[fandom] the good, the bad, and the undead

[escritoireazul]

The good: It looks like maybe Friday Night Lights will be renewed.

The bad: I'm not sure I can keep watching Supernatural. I've just about reached my limit of women who are victims or enemies every. goddamn. time. Every. single. woman. I'm really quite sad about this, because I love Supernatural, I love the sibling relationship, I love the monster stories, I love the music, and I love the Impala, but I don't like the way they portray women, I've never liked it, and I'm really disappointed and frustrated.

The undead: From the directors of Undead, which is an awesome Australian horror movie (with some fantastic portrayals of women, by the way), there will now be Daybreakers. The synopsis:

Hawke will play a researcher in the year 2017, when a plague has transformed most of the world's population into vampires. As the human population nears extinction, vampires must capture and farm every remaining human or find a blood substitute before time runs out. Meanwhile, a covert group of vampires makes a discovery that has the power to save the human race.

Er, of course "part one of the pilot" should read "part one of the season finale" because I am, apparently, typing while half-asleep.
