Tamaline: 1.03

OH SHOW YOU DID NOT GO THERE. WHY DO YOU TEASE ME WITH OTPS INVOLVING CHARACTERS THAT DIED TWO WEEKS AGO? The flashbacks with Annabelle being all cute and helplessly in love while she was prattling on and on to Phineas, and James just being like, "She didn't call me Jamie, nobody ever calls me Jamie" and Tom just shooting Janie all these awkward looks while realization slooowly dawned on everyone else's faces oh my GOD. (Except Phineas', obviously. I really hope he gets to have more than one expression on this show, because he's so damn pretty.) It must suck being the only smart person in the room. And oh man, Janie just standing there having no idea how to deal with finding out that the girlfriend of the guy she's in love with was in love with her ( ... )

WORD on both the OTP-of-doom and the giving of actual explanations. Is it sad that having such freely-given exposition makes me instinctively doubt it? It just can't be that easy, something else must be at work here!

How much did you love Thomas' expressions during the whole explanation scene? He's like, "Hello, town of crazy delusional people!"

kayefierch April 7 2010, 00:23:24 UTC

...Now that you mention it, not at all. I don't know if the writers are just not trusting the viewers to be smart/patient enough to stick with it, or if in two more weeks they're going to be like PSYCH. Either way, I am worried.

So much. Oh my God. I love all of Thomas' faces, but that one might be my favorite of all time. I also love the progression of reactions he gets as his cases get weirder and weirder.

...And now I kind of want to make a Tamaline drinking game just so I can shout "Drink!" every time Thomas facepalms (or does the expressional equivalent - he's too controlled, fortunately, to just go around smacking himself!).

kayefierch April 7 2010, 00:35:30 UTC

Oh my God, YES. Drink every time James stares at Phineas a little bit too intensely. Drink every time Phineas Doesn't Get Humans. Drink every time Janie stands around not knowing what to do. (Also: fortunately? IT IS NOT MY GOAL IN LIFE TO SEE HIM SMACK HIMSELF ON THE SHOW.)

Ahahaha AWESOME! I may never be able to watch this show without a drink again!

(I want him to do it JUST FOR THE ICON OPPORTUNITIES.)

kayefierch April 7 2010, 00:43:21 UTC

Which is good, because I have a feeling I'll be needing it.

* NOW my goal, obviously. Way to say the exact opposite of what you mean, self.

omg, they are having a love triangle with only TWO PEOPLE BEING ALIVE. Tamaline, show, I am impressed. NICE WORK.

(although Janie, that is not what I meant by awesome.)

kayefierch April 7 2010, 20:37:37 UTC

Ugh, seriously. Although the only one canonically in love with Janie is Annabelle, because I still think she likes James more than James likes her, especially now that they have this added awkwardness to deal with. And let's face it, the dad's too depressed to be getting it on with anyone right now.
