often part of my hate for a character is fueled by the reaction they awaken in the audience, and/or the perception that the writers REALLY want me to love them and think they're the best, most heroic guys ever.

other times the way a character is written is clearly meant to embody literally everything I hate, with purpose, and boy. I won't think about them while I'm not watching/reading the source material, or remember them when I make my "top most hated" lists... but once they enter my view again or get name-dropped, the homicidal rage is back on in full force!

this post has been brought to you by a conversation about veronica mars with a friend that reminded me of just how much I wanted sheriff (don) lamb to die (and he did! because sometimes, tv-land is generous like that). but I also appreciated that he was written specifically in this way, with no pulled punches. because if they'd softened him even a little? it wouldn't be the wonderfully cynic little show that it excels at being.

like, in particular, I'm remembering the moment weevil BEGGED him to let him walk up the stage at his graduation, so that his ailing grandmother could finally see him do it, before he arrested him. it would have taken less than half a minute. and lamb refused because he's a vindictive, callous little man. and because veronica mars is not about giving its audience warm fuzzy feelings by trying to convince us that people are good and understanding and really really caring, deep down! they're selfish and mean and petty; real goodness and kindness is rarer than gold and will take you (and veronica herself) aback every time you encounter it. but most of the time? it wants you to see just how shitty and unfair the world is and react to it, with nothing cushy to soften the fall. and it's a better story for it, imo.

#just thinking about the show #not perfect by any means and it definitely lost in quality after each season* and wrote some really ??? shit (season 3...)#but i loved THIS about it so much lol #(((*just so we're all clear: i love season 4/the revival. this is a no revival slander space xDD)))#talking to the void #my thoughts #vmars thoughts #veronica mars #eli navarro #weevil navarro #don lamb

Yes, sometimes I am attracted to the just totally awful villains. Like little to no redeeming qualities. My vagina sadly does not have morals and therefore does not care.

My Luis blog is so fun cuz I’ll find a topic that’ll look pretty simple on paper and I’ll be like Oh Yeah this won’t take much time at all!! And then it Does in fact take A Lot of time

#like a friend made the connection between umbrella and the windmills in don quixote and I was like oh yeah this’ll be simple #no it isn’t. who thought Spanish imperialism would be a complicated subject huh /j #or that one friend that asked about the connection between Luis and butterflies. I am now stuck in a rabbit hole of animals used in #rather horrifying #religious imagery ie wolves lambs fish etc

Dan Lamb (the original Don Lamb)

Frankly, I never liked Dan Lamb especially when he was introduced as Don Lamb’s brother in the movie. Like, we never heard about him at all during the series, and I got a feeling that Rob Thomas stole that idea of Don having a brother from many fanfictions including mine. But I can’t prove it, can I. But that’s the whole point of having a one-dimensional character like Dan, so we can hate the character without any doubt or any kind of redeemable aspect. Don might've been incompetent, but at least he was honest. Dan, however, is openly corrupt even in the books.

Don was supposed to be what Dan was when he was written; this asshole corrupt character who laughed at rape victims and covered up murders. But the writers (not Rob Thomas) and the actor himself gave more interesting twists for Don. The results were the character became fan favorites and more two-dimensional, especially the performance.

But that wasn’t the plan. Remember, Rob doesn’t like the idea when everything is not according to his plan. Especially, he doesn’t like the idea of fans and producers preferred something that he’s not planning. Logan and Don were characters he intended to be temporary, not permanent. For the first two seasons, his hands were tied. It wasn’t until season 3, he had a free range to do what he wanted especially after Joel Silver stopped hovering. Him killing Don Lamb was his first step to get rid both character and actor.

Joss Whedon threatened James Marsters when Spike turned out popular with the fans, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Rob felt the same thing, but the tug of war between him and Joel Silver especially regarding Logan prevented him to do anything about it.

