    And we Woohoos can always understand what's being said. So long as the words "Martin", "huggle" and "Awesome" appear once in every few posts... we're even occasionally allowed to thunk RDA over there. Only on Wednesdays, mind you.
    Duuude...

    RDA *was* TPTB.

    Actually, AT is *now*

    So..

    Uhm...

    Yeah. Everyone's fair game.

      The problem is, essentially, it's generally believed a TV ship can't 'come in to port' while the show is still running. They're a bit of a negative premise (the classic being, of course, Gilligan's Island - they were NEVER getting off). So the trick is to indicate 'change' in a ship without ever letting the ship actually get anywhere near it's destination. Or, if it does, blowing up the port or sinking the ship so they have to find a new one or having them attacked by pirates or...

      Anyway.

      You get the idea.
      Is it bad I know some of the ships you're talking about...*sigh* I love old TV shows! (even when I notice in the end how the ships are..."resolved" if ever...)

      You are right with the keeping the angst in it at all costs. It's just too darn frustrating and it doesn't work. I like it when a ship is resolved, believe me there are still enough angsty and bad scenarios for them when they are together....

      but I do get the idea...

      I am just glad that S/J was handled this way. Although when I just started with this ship I wanted more obvious, but now I'm like. It's obvious enough and it looks real. In RL you also aren't talking ALL the time about your husband/BF etc.

      Though, tbh, after awhile, the entertainment value in TV ships becomes not the actual events of the show and the characters but the saga of How TPTB Will Keep Them apart. Sometimes, that's more entertaining than anything else (you should hear Jennifer watch Grey's Anatomy and Bones *snark*) My all time personal favorite, though, was Charmed in which they blatantly admitted it was because it was against the rules of TPTB. That one still makes me giggle.
      Jann watches GA and Charmed to. Charmed was too funny...but it was solved and then they screwed it up after S5.
      as for GA...it's my guilty pleasure because I love gutter!

            Awesome. Just Awesome.

            Oh btw OT(but SG related)...went to the movie Avatar earlier tonight:
            Spoiler:
            The "wormhole" connection thingie you see everytime he person is linked with the avatar...looked exactly like the SG wormhole with other color

            Loved the movie overall though. It was superb! Really. Really. Good.

              Jann - everyone knows that angst makes gutter SO much more satisfying

                so i finally came up with a title for My AU Script Story. It's Titled "No Hope" i remember when they were coming up for titles for Season 10 on IMDB they had this title and it was going to feature General O'Neill Apparently. So I just thought it would make a good title.

                  lol. I don't just like GA for the gutter,though. It's like bubble gum. Disengage the brain for a bit and just sort of coast on neutral without ever having to have my mind or emotions actually engaged beyond the merely superficial.

                  Wow.

                  Way to rain on the parade, Jenn...

                  Um.

                  I like it cause when I watch it I don't have to think and can just go, "Aww..."
                  without becoming emotionally invested

                    *mutters* you and your unhealthy love for angst...



                    So...when do I get to read a new PB? *pats foot impatiently*

                      It really has been too long! Do you know, there are shippers here that don't know how annoying I am? That saddens me greatly! I might have to stage another coup...(hehe, I accidentally wrote that as soup...staging soup wouldnt be too bad...it could be potato-spam soup...ha!)

                      watch yourselves, shippers...I'm souping!
                      as long as the soup contains lots and lots of potatoes I'm game.....

                        *blinks*...I'm so the opposite there. I'm a big Derek/Meredith shipper...

                        but erm...it's disengaging for the brain I do have to admit that. Something nice without thinking too much...

                        Oh and my moms reaction when I'm watching it and she comes in it's either
                        "They're doing it again?" or "You know there is always someone dying in that show"

                        Back to S/J; I am glad the ship is worked out as it is so far...I do hope for something more obvious in movie three...but in a way...not too obvious.

                        I would love to just see the team together(like in S10 at the cabin), but watching a movie or so...and Sam comes in late(talking about the Hammond) gives Jack a quick hi kiss and they go further like it's normal...and then all hell breaks loose(sp?)

                                Yes well...

                                Actually neither...just the rest of the movie. Some good old action, SG-1 etc. And angst. Lots of angst.
