#and no bad episode 9

[fake-married-my-dead-fiance]

I think one of the things that really worked with Lovely Runner is that the drama was so focused on the main characters. An ensemble drama is wonderful, but if it's going to be a couple-focused romance, then the other story lines need to serve the main plot instead of feeling like filler or a distraction. And this drama pulled it off!

The friend and brother show people making the choice to be in love despite their circumstances and not regretting it, just like Sun-jae. They also showed that Im Sol cannot change what is decided by people's own will:

The parents show people catching the same emotions in every timeline (enemies to reluctant friends for them) They also provide obstacles for the leads to overcome:

Tae-sung shows that Im Sol cares about people even if she has nothing to gain from them. He is also a rival for Sun-jae. Sol saves him from going the wrong way in high school and he saves her and Sun-jae from the kidnapper:

And if course, In-hyuk existed to help Sun-jae be a loser and give him bad advice:

Also, the kidnapper wasn't dwelt on too much (Uncanny Counter had this problem, too much demon backstory), he was just a fate moving towards Sol & Sun-jae. And we don't need to feel that sorry for him because he made the same bad decision in every timeline.

So many dramas get bogged down by side characters or irrelevant story lines in the last few episodes, but not this one! Everything basically stayed focused on the main story and every minor story aided the main story. Im Sol was trying to save all of them. Cohesion!

(one of the worst examples of this done poorly is Strong Woman Bong-soon. The villain got way too much screen time, the side stories were mostly irrelevant to the main plot, and there was so much useless filler, especially towards the end.)

If I had a nickel for every time Santiago Cabrera played a character on a BBC show who was a noble, loyal and highly skilled knight/soldier, who served the king, was a hopeless romantic with only one or two main love interests, the Queen being one of his love interests who he an affair with, leading to life-altering long-term consequences, for both him and the Queen, I’d have two nickels.

Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

I’m not even mad, BBC writers were either onto something or on something when they wrote Lancelot and Aramis.

I’m sure there’s more comparisons, but I’m not finished watching yet so I’m just hoping Aramis doesn’t get banished or anything. They probably won’t kill him, but *

*it was at this point that I realised there’s been foreshadowing and I’m not saying anything because I don’t want to jinx it so I’m just gonna leave this here.

Okay but imagine being lou ferrigno jr and getting the episode 6 script and realising you'd be leaving the show only to get the episode 5 script and realise that you have to then act out what was literally the cutest mushiest episode ever - that also conveniently happens to focus on your relationship,,the one that literally breaks up next episode

The only good thing about this show is Damian being a total mama's boy.

Welcome to Episode 9 of Bad Batch Would You Rather!

*theme music blares as your host glides across the stage*

Last week, we mulled over the question of which Batch cadet we’d like to have in our class if we were trainers on Kamino! Hunter won by a decent margin with 36.5% out of 233 votes … and Crosshair came in last with only 12.9% of the votes 😅 Sorry, Cross, seems a majority of the fandom thinks you’d be a difficult student! Oof.

I really liked putting all the Batchers against each other, so here’s a question brought to you by yours truly because I truly want to know your thoughts…(for this question, we are gonna all board the Tech Lives train 🚂, so find your seat and get comfy!)

What’s your head canon?
