I'm always surprised to see how much of television writing is "Oh, let's just write this cryptic thing and we'll explain it somehow later."
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[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, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Tim is an evil, evil man, and I love him for it: And I shot Bennett in the head because it's funny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
PC, not a Lost or Alias fan?
Sometimes it's just done better.

Sometimes I'm amazed at how the conciously mapped out decisions are the ones that end up not quite fitting, and the fixes and workarounds end up being serendipitous and brilliant. Not always, mind.

Oh, I love both shows. It still boggles my mind.

Right? Like I love season four of Angel, and apparently it was largely improvised.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I realize what's bugging me about 'Bennett hearing wrong'. I enjoyed disliking Caroline.

I found the "hearing wrong" scene interesting, but I still dislike Caroline.

I wonder how much we're supposed to dislike Caroline because we're to like Echo more. Frankly, I'm not in love with either of them. I get that Echo's special, and that's the point of the show, but she's still not why I show up.
I am fully on the side of her persisting over reinstating Caroline, although I am being hypocritical there.

I do like Echo better than Caroline but I wouldn't miss either of them if they were to disappear and the show went on without them. Of course I love Victor.
