the l word, dollhouse & tscc

[4kennedy]

Better late then never, right? Well, there wasn't a lot of subtext going on anyways and it took me some days to realize and to accept that the l word is really over. I'll mostly ramble about it in this post.



Last week's award for the slashiest couple goes to Bette and Tina! Why? Because it's the last chance I've got to give it to them and they were indeed veeery slashy. Not that hard for a canon couple, but their sex scene was so sweet and fun and tender. My shipper heart was happy. Especially when Bette said that she would like to marry Tina when they would get to New York. Aw *wipes away some tears of joy* they also deserve the award because they survived the final episode, they survived the craziness that was season 6 and everything Ilene did to them over the years. They are the last couple standing. Also the morning after scene was great, sitting on the steps, drinking coffee and enjoying each others company... Shane walking by... it was a nice tribute to the pilot.

Let’s talk a little bit longer about the final episode. First of all I have to say that I have made my peace with it. It wasn't easy; Ilene did a pretty good job with trying to piss off as many fans as possible. But we all knew in advance that there would be a lot of loose ends, answers and explanations we wanted would be denied and couples would be torn apart just because Ilene doesn't like to play nice.

Still... Damn you, Ilene, for breaking up Helena and Dylan. This was totally unnecessary. Dylan knew that it was a set up and she confided in Jenny? Seriously? Why would Dylan do such a thing?

Damn you for turning Tasha into a hypocrite, letting her act out of character and breaking her and Alice up. For me it wasn't a reunion when she came over to Bette's and Tina's home at the end. She only wanted to be there for her as a friend.

What the hell was Nikki doing in the bushes? That's suspicious. But for me Jenny killed herself. I can't see any of the others doing it and I have to believe it, because otherwise I would have to say that it was Bette. She was very angry and upset and had the best chance to kill her. But I can't see her doing it, then going back and watching the video. Besides eventually it could come out and Betty would go to jail, Alice would be released and the happy tibette ending wouldn't be happy any longer.

A lot of things went missing over the years... pets, people, Alice's bisexuality, Jenny's cutting problem, Shane's drug problem, Alice's pills problem, Helena's kids, Dana's ghost (what kind of a ghost haunts someone only for one time?) and so on. Sometimes the storylines were great, sometimes they were ridiculous, sometimes they were crazy. We loved characters, we hated characters and we didn't give a damn about some characters.

And even if Ilene keeps throwing crap at the fans with the interrogation vids (after six years without giving us a background story for Tina, we get incest? And Shane burned down WAX? Why would she do such a thing?)...

... The bottom line still is: I'm going to miss the show and the girls.

Honorable mention in the slash department goes to:

- Dollhouse. Echo and Claire. When Adele walked into Claire's office, Echo was putting her shirt back on. Medical examination? Oh yeah, I bet Claire examined Echo very thoroughly.

Honorable mention in the department 'made of win moment':

- TSCC. Cameron and the pigeon. "Goodbye, bird. There's a 51 % chance I wouldn't have killed you." Aw, such a cute and creepy terminator.

Feeling:  blah

all i can say is that i agree with you on the season finale. i want to believe Jenny killed herself (or at least Nikki did it) cause if not, i'd have to think it was Bette which would be... yeah, anyways.

wtf on the interrogation tapes. they are just... BLAH. (considering how worried Shane was in 501 it is just impossible she did it...)

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

if Jenny didn't kill herself, I hope we'll never find out except Nikki did it. Maybe everyone had good reasons for saying "You're fucking dead meat, Jenny" but it still doesn't justify murder.
the interrogation vids are totally ridicilous and I don't understand why Tina and Shane would tell things, secrets like that. they have nothing to do with the case. As for Shane's reaction in 501 and her confession = again with the inconsistency, Ilene.

I'm gonna miss the l word, even though I haven't watched *points at tv being a twat* in awhile, but I'm still gonna miss it.

Jenny :( Even though you had your moments, You were one of those characters that I liked. -- Bette being top of course -- I hate to think someone killed Jenny, but I also hate to think she did it herself, ya know? -- and Bette doing it? seriously makes me sad. I don't think she would do it though, right?

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

yeah, I can't stand the thought that of the main characters killed Jenny, no matter how crazy she sometimes acted and pissed the others off, it doesn't justify murder.
there's also the possibility that it was an accident. and no, I don't think either that Bette would do it.

Echo/Claire definitely have some subtext moments and I hope they'll have more in the future =) oh yes, Claire seemed really worried that Echo's eyes weren't okay.

