I debated whether or not to post about my TIFF experience. On the one hand, all of the movies I saw are being released relatively soon (as early as this past Friday, and as late at Christmas Day ’09) and are being reviewed by more relevant people than me. On the other hand, I always…

(I have time to kill before check-out time.) Things of note related to Comic-Con: 1. I have entirely forgotten everything that was supposed to be an announcement made during panels I attended. Ex. Alexis Denisof (Wesley from Buffy) will be joining Dollhouse in season 2. Totally forgot that until I read it somewhere else. I’m…

Ah, the last day of Comic-Con. *tear* Thankfully, this was the one and only day I did NOT wake up before dawn to join a massive line-up. This time, I very casually strolled down to the exhibition hall a little after 10am for some shopping and autograph hunting (thankfully, I was not to be disappointed!…

Yesterday was a mix of panels and emotions (see? see what I did there?). It was another early-to-rise, long day of panels, again, all T.V. This time I made the fifth row (and later moved to fourth). Woot! Chuck: It started with Chuck, which I don’t watch, but I was happy to see Adam Baldwin…

TV Day!… with JOSS WHEDON! I started off yesterday much the same as the day before – in a long line. This time, though, my aim was to get as close as possible to Joss Whedon, who was doing the Dollhouse panel in the afternoon. Before that was a bunch of other T.V. panels, about…

I woke promptly at 4am (7am Toronto time) to saunter over to the convention centre armed with reading material and snacks to get in line for the day’s panels. So although when I left my hostel the street…

Sorry, I think I may have messed up the numbering of these days. Anyway… It’s 4:20am here, and I’m about to go line up for the big panels of the day. Unfortunately, since they don’t clear out the rooms in between panels, if you want a good seat (or any seat) for a big afternoon…

This has already been one long-ass day, and I haven’t even made it to the convention centre to grab my con badge yet. But as I wait for the hostel phone to be free so I can call my dear mother, I figured I may as well recount my adventure thus far. (These will be…

Allow me to preface this with the fact that I do, indeed, have a job and a life. Now… I’m pretty excited about all the TV I plan to watch this summer. And it’s not because there are particularly awesome shows airing during the summer months, but because I plan on watching most of these…
