'Ariel'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
It's true -- it has its mysteries, but there's no need to feel compelled, as a viewer, to solve them. I never thought we had enough clues to bother working at it.
It's been...good, with one or two high points -- the episode with the reality all in the chick's head was great, I thought, and had excellent emotional through lines.
Eh. I really didn't like that episode. I got the idea, but the execution felt off to me.
I do like the show more than I thought I would, though. It's interesting and fun. But not horribly challenging and complex. I mean, it has an arc, and if that's too challenging for you, then...oops.
I thought it was very sweet. It's the only episode I've bothered to save on the TiVo.
Yeah, there were other people who liked it too. Me, I just couldn't past the ludicrousness of seeing the "EIGHT YEARS LATER" card. Although I do like what they did with that in the last episode, where Alana had trouble keeping her realities straight.
I was hooked during season one, but this season fell short of my expectations. The tension does seem to be building up to a fairly decent finale though.
the episode with the [spoiler omitted] was great, I thought, and had excellent emotional through lines.
That was a really great ep.
Anyone here caught the new Battlestar? It is really good.
Lotsa people have. Discussion happens in the Boxed Set thread.
Thanks muchly!
I debated whether to post this here or in music, but with the soap connection and the cheesiness, I decided on here:
