Summary:

It's probably weird that an episode of a show where the titular character is only present in a voice-over is so good, but this episode is great. Grif and Simmons get a visit from a Council middleman, and between one visit in the present and one in the past, we see how much has changed for the two in just a year. Though we could've done without experiencing that eye-searing yellow zoot suit.

Series summary: Carolina: The Teenage Witch was a sitcom series that aired on ABC, and then the WB network, over the course of six seasons, airing directly after its parent series Sabrina: The Teenage Witch each Friday night. Similar to its predecessor, it centers on the life of Carolina Church, a teenager who discovers on her sixteenth birthday that she’s a witch. Although a spin-off, Carolina: The Teenage Witch featured a host of original characters, with the occasional guest star and name drop from its parent show, and rare crossover episode. It also took a more serious tone, focusing on the half-mortal witch and mortal discrimination and the corruption within the Witches Council.

 

Notes: A self-indulgent Sabrina The Teenage Witch fusion that has gotten out of control, but I’m having fun with it!

I’m a First member, but I’m going to be posting my reactions a week behind to avoid spoilers. So here are my thoughts on the fourth episode of the season after a second rewatch!( Read more... )

The Perils of Being a Librarian

 ...is that you find too many books at work, until you've accidentally checked out 20 at once and you get stuck in a loop of "I should read these, but which one" and end up reading none, and then just staring, stressed out, at the pile of twenty books on your floor.
