Three out, change!

Posted by Matte on November 28th, 2007

I’ve been watching a lot of Major recently, or rather, I’ve pretty much only been watching Major except for about three shows of the current season and I’ve developed some kind of love-hate relationship with the show.

I’m probably just whining because “life goes on” endings always […]
