alisanne- 6 am is early, yo! That was when I got up to be on line for Ballroom 20. Happily, I got in to see all the panels I wanted. :)
- Community. I've never seen it but the clips they showed looked fun and it got lots of recs from the people in line. I may have to give it a shot when I get home.
- The Legend of Korra! LOVE this show, and I have to say, the girls who cos-played Korra (and those who dressed as other water/fire benders) were on the whole quite good. Anyway, it's been picked up and so will finish it's 52 episode run! I can't wait to see the rest of it, what they showed us looks VERY EXCITING. :) Next season is about spirits. *g*
- As an aside, I should mention that there were several excellent Lady Lokis at the Korra panel, and even a couple of Hogwarts students.
- Firefly! Well I'm sure I don't need to tell you, but the entire room went nuts for a while. Nathan Filion, Sumer Glowe, and Joss were there, in addition to the actors who played Wash, the doctor, and Jayne. There's a 10th anniversary special coming up on the Science Channel that I'm quite excited for. :)
- Bones. Meh, I've never watched, so I read a book during that one.
- Arrow. We got to see the first episode. New show with an interesting premise. The origin story is kinda Dark Knight-ish, only maybe a bit darker. We'll see.
- Powerful women in pop culture. It was okay, the women (which included Zena!) made some great points about how women's acting roles and society's expectations have changed and about how far we have yet to go.
- JOSS WHEDON again! An hour of Joss making hilarious jokes and telling us what projects he's working on, including Dr Horrible II, Much Ado About Nothing (his version), and the next season of the Buffy comic. :)
- Dinner with![[insanejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/ij-userinfo.gif)
adafrog, who is lovely. We had Indian food and discovered that we share similar professions. *g*
Now to prepare for Hall H tomorrow. Gah! Wish me luck!

* JOSS! <3 Even when I disagree with him, he's entertaining and does his best to make good stories.
* Arrow: Quite curious about this one. I like Oliver Queen, so that's going to be interesting. I hope they deliver on it.
* Powerful women sounds like it could've had more punch, but good points at least.

* Yes, I plan to check out Community since I haven't seen any of it.
* Firefly was SO AWESOME! You totally need to watch it if you haven't and re watch it even if you've seen it before. ;)
* JOSS TOTALY ROCKS!
* Arrow did look interesting. It reminded me of the Batman origin story only slightly darker and with more intrigue. :)
* Yeah, the powerful women panel could definitely have been better. At least they didn't try to tell me Bella Swan was a good role model, though. :)
