Stuff I've watched recently

Finally finished watching Misfits (the British TV series about a bunch of community service convicted to young people suddenly getting superpowers). I'd watched like, half of the first season, a year ago; and I went through the rest of it and all of S2 a few weeks ago. Overall a very good series, with some pretty good storytelling and directing though it occasionnally comes close to aggravating either by having the protagonists be a little bit too much to the antipathetic side; or with weirdness in the long term storytelling (the last episode, especially was filled with weird things in regard of other stuff it had set up in previous continuity). But lots of fun overall.

Also watched Hwang Jin Yi in a few weeks, a Korean Drama about a 16th Century Gisaeng (Courtesan and Artist) which was pretty much awesome. There were a little bit too much drama; but I think that goes with the territory, and I found the first part of the story a bit slow and repeatitive, but asides from that the story is superb, the acting very good, and the play of thematics (art vs love, suffering and how to sublime it through art) wonderful. Loved the amount of relationships between women playing in a variety of very intriguing ways, from friendship, and mentorship to rivalry. I need to watch more kdrama (actually this is the first one I finish watching, I haven't even finished watching Capital Scandal in years despite loving it, I think I'm afraid it might have a downer ending XD).
