Surreal

Castle ended their season without a cliffhanger, so if they were to get cancelled I wouldn't really care. Where it ended was perfect (although a bit contrived). They could probably go on, but I haven't heard anything either way. Survivor seemed to be too perfect, which lends credence to the theory that it's either rigged or orchestrated somehow. I was only halfway paying attention, but there didn't seem to be a lot of equal coverage anywhere other than the jury and final three; this is why you need more time at the reunion show, especially if you're going to delve into topics that turn it into something like The Jerry Springer Show. Rodney wasn't called out for his negative comments but was instead rewarded with a cake since he didn't get anything good on his birthday. Life just isn't fair. Otherwise, I'm more or less pleased with the returning cast for next season.

The latest MLP comic was stupid beyond reason. I haven't seen anyone else review it yet, not even Sketchy, so I thought I'd vent about it a bit here. Everything was blown out of proportion and almost everyone was out of character. This shouldn't have even been an issue for a number of reasons, but the author threw reason out the window just so Ponyville could launch into a civil war. I'm not even kidding. Secession was mentioned. Twilight could've maybe left clearer instructions since this started out by the uncertainty of whether she'd meant Apple Bloom or Diamond Tiara to be the princess for a day, but then it stopped being about them and just turned into agriculture versus commerce. While running and hiding didn't solve anything, I think Fluttershy had the best character representation out of the mane six. Everyone else got hit hard with the Stupid Stick. So much for the Elements of Harmony after all this time.
