keep_countingGOOD LORD WHAT IS THIS SHOW DOING TO ME
'I am darkness. I am death. Vengeance and fury. Fire and blood. Diamond and bones. Sapphire and.... steel. Confess Owen. CONFESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS'
Annie said 'fire and blood' you guys. Guess what I thought of. Also, she makes the best faces. THE BEST.
Other notes on the show this far:
- I'm at the stage where I sort of want to punch Mitchell. I get why he's doing the things he's doing, but I think it bugs me that we don't have more of his background-story. We don't actually know that much about his relationship with Herrick, how many times he's fallen on and off the wagon etc. I don't feel like there's enough motivation behind his actions, and thats mainly the writers fault at this point. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy his storyline: I am thrilled we finally have a vampire who embraces his darker nature, and doesn't go around moaning and feeling constantly guilty over all the lives he's taken. The world is a hard place and Mitchell is a hard man(vampire) but that doesn't mean he's a bad person.
- Will we ever get the story of what happened to Nina? On one hand I want it, on another I don't. It adds a beautiful dimension to her character, and I like her reasoning for not explaining: if she talks about it, she'll remember and... well, it must have been absolutely horrible. But my imagination is also playing over-time, and I think George's is too. At this point, what really happened cannot be as horrible as the inferno of pain and destruction I am imagining. I guess I just want Nina to stick around, please.
- I think I want Mitchell and Annie to be together and have beautiful curly-haired babies. Only, of course they can't have babies, but the show wouldn't have established that Annie can touch other people and be touched by other people, without there being a reason. AND THAT KISS. That is still the sweetest thing ever.
- Will we ever get to see Mitchell in Casablanca? ;)
- I would love this show for its dialouge alone. 'We were like the worlds gayest ninjas!' - 'Did you just hit me with a chair? What is wrong with you people. That totally, fucking hurt!' - 'She kicked me in the shin. The shin, George!' - 'Doesn't he understand, these people are British. You're not allowed to talk to your neighbours until you've nodded at them for fifteen years'
- Does anyone know where I can watch the Pilot episode? It didn't work on the site I'm using, so I just skipped it and dove straight ahead to episode 1. Did I miss something really, extremely important? It doesn't feel like I did. I want to watch it anyway.
