My thoughts on the s2 soundtrack
SPOILERS FOR THE ENTIRE GRISHAVERSE BOOKS BELOW!!
1. On the run: definitely alina mal in some dramatic chase scene in ep 1
2. Market chase: Mal (and possibly alina) running in the village in the sneak peak we got in september
3. Tolya and Tamar: Alina and Mal meet Tolya and Tamar
4. Wylan: No explanation needed but AHHHHHH. says a lot that he’s the only character with the track as simply their name. superior king
5. Come Sail Away: Dramatic moment on Nikolai’s ship, where they first set sail or smth
6. Brother: Jordie flashback (SO SOON THO, assuming the soundtrack is in order).
7. Arriving at the Island: Nikolai’s ship docks at an island where they look for the sea whip, I haven’t read S&S in a hot minute so don’t count me on this one
8. Crows ambushed: :( Probably involves Pekka
9. Return of the Useless Grunt: No idea who this is... definitely something to do with Ketterdam and the Dregs tho
10. I’m Here for the Killers: Kaz related I’m guessing, perhaps him talking to the crows and reminding what they’re here for, inducing a ruthless mindset
11. Matthias fights: Hellgate scene ay
12. The Night We Met: Christina Strain posted this on twitter with an explosion emoji so I think we’re safe to assume it’s for wesper!! so we ARE getting tannery scene?? I’m so confused haha
13. Become the Blade: It’s mal doofuses
14. Jesper’s Past: AHHHHHH
15. Hope is Dangerous: Inej, a darker moment for her character this season (perhaps the way she is ‘tested’ that Amita referred to in an interview a long time ago?). Or maybe this is the scene in the trailer where she is fighting the Shu warrior?
16. Shu Han: Party arrives in Shu Han I’m guessing, the crows are involved too I bet since they seem to be in Shu Han in the trailer
17. The Disciple: Something to do with s&b, possibly the apparat? I need to reread that series before s2
18. I Can’t Lose You: Malina (perhaps alludes to Darkling’s remark “Are you prepared to sacrifice that which is most precious to you?”)
19. Deserve Her: Kanej or Malina, could be Helnik but I have no idea where they’re going with Nina and Matthias and if they will even meet other than in Matthias’s dreams
20. Chased: Not sure, either crows or Mal and Alina again
21. Battle at the Moat: Was this where Wylan was with Kaz and he was throwing a bomb at Tamar? I was never sure if Tamar was actually part of that scene or if they were different ones. Either of those shots are definitely involved her though
22. Stronger Than An Emerald: I’m guessing this is related to Pekka (Emerald Palace), and definitely is true since Kaz ended up refurbishing the place and renaming it The Silver Six (adorable btw). But if so, does that mean the crows have now returned to Ketterdam? Or has Pekka Rollins joined them in Shu Han? Or did they never go to Shu Han in the first place?
23. We Can Do This: Perhaps the scene with Kaz, Jesper, Wylan, Tolya, Tamar, Nikolai, and Adrik where they are watching the nichevoya and about to attack?
24. Final Goodbye: Crows part with s&b crew, or maybe the darkling and alina. Or if they reach the end of r&r and mal is about to sacrifice himself for alina?
25. Let Me Be Your Monster: Darkling, move on
26. Loss ad Sacrifice: Never mind, THIS is probably where mal sacrifices himself?? Or maybe Genya and the nichevoya?
27. Hope for the Future: Ending theme, perhaps ties in with the Inej track
28. How Will You Have Me: this is going to be the best scene in the show.
29: Rise And Fall: idk man probably s&b related
Notes:
- this season is going to be INSANE. i’m really excited and scared because I’ve been waited for this for two years and... wow.
- no Nikolai track? Maybe ‘come sail away’ is for him?
- hyped for march 10 when i will be able to listen to them and analyze all of these further!

Oho~ I hope you don't mind if I send a lot! 3, 6, 18 for Ein, 31 for Aikawa and 44, 48, 49 and 50 for both! :D
Aaa i dont mind dww! Ty for asking :DD
Ein ♥️
3, what first drew me to her.
Before Ein and Aikawa my favourite was Aohara, but it quickly changed to adoring Ein, What really drew me to her is her dress actually. I thought “wow her dress is cuteee I’m gonna pay attention to her more” and i fell in LOVE.
6, do i have any petnames / nicknames for her
YES. I call her prettygirl. It stemmed from me rambling about her in class whilst i was persuading my friend to read and watch hri (success, gonna persuade her to join tumblr next >:D). She called her pretty so i was like “yes yes she is prettygirl” so now i just call her prettygirl whenever i talk about her irl XD.
18, do i prefer angst or comfort, or both (for her)
ANGST. Im sorry ein but <\33 i cant resist.
A little comfort is nice at times but angst all the way.
Aikawa!!
31, am i ashamed of liking him?
Sorta, i had a few old friends (just to preface this by saying i didnt leave the friendship because of a manga 😭) that were like “doesn’t he like eugenics 😬” and i told them “yeah i obviously don’t support that hes insane i just like his character” and then I realised that maybe aikawa wasnt the best silly of choice for my brain.
BOTH!!
44, what season do they remind me of?
For ein, definitely spring, 100%. When i think of spring, i think of flowers, and Ein reminds me of flowers for no reason.
For aikawa, id have to say late autumn, specifically late. I dont know why but its so fitting 😭
48, my favourite feature of their designs!
OO OKAY.
So for ein, its the dress and bow. I ADORE lolita fashion sm!!
For aikawa, id have to say his hair, its similar to mine (the type of hair not style) but mines thinner than his. AND HIS HAIR IS SO FUN TO DRAW!
49, favourite personality trait!!
For ein, its her childishness. Its hard to explain but its so cute how she was excited by the rain and scared of thunder 💞. And also the manga panels where shes swinging her legs when she’s sitting on the railings aaaaaa.
For aikawa, its how smart he is. Im not sure if I dreamed about this or something but i so clearly remember him talking about a hypothesis about the lightning power, talking about ionising and stuff like 😍😍 in a world where people die 24/7 he’s casually just making hypotheses about stuff i love him.
50, fav song / playlist / quote / headcanon for them!!
So ein, my FAVOURITE headcanon that people can PRY off of my cold, dead hands is that shes not 12 like the wiki says 😭 have you seen how tall she is shes atleast 14-15.
And also, some lovely quotes:
“Boom” - ep 9 anime
“When enemy comes, you are in my way” - 152.5, extra chapter. (Can be found on tenkuushinpan.com)
ALSO BEFORE SHE COULD SPEAK THE LITTLE NOISES SHE MADE 💞💞💕 cutie pie 4ever.
I dont think i have any songs for her apart from ��angry too” by lola blanc (ein revenga au btw haha) and, i dont know how to explain it but Melanie Martinez’s “crybaby” album suits her sm!
And!! For Aikawa, my favourite song i like for him is “oh ana” by mother mother!
(Songs may be slightly ooc but its kinda them)
And some aikawa quotes just because :
“This calms me down like no other.” - ep 9, again. We all know that one scene XD
“Since im inferior, i’ll bleed to death. Fair’s fair. That’s completely in line with my doctrine.” - direct quote from chapter 204
“I wish i could see my mom.. just once more before i die..” - chapter 204, again.
#tenkuu shinpan#high rise invasion#Aikawa Mamoru#Ein#Ask game things#This was so fun!! i swear i could talk about them (especially ein) for HOURS#if you want more elaboration on eins age hc then i will elaborate!#thanks again!! :3#also i have had a LONG day so the grammar might be off and it might seem incoherent so apologies in advance!

Ninjago Crystalized E22 - E30 thoughts
forgot this was in my drafts
EP 22
ronin is a legend. he got done so dirty like... he had such a good arc in s5 only for the writers to revert him to a generic thief. and the ninja were just chill with getting him locked up in ninjago’s prison for the worst criminals?? what the hell guys. add onto this how corrupt/ incompetent the leadership and justice systems in ninjago seem and... phew, that’s some bootlicking from our favourite little legos /hj
nya knowing stuff about plants is so cute. let them have more interests outside of ninja-ing!
the production value on these fights really is good
oh wow master wu could really use an elemental dragon right about now!
"i fished out the last one" LOL
doing it again in the same canal LMAO thats an L having to give wu mouth to mouth. also not sure that’s what you should do with someone who still has water in their lungs
EP 23
aww cute jaya moments
nya has her powers back! wow i sure enjoyed her well developed arc that was so worth them bringing her back!! /s
aww i love these kids having their own little counterattack. kiddos aren’t your families looking for you?
love how antonia went from wanting to quit to being adamant they should fight back
"i am not about to lead a bunch of children against the embodiment of evil and darkness!" soooo like every other season? "that never stopped you before!" TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUTTA MY MOUTH LOL DRAG HIM
kind of surprising just how many times wu wants to quit and others have to remind him that ninja never quit, my brother in fsm you taught them that
btw this should have been the s10 ending just oni instead of the overlord. still mad about how rushed that season was.
