#a 30 year old tv show

[spuffybot]

Not me realizing that in 2027 kids watching Buffy is going to be like me watching The Addams Family, I Dream of Jeannie, and Bewitched when I was growing up.

#help I’m old and I can’t get up #this does not compute #30 years #buffy the vampire slayer #btvs #buffy #buffy summers #vampire #tv shows #old tv show #I can’t believe this is real

Sometimes I find myself pining for the days of forums and LiveJournal only because it's so hard to find communities these days. So many people have moved into private Discords that when a new hyperfixation hits, finding my people requires a Victorian era style expedition with tents, attendants, and backpacks full of equipment in the hopes I can locate the lost tribe of Vulcan/Romulan fuckers.

Hey guys! I know it's been a while, and although both Alex and I have no plans to continue this page at the moment, we wanted to give you an update.

Ultimately: We are both still alive and just fine.

However, I do have a favor to ask you guys, if anyone can! I know some of you are super excited for the new HBO HP series, some unsure, and some don't want it at all. I am excited, possibly too excited. I want to know how I can get involved with the show, and am wondering if anyone who still pays attention to this blog knows a guy. I even already wrote a pilot episode because I'm just crazy like that.

It never hurts to ask, right?

#hp #harry potter #hbo harry potter #harry potter writing #ravenclaw ravings #seriously guys #I really want to be involved #my literal dream would be to be a writer on the show #I found out there was going to be a tv show and started thinking of all the things you could do for the shows #actually have James and Lily as 21 year olds! #Snape and Lupin as men in their 30s #harry with actually messy hair #ginny as the true badass she is #neville as the possible other chosen one #i have so many ideas #so many possibilities #but only for now #only before they make it #and I have so many ideas #please help? #please?

just watched the halftime show, and i really hope some of you realize just how massively stupid you sounded when you were talking crazy out the side of your neck about THEE usher raymond iv 🥴

#all these out of pocket comments i saw on twitter and tiktok... #y'all were really acting like jungkook did usher a FAVOR collabing with him #some of y'all are clearly wayyyy too young to be allowed a social media platform where you can open your mouth and spread your stupid #HE'S A LEGEND. #literally how many times has jimin mentioned usher in interviews? that's because he's one of THEIR idols #and rightfully so #THEY watched HIM on tv. just like me #THEY grew up singing HIS songs. just like me #usher hopping on standing next to you is crazyyyyy and really elevates jk by introducing his talent to a fandom that is 30 years deep #like bffr lmao #mine #sorry i was pissed when i first saw those comments and the halftime show just reminded me and now i'm pissed again 🤣 #really got me acting like a crotchety old lady yelling about these damn kids lmao #but i can't help it!!! THE IGNORANCE. IT INFURIATES ME. 😂😂😂

it's always so scary when you dump your heart and soul into a chapter and think "hehehehe my audience is going to think I'm so clever and they'll love this!" and you genuinely had a great time writing it so you finally put the chapter out into the world and it's like *refresh* *refresh* *refresh* (repeat x3 days) and that inbox number for comments just stays 0.

#HEY THIS ISN'T TO GUILT ANYONE BTW #I just thought other authors would relate #I understand leaving comments can be really scary and sometimes emotionally draining #this isn't about that #I understand #but it's just scary when even your comment regulars don't show up to a chapter you thought was wonderful #and you stop and think 'shit what did I do wrong. What's not working?' #but you can't know because people won't tell you #anyway the point is: #My lovely audience who reads this blog I love you this isn't about you this is for other authors who can relate #and I also don't want to hear 'but you should be writing for yourself!!!' #because guess what? #I wouldn't be writing agere fanfiction about Loki Laufeyson over a year after the tv show came out if I was doing it for numbers!! #I wouldn't be writing about Sylvie being four years old and a horrible little gremlin girl if I was doing this for numbers #I wouldn't have 50 chapters in one fic + 30 between the other two planned if it was for numbers #all I'm saying is that this fic has good subs an ok kudo ratio and a good number of bookmarks but just... no comments on new chapters #and it's like 'ok shit what am I doing wrong? What do people want to see?' #goat talk #ao3 writer #vent #rant

That newest episode of The Last of Us was something else. I was wondering how they were going to expand out the events into a season without putting mindless crap filler in it. But if that's the quality of the extended material going in. I am fucking extremely happy.

Update: Ok fuck, I wrote that first part before the Wedding day. I am in fucking tears. Christ... That hurt so much to watch.

