Seriously, The Office keeps making it up to me for sucking so hard in the beginning of the season. OH MICHAEL/DWIGHT! HOW YOUR MESSED UP LOVE AND ARGUMENTS ABOUT TOILET INVENTIONS SPEAK TO THE VERY DEPTHS MY SOUL! &hearts &hearts &hearts And, even though Oscar didn't have any lines tonight (did he?) I totally gleaned Andy/Oscar subtext from this ep. Their subtext doesn't even need dialog... because it's subtext... so it's unspoken.
( The cold open was magnificent... )
30 Rock was legendary tonight. LEGENDARY! DID YOU SEE THE LOVING LOOKS SHARED OVER THAT PORTA-HOTTIE? Oh yeah. It is love, baby. Love all the way. And Jenna/Tracy continues to rock my world. And Tracy/Kenneth. In fact, Tracy/Anyone pretty much rocks my world. Tracy was definitely the MVP of this episode, he had me laughing like a madman. AND DR. SPACEMAN! GOD, I LOVE THAT MAN! I used to not be able to stand Chris Parnell on Saturday Night Live, but ever since he became Dr. Spaceman, I just can't not love him. I don't know why I couldn't see his awesomeness before. The only time I liked him was when he did that flamboyant dancing brothers sketch with Chris Kattan. Anyway, Dr. Spaceman is awesome. Obviously. Dudes, I just really loved this episode. I don't think there was a moment where I wasn't laughing my head off. It was such a ridiculous episode. AND DID I MENTION THOSE LOVING LOOKS? *dreamy sigh*
Ugly Betty was okay. I still miss Daniel/Betty sharing deep moments, and I still don't care for Daniel/Molly and think they totally screwed that storyline up (even if it will shorten Molly's time, I just... don't like what they've done there). Betty/Matt was back to being likable in this episode. Hilda/Archie is pure adorableness. Ignacio/Elaina continues to make me smile with glee. Wilhelmina and Marc were hilarious. But... this whole Betty/Matt and Daniel/Molly thing. I feel like it's ridiculously tedious, even though I know it needs to happen for character development and it's actually an advantage for Daniel/Betty shippers since Molly is a Betty stand-in and Matt is a Daniel stand-in, but ugh, TEDIOUS. Daniel and Betty are best when together. Apart, they're rather boring, which is sad, because they used to be my favorite characters. Now I seem to care about everybody but them. That's just... not right. They used to be my #1 ship. WHAT HAPPENED? *cries* With each new episode I'm feeling the Daniel/Wilhelmina vibes more and more, which... I don't think is intentional? Not in the romantic sense, anyway, but damn, I actually found myself saying tonight, "Oh, just make out already, will ya?" *sigh* This show. It is so inconsistent that it blows my mind. And... it's so cracky that I really wouldn't be surprised about an almost-step-son making out with his almost-step-mother. Heck, he slept with his almost-half-sister repeatedly.
After many weeks of avoiding it, I somehow got sucked into tonight's episode of Private Practice, and... ugh, it's still making me ridiculously angry. Cooper/Charlotte just makes me hate both of those characters so very much and I just don't get why they love each other. I DON'T GET IT! WHERE IS THE LOGIC? Seriously, from a storytelling viewpoint, it just makes no sense. In season 1 he was blindingly in love with Violet for years on end, and then in season 2 he wants to marry Charlotte. She cheats on him, he's still with her. I DO NOT GET THIS AT ALL! And then he goes home to Violet and talks to her pregnant stomach and Violet has her hands in his hair and a blissful smile on her face, AND IT FAILS TO OCCUR TO EITHER ONE OF THEM THAT THEY BELONG TOGETHER! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS SHOW? Also, I don't get Violet not wanting to know the father of the baby and being all "It's my body, it's my uterus." Yeah, well, it took two to make that baby, and the men actually want to be involved and she just shuts them out and refuses to let them know which one's the father like they don't have a right to know if they have a child or not? Again, WHERE IS THE LOGIC? That is not empowering for women, that is just pure stupidity. I've missed the last 4 or 5 episodes, but honestly, not much has changed from 5 episodes ago to this one. The show is still making me see red and annoying the crap out of me. Ugh. And what kills me is that I still live for those little Cooper/Violet moments, and the show is totally trying to make me its bitch by giving us that ending scene between them. UGH! Also, Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer was in this ep, and I literally squeed when I saw her. TARA! &hearts &hearts &hearts
Also, I am terribly, terribly addicted to "Buffy/Giles trapped on a deserted island" fanfic. It is sad how many of those fics there are. And it is sad how much they excite me. *sigh*