EP 24
honestly idc about lloyd’s whole angst with his dad, they act like sensei garmadon never existed. evil garmadon hasn’t even been around long enough for lloyd to be super disappointed in him on a personal level like that. why can’t he instead be angry at this garm because he’s not the father he remembers and only serves as a walking reminder that he’ll never see sensei garmadon again.
dragon form let’s goooo
side note i miss lloyd saying dregon
omg the ice emperor are we actually talking about this
oh we're just gonna brush over it and make it a joke. got it.
RONIN MVPPP
borg tower yet againnnn also this guy was so focused on his projects he didn’t realise the apocalypse was happening? i love him
pixal: ronin why are you helping us?
WOW WE REALLY JUST IGNORED SEASON 5 HUH JUSTICE FOR RONIN
EP 25
few notes here bc i was too busy staring at the lava
the way he softly calls coles name when he wakes up ToT
kai fighting by himself to protect cole dsfgsd lowkey wish that fight had been extended for the wump but also so skylor can come just in the nick of time
i like the implication that skylor doesnt keep those powers forever, she has to touch an elemental master again to “recharge” so to speak. makes her much less op so that’s cool.
wu broadcasting on all frequencies but wouldn’t the bad guys hear him too?
that transition from the ninja running over the manhole to lloyd and garmadon being in the sewers is super cool. i love cinema.
lloyd's argument with garmadon gives the implication he's mad at him for never being a good father but THATS A MOVIE PLOT NOT THE SERIES ARRRRGHH
what could’ve been cool if instead they made lloyd not want to embrace his oni side bc he's scared of the anger and resentment building up in him over all these years of being the green ninja. y’know like the fandom keeps harping on about but is never actually portrayed in the show.
one thing i like about these new seasons is the clear motifs and musical character themes. paper delivery professionals for the win.
the paper kids wearing home made outfits with pots on their heads gives me such codename kids next d00r vibes
actually i like these post apocalyptic vibes, with everyone trying to look for each other and hiding but rallying secretly.
aww that happy moment with the family then kai and skylor hhhhngngng if only they delved more into skylor and her childhood crying
EP 26
omg kai finally having his speech skills back!!!
weeeeell kinda. actually it's effective lol he's so cute with kids.
had to pause this skylor and kai moment bc im dying from cringe. also lmao all these seasons and they weren't really together? oh he hasn't even spoken to her all this time?? skylor was at nya's funeral i swear ToT
here's an F for the lava fans. it was a pleasure shipping with you o7
zane is broken yet agaaaaim
if jay and the others could figure out the hint about the newspapers then surely the bad guys could
RACER 7 I MISSED YOUUUUUUUU
also she's basically antonia lmao could they not have thought of a different design
"that paycheck of yours? kiss it goodbye"
I LOVE HER
stop fakeout deathing me with zane lmao we've done this 50 times already. wow she gave up pretty quickly huh.
oh for god's sake they'll reverse the fakeout death THAT quickly? i give up. and he lives just because of an emotional speech? please
can't believe tommy made a big deal about this and made everyone think they would split up somehow. oh wait he does that all the time and the fandom runs away with it every time. if you wanted emotional moments for zane and pixal you had a story about suppressing grief and trauma right there! why was pixal ok with him completely turning off his emotions earlier anyway?
oh well pixal's squeal of delight was adorable though
EP 27
lloyd: relying on others isn’t weak!
cheers i’ll drink to that. again this could have been really impactful after an arc about trusting too much to mistrusting too much to finally hitting that balance.
cuta jaya moment but nya's arc this season is basically generic “believe in yourself” and like. we've done that before. they literally just brought her back to return to the status quo for the “last” season.
racer 7: speed. i am speed.
ok i know i complain about ignoring the old seasons but at least they tried to tie in the other new seasons like calling vania and benthomar and all that. it's basically a replacement for when previous seasons would bring back the other EMs and such and i guess it makes sense since this is a different era of ninjago. all of that falls apart when they insist on bringing back characters like garmadon though...
oh finally they didn’t fall into the canal for once!
oh no if they make cole and vania get together i’m gonna...read the entire hs epilogues and hs2. worst thing i could think of.
the others are either gonna find another way to find out what happened and come to help them in the nick of time, or this was just a way of explaining why no one else came to help.
EP 28
oops i watched the final eps drunk after a party and I still haven’t gone back to rewatch them ^^; umm fun moments, dragon form was ???? out of nowhere and should have had a whole season centred around achieving this form, Nya’s character regressed, rushed ending considering how much history they had to tie up, llorumi bad and i miss those little legos already
#ninjago#ninjago crystalized#ninjago liveblog#if anyone actually reads this feel free to comment on anything#there's just. so much that could have been done better this season#my posts#dori watches ninjago

hello hello! i had the absolute fuckall busy 2days, hope u didnt mind the accidental ghosting. i kept wanting to reply but i was feeling too tired to do it lmao. hello! hope ur doing well! i absolutely love the word coinkydink btw, im stealing it thank u. the fact!!!!!!!! that u do music production!!!!!!!! so cool!!!! consider me amazed yayy. ive always been unhealthily obsessed with chan's vocals, seeing him sing, esp with as much love and enjoyment/passion as he does is chills inducing to me. and yeah!!! his skills are so impressive, esp 3racha with rockstar album i very much agree!! i still cant pick a favorite song, and its funny bcs that's seldom the case no matter how much i love the whole album. cover me was played a lot tho (i was soo proud of hyunjin!!) and their vocalss yess!! seungmin han i.n leeknow and then ofc chan felix hyunjin changbin, they all did such good jobs, and their voice shined a notch brighter yes!! (mildly obsessed everytime changbin sings btw i am a sucker for it) their vocal heavy songs have always been some of my beloved!!!! never-ending story that i never get enough of, levanter and in christmas evel the way 24-25 was my immediate favorite! skz and ballads is smth mind-scratchingly wonderful, like always. what are some of your other favorite kpop groups?? what genres do u like as well, like i really love and find myself obsessed with k-indie, if we are talking korean language songs? what kind of songs do u like and listen to!! just wanted to know more abt u as well!! esp now that ik u produce too!! and just wanted to say ur art!!!! its so amazing and gorgeous!! so talented!!
^^apologies if i sound mildly incoherent (ik i do) its so damn cold outside both my face and brain have made it a mission to resemble chunks of ice cream so im!! thinking in circles p ls excuse. hope u have a good day an amazing week and great end of year and holidays!!
no worries at ALL dude the holidays are crazy, i really like this secret santa project but there’s so much else going on it’s also a lot 😅 yes! i’m stoked you liked rockstar. i thought it was so good, i was really in love with the songs/choreo/vibes and the members all seemed so happy! OMG YES Changbin’s voice is so good…why doesn’t he sing more it’s crazy…i have rewatched their conodoll episode a couple times because all their voices are just wonderful to listen to
i like 24-25 too! and that music video is just too sweet, it gave me cavities lmao. my fave kpop groups are skz, txt, and my OG (and forever) kpop band is shinee! i’ve been getting into xdinary heroes too. it seemed like everyone released amazing EPs this october-november, i was living for it. good music was raining down left and right.
i like so many genres in all languages! rock, punk, electronic, indie—i used to listen to a lot of k-indie (nell, the black skirts, the koxx, clazziquai) but now i don’t really know any more recent bands. i’d love to hear what your favorite songs/bands are!! i’m in a finding-new-music phase right now. i just found out about this new zealand band called the beths, their album “expert in a dying field” is a lyrical masterpiece.
thank you for your sweet compliments!! haha i’m trying to get better at portraits…oof, sorry it’s so cold where you are! bundle up and i hope you get some sun soon!! i’m in california so it’s actually really nice weather. exactly like the rest of the year. i do miss having seasons. but it’s also nice to go to the beach and not freeze lmao
best of luck in the final week before the holidays!! gonna be a crazy one i think, i have to bake stuff until my oven gives up and cries

How did you get into hawkami since you don’t usually watch CF? And btw where are all of the gifs of their scenes from last night?! I can’t believe ZERO exist now and it’s been almost 24 hours since the ep aired. Unheard of for other shows lol
I used to watch CF religiously until my interest in it diminished until I was only slightly paying attention. It’s sandwiched in between med and pd so changing the channel is kind of useless lol. I ended up paying attention a lot more last season again and then when I found out brett dalton got cast I knew I needed to actively watch this season.
