I've been (work) busy for days, which is why I haven't posted to RAT much this weekend. I'm giving two of my three final exams today, which means I'll be grading for the next few days, but hopefully won't be busy cover-to-cover anymore... We'll see.

Anyway, I haven't watched much over the past 2 or 3 days:

soaps: DOOL - Wed to Fri's ep's. Philip's scheme to steal the drug for Bo goes awry (aside: Philip's nerdy friend does seem familiar - like the same actor was on the show as a teen years ago...). When Xander finds out, he threatens to kill Philip. Meh. 'Cos we know he won't... Alex wants to publish Stephanie's trashy manuscript... then they have sex. (Quelle surprise!) They claim to Marlena that they've found John (off- screen) - then Susan Banks has a dark premonition. [roll]
    GH - Thur's & Fri's ep's. Three main thrusts here. One: Carly and Willow prepare for the coming custody hearing - Sonny is appalled when he hears about Carly's scheme gone awry, and he goes to Willow to try to negotiate a deal. Two: Curtis has figured out that Drew is blackmailing Portia - first he tells Nina (who secretly already knows!) about it, then goes to confront Drew, while Ava pleads with Portia to come clean before it's too late. (Can't wait for Portia's life to fall apart soon!) Three: Lulu lets Cody in on her "Gio is Brook Lynn's son (and Brook Lynn knows it [she doesn't!!])" theory, and then they both try to prove it... Oh, and Alexis (and, separately, Lucky) try to track down the wreckage of Ric's totalled car, but Ava and Ric are seven steps ahead of them!

 Well, now that Buffy is back Xander and Willow will have to stop slumming it on soaps and move to New Sunndydale.  ;-)

 I watched:
  Found - "Missing While Dying" - Series finale.  They pretty much wrapped everything up, but doing it in a way that they can quickly undo it if the show comes back for a new season...

That reminds me - I left "Suits LA" (I'm pretty sure it was the finale) and then "Watson" (also the finale?) on as background noise while I graded last night. And during "Suits LA" I had to leave the sound turned up to cover noisy people down at the pool, so I kind of "watched it" watched it.
I was amazed that they actually seemed to wrap up all major storylines up in the "Suits LA" finale. Yes, they easily could come back for another season of this. But maybe outside of Amell's love triangle, they wrapped pretty much everything else up. So one cancelled show actually ends up with an acceptable finale. (Netflix, take note!!
