#abc sound for children

[lvcashael]

if you're going to criticize Marisol's actress, please do it for actual legitimate reasons

she's made homophobic and transphobic comments!! fuck that shit, let's stick to criticizing that

but being a bit cringe is not a crime and playing a character that is so far a bit bland is not a crime and a lot of y'all are sounding far more misogynistic (and plain annoying as hell if I'm honest) than you probably realize

I just saw that she was back on set, and instead of being annoyed about this storyline dragging on, or about them keeping her on after her comments, my first thought was about how fucking insufferable some of y'all are about to be

[the-martyrfication-of-the-matron]

Is it snarky to say the 9-1-1 fandom has ruined the show for me a bit?

Why sre y’all so obsessed with which men are kissing eachother and not literally ANYTHING ELSE.

I don’t even give a fuck, I really, really don’t. I spoke about it a bit back when s7 was coming out because I thought ‘the conversations will die down in a bit, might as well get my piece in when it’s relevant’ but NO.

It’s all you care about, isn’t it? There’s so much more to talk about, like Athena and Copaganda, or how Henren are super sweet, or how Maddie Han is literally the most wonderful woman in the world.

But this is really a ‘No Nuance November is all year’ kinda fandom…

Wow

What's your opinion about how long the show will go on for?

Lots of people think ABC will try to turn it into another Grey's and milk it until it's dry. Others think as soon as anyone from the main cast leaves, the show is done.

I personally believe that with the successful move to ABC, the show is safe until at least Season 10 as it is (barring some unexpected event). I do believe if anyone is leaving first is either Peter or Angela or both due to age and salaries becoming too high. But unlike many people, I think if Peter and Angela left, the show could curvive another couple of years, provided the rest of the main cast remained.

I just don't see it going on for as long as Grey's or Chicago Fire or whatever, based alone on how the TV industry as changed because of streaming. I give it 12 or 13 seasons tops.

I believe it was after last season, Peter said he had a few more years in him. And Angela's twins just went off to college so based on those two things I can see it hitting 12 seasons and comfortably coming to a close. I'm fine with 10, but idk 12 just sounds nice 😆

Like, personally, I want 12 seasons because I'm selfish. I want to see Buck get married and explore having children. I also want him to move up in his career. I want to see Christopher graduate, and we should hit that milestone by season 12. I would love to see Eddie go on a full self discovery for an entire season and into another, where the next step for him ultimately leads him to either meeting a new potential LI or perhaps finding something he's passionate about that he never tried before.

I want to see Maddie step up into Josh's position while he steps into Sue's as she ultimately retires. I'd love for Chim and Maddie to maybe discuss having another child too.

Hen and Karen's path would be similar to Eddie's in having Denny graduate, and idk I'd love it if he wanted to work in a field that works with foster children. Mara had a ton of potential but we don't know her very much so no idea there.

Bobby and Athena need to just manage to go on a vacation and not almost die 🤣

Sorry. This turned into something way different than what you asked for!!

Three Firefighter Shows & Their Queers

Station 19 vs. 9-1-1 vs. Lone Star

A. THE FIREFIGHTER SHOWS

Station 19 is a TV show about firefighters, created by Stacy McKee with Shonda Rhimes as Executive Producer, launched by ABC in Jan 3, 2018. It's a spin-off of Grey's Anatomy.

9-1-1 is a TV show about firefighters, co-created by Tim Minear with Ryan Murphy as Executive Producer, launched by Fox in Mar 22, 2018.

Lone Star (or 9-1-1: Lone Star) is a TV show about firefighters, co-created by Tim Minear with Ryan Murphy as Executive Producer, launched by Fox in Jan 19, 2020. It's a spin-off of 9-1-1.

They sound repetitive? Wait until you get to the next parts.

B. THE TOKEN QUEER COUPLES

Station 19 has only one queer (bisexual) main couple: Maya Bishop (main character) x Carina DeLuca (main character) or MARINA. Maya Bishop is a member of Station 19, while Dr. Carina DeLuca is a medical doctor in... Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital (duh 🙄).

Cheating issue: Maya cheated on Carina with her ex, Jack Gibson.

Parenthood issue: Initially Maya didn't want to be a parent, but Carina wanted to. Maya changed her mind later.

Adoption issue: Marina's effort to adopt baby Liam was far from smooth. First, they needed to foster Liam. They also faced a risk of losing the baby.

9-1-1 has only one queer (lesbian) main couple: Henrietta Wilson (main character) x Karen Wilson (recurring character) or HENREN. Henrietta Wilson is member of 118 Firehouse, while Dr. Karen Wilson is an aerospace engineer.

Cheating issue: Hen cheated on Karen with her ex, Eva Mathis.

Adoption issue: Henren's efforts to adopt Denny, and later Mara, were far from smooth. They also faced a risk of losing their children with each adoption or child fostering 🙄.

Lone Star has only one queer (gay) main couple: TK Strand (main character) x Carlos Reyes (main character) or TARLOS. TK Strand is member of 126 Firehouse, while Carlos Reyes is a police officer, later a Texas Ranger.

Parenthood issue: Initially Carlos didn't want to be a parent, but TK wants to. Carlos might change his mind later.

(Potential) adoption issue: TK wanted to adopt Jonah, his little step-brother. By the time this piece is posted, Lone Star final season is still ongoing. We don't know yet what will happen to the adoption plan.

C. THE OTHER QUEERS: THE "ETERNAL BACHELORS"

Station 19 has only one other queer main character: Travis Montgomery (gay).

Relationship journey: He became a widow after his husband, Michael Williams, died. Since then he had a string of failed relationships.

Final relationship status: By the end of the show, Travis got a brand new boyfriend (Dominic Amaya), whom he could build a relationship with.

It is an odd choice to make Travis went through a string of failed relationships until the end of the show (May 30, 2024), when other main characters got their one 'true love'. Sure, other main couples have their ups and downs during their relationships, but each of them got a 'soulmate', someone who audience assumed would be their end-game partner. Since Station 19 already had Marina set and settled, it is as if the show was afraid to upset the general audience if there were more than one queer couple had a lasting relationship with a happy ending.

9-1-1 has only one other queer main character: Evan Buckley ("Buck") (bisexual).

Relationship journey: He had a string of failed relationships with 4 women and 1 man during Season 1 to Season 8A (current season). Currently he is single.

Final relationship status: Yet unknown, since the show is still ongoing.

Other prominent queer (gay) character on 9-1-1 is Josh Russo (recurring character). He had one failed relationship portrayed on the show during Season 2 (Josh' 1st appearance) to Season 8A (current season).

Lone Star has only one other queer main character: Paul Strickland (transexual).

Relationship journey: Paul had one date with Josie on ep. 5x01 "Studs", but they didn't pursue a romantic relationship after that. Currently, he's in a relationship with Asha Fulton, whose appearance is almost as rare as UFO sighting 🙄. So far, Asha's only appeared in 5 episodes in total, all were in Season 4.

Final relationship status: Yet unknown. Currently the show is on its final season and has aired 9 of 12 episodes of the season. Paul's girlfriend has not yet made an appearance, but there is also no sign that their relationship is in trouble. If fans were lucky, Asha would make an appearance at the final episode of the show 🙄.

D. THE DIVERSITY QUOTA

All the three firefighter shows are marketed towards the general auidence. Each has only one queer couple who enjoys a lasting relationship, and (most likely will) get a happy ending at the end of the show. The other queer characters are not so lucky in love. Either they go through a string of failed relationships, or have an elusive romantic partner when the shows end.

What ABC did to Travis Montgomery of Station 19 is particularly telling. Why Travis didn't get a lasting romantic relationship with a happy ending? Station 19 has resolved any other problems with their characters, except for this one. The show tried to compensate it by giving Travis a major career boost and a brand new love interest. However, it means he had to build the relationship from scratch... again. And it still didn't answer the question: why didn't Travis get a lasting romantic relationship, when other main characters on the show did?

