Look! An Update!

Look! A brand-spankin' new episode of Robot Girlfriend!

Sorry for the lack of update-age...and videos. There's this thing called school that's totally harshing my youtube buzz. I'd so much rather create a video than design labels for a 4-spice pack sampler and then create a business identity for a non-profit using a Beatle's lyric as my tagline or make a book about cupcakes. Art school craziness.

Every so often I do put up videos on my personal youtube (and by every so often, I mean once) that was homework stuff. You can find that solitary video here.

And that's taking care of business...


As many of you know, there are a few TV shows I follow religiously, no matter how crap they are. One of those shows is Smallville. I was afraid that once Michael Rosenbaum and John Glover left that it would suck. But as an Allison Mack fangirl, I have kept watching and have been pleasantly surprised this season so far.

Characters that have annoyed me in the past are gone (OMG NO LANA YAY) and some characters have been pretty much retooled completely but are finally the way they should be (Lois is ACTUALLY competent...sometimes). I wish I could ignore past seasons and their characterization because it's just a HUGE jump but what can you do? I'm going to accept it and enjoy my crappy show.

Chloe is pretty badass. Now she's super smart and super heal-y (or is she? I don't know if they ever mentioned if she can still heal people) and engaged to Mr. Jimmy Olsen (not so much awesome...Jimmy is sweet but Chloe is too awesome for him) and obviously something is going to HORRIBLY wrong. Kind of excited to find out what that something will be. Probably something to do with Davis, the new more interesting male character.

Davis is cool. He's interesting and hot, two very good things in TV. I wish Chloe was with him instead of with Jimmy. They have crazy chemistry! On the topic of new characters, Tess is meh. My opinion of her changes every time she has a different scene. Her scenes with Oliver are all anger and sexual undertones, when they're about finding Lex she's probably in love with him or whatever and when she's trying to be intimidating it just doesn't work, when she's with Clark or opposite anyone at the Daily Planet she's at her best. So far, Davis is my favorite newbie.

I'm glad that they're finally getting Clark out of Smallville (yeah, I realize the show is called "Smallville" but most of the action is in Metropolis and you know it!). It's only been, what, eight seasons?? And they're FINALLY tying up loose ends from season one, too! It's fabulous!

Other guilty pleasure shows include, as previously mentioned, True Blood. I also have been watching Sanctuary because I heart Amanda Tapping. What are your guilty pleasure shows?

Check out Robot Girlfriend!

You can check it out on BW's youtube channel or you can find it here!

Our lovely badger Laura K is the star of this wonderous creation! Please support her and show your love. I know I'm intrigued by this new series and I hope that they keep going with it. :-)


Don't worry, our next collab is on its way. Eventually. The millions of classes I'm taking are getting in the way with me actually doing things that are, you know, fun. So yeah. Sorry. I'm trying ya'll, promise.

In the mean time, I would love if Badgers put their personal video projects (not necessarily collabs) on our Youtube. I have a few that are short projects I've done for After Effects class that could be uploaded but don't know how other people feel about that. It's really just a forum for us to express ourselves creatively. So, what do you think?