Violet and Hawkins just happened to be a pleasant surprise lol. One of those ships that I don’t think the writers ever thought would catch the way they did with the fandom. I remember the first time I saw Hawkins, I hoped we would see him again. Just a new man to thirst over LMFAO. Then we got those first interactions between him and violet and the sparks just flew. They were incredibly cute, had great chemistry, and just made the show feel fresh again. Everything we’ve gotten from them has been so great that with gallo intruding and not minding his own business, im afraid they’re going to get ruined because this is derek haas we’re talking about. Seriously!!! I’ve been on the lookout. Im surprised there hasn’t been any except one gifset. i can’t imagine its the tag system blipping that badly since gifsets from last nights ep of cpd are already floating around. I don’t torrent anymore so I have to wait on logoless sites to upload the episode so as soon as they do, I’ll be giffing them.

OKAY I HAD TIME TO THINK ABOUT THESE (thanks you for making this ask game BTW!)
3. What's a scene that you think is underrated?
- 4x19: Adam's funeral and the comment about Sam becoming John (which he takes as a compliment when Dean clearly doesn't). This ep is probably the closest they get to discussing their Daddy issues tbh.
- 8x08: Sam & Cas in the cartoon world, where Sam gives the speech about not running away from problems anymore that motivates Cas to do the same (feel like it gets ignored over the Deancas scenes)
- 8x19 Dean meeting Naomi. THE most twisted villain, the amount of damage she did caused with "I admire your loyalty, I only wish he felt the same"
- 12x10 ending w/ Dean & Sam tell Castiel how much they appreciate him! I love the bickering in this ep but am such a hoe for them just TALKING OUT their issues.
12. Rank the eras and opinions on it (1-5/6-7/8-11/12-15)?
Before I go into it my season-by-season rank is 4, 5, 8, 1, 2, 3, 12 11, 13, 9, 15, 6, 7, 14, 10
1. 1-5: TIGHTLY written, every ep and conflict felt like they mattered and would pay off (and usually did), character and family dynamic development that always felt grounded/realistic. Cons are the misgoyny, racism and homophobia (def don't miss the only female characters being Innocent Mom, Evil Skank or Girl With Knife) but that's the 2000s baby
2. 12-S15: Love the overall tone and the show expanding to include more hunters, allies, universes, etc. Sadly these seasons would introduce the most INTERESTING and COMPELLING concepts...only to do little to nothing with them. Wayward Sisters, Empty, Banes twins, Witch!Sam, apocalypse hunters, death of the author, and (obvs) Dean/Cas. Even Jack! All his relationships were more tell than show, never fully developed on-screen. ESPECIALLY him and Cas! They have 2-3 whole scenes together in S13. Jack's born, but Cas is dead. Cas returns, but Jack leaves. They find Jack, but Cas was kidnapped and then Jack gets trapped. The show just kept following Dean and Sam from crisis to crisis with little room to breathe. The era is so cool in theory and a great playground for fanon, but...ugh.
3. 8-11: Some of THE dumbest writing decisions happen this era, usually to cause manpain or brother drama. But Carver did reign things in a bit with more overarching plots and storylines again, especially in S8 and S11. The trials! Rowena and Crowley! Re-introduction of Chuck! Purgatory! Cas and Claire! Jody and Donna! Sam's "God" visions! The Baby episode! Also nostalgic because this was when I finally got internet access and joined the fandom.
4. 6-7: Besides having a few of my fave eps (Death's Door, Man Who Would Be King, etc.) mostly unmemorable and all over the place. Like, you can TELL they didn't have any idea what to so once they ended the Kripke arc and threw anything and everything at the wall to see what stuck. Resurrected grandpa? Sure! Cas is evil now? Cool! Ancient monsters that can be killed by cleaning supplies? Why not? Wait, we need Dean and Sam drama...right, let's make up a childhood friend Sam has never mentioned for Dean to kill! And give Dean a Reneesmee monster daughter for Sam to kill! We're so good at writing!
23. What are some lores/world building that you love from Post s5?
- The morality of monsters and bad guys. We got redeemed vampires (Benny), witches (Rowena), demons (Crowley), werewolves (Garth), nephilims (Jack), etc. The MOWs are inconsistent but SO GOOD when they take this route. One of my faves is the Shapeshifter in 13x04 who becomes a Grief Counselor to use her abilities to help people
- Purgatory! Love the vibes, the every-man-for-himself energy, how harsh it feels
- The Trials! These crazy stakes! Prophets! Sealing the gates of hell! Angels falling!
- Apocalyse World! Again, the VIBES! Michael vs. Lucifer is supposed feel so world-ending. So to see a world DEVASTATED by their war? Insane! And Apocalypse!Michael was a cool villain, very strategic and focused, knowing what alliances to make and how to make the situation work in his favor
24. What are some lores/world building that you love from s1-5?
- The angels: so cool before they got nerf'd. Perfect soldiers, orders from above, varying levels of cynical, too powerful to be seen by eyes, SMITING! I miss the smiting.
- THE SEALS! I wish we saw more of them but the creativity! The stakes! And Lilith being the final seal remains one of THE best twists!
- The Trickster! I love Gabe as an archangel too, but do miss him messing with the Winchesters to teach 'em a lesson
- Special Children! All of these powerful lonely people who've been weird all their life, thrown into a hunger games where they either kill or survive! So crazy.

Got a jester in my mail That only knew how to whine and flail Though they thought themselves a stud They were nothing but a dud So I decided to give you something new That’s about to come into view Since kind is not how they abide I present to you my
Netflix Castlevania Season 3 Safety Navigation Guide
all under the cut cuz it got long
(I went through all the episodes and found/timed all of the scenes that had Hector in abusive/unnerving situations and any scenes that had full on nudity and sex, as well as nabbed the images that happen just before the beginning of each “bad” scene, you’re welcome
EP.1 Bless your Dead Little Hearts
12-12:50
Hector walks onto screen with swollen shoe-less feet, bloody, beaten, and collared; he is referred to “it” and is degraded before having a guard drag him away
13:20-14:21
Hector is dragged naked across the floor and thrown in a jail cell and then tossed moldy bug filled food
24:42-End
Hector has freezing cold water tossed onto him to clean him as he sputters shivering on the floor
EP.3 Investigators
19:59-End
Lenore tries to “befriend” Hector by feeding him and talking to him like a he’s a frightened animal, but when hector manages to grab her in a choke hold against his cell door she beats him, tossing him around his cell and taunts him, telling him he’s a “good boy”
EP.4 I have a Scheme
19:21-25:35
Lenore continues to try to “befriend” hector via covering basic needs, nothing “horrible” happens during this it really is just a conversation though Hector and Lenore know they are not talking to eachother as equals, plus Hector is still bruised and beaten and only has a blanket to cover him
EP.6 The Good Dream
Beginning-8:46 ( no image since it’s the opening scene of the episode)
After providing hector with some clothes, Lenore offers to take Hector outside for a bit but there’s a condition, he has to wear a leash and collar; she claims she doesn’t believe it’s necessary and that it’s at the insistence of Striga, he begrudgingly agrees and they go for a walk. Upon exiting the castle they talk about what it’s like to be a vampire and their relations with Carmilla, Striga and Morana (the conversation is very misleading cuz she is leading and training Hector) before back to the cell block where she tugs on the leash and leads him to a new cell with a starw bed, with a pillow and blanket, with a table and a book to read (a book written by, about, and for vampires btw) and then asks him to pass his lead back through the cell bars and his does, which she uses as an opportunity to get very close in his face as she un-collars him and whispers “good boy” in his ear before leaving
EP.8 What the Night Brings
15:14-19:37
Lenore continues to manipulate an unknowing Hector and lies about a ring shes wearing and only just put on for this occasion saying that she and her fellow vampire sisters (metaphorical) each wear the same ring to symbolize their loyalty to eachother, and after more talking asks Hector if he would like to run away with her
EP.9 The Harvest
HOOO BOY LADS!! At this point if implied sex makes you uncomfortable then you’re really gonna hate EP.9, personally I think that this episode alone should’ve bumped the shows rating from MA to R, which also really sucks if you loved S1+2 of Castlevania but aren’t ok with this subject cuz the sex is mixed in with the other characters stories which include EXTREMELY major plot points. I tried my best to say the least, but everything happens so fast it’s hard to keep track of when each bit begins and ends. (I will provide the images in the order each sex scene begins and then mark each time stamp accordingly)
WITHOUT FURTHER ADO
Why yes, yes it is Alucard/Adrian, Taka and Sumi have decided to surprise him and treat him to sex (full on frontal nudity, titties out the works, the only thing you don’t see is their crotches), but really it’s just a ploy to kill him due to the fact that they’ve both been so mistreated and isolated by Cho, Taka and Sumi have tricked themselves into believing that Adrian wishes to do the same to them and decided that they need to kill him in order to learn the things they wish to learn and move the castle. They cuff Adrian and the metal threads through his arms, chest, legs, and through his bed frame while they position themselves over him to stab him through his chest.
