Spent the morning watching season 2 of The Guild, and drinking out of the cup on the left. It felt apt, and it's one of my favourites. Then I saw the rose on the right, and took a picture of that too, because it was pretty. [click either to enlarge]

I gotta say, though, that for all that I like The Guild, I have to wonder when it became ok to portray child neglect bordering on abuse as something comedic? If spousal abuse was portrayed similarly that would never be acceptable.

What brought on the FD interests? And have you seen Dr. Horrible's Sing-along blog yet?

Yes, I was cruelly tricked into watching Dr. Horrible back when it first came out. I hated it! OMG! SHE FRICKIN DIES!! Which ruined any possible awesomeness that might have come before that. Joss Whedon is so not for me, and had I watched more of him, I'd know that, but since he's not for me, I don't watch his stuff, and had it once again reinforced that he SUCKS. For once I'm so glad that the network sat on a creator to have them change their artistic vision, which got me Firefly. So Whedon is in the shithouse twice over, Serenity and Dr. Horrible, and I will stay far far away from him for all times.
That said, I think The Guild is pretty funny. It's not super-amazing-awesome, but it's cute and funny and I very much enjoyed watching it. I'm hoping Felicia will not let me down, and keep the Whedon influences to a minimum.
