The Borgias 3x01. Mini-Sean Bean...

...or Andrew Gower and the art of dying after having been on screen for 3 minutes.



I don't watch The Borgias, but hey, Andrew Gower. XD So I did it the Misfits way: watched the parts with him. Which amounted to, like, 3 minutes total before he was - susprise! - beaten to death.
I fully expect someone to make a vid like this for Andrew because he is really shaping up to be the new Sean Bean:

Except Sean Bean actually plays big interesting roles before he is brutally murdered in more than a half of them. I get it: Andrew is young, up and coming, yadda-yadda, but you'd think BH is a big enough credit to his name to at least kill him after he's been on screen for half an episode instead of 3 fucking minutes.
As far as acting goes, I can't really say anything because he doesn't act per se. He just appears, talks to some girl, takes the order (in case you don't know, he plays the assassin), promises to spare a child and skips off. The next time he appears is when he goes to kill smn (told you, I didn't watch the ep, so no idea what's going on), and some dude kills him instead. Wow, he doesn't even get to fight back.
From a purely fangirlish point of view: look at the pic and tell me that's not cute. Also: codpiece. XD And he blinks. Yay. (Oh, the trivial things we find cute in those we fangirl/fanboy.) But other than that, to quote shirogiku: THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD.
When is the time for us to make a petition to stop the writers from killing Andrew on screen? Or at least to start killing him after he's actually played a part?
