Still Nameless Feature: There's Probably Hope Somewhere

[helloladies]

At the end of every week, we gather at Lady Business HQ to share media thoughts and chat about the recent happenings in our tiny spheres of human experience. Feel free to join in, but note our comment policy if you're new! :D

As always, puns are welcome.

This week was so terrible that there are no words for it. Have a blanket fort.



We've discussed names like Chaturday, Business Casual, The Water Trough, and Ponies Express. Clearly we can use some help and would appreciate your suggestions (feel free to vote in the comments, too)!

It's been such a hard week - I have been cushioned from a lot of it because my prac in the maternity ward kind of lends itself to being another world almost. And it's still an intense one especially emotionally. So no heavy content at all, fluff. I'm starting 'Gilmore Girls' for the first time and am enjoying it a lot. I'm also playing a lot of 'Star Chef' on my phone because it's cute :P

Not much else. Today was really relaxing and lovely, my first day of a break between prac and classes returning and oh I need this break. I need to recover in a huge way. So today I slept in, my lovely partner made me coffee, it was a totally relaxing day. I cooked easy dinner that was easy like cheating but was tasty. I watched more 'Gilmore Girls', I played my silly app game, and I watched both 'Speed Racer' and 'Van Wilder: Party Liaison' both of which I love, but totally appreciate that both are definitely not without issues (especially the latter movie, it's a guilty pleasure, although I now think Reynolds was so much funnier in 'Deadpool'. Anyway, both were lighthearted and about making the world a better place in their own way which worked for me today.

A few people have recced my Speed Racer but I was never sure if it was my bag. This comment is making me think I might like it!

There was an awesome Tor review of it just recently that I think will absolutely sell you on it - like I had to rewatch it because of the write up :P

[spindizzy]

I seem to recall it being TRIPPY AS BALLS and also maybe there's a monkey? But I am genuinely not sure I didn't hallucinate for an hour and a half, so I might be thinking of the wrong movie.

Gilmore Girls! I adore that show. It makes great TV comfort food for sure. How far along are you? I'm super excited for the continuation movies.

[transcendancing]

I'm only part way through S1 so far so right at the beginning. But! The continuation movies are definitely one of the reasons I'm doing my watch now :)

Also related, must rewatch Veronica Mars so that I can watch S3 and the movie.

I saw a gif from the VM film the other day and was like 'totally forgot this happened, must rewatch'. It's sooo goooood!

Also, have you tried iZombie? It's got similar whip-smart lines (although I don't think it's as clever as VM).

[transcendancing]

I have heard iZombie is great but I have this irrational thing against almost every zombie ever. There are so far 2 exceptions - a short story called 'The Memory of Breathing' by Lyn Battersby and the ridiculous game 'Plants vs Zombies' and then I get stuck at my non-zombie barricade. I don't even know why I dislike them so much but I somehow reaaaaalllly do. Is it a show where I can forget they're zombies by any chance? It's been rec'd to me so many times!

[bookgazing]

Many of the zombies get fake tans so they can avoid detection if that helps (not Luv though, she rocks zombie hair). So they just look & act like regular people (bar the necessary brain eating). It's really a 'monster of the week' cop show with psychic visions & a long running plot about paying bad guys for brains.

[transcendancing]

Well, it definitely looks like it's possible to get past my barricade. Maybe it will be something my partners like and it can be on our dinner watching menu (finding things all 3 of us agree on is hard) :P

My housemate has been watching iZombie and I have been mostly ignoring it, but I am desperate for Liv to get together with the police officer, and someone needs to make-out with the mortician because he is SUPER APPEALING.
