The Blogification Of My Fandom Fixations
Catch-Up posts are for the interims, when I’m mid-watch and can’t fully comment on the fixation. They’re an update, brief and pleasant. The foreshadowing of posts potentially to come.
It’s been a slow week. I have stuff lined up to write, stuff I want to watch, stuff I need to watch… and none of it feels right at the moment. None of it is hitting that spot, ya know?
So, where do we turn? Somewhere new and classic all at the same time.
Happy New Year, guys! I hope you had a good holidays and will have a good New Year.
We are starting the blog off strong this year with a brief look at the Christmas Specials, because to my disappointment I’ve not actually watched much of anything else since last I posted. So, into this we go!
Look, I cannot be deemed responsible for the Specials featuring David Tennant’s return to the role of The Doctor coming out at the same time I was trying to finish Blindspot. So, no, I did not finish Blindspot this past two weeks. I did, however, with unbelievable amounts of commitment, finally, much to some of my friends and family’s glee, catch up on, Doctor Who.
Look, It’s only been a week.
Yes, we’re still on Blindspot.
There was absolutely no way I was going to finish the over two full seasons worth of episodes I had to watch before I had to write another post. If I could hibernate and just watch episodes without ever having to leave my room or socialise, perhaps I could’ve, I, however, have stuff to do, unfortunately.
So, we’re trying something new. I know. Scary, but sometimes you have to mix things up.
The intent here? They’re still part of the FF post schedule, same tab, same category. The point is brevity. If it’s a new show, you’ll get the usual boring bits, and after that it’s just, as the name implies, a catch up. The explorations of a show to come when I’ve finished it.
So, let’s dive in.
