Children of Earth: Episode 4

[amand_r]

FIRST, BEFORE I FORGET: SHITBEARS!

I was spoiled like a whore on her wedding night. So forgive that I entered this ep viewing like one on their way to the slaughterhouse.

1. Jesus, Jack. "Uncle Jack"? Jesus
2. You know, is it telling that the 456 apparently still upheld their part of the bargain when they only got 12 kids? I mean, really? Can they count?
3. Jack revives and grabs on to Ianto. Yeah look, I was desperate at this point.
4. THREATENING ALICE IS THREATENING.
5. I'll admit that at this point I was so fucking distracted, that I was listening to it while I was in another window, chatting in GCHAT. With lawsontl and lionessblack. Sorry. I just couldn't get there.
6. Aaaaand then the cameraman zooms in on the kid, and I had to go outside for some air.

~~beer one done~~

7. Ew. Oh Jack, rationalizing away the "sacrifice".
8. Ianto: I've barely scratched the surface, haven't I?
Jack: Ianto, that's all there is.
Ianto: No, that's all you pretend there is.
9. Sometimes I rather love Bridget Spears
10. JESUS. UNITS. UNITS. UNITS. JESUS.
11. There's a lot to despise about Frobisher, but really, right now I rather feel sorry for him.
12. "How could we sell it to the voters." THE VOTERS. GOD, I HATE POLITICIANS.
13. THEY PICK THE FAILING SCHOOLS. CDKOWROIKHNfvrw'b'Ldj cads;Lxcz,knzcbdsklvjdbavk;dsbv;kdsn v;dskjavbdfs;kavjbsa;vkdfsjbv;fskjbfad;kvjbdwnv;kjlanhf;dslbvjdsn;vkljdbs ;vskjlnI HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY SO MUCH TO FUCKING SAY.
14. GO LOIS HABIBA. GO MY DREDLOCKED BEAUTY.

~~on to beer three~~

15. OH. OH IANTO, BABY, NO. NO NO.
16. Oh, Clem.
17. WRECKED. WRECKED WRECKED.
18. Oh Gwen, my compassionata with your secret smile. Oh.

Fandom, we will get through this. If this is the end of the wseries, we will get through this.

And now, I'm going upstairs to wake my kid up and rock in the chair for a while.

I didn't know. And part of me knows it's irrational to be this upset over a fucking television serial but fucking hell! Why did they have to do that? Tosh and Owen weren't enough? FUCK!

You know, I don't think I have ever been this upset over a character death. And I wrote it, for christ's sake.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

There have been some really hard ones to take over the years but you're right, I don't think I've ever been this upset.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Nothin in HL ever upset me this much: Richie, Connor, even shit Methos in The Source. Because it was a shit movie, you see.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

I seem to remember watching The Source while quite drunk.

I could use a drink now.

I AM ON MY 4TH BEER.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

I'm kinda numb.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

MEE TOO.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

WHY DID THEY DO THIS TO US amand_r?!?

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Because "death is real".

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

Grrrrr.

Real death of the fanbase perhaps. Oi. I'll save my PTB rants for later. I'm too wrung out.

Kinda intrigued as to what the hell they're gonna do for tomorrow's epi now.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

i KNOW.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

I keep trying to think of ways they can undo it.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

OH U KNOW THEY CAN'T.

[bethcarielle.livejournal.com]

THEY COULD IF I MAKE THEM.
