I KNOW. I KNOW. BUT LATE IS BETTER THAN NEVER, RIGHT?
Wait, HBO, seriously? OH THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO AWESOME and we could've seen Logan without his shirt on more often.
You must have heard a lot about the wonderfulness that is L/V, and it just didn't deliver. A lot of things are only as awesome as people say they are if you experience it first-hand, rather than hear how awesome it is and then watch it. (If that makes any sense at all.)
YES, THAT IS IT EXACTLY. Going into Buffy, I heard a lot about Buffy/Spike, and for four seasons I was assured that they were perfect and awesome and I'd love them once I got to "Fool for Love", none of which happened for me, because of how much people built it up. Also, see why I don't like Rose that much. Discovering that she is not, actually, a flawless human being was something of a slap in the face, and why things like her selfishness stood out in high contrast, compared to her good points.
I'm still holding out hope that I'll like L/V though! To be honest, I think it might be the generic formula for L/V I dislike more than the ship itself, the whole "Bad boy falls for good girl who then cures him of said badness! Le gasp!" thing very rarely does it for me (an exception would be Tim/Lyla on FNL, but I think that's it). If the writers can stray from the usual storyline such a relationship would take, I can see myself getting invested. ANYWAY, WE SHALL SEE.
Thank you! VM caps are the prettiest things on this earth. :D
I have! I'm currently up to "Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang", and I'm enjoying S2 very much. So far, it doesn't have the impact that S1 carried, but I'm still really invested in the characters, if not the storylines (give me a few more episodes, I'll get in to the bus crash thing eventually). I was extremely flabbergasted, if pleased, about the fact that Veronica and Duncan are going out, and I am liking Logan's reaction to the relationship (and Duncan's reaction to Logan's reaction). Also, CHARISMA CARPENTER! Girl just gets hotter as she ages, holy shit.
