H&A
I want to talk about stuff in the last 2 eps, even squee-worthy moments, but I don't think I can right now. Maybe later.
But you know how I didn't know if I could stick with this show after Zoe's departure? My mind was made up last night at the very moment where Kim went rushing to save Zoe, broke down when he couldn't, and blamed himself for everything. Because that's the Kim I've known all along and for them to give me that? Even now? I'm almost grateful.
But I'm not forgetting what the did to Zoe (if they did what they're currently making us believe they did). I'm not forgetting how they've changed Robbie into a brat, either. I'm staying for Kim. My poor, sweet boy who always has to be the hero, and hates himself when he fails. When he cried last night, I just wanted to pull him from that TV screen and hold him forever. *clutches Kim* He's mine now, H&A writers. I'm not letting you hurt him again. Not ever.
Oh, Kim, Zoe was right when she told you that there *are* people who care about you and I just want you to realise that people can love you without *needing* you.
When you and Robbie were in love (and you so were, don't deny that) you did everything for him. You protected him and beat up anyone who threatened that, and it got to the point where all Rob had to do was *ask* and you were there throwing punches and making threats. But then something happened to Robbie that you couldn't help with and things fell apart.
You loved Charlie because you thought he was your son and he needed you to be there for him. You tried to love Brooke because that was the thing to do, even if Brooke was a manipulative little wench, and I still think Charlie deserves you as a father.
You love Tasha and you treat her like a little sister, giving her advice about Robbie and trying to convince her to stay in the Bay. And she comes to you for that.
Zoe hurt you (you hurt her first though, idiot) but then when apologising she told you that you made her feel safe and suddenly you were right back there in her life until, well, let's not talk about that yet.
I guess I'm leading up to the fact that I'm concerned now that you're going to move from this right on to the next person who needs you. And we all know that person is Hayley who is (supposedly) carrying your child. *Please* don't fall into that trap where you think you love her because she needs you to care for her. You wryly commented on the deja vu in your life a couple of days ago, remember? Take note of that, honey, and don't get hurt again.
And also, Chris? Don't let them hook Kim up with Martha. I swear that girl reads lines offan autocue. Your acting has benefited from working with Emily lately, and I don't want to see that runined because as much as you *rocked* last night, you don't always hit your mark just yet. I know what you're capable of now. Don't screw it up.
Veronica Mars: 'M.A.D.'
I enjoyed that ep so much, even though I was a little spoiled by a totally unrelated community (it's a minefield out there). So much fun and I was laughing and oohing at all the appropriate bits. Especially Bart! He's zipped his way to Neptune now? Hee! And I was laughing again at SV similarities at the end with the tying to a pole...then that kid opened his stupid mouth and said 2 little words which just *broke* me. Me. Gaping like a fish for a second then screaming, "Nooooooooo! Not Logan!"
This show sucks! But in that, OMG this show rocks, kind of way. *g*