Paul Strickland's elusive girlfriend in Lone Star must sound familiar to Tevan fans, because that's how 9-1-1 treated Tommy Kinard during his term as Buck's boyfriend. Fans celebrated a less than one minute scene and zoomed his figure in the backgrounds, because Tommy's appearance was so few and far between.

Since Buck is bisexual, there's a chance that he'd get a lasting relationship with a woman. Another option is making Buck the Travis Montgomery of 9-1-1. He'd have a string of failed relationships throughout the show. When 9-1-1 ended, he could be in a brand new relationship with a man, because the show wouldn't need to portray the relationship any longer. Giving Buck an elusive boyfriend ala Paul Strickland seems unlikely, considering his personality. And by reflecting on what happened on other shows, the chance of Buck has a lasting relationship with a man is slimmer than celebrities on Ozempic.

It is as if there is a diversity quota for TV shows marketed towards general audience. If anyone disagree, let me ask this:

Why is there no show marketed towards general audience, which has more than one queer couple with a lasting romantic relationship & a happy ending at the end of the show?

'Coincidence' is not a logically acceptable answer, simply because the sheer number of shows marketed towards the general audience. The possibility of coincidence is also practically out of the window when we question 'why Travis of Station 19 didn't get a 'soul mate' while other main characters on the same show did?'

'There is no such diversity quota. I live in LA and have been working in the industry for decades, so you should trust me' is also not a logically acceptable answer. My question starts with 'why'. Logically, the answer should start with 'because'. That kind of answer reminds me of the dispute between Galileo Galilei vs. the Catholic Church. When Galileo promoted the heliocentrism doctrine based on the phases of Venus, the Catholic Church basically answered 'the doctrine is wrong. We've been studying God and his creations for centuries, so you should trust us.' We know how the story ended.

doing two in one bc it's technically wednesday already idc lol - started a new wip I mentioned before (inspired by this video lol) and rn I'm rewriting what I wrote yesterday bc the past two days words were not wording and I hated everything I wrote, but I think I'm happy with it now haha I hope I'll manage to write it like I want to bc it's sooo good in my head istg haha

(wasn't gonna post until i have more but i need validation before i drive myself crazy over this lol)

___

It started as a random idea, more like a throwaway thought, really. Tommy was just checking the weather for the next few days – his hot pilot boyfriend always likes to be prepared – while they were hanging out, and he casually mentioned that “it’s gonna be nice on Saturday, perfect barbecue weather,” which got Buck to mention how they often have family barbecues at Bobby and Athena’s. Somehow, the conversation spiraled, and Buck’s not sure who threw out a more concrete idea, but here they are now, standing side by side in Tommy’s kitchen, preparing food – Buck’s currently slicing veggies for a salad, while Tommy takes care of the meat – for the barbecue where they invited way too many people than Tommy’s backyard can probably fit. It really is nice weather, the sliding door leading from the kitchen to the backyard open and letting in warm sunshine and a soft breeze that makes the air feel cooler. They work in pleasant silence, the only sound is quiet music playing from the speaker, and Buck can’t help a fond smile when he hears his boyfriend hum along, so off-key Buck’s not sure he even knows the song, but it’s still adorable.

The silence is disrupted by the doorbell ringing, and before Tommy can even move, Buck is dropping the knife on the cutting board, wiping his hands, and sprinting towards the door, shouting an “I got it!” over his shoulder. He’s followed by an echo of Tommy’s fondly amused chuckles. So he’s a little excited, sue him – they haven’t had a family day like this in a while, and there was only one he brought Tommy to, all of their schedules not so easy to align. And today his whole family will be here, including their spouses and children, and Tommy invited a couple of his friends and their families, too, and it’ll be just a big, loud, chaotic get-together that he’s hosting with his boyfriend. Buck never hosted one of these before, and he’s really enjoying it so far, and he just wants everyone to have fun.

