It takes one to Nolan.
I can feel it creeping up on me...the irrational desire to hate Revenge's Nolan just because the emerging fandom seems to think he's the awesomest awesome that ever awesomed.
It really doesn't help that the character is being held up as amazing, with his motivation and every nuance fanwanked into some example of his epic woobieness, while many of the same viewers dismiss Jack as a pathetic stalker. Yes, Jack... who is so freakily obsessed with Amanda Clarke that he manages to use his powers to force her to show up wherever he is! That's some quality obsession right there. I wonder if he watched GH to pick up tips from Kristina on how to make your stalkee come to you?
Sigh.
In other TV news, The Vampire Diaries continues to be completely awesome (Damon and Liz! Yay!), and I'm loving Grey's Anatomy for the second season in a row.
