OMG. It is so fitting that my local news is now advertising a story: "Not your average blonde woman: the peculiar effects that blondes have on men." (quote taken verbatim, thanks to the joys of Tivo)



I HATE THIS EPISODE WITH THE PASSION OF A THOUSAND FIERY SUNS. HATE. HATE SO MUCH. OMG HATE.

ok, Hiro and Angela were cool. But that is it.

Show? You made me hate Mr. Bennet. I would say you made me hate West, but that happened a long time ago. And WTF, now he gets Claire for a prize?

HATE HATE HATE HATE STABBITY HATE HAVE NO MORE WORDS.

WTF?

I was actually really happy that we were all accepting people's deaths and not playing God was the theme of the episode. And I was really pleased about Mr. Bennet dying (I haven't liked him in a while, and I never really loved him), then he gets the miracle cure at the end. Not Niki, for all we know she's dead as... D.L. Or Kaito (or Simone and Charles Deveaux, or Isaac Mendez, or Charlie, or Eden...). But not The Petrelli brothers, or Adam Munroe/Kensei, or Noah Bennet.

I think the message is, death is out of our hands and we can't do anything about it, unless of course a white man is involved, then we'll pull some magical solution out of our hats.

I think I've crossed that line, and I'm not watching this show anymore.

I know! If they want dramatic death sequences, the people need to _stay dead_ for it to work! And that's not even thinking about the politics part. Ugh.