All those problems just disappeared and were never discussed again *sighs* and I'm still wondering why Shenny never had a real sex scene. I had/have quite some problems too with the ending and some plotlines during all seasons, but as I've said, I've made my peace with it. we unfortunately can't change what Ilene has made out of it :/ and I was very upset for quite a while.

new tv shows always help me too to get over another one. I haven't watched Kings so far. I'll add to my 'have to check it ou' list =)

Die Tina-Storyline hätte wirklich interessant sein können und ich war am Anfang noch happy als sie von ihrer Family angefangen hat zu erzählen, aber es so den fans an den Kopf zu werfen und das nach Ende der Show in nem 4 Minuten Clip?! Wtf!?! Dafür hätte ich Henry verzichten können *würg*
Helena wird bestimmt ebenfalls etwas total grandioses enthüllen, was meilen weit entfernt ist. Sie ist Kanibalin und hat ihre Kinder gegessen. *pft*

sitting on the steps, drinking coffee and enjoying each others company... Shane walking by... it was a nice tribute to the pilot. Just what I thought :-D.
Oh and I saw it as Nikki killing Jenny because of what she was "doing" to Shane?? Did I get that wrong?

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

tibette <3 the only really happy things about the finale for me.
Nikki? well, she could've killed her as she was hiding in the bushes, but I don't think that she had really good reason to actually kill Jenny.

[kehleyr.livejournal.com]

well the way she was talking it sounded like she had killed her and Shane telling her to shut up since the cops were right there.

And yeah I agree Tibette was the only happy things in the finale.

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

that's true, but somehow I don't believe it. of course I would prefer if it was Nikki instead of one of the main characters. Maybe Ilene doesn't know who killed Jenny too. she just wanted to give everyone a 'good reason' to want to kill her.

Okay i love you..i do, in a non creepy stalker kind of way..okay yes i do stalk your lj. anyways. the l word cannot be over, that is something you have gotten wrong *starts to cry a bit* it cannot, they will do a video or something. like sex and the city. *prays to the gods (even though she's athiest)* please please please make a video. damn ilene. anyways i hated the tasha/alice break up, or more imporantly i hate jamie or whatever her name was i forgot already lmao. and tibette is the last couple standing, even though all the shit they went through (tina going straight? WTF?? and how could the incest not be brought in during like the fourth season or something..really i want to know more i'm picturing a heather locklear role?? maybe not.) and again i say WTF TASHA/ALICE BREAKUP??? although you know now it gives me my in to kidnap alice and have sex with her whenever i choose, which would be all the time of course. and i think nikki killed jenny, didn't she say You're fucking dead meat, Jenny (i'm sure she said something along those lines on her balcony when she kicked everyone out of her apartment) bette would never, she may think about it but she had angelica and she wouldn't risk angelica losing her mom. she may beat up jenny but not risk being thrown in prision. no way in hell that shane burnt down wax, she was at a party or something then she came back and fire. paige did it, i think shane just may have been covering up for her. ??? *questions looks* and don't even get me started on dana's ghost. blaaaahhhhhhhh. they couldn't have even had a greys anatomy thing where alice has sex with dana??? gahh. and alice's pill problem oh my god i totally forgot about that. and the whole pyshic telling helena that she would date someone just like alice. aww i wish they would have made helena date alice, that would have just been like amzing considering they're the two top people i would like to sleep with from that show (minus bette and tina because i still think they are my true parents and that the parents i have just kidnapped me from them :( ) anyways i rambled and probably have like way more text than everyone else but just my long list of opinions lmao.

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

omg! I have no clue how to reply to such a long comment O_O I hope that there will be a movie, but I'm doubting it. Besides it would only give Ilene the opportunity to screw everything up once again and I'm glad that at least Tibette got their deserved happy ending.
thanks for sharing, my little stalker ;) I appreciate it a lot.

[supergossipgirl.livejournal.com]

lol the whole time i was reading that bette was distracting me...jeeze louise i cannot stop staring at her. *deep breath okay yes i agree maybe not a movie...hmm maybe someone will pick up the idea and make a show about the kids, like bette and tina adopt a kid (and maybe bette carries a kid) and tasha and alice get back together and have a kid, and then its like all the kids dealing with having gay parents (and being gay themselves) in LA...i always figured tibette would come back, they're just too la. lol. and i like my little nickname 'little stalker' :D

[4kennedy.livejournal.com]

oh yes, I would like to watch a show like this. it could be lots of fun and yeah, Tibette would definitely be going back to LA at some point.
great you like your nickname ;)

[supergossipgirl.livejournal.com]

of course i do, its amazing. lol. of course they'd go back to la they ARE la. lol... i think i may pick up that show. omg i could write a fanfic for the kids, i think i'm gonna do it. lol.