💿Reboot AU, Post One, Patient is the Night:

• The breeze is colder than you expected it to be today. It nips at your skin, at your nose, at your cheeks, at your eyes. It stings, as though someone tossed ice on you. But you keep going, taking the old cracked sidewalk to get to your destination.

• It's an old building, with many windows showing off antique tea sets and plates, Christmas trees and baubles, old lamps and costume jewelry, and different paintings and old furniture and knick knacks. The place has been there for as long as you can remember, with its dark green, chipped doors, it's slanted entrance, and it's lack of heating and air conditioning. The old place, the Bay Antique and Flea Market, has three floors: the ground floor, the basement, and the top floor. And inside are booths upon booths, with almost anything imaginable. It also happens happens be where you work.

• Entering the old building causes the bell above the door to ring, and you're greeted by a tired co-worker, who waves you off, letting you go to your section of the antique store. You pass many items, mostly old and vintage, only a few new things sticking out here and there in bright, mismatched colors. There's the large glass display case featuring silver spoons, different large and jeweled rings, mannequin parts displaying necklaces and bracelets on their black velvet shapes, and thimbles and cups and rare toys in protective casing. As you pass that, you slip by the clothing section, full of expensive old fur shawls and coats, old prom dresses as far back as the 60s, feathered and ostentatious hats, pointed heels, and old bows and ribbons and brooches. You turn sharply to the left, wea ing between large oak drawers and stained glass lamps, past the old porcelain cups and mugs and glass goblete and retro kitchen items, further past the fake fruits and oil paintings and old rocking horse, and then you reach the old metal stairs.

• You descend, gripping the middle railing as you go down, reaching the next set of stairs, taking the right set, and then you're in the basement area. Where the ground floor smelled of coffee and leather and old metal, down here smells like mothballs, dust, and old book pages. In the farthest room is a whole book section, with children's books from different decades, science and history and algebra books for homeschooling, ABC and Spanish and hymnals, even old Bibles and trashy romance novels. Next to that section are old costumes and skirts and dresses, donated by older teachers and grandparents and old theaters. You loop through the section, moving quickly past the football team mascot merch and old soda bottles and creepy dolls, and into a section you quite enjoy, amd where you usually stay: the Marvel section.

• You pop your back, then get to work. You start unpacking old comics, each in protective plastic, and categorize them into their appropriate sections. After that you're putting up random T-shirts, with different phrases or characters or motifs on them, from Disney to Deadpool to even chibi Avengers. Once that's over with, you sit down, taking a small break.

• That's when you notice the box

• It's on the display case/desk, worn and dented, with no address or writing, besides being addressed to someone that sounds like some odd hero or villain name. You feel a little put off by it, but with careful hands, you peel back the flaps...

• Huh. There are a few DVD cases, depicting different teenage and adult characters, with some title that includes X-Men. You feel puzzled looking it over, checking the cases and DVDs for damage, but oddly find none, not even a scratch on any of the discs or chipped plastic on the cases. You take a closer look at the title...

• X-Men: Evolution... except when you peer closer, it says by it "the Rebooted Series". Hmmm... You go through your thoughts, trying to think of what you know about any X-Men or Marvek media, but come up short. Huh. So. This could be an old series, one that became lost media. Or could be a fake version. Or it might even just be a prank by some dumb teenager. Well... You're curious, and you could use a good thing, so with that decided, you set up the old TV in your section.

• It takes a few tries, but you figure out the remote, soon turning on the old screen and setting it to AV. You open the case labeled as the first season, and take out the first disc... You shiver, feeling a purckling sensation along your back... but you shake it off, inserting the disc, then press the play button... The screen flickers, a small pop of static, then it sends you to the main menu... You hum lightly, pressing the play all option, and soon it winks out... And then it opens to the first episode, and you breathe out a sigh.

