9-1-1, Grey’s Anatomy, and Station 19 was my TGIT 2.0

[kj7895]

The more I am rewatching some of my shows, I just realized majority of them were on ABC. 911, Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19, Big Sky, Revenge, Lost, Agents of Shield, Quantico, The Rookie, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder, The Good Doctor, Abbott Elementary and more. ABC has been in the bag for many years and I hope they continue.

There is an old promo for ABC where they included many characters from their top shows like Grey's, Agents of Shield, Once upon a time, How to get away with murder, Castle etc... and it was titled to something like "How to get a win with ABC"

I need one with their current shows, including The Rookie and 911

ok but why are Annalise Keating (How to get away with murder) and Regina Mills (Once upon a time) literally the same person??? they have the exact same vibe, they both have great quips, and were both main characters of an Abc show in the 2010s. They even make the same expressions, look:

like come onnnn. they’re the same, change my mind

When How to Get Away WIth Murder is good, it's good.

For those saying we won’t get much sexytimes with Buck and Tommy. Let me remind you, this is ABC. ABC is the first of the Big 3 networks to show bare butt. This is the same network where Annalise Keating got it on with men and women. This is the same network where Connor and Oliver had a threesome with a guy they met online. Not to mention all the sex those doctors and nurses had on Grey’s Anatomy.

How to Get Away with Murder intro

[appreciatingactors]

I know, I know.. It’s been awhile. But, hear me out- life.

Whilst I cannot promise a schedule with my posts, know that I will never abandon my duties as blog mistress.

That being said, lets go ahead and take a dive into today’s guest of honor: Viola Davis.

It took me awhile to figure out who I wanted to post on this blog next. Every name I passed just didn’t scream out at me enough because it just wasn’t their time. But Viola Davis has been a constant source of entertainment for me, so when I thought of her while scrolling, I just knew I had to do an update on her.

The first thing I ever saw Viola in was Disturbia. I will admit to having forgotten about that movie, and her appearance in it. I do remember watching it when I was around 8 or 9 years old though. I have always preferred more intense movies as opposed to the kids movies I was supposed to have been watching at that age. Now it seems like I need to rewatch it to refresh my memory.

Her most memorable role for me, however, was her starring role on How To Get Away With Murder. I was absolutely fascinated with this show, as I also wanted to become a lawyer or detective, since I really love puzzles. The show never really had a dull moment, and it excited me. She was brilliant in this.

My favorite, however, will be a movie that will always remain a favorite of mine ever since I saw it. I recommend it to others all the time, and I just can’t get enough of it.. The Help. The Help is a movie that will always move me to tears, no matter how many times I may have seen it. Whenever I need a good cry, this movie is definitely a contender on what I will be watching. 

Without Viola, I feel the roles she played in these things would have been an injustice if played by anyone else. So, thank you, Viola, for making my heart melt when it needs to be melted.

there’s a great write up by someone on here that i will have to search for in which they discuss how the ultimate evil for david lynch is sexual violence against women (even more severe than murder, which is often auxiliary to that type of specific violence); twin peaks is incredibly soapy—on purpose! lynch and frost are playing with form and content on purpose to examine incredibly difficult subject matter through a (for lack of a better word) more palatable format—which most of the time i think works to its advantage and makes those moments of visible horror so much more effective (i use “visible” rather than “true” or other similar adjectives because the horror is always there, it’s embedded in the entire town, shows up in every generation we see in screen and we watch them grapple with it in different ways, but that’s a separate post)

however—and i’ve talked about this before—i find that once you’ve watched fire walk with me it is so much harder to watch the show because the ignorance of nearly every single member of the town (yes, including cooper) pervades the way the action unfolds. twin peaks viewers knew the premise of the show going in and we get to discover details and information alongside the characters. when albert rosenfield comes in as the only voice of reason and reality, it’s set up to be jarring to both the townspeople and to the viewer. why?

sheryl lee said in an interview, “fire walk with me was very difficult for me to watch… and, emotionally it’s a reminder: this is a movie, but this continues to happen every day and how can we stop it? when i watch fire walk with me now, as a mother, i watch it and i think look at all those signs that were being exhibited. this girl was in danger, and look at all these people that were in her life. what would have happened if someone, somewhere, somehow could have helped or stopped it? that’s hard to watch.”

much has been discussed critically about fire walk with me and whether or not it’s exploitative in the ways that it portrays sexual violence against women. while lynch does not shy away from making that violence visible, it is done so in an attempt to make the viewer examine their own relationship to that violence and how it shows up in their own lives. the audience is forced to think about the ways that they are complicit in how and why these violent acts occur and what they can do to stop it, which is why for many it is an uncomfortable watch. for others, it is a painful (and speaking from my own perspective) necessary watch because lynch didn’t make a horror movie, he made a documentary.

fire walk with me is necessary (in my humblest of opinions) to understand why the pieces that lynch and frost put into twin peaks work. there’s so much backstory to how they weren’t originally going to reveal who laura palmer’s killer was until ABC made them, lynch wasn’t around during much of the second season so things got a little off the rails storytelling-wise, etc. etc. but fire walk with me allows them to tie difficult, often horrifying threads (ben horne unknowingly attempting to have sex with his daughter, the townspeople’s distancing of albert, the hands of random townspeople trembling as BOB attempts to claw back into the material world, the list goes on and on) back to the central thesis of “sexual violence is the ultimate evil, it is completely avoidable, and you have a responsibility to recognize the signs and stop being complicit”
