
