I think we're on 2:7 anyway. I'm kinda losing track...


There are NO WORDS for how much West needs to die. For fuck's sake. I'm seriously starting to wonder if the writers have actually ever... I don't know. It's half past one in the morning and I just had to go pick my parents up at the airport and I'm very tired. But Claire is a bright, determined kid. Or she always was. Now just what the hell is she doing? West, you're creepy and rude and shouldn't have come over. I think I'll kiss you as a reward. WTF? And yeah, the first little peck was a dodge so she could tip over the photograph, but then she was perfectly happy to lie there and snog him. *shakes head*

and Mohinder. Mohinder... what the HELL are you doing? I have this clear vision in my head of Sendhil reading the script and wondering if his superhero power was multiple personality disorder and mental retardation. I love Mohinder. Don't get me wrong. But in the last few episodes he's been horrifyingly inconsistent. Doing things that just come across as completely out of character.

Matt. I love Matt. I love Greg, I have from his first scene in Alias, and he's done nothing to dissuade me since. He was rocking his powers big-time and loving Molly and he was totally my hero in tonight's episode.

Hiro. I thought they should have played up the cutting out his own heart a little more to make the tale work better. Except that I also wanted him to be just that glad to see Ando again.

Sark, Andy, whatever your name is, please, for the love of slasher fangirls everywhere, will you fuck Peter's brains out? Or perhaps back? Yeah, you can fuck him and he'll remember the sensation, and realize that he has men to get back to in New York, and that the irish bird was just a passing phase. Damn, though. David/Milo is teh pretty. And with the healing powers they have? the sex could go to a whole dirty place.

Speaking of the irish bird, Caitlin. Honey, they've done you wrong. You were kind of looking like a pretty kick-ass character for a minute there, and now you're screaming and weeping and abandoned in the post-apocalyptic future. Is it just me, or are the women on this show losing their autonomy at a rate of knots?

Good to see Molly up and about. I really liked what they did with her in the scene in the fugly 70s room.

Nathan. Darling. You need to have a little word with the people in hairdressing. Just saying.

There's a lot I love about this show, but most of it is back in S1. I'm kind of feeling like they need to pull their shit together. They've got a phenomenal cast trying to do their best for the team, but consistency with characterization is becoming a huge problem. I think they are sacrificing coherency to the god of mystery. I don't think it's a good plan. I accidentally saw some of the trailer for next week. Usually I don't like to do that. But they seem to be promising us answers to all our questions. I'm nowhere near the stopping watching point now, but I will be happy if they give us an explanation for some of the WTF they've been pulling.

In other news, I finally talked to my best friend since I was seven today. First time we've actually spoken since 3 August. Which wouldn't be unusual at all for my days in England, we only spoke once a year or maybe twice then, but now we live 1/2 hour apart, it's not really good enough. We've been playing phone tag, and I'm not sure either of us thought we'd ever actually speak again.
