Looking at the promo pictures for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, I find that while I certainly have no objection to a black Hermione, it does annoy me that neither she nor Ron have the right hair color; I still don't get why they weren't wigged. On the other hand, I was deeply relieved to learn they're still married. I've had enough fictional breakups this past half year to mourn over!
Rewatching Animaniacs on Netflix, I find there are a few jokes I didn't get when I was young that I get now. On the other hand, there are a number that still go over my head, because they're 90s-style references noone remembers anymore. The show is still very entertaining, but it nonetheless dates itself. It was odd, though, to see the first Rita and Runt cartoon, which was actually not the first one of the characters I saw by a long shot, but still, I'm left very aware about that being my first exposure to Bernadette Peters, though I wouldn't learn it was her until years later. How many children were first introduced to Peters when she was voicing that cat?
Headed to Awesomecon on Sunday. Still no costume to wear, but my sister has had her hair dyed "Targaryan silver."
