I talked to [livejournal.com profile] shruuf earlier about what draws peaple to a TV show. she told me she doesn't like Nip/Tuck because she cannot identify with a character, or doesn't have a favorite character and there doesn't seem to be an overseasonal or serieswide plotdevice or goal. Like I like Lex in Smallville. I liked the Manticore hunts the mutant plots in Dark Angel, and the mystery in the second season. Or even like I loooved Tom Paris in Voyager and Lex Luthor in Smallville.

Usually, I need a favorite character to totally get hooked on a show. It makes me passionate about it, it makes me want to read fanfic, get involved in fandom by that and participate. And yes, it also lets me turn a blind eye on the mistakes, the wormhole-wide plotholes, and continuety errors more, because there is my man and he's just walking and THERE.

I must admit, that lately I'm a bit disappointed in smallville. I don't like hwo the producers and writers are handling the show and the mythology. There has been lots of talk about the relationship between Ley and clark the last few days and I urge you to read this. It was linked by [livejournal.com profile] mecurtin in the yahoo Clark/Lex community and basically sums up my misgivings.

But still, I'm watching Smallville for Lex and the Clex. And to have fun. But there are large parts involving a formerly pink princess where are often push the forward button, cos I'm bored. The Smallville cast is inconsistent. KK is just bad and boring. she has moments when she shines but for me, they are too few, too little. I want to believe that she cannot identify with Lana, but I think KK cannot choose a project to save or life. She was spectecularly bad in earthsea. She sucked the life out of poor shawn Ashmore too. Basically, I think Smallville isn't what it should have been.

The thing is, I love plot. When I read fanfic, I don#t like pwp. I need plot. There is nothing more gratifying then a thikly, well-planned plot. without holes. There was this shining moment in season 3, well, all of season three up to asylum. It was a story-arc. An arc that fed bits an pieces to the viewer each episode and slowly let us in on the truth. This arc ended with a bang, a bang so beautiful and painful at the same time it was hard to bear.I remember shaking in front of my monitor and thinking wow!!!! cos Shattered and Asylum, btu Asylum especially, full of plot and wonderful acting. Even Lana didn't piss me expect the time she told Clark he was to blame. this years story-arc involves a) Lana and b) is too inconsistent and I close to have forgotten it again. Well, he whole season overall is very medicore and my favorite character, the one I'm identifying with and mainly watch to show for is basically screentimeless. Not to mention that other factor why I watch the show, the Clex. I mean... two eps with Clex in it?? And I'm supposed to care much?

I totally went of course here.... *giggles*

I'm kinf of passionate about my boys. The moment I saaw the show, that was it. UI had to check out if there was fanfic and my entry in thw world of livejournal came shortly after. Because they were my characters.

Which sort of brings me to Veronica Mars. I do not have a favorite character. Neither do I ship any het or slash pairing. they story in itself it what keeps me on that show. It's deeply intervoven, cleverly thought out, cleverly excecuted and well played by the actors. There isn't a weak link. I don't have a favorite character, cos i like all of them. Just not with the passion I have for Clex and Lex. But it doesn't need that passion. I don't think you'll find me write or read VM fanfic. Bt itS' basically because the show in itself it such a wonderful construct. Because it's an every episode continuing story-arc that just has me so wrapped in it I cannot stop musing otr speculating, just like I think maybe Twin Peaks was back in the day.

And it's not only the main storyline but the little countless details they fit in there in such a wonderful way. Awesome cast, awesome writing, awesome stories. Just wow. Now it just need a Lex. :)

YAY  
I got a new Monitor!!!!! And it's biiiig.

No recs today, I'm so tired....

>><<

Now to... the Visitor:

I liked it, but I'm easy to please. You probably heard a lot about this already but Lex's Clark room did not freak me out. odd
Again. i liked it...not the best ever, but not the worst. and after Rosetta, it was kinda clear to me that Lex was still investigating Clark.

It was rosetta when I was disturbed by it. Just two eps before was Prodigal, I thought THAT change to be sudden.

>><<

I changed http://www.parisnights.de into a portal, you can reach Paris nights from there. Almost all the pages are WIP...