I truly do feel that Lenore put that straw bed in Hectors cell for her own benefit (more titty,stockings, panty removal) Lenore gets Hector to repeat over and over again how much he’ll do anything for her and how loyal he is to her, and while he’s doing that she slides her loyalty ring (slave ring, yes she calls it that in EP.10) on him and therefore binding the ring to him and giving her full control over any night creature he makes (yes she made rings for Carmilla, Striga, and Morana too), and the binding magic of the ring when first applied is not pleasant nor can he talk it off without his heart stopping.
so it begins:
4:24-5:37 (Adrian, Sumi, andTaka)
6:43-7 (Lenore and Hector)
8:46-9:04 (Adrian, Sumi, and Taka)
11:17-11:40 (Lenore and Hector)
13:30-13:51 (Adrian, Sumi and Taka)
16:06-16:41 (Both)
19-20:32 (Both)
And then Finally
EP.10 Abandon all Hope
12:04-13:57 (again no image cuz it has a black screen before hand)
And we’re back to full frontal nudity Adrian, Sumi, and Taka, as Adrian tries to get them to understand that he wasn’t misleading them and yet they refuse to believe him as he struggles to get out. Sumi and Taka poise to strike him dead until Adrians sword comes flying out of the darkness and slits both of their throats, later after breaking free he is crying on the singed rug in his old room by his fathers wedding ring under a blanket.
Thus, marking the end of the sexual in nature scenes mixed throughout this season.
Season 4 when??
play safe y’all, hope this was helpful

TMS S3: GROUP A
THE MASKED SINGER SEASON 3 GROUP A/ GROUP 1: (contestants 1 - 6)
EP 3x01: CLUES & MORE: RECAP for remaining 5:
SPOILERS BELOW!!!
KANGAROO
CLUES:
Location: Outdoors: “Australia”
Location: Next to a /in a yard of a “peach coloured” building with arch/vault-style architecture
VISUAL CLUES:
Sign: OUTBACK (with the U being in the shape of horseshoe)
Sign: Yellow “road sign” with an arrow pointing down (”spiraling down”)
MIB as papparazzi/press following her - taking pics, media attention (for “the wrong reasons”)
Gramophone on a tree branch
Boxing bag - the kangaroo boxing/hitting the boxing bag
Jump rope - the kangaroo jumping over a jump rope (made of a vine...held by MIB)
AUDIO CLUES/VOICE OVER:
”Like most of you watching, I’m a survivor.”
��I recently lost a person, who held my familys heart together. Then, by my own admission, I found myself in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.”
“But I’m here to do what kangaroos do best - bounce back.”
“I have to fight for my family. And show them that bullies never win.”
“I am beyond terrified - I’ve never done anything like this before. But I’m not about to lose the chance to realize the dream I’ve always had.”
“To all the survivors out there -- This one’s for you.”
ON STAGE CLUES:
Song choice: “Dancing on My Own” by Robyn
Look/Costume: The kangaroo has a pouch (indicates female), but also has a red/silver boxing outfit & gloves (indicates male). Outfit colours: red & silver. Important: there is a crown on the back of her robe.
Stage: hexagon-shaped mirrors (5 of them) surrounding her/behind her [if my other guess is correct, then that stage design is a “clue”]
Height: Tall-ish...almost the same height as host Nick. A bit shorter, around 175cm, probably.
Mic hand: Right
Talking: “One of my greatest fears is being vulnerable. And this year I’ve had no other option than to be vulnerable. But...with this kangaroo costume I feel like I can get my superpowers back.” + [breathes in/sighs heavily before the song starts]
GUESSES:
I HAVE NO NAMES OF MY OWN. -- I thought she was this certain female artist, because the voice kinda seemed familair (sounded like hers to me), but none of the clues and other things seemed to fit. And after checking the clues it seems to confirm it cannot be her, cause nothing matches. Also... to me she doesn’t sound like any of the singers I thoughts she could be based on the clues, so... I havent actually figured her out...
I think people online are correct, and it’s a certain “reality star” (gramophone = reference to her dad being a sound engineer on a well-known past TV show) Though I am considering a few more options - mostly other reality stars/youtubers/family members of celebs... particularily one name. If my guess here is correct, then just like Llama, she would have a connection to a previous TMS contestant...but since I am not that familiar with her singing voice, I cannot be sure. But she has lost family members in the past few years, she has been in a media scandal, and you can even explain the australia thing kinda... so...until I hear more of her, I’ve got one name mainly in mind. But I wont name it until I’ve heard her sing at least once more.
POSSIBLE MEANING OF CLUES.
Survivor = the title of a “Destiny’s Child” hit song
Lost a family member recently = either her family member (parent, grandparent?) died or they parted ways (were cut ouf of each others lives)
Gramophone = possibly a reference to a Grammy nomination/win. Or just music/sound/audio
Outback = possible connection to Australia
“spiraling down” road sign + papparazzi following her = she’s been in a media scandal “recently”
Crown = King/Queen
LLAMA
CLUES:
Location: Radio station/Mixing studio - mixing console (close up)
Location: Pottery making “class”
VISUAL CLUES:
Mixing console - close up of a studio/radio station mixing console
23.3 The Wool (name of the radio station/show)
Red lightbulb in the studio
Photo of a bull (the animal)
Playing cards: Ace of Spaces & Jack of Spades). Two black suit cards showing (Jack Black)
Sounds of Seattle - title of a vinyl album
Romancing a llama: pottery
AUDIO CLUES/VOICE OVER:
"Mi-Mi-Mi-Mi-Mix it up!”
“Good morning, Nerd herd! You’re listening to The Wool. Where we’re all cool. No Bull.”
“I’m here for one reason only - to have a laugh. And what’s funnier than a Llama? (laughs at his own joke)”
“You may call me a joker. But I’d like to get serious for a minute. The song I’m singing tonight is my favourite track for celebrating love with that... special someone. There’s nothing like being swept up by it’s deep, profound lyrics. It’s a tune that really gets me in the mood for romance. I can’t wait to sing it for you tonight.”
“Llama out!”
ON STAGE CLUES:
Song choice: “She Bangs” by Ricky Martin
Look/Costume: Dressed as a tourist - “hawaiian” style shirt,, photo camera around his neck. Llamas tongue out of his mounth, on the side.
Height: he is around 180cm - about the same height as host Nick (their shoulders are on about the same height)
Mic hand: Left
Talking: “umm.. This whole costume just spoke to me... My vibe... I wear digs like this in real life.” (answering the question about his costume & it’s looks)
GUESSES:
Drew Carey (TV host/comedian/actor...)
POSSIBLE MEANING OF CLUES.
23.3 Wool = His show (The Drew Carey Show) had, during it’s 9-season long run, a total of 233 episodes.
Photo canera prop = His hobby is photography. Actually, it’s more than just a hobby - he has been accredited press photographer during many (sports) events.
Radio = He was a radio operator during the time he served in the Marine Corps. Also..he’s hosted a radio show (radio DJ) during his later career
Red light in the room = photography reference. In the DarkRoom red light is used when developing photo film/photographs.
Buddha figurine (Dalai Lama/Llama joke) = He is a buddhist.
Joker = he is a joker aka comedian
Seattle = He is the co-owner of a Seattle Football Club.
Playing cards = He took part in the celebrity poker game in 2003, where he did better than Jack Black did (played against Jack Black)
Nerd herd = He did take part in Zack levis (Chuck) “Nerd herd” lightsaber race one time at a Comic-Con convention.
Nerd herd = his show (DCS) & character were/was about nerds/was a nerd
Llama’s side tongue = early in his stand-up comedy days he had a joke with a side-tie (it looked visually very similar to what the llama’s tongue looks like - he just added some wires & tape to do “the trick” of swinging the tie to the side)
BONUS: He knows last years winner, “The Fox Mask” - they did “Whose Line is it Anyway” together, so... connection...
SPOILER ALERT: Llama is the mask who will be voted off next - in ep 2 (on Wed, Feb 5th). But while his voice might not be as trained as some other contestants, I loved his stage energy, and the comedy/fun he brought! One more song coming from him! And no, I am not sharing some secret info - they “accidentally” revealed the first two contestants, who get unmasked, so it’s been revealed by the network...for those, who notice small details...
MISS MONSTER
CLUES:
Location: Lady’s restroom/bathroom. The moster getting ready (coming hair, applying hairspray...)
Location: school hallway - lockers
VISUAL CLUES:

Itmes on the counter in bathroom/dressing room: Furspray (hairsray) can, pink bottle of some beauty product, three crystals (stones), a piece of sequin fabric

Purple furry diary/good luck charm/cosmetics bag/pencil box (with a face + kitty ears & unicorn horn) + a glittery pen
Lockers: Lockers numbered 10 (the ones she opens) & 11 (the one next to it)...with no other lockers having numbers on them
Miss Monster Locker: filled with images of S1 Monster, scrapbook flowers..etc...
