We had plans of kidnapping the writers last season. Good thing now..... they're actually listening to us
yeh part of me wants to believe that they are listening to us. I mean theyve got to have some people doing research right? I think the writers know what theyve got but are scared to use it. I mean this sort of thing could make or break a show- two of the main characters coming together.
I think that they need to stop listening to the ratings and go with their hearts and what feels right for the characters.
I think that theyve (gary and melina) have always played the scenes with a little sexual tension coz thats like a main characteristic of the show but something better has grown out of that.
ill tell you what id love to see. both stella and mac single for a while. Theyve had relationships and it hasnt worked. They both love there jobs too much that it gets them into futureless relationships. Mac cant leave his job for a women and stella cant find a guy that isnt like the phsycos she puts away for a living. i think it would be great for the characters to discover this and talk about it.
it could stem from the 'were alot alike' comment from mac.
the main problem with smacked is that because there so shut off (Rambo stella and broken hearted mac) we rarely get to see the moments and the things that seem to go unsaid. like how did mac really feel knowing his partner had been brutalised by her boyfriend? the only suggestion of this was when mac ran to stellas aid when she was passed out on the floor, the dread in his eyes. Also how did stella really feel about mac hiding his relationship with peyton from her?
These moments would make great television but tptb arnt using them!they dnt seem to be in the script/language, its all in the acting which can be depicted in many ways. thus making it safe by not committing to anything real.
When it is in the script its great like the 'im here for you stella' moment. I hope the characters(like macs shirts) will start to open up more. Thats what we need to see- their development- them realising that theyve become so shut off together that they cant seem to love anything else but work. This will hopefully bring them to a conclusion that there is a reason they like work so much, why their such a team- because their perfect for each other.
