Getting There

I've been really stressed, so I've found myself throwing myself into TV as an escape.

I'm in season two of Dark Angel now and...yeah. Way different. I'm not sure what I think. I like the characters a lot. I like the ideas and concept. Something is missing though. I can't quite put my finger on it.

But just finished "The Berrisford Agenda." Whoa.

Lydecker. I think losing Lydecker hurt the show. I also missed Zack sometimes.

What do you think of the virus that prevents Max and Logan from touching? I'll put my cards on the table: I thought that got old very fast.

There were episodes I liked, though, so I don't want to ruin it for you.

Lydecker is part of it. There's more to it, though. At least for me. I'm still contemplating it and I'm sure I'll babble about it later.

Oh man. I think it's what made me stop liking Max. There was something very wrong with her in S2. She always had attitude, but in S2 the virus thing made her bitchy, and not bitchy in a good way. I thought the concept was clever and all, but it should have been a limited storyarc of a few episodes and not the entire season. They could have kept the tension going without the virus.

But yeah. There were a lot of things I liked about the season and many things I didn't. So mucb lost potential and they focused on all the wrong things.