Piece of paper on the locker door: Monster Hits.
Photograph of a cityscape (skyline with many skyscrapers) on the locker door [if I could only see the image better to know which city it is on it, that’d be one more clue]
AUDIO CLUES/VOICE OVER:
“When you become famous, people want you to look or act in a certain way. They forget that you started off as just a shy little monster.”
“It didn’t take long for me to be misunderstood. So I’m here to set the record straight. Just like my favourite creature in Season 1 did. The Monster. He made me feel. He re-wrote his story. It was fire!"
“And now this performer in pink wants to follow in his furry footsteps, But darlings... I’m nervous. Will you still love me without knowing my name?”
ON STAGE CLUES:
Song choice: “Something to Talk about” by Bonnie Raitt
Look/Costume: pink & purple/violet furry costume with a bowtie
Height: she is short-ish (shorter than host Nick). She looks very short (barely 5 feet - more Dolly P. height 152cm than Chaka K height 162cm)
Mic hand: Right
Talking: NO ON-STAGE TALKING!
GUESSES:
Chaka Khan
Dolly Parton (since the total number of Grammy noms that the 18 contestants have in combined in 69 & Robot as the first revealed one has had 24-25 of them, that leaves only 44-45 for everyone else, that rules out this person, because she alone has had 46 nominations...compared to C. Khan’s 22 noms)
POSSIBLE MEANING OF CLUES.
Number 10 = She has 10 Grammy Awards/wins. (interestinly: both D. Parton & C. Khan have 10 Grammy wins!)
Monster Hits = she has had (many) hit songs during her career
He made me feel = She has a song by the title “I Feel You” (1984 hit)
It was fire = She has a song by the title “Through the Fire” (1985)
Will you love me - that is (word for word) the title of of her her hit songs, “Will You Love Me?” (2007)
It was fire = She wrote the hit song “Fule to the Flame” (1967 hit) for Skeeter Davis.
Will you still love me? = She has/wrote a song titled “I will always love you”
Furspray/Hairsray = he was/is known for her big hair/haircut (managing that probably takes lots of hairspray)
FUN = FUN(K) #FUN KEY [FUN:KI] - she’s kinda the “queen of funk” (one of her albums is titled “FUNk This” (btw: Pun intended by her!)
TURTLE
CLUES
Location: school’s track & field event (Balzano Track Field) - contestants getting ready to run. The slow turtle surrounded by fast bunnies, all preparing for the event. [Slow & steady (turtle) wins the race]
Location: Schools track & field event - BANG! The race begings. The three other contestants (MIB as bunnies - wearing pink bunny ears - starting the race with a head start, all jumping on their blue bouncy balls)
VISUAL CLUES:
Turtle vs bunnies
BANG! in comic style - to mark the start of the race
The others (three bunnies) bouncing on blue balls whe n the race begins
Surf board - the turtle poliching/cleaning his poink & blue surf board
Pins on the track...popping the blue jumpy balls
Grilling burgers on an (outside) grill...on the track field.
Turtle crossing the finish line first (bunnies just going in circles, being stopped by pins on the way, or other reasons), as he has time to do other things & take it slowly, and then still get there first...with a burger in hand & winning the golden medal.
AUDIO CLUES/VOICE OVER:
"At the starting-line of my career I was surrounded by other hungry new-comers. It felt like everyone around me was fighting tooth-and-nail for the dream. And I watched as many of those stars burned too brightly, too quickly, and then fizzled down”
“I’m a turtle, because I’m always taking it step-by-step.”
“Slow and steady wins the race. But now I feel like I’m ready to break out of my shell. After years of preparation I would love to make a big splash. So I don’t want anyone to cross that finish line before me.”
ON STAGE CLUES:
Song choice: “Kiss from a Rose” by Seal
Look/Costume: Punk/Rock-style, dressed in leather (pants, jacket), has a spike (hair)
Height: Short-ish (shorter than host Nick) - seems around 175cm. Small in size.
Mic hand: Right
Talking: “It’s hot. It’s really hot. And it’s heavy!” (when answering how doesn it feel to be in that costume and perform in it)
GUESSES
Jesse McCartney
Joey McIntyre PS. I tried connecting the voice to any boy-bands (of 1990s & 2000s), but I coukdnt. Even after some “research” - listening to each possible candidate...and IMO it’s none of them. The voices dont match, the heights doesn’t match---But it did sound like someone, who for me was a one-hit-wonder. Yeah, I only know that one song (and one more) from him... but voice seemed familiar.
POSSIBLE MEANING OF CLUES:
Surf board = that he is a surfer; that he is from Cali/Australia/somewhere which is known as being popular among surfers; that he has won Teen Choice Award(s) (this award in in the shape of a surfboard)
being surrounded by other new-comers at the start of his career = either he got his start through a (singing) competition and was one of many contestants fighting for the win AND/OR he got his start in a “boy-band” and was one of the youngsters looking for fame...
Surf board = Teen Choice Awards - winning several TCAs for his first/biggest hit song/album in 2005, and more. And he’s played a surfer character on a TV show
BSB references/connection - he was the opening act in 2005 for BSB during the European part of the tour.
Dream = he started in a boy-band with the name “Dream Street”
on stage presence/body language (movements) = very similar to J.M.
WHITE TIGER
CLUES:
Location: Football field. Tiger striking a power/winners pose.
Location: School hallway, lockers. Tiger walking in, shoving everyone out of his way.
Locatrion: School library (sitting behind a table, with his legs on the table)
Location: School hallway, lockers. MIB trying to get him to audition for TMS. MIB (fans) taking selfies with him.
VISUAL CLUES:
Golden plate/sign with text: Ultimate champion for clam shucking: 51 clams” (next to a golden clam shell)
Sign/ad on the wall: “Masked Singer tryouts 5/3.” + images of three past masks included: Eagle, Lion & Raven. Plus the text: “Hurry. Not for long" also written on it.
Sign on the all with images of past US presidents, including Abe Lincolns & the text/quote “Four Score and Seven Years Ago...”
The TMS golden mask throphee shown next to the lockers (as Tiger says “let’s party!”)
AUDIO CLUES/VOICEOVER:
“Ready to meet your next champion? My entire life I’ve sought out perfection, so choosing a mask with unlimited power like the White Tiger was a no-brainer.”
“I’ve had a giant career full of accomplishments. But when I imagine being on stage (and) singing, I’m a big old scared cat.*
“It’s been a while since I did something that scared me, so I’m here to concour yet anither challenge.”
“What’s my motivation? My fans! I don’t wanna let them down."
“So now I’m ready to get in that ring and smash the competition.”
“Let’s party!”
ON STAGE CLUES:
Song choice “Ice Ice Baby” by Vanilla Ice
Look/Costume: Dressed in “Egyptian style"
Height: very tall & big (much taller than host Nick) - over 190cm, looks about 2m tall
Mic hand: R & L (alternates)
Talking: “It’s the most powerful I’ve ever felt. Like I can concour anything. I never wanna take it off” (when answering what did it feel like when he first put on the costume/mask)
POSSIBLE MEANING OF CLUES:
He played during the 51st (51 clams) & 53rd (5/3) Super Bowl games.
The three past TMS masks shown are all animals that are parts of names of existing football teams: Ravens, Eagles, Lions. Meaning he is an athlete & specifically plays american football (NFL)
The Lincoln quote translates to “87 years ago...”, so number 87 is the clue here. This could be a reference to player No. 87.
He has had a very succesful career in his own field (sports). Singing is not his main job.
IF the voice-overs were done later, not during initial filming, then it’s possible that “smash” relates to the person smashing a lego-statue of a TV host during 2019/2020 New Years. Which in itself was supposed to be about his famous “Gronk Spike” during football games.
A tiger (albeit “regular”, not white) was one of the characters & costumes + name of the sports team in the Katy Perry video “Swish Swich”, where this athlete also appeared.
The Golden (Golden Mask) trophe - most likely a reference to his many wins (the trophees he/his team has won)
GUESSES:
Rob Gronkowski (Gronk, athlete, 198cm) = 99% certain it’s him
Because of the height alone (seems to be around/almost 2m = 6 feet 5) there are not that many possibilities at all. Even if we don’t listen to that voice or consider the clues. Based on height alone it can basiclaly be only one of these names: Dave Bautista (198cm); The Rock (196cm); Hulk Hogan (201cm); Tyler Perry (196cm); Brad Garrett (204cm); Joe Manganiello (196cm); Jeff Goldblum (194cm); Jason Mamoa (193cm); Tom Brady (193cm)..or the likes...
