Debate/Dislike a Ship Thread -- CSI:NY

Probably Non Smackies would be satisfied with a platonic relationship. Not us for sure :D

Our writers can do it and they can do it well. They have got enough experience with previous canon pairings on CSI NY so they can write situations for Mac and Stella. Because those are the only things Mac and Stella need: scenes, moments, situations. They already have enough chemistry to use in other 5 shows :D

So our writers choose the lunch or the dinner and Mac and Stella say "Voilà" :D

Chemistry is very subjective. We have already had that discussion, but once again: there is only friendly chemistry between them. In my opinion. I know that you Smacked-shippers see some romantic chemstry, but I cannot simply see it.

I still meant what I wrote about keep the platonic relationship and letting Mac and Stella remain friends. It's not only because we non-smackies want it. I mean, would it really be that bad if they just stay friends? I can't see any harm, and you smackies can always continue hoping and praying something will happen. It might not be fun, but it's completely harmless. It is not what you want, but it can't be that awful as you gotta accept that you cannot always get what you want.

For us non-smackies who don't see the romantic chemistry and how it could last for another 5 seasons, it would be terrible to see something develop that way. I swear, I would definitely stop watching the show. As I just can't even stand the idea of Mac and Stella together, and it would be even worse if there would be something romantic for a long time.

So the best way to keep everyone satisfied is to keep Mac and Stella as friends. I understand if Smackies want a relationship with Mac and Stella, but many smackies seem to be happy with friendship too. Even if they would prefer a relationship, they absolutely don't mind only friendship. Notice, this is what I have seen while reading some Smacked-posts. I may be wrong.

Even though I'm a Smac shipper, I do agree with some of your points, Vildis. :)

Nope, it's not at all bad if they just stay friends. To be honest, as much as I love the pairing, I'd much rather they stay just friends than see the writers destroy the friendship because they don't write the romance very well (sorry, but I just have very little faith in the writers when it comes to romantic storylines these days lol). That's why I really feel that if they do ever hook up Mac and Stella that it should be done in the last season or the very last episode of the series. That way the writers can't destroy the beautiful friendship that the two of them have. :)

Yep, I agree. I have a pretty healthy imagination and if I really feel the need to "see" them together, there is always fanfiction. :lol:

I agree with this. I'm totally fine with the friendship. If they never become a canon couple, that is okay with me. I can daydream that they are more or read fics where they are. :lol:
 
Nah, you are not the only one who has a little faith in the writers at the moment. It's not only because I worry about the romantic storylines (even if I am a little upset taht they decided to NOT continue on the Adam and Stella-story, as they created a story with these characters for a couple of seasons and ended it early in season 6). I also think that the storylines in general have been missing something. I cannot say what it is yet. But this season haven't been as good as previous seasons.

But I agree with you, I am also afraid that the writers may destroy the special friendship between Mac and Stella if they shall get an romantic relationship.

I'll start! :D

Not a fan of the idea of NY going for "canon" ships. I've always been about subtlty. So the idea of them going with the Danny/Lindsay thing is pretty lame to me. I think if you need a scene in every episode between the two characters, somethng is seriously wrong. Real chemistry doesn't need to be "sold" like that. If it's there, the audience doesn't need to be beat over the head with it in every episode. It's just not there with Danny and Lindsay at all.

Couldn't agree more if I tried but I'm still gonna try anyway.
You know why they're beating us CSI: NY fans over the head with the Danny/Lindsay ship, don't you? Cause the writers have finally realized what I've been saying all along. Back in season 4 starting in the episode "Child's Play" the writers wiped out, killed, annihilated, destroyed the chemistry, magic, spark, electricity, whatever between Danny and Lindsay and they haven't figured out how to revive it. Personally, I don't think they can revive it. I think that Titanic has already sailed and sunk. Before "Child's Play", the chemistry, spark, magic or whatever between Danny and Lindsay had been jumping out of my tv set and beating me up. Then along comes "Child's Play" and POOF it's gone in a puff of smoke.:scream:

I kind of agree with this. While they still have a scene here and there that is a little cute, the major sparkage is no longer there. And you're right, Carolyn, it pretty much dissapated after "Child's Play".

That's because it was obvious they were intending on separating Danny and Lindsay at that point. Then Anna Belknap got pregnant and they decided to change directions and shoehorn the pregnancy in and repair what they intended on ending with lame, off camera explanations of what they should have showed if they had every intention of keeping them together. It's hard to have chemistry when the actors didn't even know the status of their relationship and then they have to go off an explanation given by an EP that they never acted together on screen.
 
When was the debate over?

When PA got home!:lol:

Quite right...And replace her with Ricki, pity it didnt work out they ruined Danny and Lindsey.
 
About the DL; again this is my opinion and you don't have to agree with me, but for me there doesn't have to be a scene like a kiss and stuff to show me they have chemistry. For me this chemistry is existing since the moment they appeared on screen together for the first time in Zoo York and still is there. For me they had chemistry since the start and still do. When they weren't a couple yet, there was this teasing and flirting and the whole tension. Now it's moved on to a different level, because even without the kissing to me the closeness between them clearly comes across. For me they also didn't take a bad turn or ruined it or anything at all. But again, this is just my opinion.
