sailorhathorDear Jensen Ackles,
If you ever want proof of what a devoted fan I have become of yours, I am about to offer it up. Get ready for it.
Today, I started watching season 2 of "Dark Angel."
Yes, I know. Devoted, I am! Because "Dark Angel" has got to be one of the most godawful shows ever made. You are the only bright spot in a show where Jessica Alba, who could not act to save her life, plays the main character. Ohhoho, I know! Devoted!
It's hard to put my finger on why the show sucks so bad, because they try. The writers really try to come up with interesting plots. And "Proof of Purchase" had a nice setup, yes it did. But then why did I find myself so damn bored that I ffwed through scenes that did not feature your wonderful grey area character, Alec? I certainly don't know. I just know I was bored and rolling my eyes everytime Max and Logan tried to drum up some Unresolved Sexual Tension. Then my finger would just wind up on the FF button without my knowledge of how it got there.
Usually, all the doofy nicknames being given to people left and right would appeal to the kid in me, but even that scene had me cringing. And you coming into a room and announcing that anyone was your "breeding partner," I'd usually be glued to the screen, but this time, I was actually glad when Max gave you the brushoff. Why is this different?
Was it too much "hip" dialogue crawling with so much slang I thought I was watching a dubbed episode of "Sailor Moon"? Was it the animal mutants that could have been okay or maybe even cool if they hadn't been so damn stupid? Was it the amazing boringness of it all? I have no idea! I found myself liking some of the escaped transgenics. I definitely enjoyed the funny dialogue they gave your character. And I can see how some of the plots were *meant* to be interesting. Then WHY WASN'T IT? Did Ms. Alba's aforementioned awful acting really drag down an entire show? I DON'T KNOW!
All I know is that throughout the entirety of the three episodes I watched today, I thought, "This sucks. Oh God, this sucks. PUH-LEASE, your show SUCKS, shut up. Why does this SUCK so bad? Auuuuuugh, kill me, KILL ME, this is HORRIBLE. OOH, THERE'S JENSEN! Okay, that didn't suck so bad. Ugh, Jensen's not on the screen anymore. This sucks. Eeee, he's back! And he just took off his SHIRT. MmmmMMMM come to mama. Okay, he's off the screen now...... This sucks."
Usually, when I collect on an actor, I tape the entirety of episodes in which they appear. "Dark Angel"? Nope. After the first episode, I made copies of only the scenes in which you appeared. The show SUCKS that bad.
So, please do not ever doubt my devotion.
Love and kisses and jumping your fucking bones,
Laurel
I'll recap the rest of my vacation probably within the next 24 hours. I haven't been feeling well since I came back, so I'm going to the doctor tomorrow and having him refer me to an ear, nose, and throat specialist.
