ultra_ficI don't know how it happened, but my latest TV show obsessions are actually current shows! This hasn't happened to me in such a long time. Generally, I pick up a show just as it ends or after its over and watch all the boxsets, but lately I've fallen for shows that are still airing! Here's the run-down...
Timeless - I know Season 1 is over in the US and just recently in the UK too, and there's no guarantee of renewal, but technically it is a current show and OMG it's SO GOOD! Loved the concept, loved the execution, love the actors, and the shallow part of me is salivating over Wyatt Logan every week! lol I really, really hope it gets a Season 2, not least because that last episode was such a cliffhanger!
Lethal Weapon - This one just finished in the US I think, and here in the UK we just had episode 5 of 18. I wasn't sure about it, because I'm not crazy about the movies but at the same time I like them enough that I wasn't sure they should be remade. Then came Clayne Crawford and his take on Martin Riggs. I love that guy. Can't help it, just do. Need to see more.
The Librarians - Unfortunately, I don't get the channel this airs on here in the UK so I have yet to see Season 3 which aired in the US in its entirety already; however, the DVDs will be available in a couple of weeks and I'm currently rewatching Season 2 to prepare me. I came for the Kane and stayed for everything else. Such an epic show!
Gilmore Girls - Yup, I'm counting this one. When I started watching this show, it was over. Seven seasons of boxset to enjoy, and enjoy I did, and then came the revival. Now this is technically a current show again, despite the fact I really did not enjoy A Year in the Life for the most part. It had so much potential and disappointed me so much, but man, I love me those 'classic' episodes from back in the day :)
Meanwhile, I have dropped two other current shows from my watching schedule - Once Upon A Time and The Big Bang Theory. I'm sorry but these two seem to have morphed into unrecognisable caracitures of their former awesome selves, and I'm afraid I'm done.

And yes, Wyatt is easy on the eyes...
But boy was that clifhanger mean ! Aaaargh !