• You watch the first few episodes, enjoying the designs of each character, puzzling over undertones that there are secrets being kept, watching the teams form and dynamics be made, and you grin, a tired, warm tilt of your lips and a settled look in your eyes. It's a comfort, somehow, seeing the adult X-Men and Brotherhood members acting like odd mentors and parents, seeing the teens become friends and teammates, seeing the difference abilities and powers that bring them together... You find yourself feeling calmer somehow, and you soend the next few hours finishing the first season...

• You added a bit of commentary as you watched, and you tilted your head when the characters seemed to pause from time to time, or mentioned they were missing someone, or asked seemingly no one if they were watching, if they heard them, if they could remember what had happened... you feel a deep sadness at that, wondering who they're trying to reach, and what could possibly be wrong...

• Your dream is fuzzy around the edges, dark, as though blurred, but by what you don't know... something is speaking to you, or whoever you're supposed to be... they aren't kind, but your head can't remember what they're saying, it can't focus on what's happening... you feel pain, filling your veins then filling your heart and then filling your mind, drowning you under deep agony... there's a bright light, there's a sharp jolt through your chest, and then everything go numbs, voices settling, darkness swallowing everything whole...

• You jump, waking up. There's no one there... Your head feels weird, thick and groggy, as you struggle back to wakefulness. You can hear the muted voices from the TV, and let out a small breath. You're okay... You're fine... It's just a nightmare, it's just a dream, it can't hurt you...

• You look back at the screen, noting how the characters seemed to stare back for a moment... before resuming their conversation, a few sounding concerned while you started waking up.

• "-not okay, how do we know it's safe-" "-if we don't try now, we won't get another chance-!" "-settle down, please-" "-shhhhh, you woke them up!" "-remind them-" "-miss them-" "-it vill be okay, guys, it has to be-"

• You groan slightly, pulling yourself up to your full height. Your shoulders roll back, firm and strong, amd your legs carry you over to a small mini fridge. You squat down, yawning a little, and pick out a cold coffee. You pop back up, heading back to your seat, and take a minute to down your drink. Your sweater is soft, in a warm shade of brown, and your jeans are a dark gray. Your boots, short bit sporting heels, click together lightly as you bounce your leg a little to help you wake up. You finger your left ear a little, noting your three earrings are still there: a trio of dangling moonstones; a thin silver hoop; and a dark black stud, twinkling like a star. You rub at your eyes, then you're back to being awake.

• You look back at the screen, noting the characters are all getting ready for bed now, and you yawn. They have the right idea... You watch as the episode is finished, and soon the first season is done. You stretch as you get up, then stride over to the TV, popping out the disc, then setting it back in its case. You wander over to the worn box they came in, and sift through the remaining cases...

• There's at least... five, if not six, seasons... And while you really would like to start the second season right away... you think maybe taking a nap would be a good idea...

• "Night, guys... See ya in the morning..."

• As you lay your head back down, pillowing it on your arms, you think you almost hear something... but you're soon winking out, too tired to stay awake a second longer...

• "Night, Reader... we miss you..."

• The screen flickers once, twice... and then it fades out, a quick flash of eyes watching the sleeping teen, before it disappears...

[braidlottie]

lottieshauna ABC’S! (sfw)

hiiiii :3 i miss my Mommies :/

A FOR AFFECTION! how affectionate are they? how do they show affection?

lottie shows affection by physical touch :( and shauna loves spending quality time with you while lottie’s away at the compound.

B FOR BEST FRIEND! what would they be like as a best friend?

since being younger than them, they would be such doting and protective friends. you probably met through nat and you totally embarrassed yourself the first time you met them.

C FOR CUDDLES! would they like to cuddle? how do they cuddle?

they love sandwiching you inbetween them and kissing you on your cheeks :3

D FOR DOMESTIC! do they want to settle down? how are they at cooking and cleaning?

you love lottie’s cooking so much and you love shauna’s baking even more. just don’t let them switch, though. the only thing shauna can cook are scrambled eggs and toast, and lottie almost burnt the house on her 4th attempt at gingerbread cookies.

