We know that the new cast members in S4 were basically auditioning for their jobs as much as their characters were, and i can't help but notice how exceptionally cunty Taub is in these early episodes
he werked his little ass off for that job!
#before they forced PJ to repress his natural swag#actually you know what... I have a better theory for this. These eps happened before anybody knew about his affairs#as this general shittiness of his marriage and life become more known (thanks House!) his body language becomes more uptight#he even antagonistically flirts with Amber! it's all fun and games.. until everyone knows just how bad he fucked up#hm I must ponder this now#chris taub#house md#peter jacobson

patented 'not that I care that much or anything so there's no need to dwell on it too too much ahaha *sweats nervously* but tain would you pls consider not murdering my mom (and the mother of your child) for absolutely no reason whatsoever? no pressure tho of course you know best! :)' smile
(it's so dark but also so funny that when tain keeps on Hinting Ominously, garak's reaction seems... slightly exasperated? more than anything, under all the tension fsdjafsl. this exact conversation has definitely happened multiple times over the last thirty years, lending horror an edge of 'oh this again huh' ennui and hilarity. 'I should have killed your mother before you were born'/'so you've told me, many times'. I think it's the turnaround time from 'I've missed you, Elim' to this that drives it from straightforward psychological horror sneaking dread to still that but also kind of hilarious. it really took tain less than five minutes to go there didn't it. wow. well, actually. I think maybe the real horror part is that garak still loves him and doesn't know how to stop. somewhere in there is a five year old whose heart is a desperate stupid little moth and his father is a ruinous forest fire in the night, brighter and closer than any star. of course it burns you to touch it that's just what love is, right. *spots a smiling julian bashir in the loading bay holding a box of chocolates out of the corner of his mind and experiences something harrowing and existential he simply cannot unpack right in this moment thank you* right???)
#the tain household is a very very dark comedy if you squint at it just right. also a tragedy and a horror of course#star trek#star trek ds9#ds9#elim garak#garashir#yeah it got in there I just can't help myself. in my defense that's all right there in the ep lol#his expressions and body language in this whole scene. a gold mine#he's so still and controlled most of the time (in the 'don't eat me' way) and there are moments where he suddenly looks much much younger#you just know he looked at tain exactly like this when he was five when he was fifteen when he was twenty five#and also the half light half dark lighting across his face doing its thing -- man what a good two parter this is

Louis de Pointe Du Lac 'In Throes of Increasing Wonder'
#ah i was supposed to post earlier but next week I'lll have a better schedule with the queue#ldpdl.txt#vampterview#amc iwtv#iwtv#interview with the vampire#amc interview with the vampire#louis de pointe du lac#I always found a certain amount of grace in louis that yk is beautifully displayed in the first episode#tho ofc it continues through the rest of the series#the crossing of legs bein here and then yk in the lil clip we got of s2 you see him doin the same crossing legs but armand is also joining#body language and such if that makes sense oh lil things of how we do not see his face or facial journey when the tape is heard his whole#body is turned away from daniel and the audience and yeah he was bein disrespectful#and its like as we get more pieces of the puzzle the more certain things make sense the more dynamics are just getting crazier#i felt a newer light after rewatching the trailers and lil clip and ik itll just be such an eye opener when we get to see all of s2 (puzzle#anyways im getting off topic my brain goes from x to a louis is just so gorgeous and the way he sits is as a dancer even continuing to in#later eps entrancing like you want to be near him and when he starts the story his laugh its like you know you need to be near him#In Throes of Increasing Wonder