How many fics written by fans regarding Don Lamb? A lot. How many fics written by fans regarding Dan Lamb? Almost NONE. And that’s why Rob wrote Dan. Because, let’s face it, he doesn’t want any fans to fix his character. The Lamb brothers are still polarizing ‘till this day. Some fans can’t stand them, which is fine. They are meant to be. Some fans are glad that they are gone. But when talking about polarizing, nothing beats Piz as a character.

Anyway, I digress.

When RT announced that Lamb was gonna be in the movie, everyone was confused, including Muhney. But he tweeted that he would not be in the movie, while RT was silent. Although he didn’t say why he got killed in the series, apparently, Rob told him that he made Muhney famous, and he could take it away as well. The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh.

Obviously, we heard rumors about the reason why they killed off Don Lamb in season three, even when they already made Michael Muhney a part of the main cast. It took him three seasons to become the main cast, and then they killed him like that. It was shocking, and many fans were confused about why he was killed and didn’t mention it again in the next episode. At. All.

According to behind-the-scenes gossip from LiveJournal, RT just disliked MM. When asked the reason why he killed off Don, he replied that it was all business.

Rumors were swirling that Rob Thomas had a beef with MM for making the character popular (he wasn't intended to be a popular character just like Logan wasn’t supposed to be popular) plus he asked for more money. Back in season 2, lots of guest stars were paid a lot while recurring cast didn’t. So, instead of paying him more, RT’d rather kill him off.

Don Lamb might not be likeable character, but he was pretty interesting. I still remember when they killed him off, everyone was angry but kinda like... understood. Yeah, he was sorta a villain. But he was on his way to be redeemed? RT has tendency to kill off a redeemed character or not giving a chance to those who wants out from the game.

Felix Toombs, for example - he wanted out from the PCHers, so he got killed.

Jerry Sacks wanted to come clean about the corruption in the Neptune PD. So he got killed.

Notice how much Rob sweeps those deaths under the rug? He doesn’t want to deal with dead characters. Cut off the arm, and move on to something else. Instead showing the process of dealing with the deaths, he prefers the audience/readers to leap frogged the whole thing. A concept that seems created by a fellow showrunner, Tim Kring.

Same thing with Don Lamb. According to many blogs on LiveJournal back then, MM was a bit an asshat towards Rob Thomas and Joel Silver, but NOT to the cast tho. He was very friendly with Jason Dohring, Francis Capra, Enrico Colantoni, Percy Daggs III, and even Kristen Bell. MM knew that his character was popular, so he demanded at least he was given the main credit and also more scenes instead of being the 6th on the call sheet.

Of course, Rob had all the power. So he fired MM.

But he still wanted a character played by a celebrity that the fans would like but not get rid of the essence of Lamb. He wanted Jerry O'Connell after he saw his performance in a B-Movie, Piranha 3D - an actor that was big enough of a name that the studio would love. He didn’t want the fans to like him; he wanted the fans to hate him and not write fics about him. He want to get rid of him if he didn’t need him anymore, not have fans clamoring and asking why.

Cut the arm, and move on. That is Rob’s motto. Characters are expendable, especially when it’s not about what he planned.

Ginathon Episodes: Episode 212 (With a little addition)

Kerry follows Gina, pointing out that she hadn't been given an assignment or beat in the briefing. Gina tells her she wants her to work on an assault case that has been waiting to be completed and presented to the CPS. Kerry assumes it's an excuse to keep her from the other uniform officers. "Now why would I want to do that?" Gina asks. "Because of The Smithy Thing?" Gina reminds her she's going to have to decide whether or not to make it official and Kerry tells her she hasn't yet. Gina tells her she can't put it off forever and that she wants her to do the job she's given her in the meantime.

Andrea presses Kerry to find out if the allegation has been made official. Kerry says she's being punished by being kept in because 'she dared to make an allegation'. Do these people not look behind themselves before they bitch? ESPECIALLY when it's about Gina?

Gina interrupts them and continues through to the front office where she finds Adam. She updates him there's still no information from Kerry about if she's going to make the allegation official. Later Kerry finds herself alone as everyone not-so-subtly leaves the canteen table she joins. Tony and Gary make themselves clear they believe Smithy and that Kerry is being cruel holding him to ransom by not giving him chance to clear his name by making it official or telling people that it isn't true once and for all.

