First, (((((((((((((((Gatebee)))))))))))))))))))) Ya know I loves ya, right?
With that in mind, I just gotta say... Monlighting crashed and burned for many reasons, the biggest of which was LOUSY WRITING. But that's not the biggest tragedy of Moonlighting. That series made Resolving the Unresolved Sexual Tension issues that television series have been exploiting for years virtually impossible.
Every time some one thinks about giving the "given" Ship Resolution, someone jumps up and says... But Look At What Happened to Moonlighting! No one ever jumps up and says.... Look at what happened to Dr Quinn! They Resolved that relationship and kept going for a couple more years. Their storytelling was still interesting. They don't jump up and say Look What Happened to Lois & Clark! They don't jump up and say Look What Happend to Farscape!!
Resolved Sexual Tension is much harder to write well, and frankly, it scares the hell out of these writers that are banking on the Eternal Tease to keep us tuning in. And just as frankly, I'm getting rather tired of it. Which is probably why I've been watching less and less tv over the years. In fact, SG1 is the only program I watch faithfully. Once it's gone... Hollywood is gonna have to work very hard to produce something that will catch and most importantly, *keep* my attention. And of course, a good Ship is a must, and if it's not being handled in a way I feel is supportive of that Ship and responsive to the fans (like SG1 was for it's first few years), I'll be tuning out pretty darn quick. After all, there's enough good Fanfic out there to keep me entertained for years!
Off my soapbox and off to work for real now. Just had to say something about this topic, as it's a bit of a pet peeve of mine!
((((((((((((((SHIPPER FAMILY))))))))))))))))))
Just cos this is the first place I've made a post like this with out sweating bullets on how it will be received! The Shipper Family Rocks!!
Thanks BrenRen for your input. I do agree with you that it is far harder to right when romance has been resolved and that is why TPTB are weak.
I m watching 'thread' for the fourth time while i m typing, the best episode ever
Those of you who are located outside the U.S. need to show some compassion for us... While your enjoying watching Mobeius and Threads, let's see... what's next on the American schedule? CITIZEN JOE! That means Threads and Mobeius are forever away.
So show us poor Americans some love and compassion, Okay??? We're in enough pain as it is having to wait so much longer...
