Who KNOWS how this stuff happens???

I posted a nice long list of Geeky shows I would like to watch, chose one that wasn't even on the list, and then ended up getting hooked on something COMPLETELY different.

Despite that, though, I'm really enjoying "Wolverine & The X-Men". Little over half-way through the 22-episode season and it's been a consistent blend of Movie and Comic Book X-Men. Like, they took all the GOOD stuff from both formats and crammed them in to one delicious Graham.

I'm loving it despite some pretty major plot-holes (If Prof. X can project his thoughts back in time to communicate with Wolverine AFTER the explosion, why not just go back a little further and say "Hey Wolverine! Big Explosion! Tell everybody to duck!")

And then after this? I think I'm gonna watch Avatar: The Last Airbender! Take THAT, carefelly-thought-out-list-of-things-I-wanted-to-watch!

You really do... it's got everything that an old-skool fan of the X-Men wants without all the silliness of the 90's X-Men cartoon series :)

Has to be watched in order... each episode is stand-alone, but just barely. They're definitely building, with story arcs and an even larger series arc.

Avatar is all kinds of love and goodness. It brings joy to my soul. The kind of joy that only fluffy kittens with balls of pink yarn can bring. Yeah, it's that seriously joyful :D

Seriously, I want to watch Avatar with you. It is a cartoon, so I'll bet Molly even digs it!

I'll try to get my computer non-bogged enough to burn it on to DVD :)
