I think what I didn't like about Josh/Amy was that they really do bring out the worst in each other in a very real way. There's something very real to me about they way they depict fights- one of the most vivid memories I have of that pair is their fight during the Hallelujah sequence, and it just doesn't feel like two actors- it really feels like two people fighting. There isn't as much witty banter in some of their fights- it's two people hurting each other sometimes. Which, more power to the actors themselves, but it makes it very uncomfortable to watch. I do think Amy was a necessary part of Josh's development- he needed a relationship to truly crash and burn before he could figure a few things out (and his relationship with Mandy didn't provide that enough), but yeah. And I think since Josh is the POV character, it does reflect more harshly on Amy

*nod nod*

That's it exactly. I mean, I have other issues with Amy that are part and parcel of Sorkin's lady-writing troubles, but who she and Josh became when they were together was really unpalatable to me.

TW: I'm calling it the I am evil, hear me roar monologue. It was hilarious and a wee bit scary? His intent not the words, the words were melodramatic. And the improbably timed lightning. Why was there lightning, I do not know

I think it might have been more OTT than Gerard's MOUNTAIN ASH in the s2 finale, and I thought that would never be outdone for ridiculous scenery-chewing.

Are these characters physically incapable of normally communicating pertinent info with one another?

Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Though I think it's more that the writers do this for ~DRAMA~ but it just comes off really irritating since if they just talked to each other, some of their problems would be ameliorated.

According to A03, their email system is being flaky and emails are going out late. I got my usual overnight kudos list (a grand total of two! Tee hee, I am a fandom minnow) at about eight this evening.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't receive one at all yesterday, but there was a new one tucked in my inbox this morning, so I guess that's all right.

Right? I didn't realize how much I've come to depend on the kudos email in the morning (it gives me a little spring in my step as I get ready for the day) and then it wasn't there and I felt terrrrible.

And when it finally did come at 4:55, the day was already a total wash, it couldn't have been saved. :'(

I didn't get one at all yesterday *sadhair* but there was one this morning when I looked at my email on the bus.

That Demon Wolf speech had me in stitches laughing my ass off.

You know, I know the show is a horror-comedy, but sometimes I'm not sure the comedy is actually intentional? Which is to say, yes, that was hilariously OTT, but I'm not sure it was supposed to evoke that response.