Even other possible names, like the ones listed by the panel, are not valid guesses, because of their height: John Cena for example is actually only 185cm tall. Also... several of these tall men are bigger/more muscular, so that makes it even easier to determine the name based on only the physical appeance...without even listening to the clues.
ROBOT
First mask to be voted out in ep 1
Havent listed his clues, cause there’s no use for them anymore, as he was voted off.
With his 86 tattoos he makes up for about half of all the 160 tattoos the 18 contestants have combined. With his 24-25 Grammy nominations he makes up about 1/3 of all the 69 noms the 18 contestants have combined. And quite many of the 88 gold records the 18 contestants have combined, belong to him (I don’t know the exact number, but most/all of his 10+ albums have gone gold, I think) - exact number depends on how they count it for this list.
<<<<< THIS IS WHAT GOES ON IN MY HEAD AFTER EVERY TMS SHOW/EPISODE. THIS IS HOW I CATEGORIZE THE INFO I HAVE INTO FOLDERS IN MY MIND. THIS IS HOW SPECIFIC I AM, AND HOW INTO DETAILS I GO. THIS IS HOW MUCH I PAY ATTENTION (while, most likely, missing a ton of more hints that I’ll only notice during re-watch) I JUST DECIDED TO WRITE IT DOWN...FOR ONCE.
BUT... unless I decide to cut some sleep time to do this again, I am probabky not gonna do this after every episode. Possibly for the first episode of every Group (so beside ep 1, also ep 4 & ep 7)

Hii, I'm new to the boyz, have seen two of their shows so far but like to get to know them more. Could you recommend me some blogs to follow and maybe what to watch to learn more about them? Have a nice day! 💛💙
yessss of course!!! u honestly could just start anywhere because tbz have so much content (most of it is subbed by creker/1thek btw) but it might be a little overwhelming so i’ll just break it down for u!
shows (marked with * are my personal recommendations just in case u didn’t wanna sit here and read thru this long ass post)
come on! the boyz/come on! the boyz rpg* - a mini web series where tbz do missions and other fun things!! the show has two season so far and its probs the best to start off with because of all the shows tbz have done, this series does the best at grasping tbz’s personalities!
the 100* - the show has 24 episodes (each ep is only like 7-14 minutes long) and that probs seems like a lot of eps but i promise its all worth it!! tbz are basically given 100 hrs to prepare for a mini concert and just the whole show in general is really cute! its my personal fave!!
flower snack shop - tbz’s official predebut show!! they run an actual restaurant and cook and sing for fans and just really cute and wholesome!! (it kind of drags on but there are so many iconic moments so i would recommend watching it!!)
the play* - i don’t know how many times i’m gonna say wholesome in this post so i apologize in advance but the play is my favorite show from their youtube channel and it is just on another level of wholesome! tbz are given free time to roam around and be themselves and it really is just the best show.
mission the boyz - basically just tbz traveling around the world, doing missions and taking us with them!!! (mission the boyz in seoul, mission the boyz in jeju, and mission the boyz in macau are my personal faves!!!)
off the boyz* - behind the scene content of tbz!! very wholesome and a++++ content!!
misc clips/content
dazed profiles* - if u haven’t seen tbz’s profiles yet please watch!! this was released before debut and the profiles do a really good job at capturing the boyz’s visuals! it’s also really helpful if you’re trying to put a name to a face!
threerangs first v live - threerang’s (kevin, jacob, and eric aka tbz’s foreign line) first ever v live. it’s filled with lots of awkwardness and bad jokes! (basically anything on tbz’s official v live channel is really good to watch esp if u wanna get to know the members!)
v live rec #1* - a predebut v live. they do a mini q and a here and so many of them get so emotional just talking about how happy they are to debut and how much tbz mean to them!! this v live was as ot12 as it gets!! so u know, if ur in the mood to cry and get ur heart ripped out, then definitely watch this.
blogs to follow (i’m 99% sure i’m forgetting people but there are so many tbz blogs recently and i can’t keep up but anyways, everyone tagged has a++ content and are just wholesome deobis who i admire very much.)
@fytheboyz / @jaehyunjae / @hwqll / @wonderhwalls / @nyuqyu / @mooniekevin / @hwalld / @tbzd / @er1csohn / @eriqsohn / @chanheegf / @moonsliqht / @sanqyeonn / @leesanqyeon / @baes-jacob / @theboyzvevo / @baejacob / @trouvezmoi / @incorrecttheboyz / @kmoonies / @thaboyz / @theboyzies / @chchanhee / @theboyz-engup / @hyyunjoon / @juyeons / @hyunjaehyun / @chanhees
#ask#another-atiny-blog#apparently the only word i know is 'wholesome' lol#i really need to expand my vocabulary#anyways i hope this helped!#please stan the boyz bc my mans sangyeon has 11 kids to feed

thjslove replied to your post
“do you think this could be end in one of them getting killed and...”
omg what CM receipts? ��
@thjslove cm is one of the most convoluted behind the scenes messes i have ever witnessed and i am just Astounded till this day like, i’ll bullet point for you because i Genuinely will be here writing this for 3 hours if i do details;
think of all the female cast members that have ever been on cm?? yeah?? a lot! well, the only ones who left in non suspicious circumstances? Lola Glaudini (elle) and Jennifer Love Hewitt (kate). Literally. The only ones.
one time (between seasons 8 and 9) they almost cancelled the show because aj cook and kirsten vangsness decided they didn’t like that their male costars were making $70,000 more PER EPISODE than they were (this was back when they did 24 eps a season so like... i’m not gonna do the math but that is A Lot Of Money). (they renewed it last day of renewals, it was the same year cote de pablo walked from ncis because of the same reason, legit the only reason they got anywhere was b/c they said ‘we both get raises or we both walk’.
btw while this was happening, minus Moore, the rest of the male cast was holding up negotiations so they got perks on top of being paid over 50% more than the women.
this sequence is the kicker
u know season six, the jj and prentiss absences???
it was because they both got fired, listed as ‘creative decisions’ (that’s important later), which basically seemed to amount to ‘we want both less women and for her to be younger than both of you’.
they fired aj cook flat out as her contract had expired that year, in the middle of a 2 parter, and didn’t even want to let her do an exit???? they legit had to fight for the right to have her to film an exit episode (they negotiatied 3 episodes, one for finishing the 2 parter, one exit, and one for when prentiss exited).
brewster’s contract had Not expired (also important later), they just only decided she should be in 8 episodes.
it’s important to the sequence of events that i mention outside influences, b/c the cm fans were PISSED. There was a straight up public outcry, i have Never seen a response like it in my many years of obsessive TV watching. People were Very fond of Prentiss and JJ and were Not impressed they were being booted as unnecessary to the narrative, those pesky creative decisions!!! the petitions and public support towards them were pretty incredible actually.
by that point there wasn’t much that could be done about Cook, but seeing the response CBS kept making Brewster film Way more than those 8 episodes she got slotted for actively dragging her along, Still fired but p much unable to find other work realistically??? b/c they kept calling her back in???
public support was still Overwhelmingly on the actresses side.
To the point that CBS started ardently claiming the actresses were fired for Monetary reasons. Yeah, they straight up lied, and still lie about it today. I have seen cbs affiliate websites print said lie bluntly in their articles (i no longer read cbs affiliate anything).
I listed the pay scandal first for perspective on the money lie. At that point i think the men on the cast were wearing about $110,000 an episode, and it got out Cook was earning about £50,000 an ep, and we never heard about Brewster’s salary But when i say she made a Big Deal over finally getting paid as much as the men in the past couple of years i mean it, so we can assume she was also being paid a lot less. My point being, if they needed to save money, it would have been more profitable for them to fire One man on the show than two women. They pay gap was that much.
so they lied, still lie, about why they fired them and it wasn’t even a good lie.
ANYWAY
i know the show’s writing isn’t really applicable but Prentiss and Seaver were never meant to be main characters on the show together, where they dragged out prentiss’ exit, they overlapped and Rachel Nichols had very little to do.