E FOR ENDING :( if they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?

it would be such an emotional process!! so many tears :(( but lottie and shauna make sure that you know they love you very much and still would want to be friends outside the relationship.

F FOR FIGHTS! how would fights between them go?

it wasn’t you getting in fights, it was lottie and shauna. fights between them were extremely rare, but every couple fights. they would always be on separate sides of the house to avoid each other, and hated seeing them like that (and they hated seeing you so sad) and they made up with a couple of kisses.

G FOR GENTLE! how gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?

so gentle with you, always. rubbing your back at a random occurrence, or keeping a soft voice if you get a little overwhelmed.

H FOR HUGS! do they like hugs? how often do they do it? what are their hugs like?

SO MANY HUGS!! they both love giving u tight hugs and a kiss everyday (whenever lottie and shauna hug each other, they notice you get a little jealous scowl on your face, so they bring you in and dote on you.)

I FOR INJURY! how do they react if you get injured?

say you cut yourself while using a knife in the kitchen. you hiss a little and they immediately run to your aid, asking if you cut yourself. your hand is dripping with blood while you say, “its fine/it doesn’t hurt.” but they don’t listen to your protests. they take you to the bathroom and pull out the first aid kit, sanitizing and bandaging you up like a wounded soldier.

J FOR JEALOUSY! how jealous do they get? what do they do when they’re jealous?

they never get seriously jealous, only playfully. (ex. kissing and snuggling up to shauna in front of lottie and she starts pouting)

K FOR KISSES! what are their kisses like? where do they like to kiss you? where do they like to be kissed?

so many kisses get distributed between the three of you within the day, you couldn’t count them on all of your fingers. shauna likes to leave long, lingering kisses, smiling in adoration as she pulls away. lottie leaves many small little pecks to the cheek and lips (you whine in embarrassment as she does so, but she knows you love it.)

L FOR LITTLE ONES! how are they around children?

lottie loves them, smiling even when she sees one on a commercial. shauna thinks they’re adorable as well, until they start crying.

M FOR MORNINGS! how are mornings spent with them?

mornings with them can go from snuggling in bed for an hour without a peep from any of you, or morning walks/bike rides through the park.

N FOR NIGHTS! how are nights spent with them?

lottie’s cooking dinner with some music on in the background, clashing loudly with the sound of your video game on the tv in the living room. shauna’s sitting on the couch and you’re sitting on the floor between her legs, making sure she’s watching you the whole time. that’s a perfect night imo >_<

O FOR OPEN! when would they start revealing things about themselves? do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?

this is hard bc if it was no crash au, they would open up so quick. they feel so comfortable around you, and they want to share everything. but if it was what happened to them in canon, i feel like they would have a little sit down and walk you through the whole wilderness thing. and obviously, you would never judge them. you understood they did that to survive.

P FOR PATIENCE! how easily angered are they?

it takes a lot for lottie to get angry but shauna is a little more uptight, but never around you.

Q FOR QUIZZES! how much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?

they remember stuff like your favorite movie and color and whatnot, but also the weirdest, miscellaneous stories you told over the years, and they would bring it up around you to make you smile. lottie and shauna are good listeners, they wanna make sure you know they’re paying attention to you.

R FOR RAINY DAY! what are they like in the rain?

it’s movie marathons all day. lottie makes hot cocoa of the three of you and finds some cozy movies. you end you falling asleep in the middle of the first one, curling up next to shauna.

S FOR SECURITY! how protective are they? how would they protect you? how would they like to be protected?

they are very protective people, especially shauna. she gets so mad someone at the grocery store or a restaurant is clearly checking you out, and she pulls you away because you’re too clueless to even realize.

T FOR TRY! how much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?

lottie and shauna love spoiling you with gifts, even if it’s just a random day. they would always say it reminded you of them and they just have to buy it.

U FOR UGLY! what would be some bad habits of theirs?

none. they’re my perfect Little angels

V FOR VANITY! how concerned are they with their looks?

the both of them have issues with their looks some days, but always gets compliments and praise from you throughout the day.

