DUDE. YOU, ME, THIS SUMMER. WE'RE WRITING THE LAST FOUR EPISODES AND WE'RE WRITING THEM CORRECTLY. NONE OF THIS FRIDGING WIVES AND "I ANSWER TO GOD AND THE GOVERNOR" AND BIZARRE PHOTOGRAPHER DEADBEAT DADS WHO ARE SUPPOSEDLY AWESOME AND CHARACTER ASSASSINATION OF RACHEL AND DANNY AND THE GOVERNOR AND BASICALLY FUCKING EVERYONE. OH YES. WE WILL SHOW THEM HOW IT'S FUCKING DONE.
DEAL. *INTERNET EQUIVALENT OF SPITTING IN HAND TO SHAKE ON IT IDEK* I ANSWER TO GOD AND--WTF, I HAD ACTUALLY BLOCKED THAT OUT OF MY MIND BECAUSE IT'S SUCH SHIT WHERE DID HALF THE SHIT THAT WENT DOWN TONIGHT EVEN COME FROM AUGH AUGH AAAAAUGH.
EPISODE ONE: IN WHICH 95% OF WHAT HAPPENED WAS ALL A DREAM.
DID THEY THINK WE'D JUST ROLL WITH THAT DANNY/RACHEL CURVE BALL OUT OF LEFT FIELD WITH MORE BASEBALL METAPHORS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WITHOUT PREPARING US AT ALL?
Also, someone's fingers should be broken for the P Diddy episode. Blacklisting would not be unfair, methinks.
This episode, it just, WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT, WHAT WHAT WHAT. I love Rachel so much and Danny even more, and just, this isn't good for either of them or Grace and I just DON'T FUCKING GET WHY THEY WOULD DO THAT. And I feel like - I feel like the fix is going to be terrible, fucking awful, and I don't want it, DO NOT WANT, OKAY, NO.
I'm writing fixit because I have to HAVE TO right now, it's just, I have to make it better, I have to make it good with the characters because really, show, WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE TO THEM.
I DON'T EITHER, I JUST, I DON'T, AND THEN, WITH THE EGGS, LIKE "OH HOHOHO, SEE WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING THE WHOLE SEASON WITH THE GAY INNUENDOS? THAT HAS ALL BEEN A LIE BECAUSE LOOK! WE HAVE MADE DANNY STRAIGHT! STRAIGHT WITH RACHEL! AREN'T WE CLEVER!"
*cocks gun*
OH FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT. I CAN'T EVEN THINK RIGHT NOW, OKAY, SOMEONE ELSE HAS TO *CLINGS TO YOU*
FIXING SOME SHIT, THAT'S COMING, PROBABLY BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP EVEN THOUGH IT'S ALMOST QUARTER TO FOUR IN THE MORNING, BECAUSE SOMETIMES THINGS CANNOT WAIT.
OMG,I don't know how to feel right now. I was so sure that Danny and Rachel weren't going to be sleeping together and then they were and I seriously wanted to cry. Cheating is wrong, writers! Don't make characters that I love and respect commit infidelity!
But ignoring the cheating, I could be happy for Danny and Rachel because they are cute together and Danny with a baby is going to be amazing (and, also, I really want to see Steve being determined to learn all about how to take care of babies because he wants to be the best Uncle Steve he can be and he wants to help Danny take care of this tiny human being and just, sigh, it would be so adorable), but only if they actually work out whatever the problems were that lead to their divorce in the first place. Because they haven't done that yet and until they do them getting back together is going to be a disaster. Also, Rachel needs to stay in Hawaii. I will start hating her if she makes Danny choose between the team and her (and I like Rachel. Please writers, don't make me hate her
( ... )
I have this really gut-deep awful feeling that Rachel's going to die, just to turn Danny into as much of a raving lunatic bent on revenge as Steve is/was. Because the writers haven't shown any mercy in this department and i just i just. I like your version better, with Steve helping Danny take care of this tiny human being and yes, ohhhh, yes. Please oh please.
Also Re: Five Oh, I'm pretty sure the New Governor will reinstate is as a heartfelt apology once they establish the team is made of Good Guys. Because they need the NAME OF THE SHOW, JESUS.
Jenna is awesommmme. I hope they keep her. She's the one good thing to come out of this clusterfuck.
I wish I could say that I don't think Rachel is going to die, but since the writers are clearly eating crazy flakes, that's probably a pretty big possibility. But I hold onto my hope that the writers will realize that it would make no goddamn sense for Rachel to die and everything will be ok.
Steve would be so awkward with the baby at first but he would try sooo hard and Danny would laugh but then he'd patiently show Steve how to hold the baby and feed it with the bottle at the same time and Steve would beam and be so proud of himself and Danny would look all fond and wonder how this goof had somehow become family.
Ugh, probably. And the writers will just ignore how completely implausible the whole thing is.
Last I heard, Jenna should be permanent. I really hope so at least, because she already feels like such a part of the team.
ahahahaha. omg, all of this and more, and may i add that you pretty much single-handedly got me into this stupid stupid show?? you and your rants and your picspam and i don't *need* more shows in my life! bah!
anyway--yeah, all of that and more. my mom apparently has toast radar because she's watched one episode with me (scott caan's whole existence upsets her. she made me search the internet to find out if he's a midget. -___-) and she said, "That chick's gonna blow up." Then she said, "That woman totally did it." And I was like, MOM, that's the GOVERNOR, and. Sigh.
POWDERED EGGS! also steve's ridiculously flexible take-down of that guy, with the leg-wrapping and flipping? god damn.
Okay, so. I have taken deep breaths and also slept on it and I THINK THIS SHOW IS SALVAGEABLE. As soon as I answer comments I'm going to make a Good Things Optimism Post for the purpose of not being so blind-ragey smash things, and I hope that will help. *hugs*
