March Marathon Madness
Well, the marathon was quite entertaining. First I woke up in time to watch all six parts of The 4400, which I found interesting when it first aired. Then the final five episodes of Farscape followed immediately thereafter by Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars Part 1. Farscape is truly a series that I enjoy: witty, funny, ironic, emotional, profound and facetious at the same time.
Then six straight hours of Frank Herbert’s Children of Dune. I still can’t decide if I like the first or the third part best, the first part has that wonderful muscial last act, but part three has so much tension! And listening to that music again reminds me how much I want that soundtrack CD.
Time for a break
I finished The Da Vinci Code yesterday, my English teacher lent me the illustrated edition for March Break. It was awesome! The plot is compelling and excellently constructed, and the characters are pretty realistic. The ending was slightly rushed, in my opinion, and not as fulfilling as I would have liked.
Speaking of the March Break … it’s over now. It was fun while it lasted. Would I like more time? Yes, of course, but I’m also glad to be going back to school. Besides, it’s Easter Weekend at the end of this week, and Space is airing a miniseries marathon. Part 1 of Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars on Friday, and Part 2 on Saturday! All 3 parts of Frank Herbert’s Children of Dune back to back on Friday! Muwahahahahah!
