Rewatched Hayao Miyazaki’s CASTLE IN THE SKY last night for the umpteenth time. Still a masterpiece.
Greetings from my hovel on the shores of the Bow.
I started watching season 5 of Community yesterday. I was an enormous fan of the first 3 seasons of Community. It was a perfect blend of the kind of absurd/surrealist stuff I like with a lot of great pop-culture parody/reference that I also am a sucker for. Community did this blend better than most other shows and the cast was funny and charming. I quit watching in season 4 when they fired Dan Harmon, the creator. I have no idea if it’s good (though I suspect it’s “fine” but not quite the same) because I didn’t feel right about watching it after he was fired. They brought him back for season 5 and 6 but by then I was out of the habit of watching it (and most other sitcoms come to think of it) so I never saw them.
The whole series was recently added to Netflix and friends have been talking about it so I put on the REPilot, season 5 premiere… It’s really funny. I’ll probably watch the rest. I’m glad. I don’t know how long it’ll take me to watch it all, lately I have barely watched ANY live-action television, but who knows. That’s the thing about having a defective brain, you never know where it’ll spin you next.
OH, I should probably mention the new episode of my podcast went out this morning. You can listen to it at http://www.brideofthecreature.com