W FOR WHOLE! would they feel incomplete without you?

YES. oh yes, they would. if you’re gone a few hours out of town for a couple days, they’ll miss you so much. like shauna would be doing folding laundry and see a shirt of yours and get a little emotional 😭😭

X FOR XTRA! a random headcanon for them

anytime they go out without you (ex. going to dinner with the other yjs), you’re always asleep when they get back. and they love it so much. your soft little breaths, and how cute you look with the blanket up to your chin. they wanna kiss and hold you so bad but they don’t wanna wake you up :’) the cutest aggression is Real

Y FOR YUCK! what are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?

selfish or insensitive people. and you’re far from that.

Z FOR ZZZ! what is a sleep habits of theirs?

lottie wears a sleeping mask bc you like to sleep with the beside table light on (because you watched a scary movie before bed and now you’re scared) and shauna always has cold feet and likes to bother you and lottie under the blanket 😭😭

Shamash Points--Live Action nominations

All eleven people who put in an answer for this got a point! So these three are extra points, and thank you for playing!

1 point for bringing something that actually sounds like something I might find intriguing so I can only assume it's done badly to @iscahwynn

Yuri Is My Job. YIMJ tells the tale of Hime, a clinically narcissistic highschooler who is obsessed with maintaining her perfect, angelic persona in the hopes of landing a rich husband and living a life of luxury and ease. Through shenanigans, she winds up working at a yuri-themed performance cafe where the girls all pretend to be running a salon attached to the fictional St. Liebe Academy. Every girl there performs their wholesome and cutesy character interactions for the onlooking patrons while being absolute dumpster fires as soon as they can step out of sight. Hime assumes she'll run rings around the current staff, but soon learns that she's in the big leagues now when it comes to manipulating people for fun and profit.

2 points for being the exact kind of white women trash I expect to @madegeeky

Deadly Women. Complete garbage. Yes, woman that sounds as though she's absolutely swimming in Xanax, please tell me all about women who murder. The reenactments are a work of art of bad acting and color grading that makes me flashback to the 90s so hard I should sue for whiplash. But, oh, my favorite aspect, by far, is Candice Delong, former FBI profiler. All that energy the narrator is missing? Straight into her. The intensity and enthusiasm with which she says lines like "And that's when the tornado started" is beautiful. She should be both admired and judged for how hard she leans into the drama of it all, especially considering how often she speaks of women killing children. M'am, I'm gonna need you to show a bit less enthusiasm for the child murders, please. It's a glorious trash fire and I love it.

3 points for making me laugh so hard I had to read this whole thing to the dinner table to @skylineofspace

For me, the peak of shows that I am unreasonably compelled by despite being just genuinely not good is ABC’s Once Upon a Time. If one is not familiar, this show is about a group of fairytale characters that have been transported to a modern day nondescript Small Town (in Maine); we follow both the present characters who have lost their memories, as well as flashbacks to their time in the fairytale world. (Until the end of the first season where everyone gets their memories back but we still keep doing flashbacks all the time). Our viewpoint character is the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming (Emma), who comes to the town to get back her son, who is now being raised by the Evil Queen. (Emma spends the majority of the show amicably co-parenting her son with the evil queen in a situation that only doesn’t count as queer-baiting because both characters are never not dating a male love interest). In the hands of a good writer, the concept of the ideal based archetypes of a fairytale being brought into contrast with the real world could make for some really interesting material! This is not the hands of a good writer. This is the hands of former Lost writers working on behalf of the Disney corporation. The specific point at which I dropped out was after they just directly re-create the plot of Frozen whole sale in the middle of season 4. All that being said, I did very genuinely find a lot of the characters to be interesting in concept and the way they interwove a lot of the fairytale backgrounds is exactly up my alley (One of the major characters is Rumplestiltskin, who is also the Beast from beauty and the beast and the son of peter pan (who is evil)).