Anyway, by the time the late eps of the season were airing (and i assume they looked at how many viewers cut loose when brewster left) cbs straight up rang up aj cook and asked her to sign back on (why she was in the last ep despite only being hired for 3 eps that season). She said she hated them but she had a young kid at the time and regular work that was local was helpful (plus, u know, i bet it was a great ego boost).
the season finishes airing, it goes on hiatus with the cast listed 4 season 7 as the men, garcia, jj and seaver.
u know how i mentioned paget had a contract for s6 still but they cut her episodes down??? Well, CBS used the fact that they wouldn’t let her work on the show anymore despite being signed on as evidence that she was breaching contract if she didn’t go back as a regular for season 7. They threatened to sue her for breach of contract. The only reason prentiss was in s7 was because they used what they did against her that she had no power over to threaten her. So, u know, super nice.
meanwhile, they fire rachel nichols, don’t bother to actually tell her they’d done it!!! and she found out on fucking twitter (and rachel is such a nice person, and she was absolutely vilified and abused by every idiot on the internet too thick to realise none of the above was her fault jeez).
so s7 happens w/ the same cast as before, but brewster will Only work to contract and refuses to sign on again for s8. Understandable, tbh.
they hire jeanne tripplehorn, fandom is disgusting as usual, like, absolutely vile, not surprised just disappointed.
at the end of season 9 (they have 2 year contracts so like.. it was the end of her contract), despite everything in the storyline process indicating otherwise and how much of a farce for her character what went down was... Blake left???? No more Jeanne???
Not one peep from bts over what happened.
if that sounds suspicious to you, it is, one of the crew members let slip they’d all been gagged and were not allowed to talk about it. So cbs learnt it’s lessons in as such that they learnt to hide their shitty actions rather than not do anything shitty.
p sure there was another pay scandal in here somewhere too???
in terms of The Gay(tm), Reid was like, conceptualised as bi from the get go but that thing in season one with Lila happened so the execs said he could not possibly be bisexual. Yeah. Yeah u read that right. Most ppl laugh at that one and say uhm do you not know what bi is??? but honestly it was just an excuse they knew full well what they were doing imo
why? they did it again! the writers, producers and Brewster all agreed on a scene where an episode opens w/ prentiss waking up in bed with another woman, guess who nixed it!!!! cbs. They also put a gag order on That little fact too! Kirsten Vangsness, bless her, did a podcast a few years ago on afterellen (before it got fuckawful and was with it’s original owners) and, i’d say ‘let slip’ but she knowingly dropped that truth bomb knowing full well she shouldn’t have. I love her.
lately they’ve made brewster do “interviews” with some of those cbs affiliates where they try and get points??? for saying prentiss was gonna be gay??? like they’re not the ones removing the rep from the show??? and expecting a pat on the back for... refusing to have any kind of gay rep in a show that is by this point conspicuously straight (not that LA isn’t, but it’s not nearly as bad as cm).
the whole mess with Gibson is... Wild b/c as much as i Loathe the dude he supposedly attacked cbs would not just fire their white guy show lead for no reason and i didn’t see any above the level sites claim any funny business there, but he got fired and cbs rang up Brewster and asked her to be the show lead which, honestly, after being fired for being old and irrelevant must have been AMAZING.
she also takes the time to point out to anybody who asks about her and aj being fired for money reasons that no, it was not about money at all. She basically calls her bosses out for being liars in public interviews frequently and it’s Amazing.
i’m sure there’s more crap but i’m not recalling it rn
honestly cm bts drama is Wild and this doesn’t even get into the Patinkin drama (which while drama, is not actually anything to do with cbs).
Interestingly enough, it’s super hard to find out all this stuff unless u were in the fandom the whole time because they’ve bloody lied So Much it’s all everyone even believes anymore. It’s disgusting.
Still can’t believe ncis:la’s female cast has done this well for so long???? These are just CM’s reciepts, they have a history of doing this stuff over and over on multiple shows, i know of it as far back as when trek tng was airing in the 80′s and can name more in between.

Who Tube (Doctor Who YouTube) is hilariously terrible at the moment. You’ve got new fans being gatekept by old fans and then yelling at the old fans and then the old fans yelling back, people subtweeting each other on their channels “Some YouTubers, they know who they are”, people posting vicious rants as soon as episodes end--lots of really really toxic shit on both sides. Like. It’s hilarious--if you enjoy VERY thinly veiled misogyny on one side and blind adoration for progressiveness at the expense of decent writing on the other. If you listen to these people, it’s not very difficult to see where the canon schism between straight white “geek culture” males and anyone with a so labeled by said people SJW motivation come to blows. They both think the other side is just ignorant, and the constant lashing out is just. Wow. It’s really. Wow.
Saltiness ahead.
It frustrates me a lot, because I feel the show has been really hit and miss this season and the warring on YouTube is just another example of how you just can’t discuss this reasonably. It’s not all bad, but it’s certainly been far from all good. Some of it REALLY works, like for example Ryan’s dyspraxia and the decision to explore Yasmin’s character through her grandmother’s story, but some of it doesn’t. I was particularly dismayed today, spoilers, by James I being played through the lens of modern campness by Alan Cumming this week, turning the former monarch into a queer caricature (I know the guy most from his role in Spy Kids, Fegan Floop, which replays ENDLESSLY on british TV). I feel like a lot of the episodes of this season have been simply the characters thrown into chaos, bad guy is revealed to be an alien, then the Doctor gives a shockingly profound, emotional speech that makes you forget how awful some of the other parts were and you go away with ~feels~ and not much else, because all the endings are pulled out of the writer’s ass anyway. Just. That’s how I personally saltily feel about this show this season, like it’s been platforming for a bunch of different writers saying what they want to say about humanity through the Doctor’s mouth. Like she’s ceased to exist beyond her existence as that mouthpiece, and that in some ways the show has too. (just my opinion. anyway.)
But you can’t talk about this stuff. I find myself reading reviews and watching people who like the show and place no accountability on the show beyond being politically bold, and it drives me nuts. It doesn’t matter what form it comes in, so long as it’s pro-feminist, or it exposes people to history they might not have learned in class, or there’s a dude giving birth for 50% of the airtime. If I want to hear or discuss any challenge to those things, I find myself listening to purely negative reviews instead, and noping out when the person suddenly reveals halfway through that they believe that because men aged 18-40 is a big demographic, it only makes sense that they’re the group that are kowtowed to at every opportunity. Like wtf dudes, sorry you can’t hack that other people exist in the world and you aren’t being catered to 24/7 any more. Fuck off. So it’s no wonder the antis feel Doctor Who lovers are all SJWs and the pos!Who people are convinced that the antis are all racist misogynist fucks. (The showrunners do too afaik, and that isn’t helped at all by Chibnall and Jodie both being SO resistant to negativity that neither of them seem to be soliciting fan feedback that isn’t positive.) Is it hard to ask for objectivity, though? For something that comes down the middle? That isn’t racist and misogynistic, but maybe still cares about how the things we’re looking for in terms of representation are being handed to us? How about, at least, not having to listen to some people who are so entitled that they literally think that Jodie Whitaker shouldn’t have shot out any babies so that she can instead devote her entire life to making TV shows? (Seriously, I listened to one girl who thought that, and you could hear her contempt for people who have kids in every syllable.)
I’ve liked episodes of this season. The Kablam! episode was great, I only had minor complaints with the ep that I handwaved away because I felt like there was actually some dramatic tension. I liked episode 2 because it was idk. A fun adventurous romp and the characters all had flaws. I quite liked Rosa because it had the bones of something better, and that showed through in all the scenes where Rosa’s actress (Vinette Robinson, who was also in the Chibnall episode ‘42′, btw what nepotism how many british actors do you think there are?) interacted with the other characters.
But they weren’t all perfect, at least to me. Maybe I’m a negative nelly, because everyone seems to be tripping over themselves to scream positivity about the show in their reviews, but I, personally, feel like much of it has fallen flat. When they did finally drop - as they’ve been avoiding for much of this season - the ‘If I was a bloke this wouldn’t have been a problem’ thing, it wasn’t even delivered with a great deal of gravity or purpose. Maybe some people think that was a good thing, I don’t know, but looking at the way sexism was handled in Timeless, for example, and hell, Sliders (which was a trashy 90s show about jumping between alternate realities; or Quantum Leap for that matter, which had Sam jump into the lives of women in the past and experience days in their lifetimes), it’s way past the era of TV to deliver that kind of line like it’s inconsequentially drawing attention to something nobody noticed before, you know? Why is the BBC always 100 years behind, despite playing like it’s the most progressive thing ever? Why do we let it, and say “Sure we’ll take it, that’s enough” instead of also insisting they tell GOOD stories, and not wave their hand and say aliens did it at the end of every episode? I get it’s a time traveling series but the aliens show up and then the doctor waves her magic wand and ~science~ and yes she quoted Arthur C Clarke but she can do that and be powerful and tell powerful stories that aren’t completely...halfhearted, and if you don’t have trumped up stupid bad guys you don’t have to have flimsy solutions for beating them at the end.
We SHOULD be seeing ourselves in the media we’re absorbing. I firmly believe that. I also think, though, that we’re entitled to be respected by that media as well, in that the stories we’re seeing that show US should be good stories. They shouldn’t be concentrating on making as many nods as possible to as many corners of culture as possible that it stops caring about the story it’s telling, because whatever politically correct points it scores will ensure people overlook its flaws. It’s disrespectul, and we shouldn’t allow it, because it means we’re nothing but a commodity, an unquestioning storyblind audience that just doesn’t care so long as our representation needs are getting catered to. That means we’ll keep getting more representation, but a lot of it will be shit, because no matter what we’ll throw up our hands and give it ten out of ten and rigorously defend it no matter what caricatures it throws in front of us.
