In regards to that post I made a long time ago about FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood<\/em> being too similar to the original anime series, yeah, I’ve got my foot in my mouth now. The first 13 or so episodes do a very quick roundup of the major events that transpire in the first half of the original series, and then things branch off in so many different directions that wouldn’t even know where to begin if I tried.<\/p>\n

This is awesome. What was looking like a smoother retelling of a story I knew has become an entirely new story, with at least two scoops worth of new characters, some entirely repurposed characters, a whole mess of new plot threads, and just a bunch of overall awesomeness. The bad guys are badder, the mysteries are thicker, and I simply cannot get enough! I don’t think I’ve been this enraptured in a show since LOST<\/em>. In fact, I know I haven’t.<\/p>\n

Other shows I’m watching right now include Dollhouse<\/em>, which I watch on Sudays while I’m on the elliptical, and Fringe<\/em>, which I’ve only watched one episode of, but it feels like it’s going somewhere cool. Also Community<\/em>, what I believe to be the funniest show currently on TV. Not that I watch it on TV per se. All of my serial programming comes to me either on optical discs of some sort, or through the magic of Netfilx. I have many thoughts to share about all three shows mentioned above, though most of said thoughts should probably wait until I’ve gotten deeper into each series.<\/p>\n

In summation, I don’t really have anything to say today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
