Hello dead weekend livejournal! I have kind of invented a meme. Well, "invented" is probably a strong word, I'd be super surprised if something like this has never ever been done before. But it's a kind of um, experiment to see how much information we accidentally pick up from reading our friendslist, but that makes it sound lame, and I THINK IT WILL BE LULZY TOO.

ANYWAY: what I want you to do is name a show I don't watch (if you want me to list the things I do like I will, but I think most of you have a decent idea of what I'm into and if you don't it's pretty well outlined in my interests -- OH, except for Psych, that's... recent and I've now seen enough that it would be cheating) and I will try to describe it to you (looking things up is obviously cheating, it's a test to see what random things have been picked up).


I'm actually equally (almost more?) enthused about the idea of feeding people shows though, so if you're bored too you should totally play on your own.

I can do this one! In the first book Bella Swan moves to Forks, WA which is in the middle of nowhere. There's... something with her parents, I don't know. They're separated. She is special and everyone knows it. Edward is sparkly and apparently kind of enjoyably sarcastic in the first book and they fall in love. He... lives with a lot of other vampires. They're all immortal. Um. Yes. Oh! Edward likes to watch her sleep.

The second book may as well not exist for all I know about it.

In the third book Bella is torn between Edward and Jacob. I think both of them have been accused of in some way forcing themselves on her (idk if I mean emotionally or physically). There are a lot of shipping wars.

In the fourth book Edward and Bella get married, have sex and she gets pregnant and Edward has some self-loathing stuff because like... the baby is going to kill Bella or something? But I guess she becomes a vampire and that... saves her, I don't know. This dilutes the point of the books because the idea was that if she became a vampire, she would never be able to reproduce or live her life? But this way she gets both. Um, I think there's some kind of vampire and werewolf war that ends in an anticlimatic way and... they name the baby Renesmee. Jacob "imprints" on the infant, which is somehow icky and implies she's his soulmate or something?

THAT WAS KIND OF A LOT!
