I just realized today that ABC's "Revenge" begins a week from today. It used to be on Wednesdays, but is now on Sundays at 9.

I've actually known it was coming for a few weeks, and when I first learned when it was, I flipped out, because another show I like is at the same time.

There's actually a new one tonight: the show looks back on season one, and previews the new season.

Oh, wow--excellent recap (the majority of tonight's show) and teaser for Sunday. Mom taped it, and plans to watch sometime between now and then. **I can't *wait! (And this from someone who was flipping out because "Revenge" is now on at the same time as "Sins and Secrets".)

I've just been to the website that has full episodes, because I missed a lot of "The First Chapter" due to my TV "acting up" (I still don't understand what happened--it's as if I pushed a button, but my fingers weren't anywhere near any of them). Luckily, I was able to follow the show once the sound came back on.

Watched "Destiny," last night (that's the name of the premiere) even though Mom wasn't available to compare notes with (she had to run an errand last night, and taped it).

Found clips of "perspectives" online today: Emily's played initially, then stopped; Daniel's played, but was extra slow; and Victoria's also "just sat there." I think the problem might be I have an outdated version of "Flash Player." I'm just grateful some of the videos play at all!

The latest episode, which aired on Sunday, is called "Resurrection." Things are really heating upg

Been reading quotes from the previous two episodes, and now know that the name of the one on Sunday is "Confidence."

Last night I saw the preview for Sunday; it looks good Can't hardly wait

Looks like the ad I saw was actually for next week

And just when you think it's getting stale... not so much

So many smooth operators (which do I like least - I thought I knew... but I'm back to where I was last season)

10/21/12 = "Intuition"

Nothing will ever be the same again

I missed the first ten minutes of tonight's episode due to preparations for that damned storm

Mom skipped it altogether, opting instead to watch a movie (I forget the exact title offhand, but the second word was "Dark"). She still taped it, though (and as soon as it's available online, I can catch up)

Oh, and the name of tonight's episode was "Forgiveness."

Last night's episode, "Illusion," made Mom lose some interest, as she was able to predict the one scene before it happened. Other than that, not much to complain about

“Pennance” was full of a lot of visuals (I’m noticing this more—I need an interpreter). Mom was out to dinner with a friend, so wasn’t able to help me with my confusion. She did tape it, though.

In other news, I saw previews for the show on 11/25—and only realized belatedly that’s next week’s! I can’t believe it—time’s just flying past (certain months tend to do that more so than others).

Just as season one had an episode called “Lineage,” so does season two. Tonight’s episode flashes back to 1996 where, among other things, we get to see more of the origins of Aiden’s relationship with Emily.

Tonight's episode is called "Revelations," and the previews tell us "everything we've been waiting for has led up to this"--and the words "ultimate betrayal" are used.

Seems ABC is the network that enjoys toying with us. I remember, at the end of season I, there were two or three finales at the end of the year. I actually forgot abotut that until I saw a preview for a new episode—and it said “Sunday at 9.” That prompted me to wonder how many winter finales there are.

Mom saw about three quarters of the program before she had to leave to pick her friend up from work—that’s where taping comes in handy (she set it to record each episode that comes on).

The next new episode's January 6.

The title of January sixth's episode was “Power.” Two of my favorite quotes were:
- “True power can never be lost or won. True power comes from within.” – Emily
- “The greater the power, the greater the potential for abuse.” – Patricia

From the episodes entitled "Sabotage" and "Collusion," which aired on my station on January 13 and January 20:

"They say the best laid plans often go awry, because... no matter how detailed the preparation, there will always be a weak point... [and] those waiting to exploit it." - Emily Thorne

"Every human is born of collusion. We come into this world the result of a covenant... made in secret." - Emily Thorne

The next episode, which broadcasts where I am on February 10 at 9 PM, is entitled "Union."

From "Union:"

"In its truest form, union becomes our essence. When that union is broken, our essence is forever changed." - Emily

"Aiden, don't leave me alone in this." - Emily

"with this ring, you are in my life forever." - Jack

"everyone deserves love, and hope, and security." - Amanda

"I guess I'm a little out of touch these days." - Daniel

"The mistake was yours the day you put a price on my son's head." - Victoria

"You wept for twenty years over a man you betrayed--I hardly think you have it within you to kill me." - Helen

Explanation first, before anything

A few weeks ago, found I could no longer view videos on ABCs website. (Normally, I review the episode online after the fact, then write down the quotes that jump out at me.)

Yesterday, I found that, for whatever reason, I can now view youtube videos (I get a message sayin my browser's not accepted, but nonetheless it plays). Curious, but I won't question the universe (I'll just go with it).
