So I guess I never actually posted the rest of my Robin Hood thoughts from my rewatch, I had a lot of s3 thoughts that I wrote about and finally here they are for you. As for writing...well I’m not really writing what I intended to write, but this was very effective at giving me Robin Hood (more accurately Guy and Guy/Marian) muses.

Also something I hadn’t thought when I wrote this up but have since, J’onn on Supergirl is Tuck, how did it take me so long to realize that, he’s a got a really distinctive voice? It was the voice that eventually made me realize it; I was thinking a few days back (long after finishing my RH watch and in a lull of Supergirl catching up) that I was having a surprisingly easy time hearing Tuck’s voice in a scene I was considering (never actually wrote it) and couldn’t figure out why until I realized it had very little to do with Tuck. Anyway, J’onn is much better than Tuck who spoiler I am not real nice to in this.

I'll warn you now, this is the last post that will be all full reviews, I ran out of steam to do full reactions later in the season.

So I decided to watch Robin Hood again, and because I’m feeling super lazy about it, opted to watch it on Netflix instead of getting out the DVDs. Now I’ve noticed watching a few other things on Netflix the last few months that they don’t always have captions I know should be there, but I think this might be the funniest one. Because they still have the sound effect of the thwacky establishing arrow, but not the location caption. So while *I* know what that sound effect is and in most cases understand what’s being established, I imagine it must seem odd if someone hasn’t watched it before.

Also, the fact that one of Netflix’s teaser images is a s3 promo shot including Kate and Tuck...not a great move, as I hate both of them.

I'm close to being done, for now another round of finished ones. (And a link to the main table in case you've missed it.)

Okay, another round of drabbles for the 100 drabbles of summer. I'm still working on the list, but I keep hoping getting some of them out there will motivate me. You can follow the progress on my main table if you want to.

I can’t decide if I want to review something tonight, but in honor of another 100 drabbles of summer round I thought I might actually post what I got done of last year’s challenge, which was a grand total of 8 drabbles (after I finished in 2011). I’m already further along than that for this year but wouldn’t give high odds of finishing; it’s very much a maybe. But obviously better than last time, even if so far it's pretty TVD heavy this round.

HOORAY, Community is back and it was great (hugs show). Except...really why is Chang still on this show? Everyone else should never leave us ever.

I’m finally caught up on The Office and I think it’s been going well this season and I’m curious to see how they plan to wrap it up, because even if I didn’t know this was the last season it’s pretty clear they’re in end game this year. I don’t necessarily have a lot to say but I wanted to throw that out there.

And TVD...you know I’m so checked out that I don’t even care. This show is dumb, and I could speculate about what some of it is leading to and point out that these people don’t know the meaning of “splitting up to search” but I’ve decided to embrace not caring anymore. Show, I cared about Robin Hood to the bitter end; it could piss me off with its bad decisions sometimes but it could still make me cry at some of its best ones, sometimes in the same episodes. I used to compare TVD to RH, but in the end it turns out it is no Robin Hood.

Okay, so besides needing something where the review is shorter, this is going to require some explanation that might as well go below the cut.