#The last of Us #last of us show #last of us tv show #Christ it was powerful but also really sad #Taht was probably the best depication of a LGBT couple in movie/show I have seen in a long time. #Don't mind me though. I feel a little unqualified to be a expert on that though. #Christ that wedding day bit. Making a stupid 30+ year old adult man fucking cry like a baby... you bastards.

Old Valentine’s Day art.

#obsidian #red beryl #houseki no kuni #land of the lustrous #old art #I was watching Valentine's Day Simpsons episodes with my wife #and I couldn't resist #drawing your otp for Valentine's Day is too predictable #drawing some minor characters with no ship evidence based on a still frame from a 30+ year old tv show is the way to go #obviously

Life in my brain is a hellscape of "man i have no idea what this word means but i'm just gonna keep pretending i do because googling is cheating"

#ooc ;; pterodolphin has no devil fruit #this is why i don't know anythin- #also because as a child i watched a total of 6 movies on repeat and i never saw anything else- #i could list those movies. #independence day; men in black; monsters vs aliens; httyd; sandlot; and the dark crystal #KDJDJDJFNDNFJSJRJJSJRJSJE #oh wait seven #my fuckin dad was obsessed with Taken. so i saw taken as a like fuckin 5 year old and have seen it probably 30+ times #the insides of my brain are fucking EMPTY #but hey at least the variety of tv shows i watched was more varied. kinda. sorta. a little. kinda-

the premise of "avatar day" is very similar to this one ds9 episode where jadzia dax agrees to fulfill a klingon blood oath sworn by a past host and now i'm kinda wondering how aang would handle it if being accountable for his past lives' actions was like That. like obviously he is fully capable of saying No to murdering as part of his avatar duties no matter how much his past lives agree to it but the blood oath was about helping to avenge a personal loss, it wasn't about the state of the world or whatever. and even though kor let jadzia out of the blood oath (since technically she wasn't the one to make it) she agreed to do it, which to me feels similar to aang choosing to stand trial for kyoshi's crimes. like aang & co could've just skipped town like "well it was a past life so you're not accountable" but aang felt compelled to take responsibility for his past life's actions the same way jadzia did.

of course, there's a big difference in that jadzia has the memories of her past life and remembers the loss her past host swore to avenge. a similar situation would not feel as personal to aang bc he wouldn't remember it. but aang does feel this sense of responsibility to his past lives, feels a lot of guilt for his 100 year coma and all the things he didn't do. there's definitely a possibility that he'd come on the journey because he made a promise, and i think he might try to respect another culture's beliefs about murder even they are not his own.

ultimately, though, i think it might end the same way:

She hesitates, and meanwhile Kang stabs his knife into the Albino's back.

On the surface, he thanks Dax for the act of friendship in "letting" him have the death blow, but the knowing eyes between long friends hints at the deeper reality: that Kang has saved Jadzia from being forced to make the decision to kill the Albino.

#i started making this post last night but i fell asleep partway through #also sorry for spoiling a nearly 30 year old tv show lol #anyways. i've always thought the southern raiders was the most star trek episode of atla bc it's the most 'exploring an ethical question' #but holmes cosplay and the same premise as a ds9 episode might make this the actual answer #atla daily blogging #nina's personal log #atla star trek

Suitcase is just better written Fluttershy honestly

#no insult to Flutters ofc #I'm just saying the Suitcase is better written cuz she doesn't have the restraints of being in an episodic network TV show for 7 year olds #that also has like 30 writers #it's just the nature of the shows and how much creative freedom they have #mlp #object posting #II suitcase #fluttershy

the character of radar o’reilly is sooooo funny to me. he is an 18 year old believably played by a balding 30 year old. he is accidentally one of the best portrayals of a trans man i've ever seen in a tv show. he is canonically psychic. don’t worry about it.

Actually so fucked up that the x files continues to be one of the few shows ive watched where the relationship between the male and female protagonists feel real to me. Like they arent just love interests from the get go. The romantic subtext isnt as important as their platonic relationship most of the time. Mulder is protective of scully because shes his friend. He checks in on her but it never feels like shes being belittled. She feels comfortable speaking her opinion without fearing that mulder will be condescending to her. Idk it just makes me feel safe to watch as a female viewer, knowing there is this respect between the main characters. That these characters actually care about each other. Very refreshing for a 30 year old tv show

#i hope i explained this right? i just feels like a lot of male protagonists have this vibe of wanting or needing something from the female #or the female character is straight up just a love interest or this poor baby that needs to be protected #or the opposite where the female character just wants something from the guy and diesnt actually care #and you're supposed to root for them but they clearly dont care about each other #im tired im sorry #x files #the x files #tv show writers please make your characters actually like each other
