BSC blather.

image host
So, was anyone going to tell me that the graphic novels were making Logan Bruno decidedly not white or was I just supposed to stumble across that on the internet for myself?

I have mixed feelings on this. On the one hand, you do you, boo. I am woefully behind on my graphic novels (and I'm currently pissed as fucking shit at Amazon for unrelated business) but it does kind of pose a problem.

Jessi's intro storyline leans heavily on the fact that Stoneybrook is shocked, shocked I say, that Jessi's family is black in their very, very white community. Logan not being white (to say nothing of the background characters there) kinda means this shouldn't be a thing... but it's also very much part of Jessi's story. So. Whatcha gonna do, books?



Finally, where the hell is my Netflix BSC show? I have been waiting impatiently for what feels like forever! Kristy Thomas would never keep me hanging like this. :P

More Greek characters, not less, dudes. Sigh.

I didn't remember whether they were going for a more obviously current time or if we were in ambiguous time-frame (note to self: re-read and catch up) in GN land. Jessi's gotta be showing up soon, though. I really hope we don't skip her pet-sitting. I need to see little baby hamsters, dammit.

If Logan ain't Southern, then he ain't Logan. :P

It's sort of ambiguous, but no one's going around in 80s clothes. Heh.

Gotcha.

Now. To get Netflix to be a little more specific than "it's coming sometime this year!"

Sometime!

I'm curious about it, but there's soooooooooo much I need to catch up on. Argh.

I've fully accepted that I will never catch up on everything. I am the absolute worst when someone asks, "so have you seen...?" because the answer is usually either yes, but I'm however many seasons behind or no, but it's on the list.

That said, I was promised BSC last year (and they promised it loudly enough that even my brother noticed and tagged me in one of the announcements and that's just weird enough) and they've yet to announce anything new in months. Give me something, even if it's just casting someone beyond Alicia Silverstone and Mark Feuerstein as possibly the most un-Watson Watson ever.

Though IMDB is giving an unusal cast assortment so who knows.