We should demand better stories alongside our representation. Fandom is so powerful now that we’re being written for, because as a whole we aren’t objective. We engage in mass squeeing, we’re GREAT at giving positive feedback and high ratings like it’s our job to do it even if it’s undeserved (and arguably Who NEEDED that positive feedback this year) and best of all anyone who doesn’t agree can be written off as an angry white dude, or racist, or just ignorant. That’s good for ratings and good for clicks, and networks eat that stuff up because it makes them money. But that isn’t respect, and we shouldn’t be selling ourselves out for a bargain basement price.
That’s my last word on it for now. I’ll probably complain again next week, and I know I KNOW this isn’t a popular pov for people, but I’ve made my bed with that. For those of you who loved it, I’m glad for you. I’m mostly disappointed for myself. And I still think camp James I was fucking terrible but I already know people love him, so what do I know?
P.S. my tags are for my flist so they can blacklist properly, not to force my saltiness down the throats of other Who fans. You don’t have to agree with me. I just needed to vent.
#wank for ts#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#dw spoilers#not spn#i'm a giant salty butt combo#cause see the thing is i love the idea of a female who#and i am conflicted cause obviously fake it till you make it#but i also find it so fucking insincere from the bbc and from the writers#and you know that poisons those big FEELS moments for me#when the Doctor goes into quotable mode and starts rambling off stuff about humanity#it all seems just so faked to me#but other people love it i guess#i look at the way eccleston's doctor ruminated on humanity for guidance you know#it's just a completely different animal and it makes me sad to see it cheered#when i feel like it's just so so empty#i am sad about it#so cheap

SVU 19x23-24 Remember Me (Too)
Is it over? Yes? Finally? And man, is it depressing that I don’t know if I’m talking about the finale or the season. Let’s focus on the ep, or at least try. Because tbh, halfway through I gave up and started playing around on my phone. This post in particular was more exciting than whatever was going on with the ep at the time. Anyway:
- The pacing was way off. This did not need to be 2hrs. They did not need an entire ep dealing with the hostage situation. So annoying when I think about The Undiscovered Country which could have really used an extra hour.
- Is it just me or is anyone else a bit disturbed that the one ep that has lots of Hispanic guest stars is all about human trafficking, (illegal) immigration, etc? Felt similar to recent ep Guardian: the one ep that had a black victim and it was all about surviving in the hood.
- This may sound horrible, but OMG that victim (Lourdes) was annoying. It all felt so over the top and melodramatic.
- Liv was possibly worse though. How can she berate people for following their gut and only caring about victims and not the law in one ep and then try to sell that same philosophy to Stone the next? I did like that he and the squad were there to be the voice of reason. I’d like it even better if she was actually wrong about something for once and had to learn from it.
- The squad was the highlight of the ep. Actually investigating, trying to find evidence. Being friends, showing a sense of humor. I really wish this was (still) more an ensemble show.
- Stone. Ugh, where to begin? I don’t dislike him, but I still don’t like him either, if that makes sense. I think I could grow to like him, but they’re pushing waaaay too hard still. And he’s getting threats and it’s already resolved, when Barba’s were waved away? It’s infuriating. The scene where he cried on Liv’s shoulder I felt for him, because I’m human, so that’s a thing that happens. But I’m not attached to him or his sister or their relationship. She had all of 2 lines and was obviously created so she could be killed off. It’s hard to be upset about.
- I guess I’m upset because this was a ridiculously obvious example of Fridging. I didn’t think there were writers left who wouldn’t know about that.
- Not to mention that pretty much everyone predicted this would happen.
- And why was he in that warehouse? Was there an actual reason or did the writers just want him to see his sister die?
- All of this becomes even worse if you’ve read the interview with Chernuchin. He talks about the finale and what’s up for s20. And ‘no worries’, even though his sister was the only reason he was in NY, Stone’s definitely sticking around. And they’ll explore the trauma. And the squad will now love him, because of it? That’s the weirdest part for me: that they think trauma makes people like you? I might feel for someone, but that doesn’t mean I find them interesting/nice/clever/etc. If they want the squad to like him, they could try having him help out during cases, interacting with all of them, doing a good job. Not just debating in bars with Benson. Plus, they’ve all been pretty friendly, especially considering how he joined.
- Ending on a positive note: Sonny during the late shift is my fave. Loved his reaction to the guy they brought in and loved his chat with his sister. The line about billionaires looking like Clooney was great. Btw, I know it was probably meant as advice to her, but if you squint, he could have been replying to something she said about how he should snag himself a handsome rich guy. It did follow a comment on his social life after all.
I might write something this weekend about the entire season and the coming one and whatnot. Depends on if I still feel like ranting by then.

90210 Season 4
ep 24 Cuffs and Links
So far they’ve only shown Brenda getting arrested...don’t tell me the other guys got away
oh good they caught the other people too
Also arrested right before St. Patricks day talk about bad luck :P
Shit $50,000 bail
uhhh Brenda does not always call Dylan first when she needs help and she’s only called for help one other time Kelly
And she called her brother and then tried to call you but you weren’t around so Dylan helped out
Also considering how wishy washy the rest of the gang is when it comes to loyalty I don’t blame Brenda for calling Dylan
out of the whole gang Dylan seems like he’ll always have your back when you need it and knows when to keep something a secret from your parents(and when not to)
And Dylan does have the money to bail her out and she definitely can’t rely on her twin he’d just lecture her and act as though he were her dad :P if he even showed up (cause he’d probably tell Jim and Cindy first)
Next question is how angry will her parents be....
This is Steve’s dad? he seems so much older compared to his mother
It is not 6:15am the sun is way to bright for it to be that early in Mid March
i know John shut up...be an adult...you guys were the idiots that broke into a federally funded research lab
one of Brenda’s biggest flaws is to Act now...think later especially when she’s passionate about something
Brenda goes all in with everything she does there’s no halfway for her
I love when Brenda calls her parents out their double standards they have between her and her brother
Look they are right to be upset for her being arrested(she did go about this activism a little too extremely)
however she makes a great point that if Brandon had been arrested for the school walk out they would’ve applauded him for taking a stand in what he believes in
BTW her parents are being scary calm...that for me is the worst because you can just tell they are disappointed...which is way worse than being angry
OMG I really want to punch Jim like we get it Brandon is your favorite child and he can never do any wrong in your eyes
Maybe if you gave Brenda just a fraction of support and respect you give your son she wouldn’t go to these extremes of trying to get her voice heard
Maybe if you’d ever sit down talk and actually listen to your daughter you wouldn’t be in this situation
Also let’s face it Brandon is just sneakier(i feel like his parents turn a blind eye) when it comes to things he knows he shouldn’t be doing
Lucinda’s 26? why did i think she was at least 30 something
ummm does Jesse actually know what the hell he’s talking about?
accessories after the fact...Brenda’s been arrested already
once again how many times has Brenda called Dylan in a crisis because by my last count it was once and only because her first two options didn’t answer
Also maybe if you hadn’t had hooked up with Dylan back when he was still with Brenda you wouldn’t be feeling so insecure about them relying on each other
They were together for 2 years and surprisingly have still remained friends afterwords and obviously he’s a better friend than you Kelly because he’ll be there for her no matter what
Obviously Brenda doesn’t expect her friends to jump in the jail cell with her but I imagine she at least hopes that she’d have their support or understanding
Kelly and Brenda haven’t been real friends in a long time...this moment just feels like the final nail in the coffin even if they make up at some point I see them just being friendly to each other because of their past & because they share friends
OMG Steve’s dad what an a**hole telling your kid he was a loser as a kid and is still one now all because he has morals and refuses to cheat at a game of golf?!
Good for Steve though standing up to his dad
54... are we sure Steve’s dad isn’t 64?(looked it up the actor was 59 at time of filming)
Wait what? John was the undercover guy? of course he was throwing everyone else off by acting paranoid about Brenda (i apologize my detective skills are lacking haven’t watched a crime show in a while lol)
Brenda gets herself into some crazy situations but damn she’s lucky
it’s one thing to bring a puppy into a restaurant it’s another to let him sit on the table! also why milk?! unless its puppy milk he shouldn’t be drinking that
bull shit Kelly fucking bull shit some friends you guys are the minute Brenda found herself in trouble you all are to afraid to even talk to her
Even Kelly knows Dylan and Brenda will always remember each other as the great love of their life so why do the writers keep forcing Dylan and Kelly!
but of course all is forgiven
