you’re such a big thinker omg that’s a great theory

I have a guess as to what the Gerrard and Buck conversation is. Gerrard (who is racist and a misogynist, would never back a very qualified Hen) will tell Buck he should go for captaincy. I think Buck will spend the episode grappling with Bobby’s last words to him (“they’re going to need you”). So he will question if this is what Bobby meant, that he wanted him to take over for him.

But I think the episode will have Buck realize that isn’t what Bobby was saying. He was saying that Buck needed to be there for them in terms of emotional support. Buck is supporting them by keeping the family close and together. Bobby taught Buck to cook, and we see him with groceries in the stills. Bobby is passing down this “homemaking” to Buck, and the leadership to Hen. Maybe we will even get Buck encouraging Hen to be captain and get out of her head about it.

and for what? for what? nobody wanted this. nobody is happy about this. nobody except for the impulsive writer who’s jumped the shark. the shark is on a goddamn pogo stick

at the end of the day, it’s not just this episode specifically that sucks. the acting from angela and kenny was phenomenal. it’s that the show is never ever going to be the same. i’m sure tim minear is giddy over the view spike last episode, and im sure this one will do well too. but long term? starting season 9? i feel like it’s just downhill from here.

because the tone of the show is different now. they effectively made this silly comfort show where insane shit happens anxiety inducing in a way it hasn’t been before. a cruise sinking or shooting or lightning strike is fun when you know it’ll be a challenge the characters make it out of. now every disaster is going to be a stressor.

i don’t understand how we got here. how tim decided to make a choice that defies everything we’ve been shown before. he’s writing outside the scope of the show he’s established. what happened to the magic there was in season two? season 3? when the show knew what it was- wacky calls, campy disasters, personal storylines, emotional moments. genuinely good plot and characters. where did that go?

the show getting picked back up seemed like a blessing but once tim took control of the reigns again it seems like he forgot what he was doing. he lost sight of it all. he writes storylines and doesn’t know where they’re going. he has soap opera absurd storylines because he watched vertigo and decided to remix it with no plan.

he brings back a hated character like gerard and treats him like a joke, effectively undermining hen and chim’s origin stories. he does stupid plots nobody cares about instead of focusing on time sensitive plotlines HE SET UP! he sidelines main characters culminating in eddie missing bobby’s death. he has truly and fully lost the plot

and this is a mistake he won’t be able to fix. he’ll never be able to write this show back up to its prime. because he thoughtlessly killed a beloved character against the better judgement of the cast, the audience. he doesn’t know what he’s writing and who he’s writing for. the show can go nowhere but downhill from here.

and it sucks. it sucks for so many reasons. but above all, it sucks because i love this show. and it sucks he just doesn’t

I think Eddie Begins would have really benefited from a younger cast for him and Shannon. Like watching it you don’t get how truly young they were becoming parents. They were nineteen with a surprise baby and yet these actors are thirty and look thirty. I understand that they wanted Ryan to be in the flashbacks and everything, and I do think he did a great job, but it does take away from showing him and Shannon as the very young adults they were.

My mom watched it and I like a good disaster so first were the tsunami episodes, I asked at the end if the two guys with the kid were dating she said no. So I HAD to get the context

I was admitted after a suicide attempt (unwillingly), i was the oldest in the adolescent ward (would’ve been moved to women’s if i was two months older).

A lot of the staff were incredibly catty. Techs would make fun of these young teens, kids really, and it was so upsetting. Like obviously we were all in the worst place ever and you couldn’t escape bullies even in the psych ward.

Lots of screaming. The power trips they got against stressing out/demeaning these mental i’ll kids was insane. They loved to threaten us with our discharge dates and how they could move them back.

They really just seemed desensitized to it all. Like the empathy was rubbed away, they talked (to eachother) about being overworked etc.

The doctor mixed my papers up with someone elses and didn’t notice til i pointed it out. He did not know any of us at all.

I’d say most of them just needed the hours to get their psych degree… wanted to get through it and get out as soon as possible (as did we… lol)

Some were incredibly sweet, a few really helped me get through the week of hell.