there's an essay jumbled up in my brain about dunmeshi's beginning and how clever and deceptive it is as a sleight-of-hand trick that distracts the audience from the depth and scope of the worldbuilding and foreshadowing that's being set up the entire time by dangling zany characters and wacky dishes and biology fun facts in front of us, and how that serves to catch invested viewers off guard when those elements come to the forefront, but also how it works against it with other viewers wanting "more" and not seeing it because the plot bait isn't laid out up front
how people getting frustrated with the characters "not taking things seriously" is mirrored and refuted in the confrontation between Laios and Shuro. how the characters' attitudes aren't just a result of shallow low-stakes "comedy rules" where nothing matters, but are an extension of their personalities (Laios's nonstandard expression of emotions being offputting even to people he knows) and the world and social environment (adventurers being desensitized to death and injury because resurrection magic is commonplace). the way the party refers to "saving Falin" instead of "retrieving Falin's corpse," indicating that they still see her with full personhood, and how that phrasing leads to some readers/viewers believing that Falin is alive in the dragon's stomach, conscious of being slowly digested while the party carelessly fucks around "wasting time." how the weird tonal dissonance makes sense in-universe and yet is deliberately challenged more and more the deeper the party goes
all the character building and pieces of lore slowly weaving together the shape of the larger world, laying the groundwork for the major themes that will surface later. so much is right there in the "low-stakes" early episodes if you know what you're looking for (or pass the perception checks).
it can be so satisfying to see new viewers/readers pick up on the clues even in the earliest "simple" episodes, or notice new things and make connections yourself....and it can also be frustrating to see people dismiss oddities and dissonance as shallow or bad writing because they don't expect a "cooking anime" to have depth like that. why try to question and understand and peel back the layers when you don't expect there to be any layers?
why can't laios take things seriously for once?
#mypost#i'm majorly out of practice for doing any real critical cohesive writing lol#trying to put this into coherent words has been such a mess so here's a vague gesture at my thought process about it#it's both my favorite and the most frustrating thing to see#because i've seen SO MANY people say they dropped the show after a couple eps thinking they know what it's about and where it's going#a cute but ultimately unsustainable gimmick#people for whom the characters and the food/biology infodumping weren't enough of a hook#but i wouldn't change anything about the structure to put a more obvious plot hook in the beginning#because it would give the game away TOO much#i LOVE how the audience has to acclimate to the characters' attitudes about death#only for our assumption that it's all normal and fine in this world to be thrown back in our faces#how we're left to notice the winged lion appearing in statues and carvings and coins and armor in the background#long long before it's ever brought up as a real entity by the plot#the history of the kingdom laid out in plain view but nevermind that. magic painting food!#i've seen the language around falin and her resurrection cause so much confusion#but of COURSE the characters involved wouldn't directly say 'we need to get her corpse to revive it'#bc pragmatically they already understand that as their goal. it doesn't need to be stated out loud; it's just how this process works.#but also they don't SEE her as an object. a dead body.#they need to 'save her before she's digested.' 'the spell couldn't reach her in the dragon's stomach.' 'hang in there falin'#death isn't real to them. not really. and so it doesn't quite feel real to the audience either#not until they find her skull and that realization slams home#like......i keep comparing it to gravity falls#which is episodic and goofy in the beginning but also has a much more obvious plot hook to keep people interested#(a main character entering a secret bunker indicating that he's lying about his ignorance of the town's mysteries)#the main characters in gravity falls are AWARE that there is a mystery to be solved and are trying to find more information#but i don't think that approach would work as well for dm!#laios's goals were never that lofty. not until they HAD to be because the situation demanded it of him#it's the characters trying to solve one personal problem and finding themselves entrenched in something vast and dramatic#that they weren't even fully AWARE of when they set out. and we the audience are on that journey with them!#it's SUCH a good structure i wouldn't trade it for anything. but also. tragic to see people give up and dismiss it so fast.

Station 19 - 6x08
#station19edit#station 19#maya bishop#danielle savre#station 19 6x08#femslash related stuff#carina x maya#marina#love the lock screen <3#and I keep forgetting to mention it but danielle savre did GREAT work in this ep#the crying sure but the body language for maya too#once she closes the door she actually has to settle in how alone she is#and this time she can't call up pretend anger or need to clean#and against the very advice she'd just agreed to she thinks about how to assuage that loneliness#and I know there are people who wished she'd called#but I'm glad she didn't because for right now it would be something better for her and not necessarily carina#like yes carina knowing she's okay and that she's doing better or at least on the path to it would be great#but that's happened before#carina might jump to forgive and help and things just go back to how they were#or perhaps they start off fine but then carina says something that might be taken by maya as pushy or the wrong thing#and then a super exhausted emotional maya might lash out again#unrelated to all this but loved that sweatshirt and her shoulders in it >_>

so, here’s the thing: sometimes when I’m watching a show my brain sort of wanders off and creates little stories of it’s own and when I watched heartbreak high season 1, I like did a whole enemy’s to lovers 300k+ in my brain about amerie and harper. so. I like ship them a bit in a totally not realistic, outside of canon, confined to the limits of my own mind type of way. but. but. if harper continues to look and generally exist around amerie like THAT- imma just have to start shipping them for real.
#like#that girl’s body language could not be anymore infatuated with that girl#I know it’s friendship and friendship is great and just as important as romantic relationships#this is definitely not about that but about the fanfiction I created in my head about these two and how nice it is to see them happy at las#watching ep 4 season 2 and they’re at the bus and it’s killing me they’re actually dating#heartbreak high#harper x amerie

i like to think husk and alastor tend to run super hot and cold. like one day they're hanging out drinking and laughing together until they're on the floor with tears streaming down their faces, and the next, husk is wishing alastor would just die already lol
#to me its their body language and the way they interact sometimes#like in the first ep when husk is sitting almost directly next to alastor when they both had hella other space to sit#i was like 'huh!'#hazbin hotel#hazbin funnies#alastor hazbin#husk hazbin#headcanon

I don’t know what’s happening in the latest episode of MAWS but the way Clark emoted in this whole scene is just heart rendering.
Lois deserves special mentions too:
#rubi’s post#my adventures with superman#superman#clark kent#lois lane#the body language used in the scenes are damn powerful#also I hoped they make up in the next ep or so