(As an aside for @everythingisdragons this is an episode featuring Don Beech as Neil's informant for an armed robbery. It's the first episode for DI Peter Cavanaugh from NCIS (Pronounced Ensis. National Criminal Intelligence Squad, not the naval drama.). He has Honey, Sam and Debbie all batting their eyelashes at him. "I think I've just fallen in love!" Honey whimpers at her first sight of Peter. )

Kerry takes the case that Gina asked her to work to Jonathan. She tells him that the defendants and victims are as bad as each other and have records for similar crimes. A witness saw the attack but couldn't say who started it. Kerry suggests the whole thing be NFA'd and due to lack of helpful evidence Jonathan agrees.

(Jack is FURIOUS when Peter tells him about Neil's information from Don Beech. Neil explains that Don was his Sgt (Don arrived at Sun Hill in 95/Series 11. If Neil is Andrew's age he'd have been 20-23.) Jack wants to hand it over to NCIS because he wants nothing to do with anything that Don is involved in but Neil insists Sun Hill have done the groundwork so should see it out. Peter suggests he stick around to 'help out'. Okaro agrees as Peter has more information on Trevor Little (an Australian criminal that Don works with whilst he was on the run). Can Debbie and Sam be more obvious?🤣)

Jonathan sits in on a conversation between Jack, Peter and Neil with regards to the armed robbery and what they suspect might happen when Trevor Little makes his next move. Jack suspects Don could be in on the robbery and spinning a yarn to take the police focus away from what is really happening. Neil doesn't think Don would do that but Peter admits it is a possibility. Jonathan tells them that they're not just looking at information coming from a bent copper but also someone with a serious criminal record with no sign of contrition. If they were to proceed and the case made it to court, it would have to be a confidential disclosure as to where the information came from. Neil suspects that Jack is only holding back on acting on the case and using the full CID department because Don is involved. Jack reminds him he doesn't have a clue what game Don is playing and warns him to never question a decision he's made again. There's always a price when it comes to Don.

Honey: It's about time we got a bit of talent around here, innit!

Debbie: "There's been a mini influx of male totty lately. I wouldn't say no to Jonathan Fox."

Honey: "That old bloke from the CPS? You're having a laugh aren't ya? But then again I guess he is more your age..."

(Don tells Neil that if he agrees he owes him one, he'll give him everything - the time, the place, the hit. Neil thinks about it and agrees. "It's tomorrow, 10.30, near Butler's Wharf." "And the hit?" "Gems, diamonds... enough for you and half of London to retire on.")

Gina questions Jonathan to find out if he read the entire file that Kerry presented to him. He admits he only listened to what Kerry said and worked from that because she said there was insufficient evidence. Gina points out that her team spent a huge amount of time on the case and says the detailed witness statements and defendants records were more than enough to push it over the line. Jonathan suggests that perhaps Kerry didn't present the evidence in the best light. "Well I think it's still worth pursuing!!!" Gina says firmly. "And I agree with you." Gina's had the wind knocked out of her sails somewhat, having expected more of a fight. "...What?" He promises to look at it again and see what they can do. "Well don't you do me any favours, Mr Fox!" "No favours, it's my job." he says reasonably. "Right! Well! ...Thank you very much!" Gina flusters, fumbling almost with his door before making a quick exit.

Gina calls Kerry to her office before she leaves. She tells her what Jonathan told her about Kerry not presenting the case correctly and calls her out on doing it on purpose because she was made to remain in the station. She tells her Smithy is returning tomorrow so she wants her final answer about the allegation by then.

Jonathan spots Debbie leaving and invites her to go with him for a drink rather than the gym. Debbie agrees as Gina watches them, looking absolutely gutted.

what are everyone’s ranking order for the narnia books. as a kid mine was 5-7-3-4-6-1-2, or something like that, with each number denoting the chronological order. now I have come to my senses about the seventh and I’m midway through a grown-up reread but I think it’ll be something like 5-3-6-1-4-2-7.
