Hi! My name is Rebecca and you might remember me from this very website, where I have been quietly expounding upon my lust and fanfic-esque fantasies involving the brothers Salvatore. How are you? It’s been a while! Me? Oh I’m okay. I’m on the first day of my period which is not awesome, but I [...]

Knee deep in summer movie releases this gem of an exchange came out between Scarlett Johansson and an interviewer who asked her, and only her, if there was any romance on the horizon for Black Widow in The Avengers. “She doesn’t have time for that,” Johansson crowed, “She’s got shit to avenge.” That’s exactly what [...]

How is it that one appearance by Elsbeth Tascioni has me nearly excited about The Good Wife again? It’s been a long slog lately. The Good Wife has always been a soft-spoken show full of simmering passions and enormous feelings left unsaid. Juliana Margulies has crafted a quiet and deeply internalized character and for the [...]

Oh you unmitigated bastards. I should have seen it coming. Belle finally gets developed as more than the slightly addle brained love interest of Rumple and you have to go and mind wipe her (permanently) and basically kill her off. So yes, you’re unmitigated bastards. On the bright side–if there is one–Belle was revealed to [...]

The curse is broken! A Grey’s wedding featuring Callie and Meredith managed to go ahead exactly as planned. I mean, yes there was a five hour delay and the bridesmaids all missed the wedding so they could cuddle with their respective boos but Bailey had drama, overcame her drama and then got hitched. And what [...]

Okay. My bad. It wasn’t until I was browsing my DVR and cueing up an episode of Adventure Time that I noticed we had a new episode of The Good Wife this week. Somehow it slipped straight past me. What’s worse, was even with notes and the episode fresh in my mind I’m having trouble [...]

The showrunners like to sum up Regina’s story arc as a tale of redemption. She, and really every villain has operated in shades of gray and black–the difference being that she desperately, desperately wants to be a white hat. She wants to be one of the good guys invited to a pot luck at the [...]

Television usually falls into three categories for me. The good stuff I watch and think about, the good/bad stuff I write about and the stuff that is awful and it’s awfulness is so distracting I’ll watch it just to rage about it. Chicago Fire is none of those things. It’s not offensive to the writer [...]

Recently, on a foray out to the movies, I was treated to an extended trailer for this season of TVD. I sighed towards the end and quietly said, “That is my favorite show,” to my movie companion who laughed. Then, he looked at my face, as silent and somber as the grave and went, “Oh [...]

Anxiety is like you’re stuck on a racetrack and you just have to keep going around and around with no word on when you get to stop. There’s no way off. There’s no pit crew. It’s just you in constant motion but seeing the same sites again and again–forcing yourself to know them so intimately [...]
