#she's at least as canonically autistic as like sheldon cooper or whatever quirky white man of the week #there are characters who are stated to be autistic in like One episode and its never touched upon again. very common in 2000s shows #if they're allowed to be canon autistic characters so is tina #and also bob but he's doing. whatever he's doing in the corner with his attachment to food and cooking #my beloved autistic burger chef #txt #bob's burgers

i genuinely love when you can tell an older show was Not made with high quality video viewing in mind. i am watching knight rider and constantly seeing all the little mistakes they surely brushed under the rug thinking nobody would see them on their crunchy little CRTs back in the 80s, that are huge attention grabbers now in HD fullscreen on my 3 foot computer monitor

the biggest one of course is all the drivers/controllers for the (in-universe) self driving car, kitt. there's guys tucked down in the footwells who can't always stay out of the shot. there's a guy who has a Car Seat Suit to blend in and look like the drivers seat from a distance, but you can always tell when that's the method they're using for a particular shot because its so much thicker than the passenger seat next to it and the headrest is missing it's cutout section. in at least one instance he starts taking the suit off too early, on a focus shot of the damn car, so its REAL visible.

all the extremely obvious stunt drivers or performers who look nothing like the character they're supposed to be

props, such as animals, vanishing from the car interior for stunt/race sequences.

the production crew (or their shadows) being visible in the background. only at a glance, but its especially hilarious in shots where nobody else is supposed to be around

the camera panning out from a sound stage set far enough that you can actually see over the edges of the set and into the stage they were filming in. mostly this happens with their truck trailer mobile unit thing.

this one isn't a mistake but every time the car "turbo jumps" they CLEARLY hide the ramp behind another car, a prop, the environment, and its just. so charming. sometimes its blatantly on screen just for a moment. like... of Course in real life this car isn't magically leaping 20 feet, of course its a ramp, but it's still so silly and fun to be reminded of how they were doing those stunts to begin with.

also not really a mistake but related, the bracket they keep on the front of the car for stunt work.... is just left on half the time. cuz it's a pain to take on and off.

and there are more examples that are more unique that haven't cemented themselves in my head well yet, but these are the more notable or common things i see and it's really charming. if i'm not giggling to myself noticing the "seams" and flaws and so human imperfections of your show or movie what EVEN is the point. hollywood is too flashy these days i think!

#liz blogs #knight rider #kr #tv production #1980s #television #i dont even know if this is a 'older tv' thing or if its just a knight rider thing because i've seen all of classic columbo at this point #and i think i can think of... maybe one or two times you saw the edges of a sound stage room. and thats it #i dont know Why its like this i dont know how common it is for shows of the era but i love it to bits. cannot get through an episode #with somebody without pointing out the quirky little things i notice. #y'know what hollywood really can burn there is such a great backlog of media to watch #i need to gif that guy pulling off his Seat Costume in the MIDDLE of the SHOT. that was so fucking funny. my favorite blooper so far #a lot of these have to do with kitt bc he IS a prop but its extremely funny how hard they push the 'HES INDESTRUCTIBLE' thing #and every other boost landing has the car looking like its gonna snap in fucking half like a twig. got some ROUGH landings #i wanna know how many stunt kitts they went through they really beat the shit outta those cars sometimes #i think if this show were free on streaming like columbo way more people on this site would like it it is a weirdly charming little show

so does Stampede Vash wear the glasses specifically to keep light from reflecting off his eyes so that people can't see the Plant pattern because if so that's so hecking clever

#not yet ary #trigun stampede #trigun #me talking #my understanding based off of posts ive seen is that the pattern isnt a thing in the original #so if his glasses in stampede DO work to cover that up #then making them bigger than the og design isn't just updating the design to something thats cooler for 2020s fashion sense #it adds them to the list of 'things that are quirky about Vash until you know whats up with him and then you go OOOOOOOHHH.... HEY' #...so being caught up and watching episodes as they air has not served to make me normal about this show #my likes are fit to burst soon

Justice is weak and empty.

One cannot win against villains with justice alone.

If merciless justice exists, I'm willing to yield to it.

Even villains long to live in a peaceful world.

However, since that's impossible, I've taken up a new hobby.

Getting rid of garbage.

If I don't do that, people will die, buried underneath the garbage.

There's one last thing I'd like to say from a villain's perspective.

Evil is prevalent and vehement.

- Vincenzo Cassano (Episode 20)

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SHOW.

If it hasn't been apparent enough, I adore this show. From the first episode to the last, everything works for me. The casting. The cinematography. The dialogues. The ost. Every single thing hits right. It includes almost all of the tropes I like. The humour is just right for me. And same goes for the dark scenes. I cannot coherently explain how much I love this show. And I've watched plenty of dramas but this will probably remain the best drama I've ever watched. I also love the parallels the show draws. And I also love that it didn't end the usual way and left Vin to be the amazing villain he is and HCY to be the badass lawyer she is. Hands down, the best drama I've ever watched.

AHHHHHH.

#i would also like to make an honorary mention of the prison scene where sjk talks about his origin and gatto sazio #it was a brilliant brilliant scene and the best in my opinion #it is also hilarious to me that almost half the episodes ended with imminent danger or tragedy to vin and hcy #and it increased progressively more in the last half of the season #fighting for their lives day in and day out our chayenzo #i love this show so much #i'm also grateful that they gave us some lighter moments like hiding the gold bringing the quirky hcy back in between the darker moments #in the final episode #this show is going to consume my life for years to come and is going to be my go to show whenever i need a breather #i had stopped watching kdramas for two years and this fucking show dropped me right back into it #and my god sjk is a gem #and so is jyb #and the whole cast #ahhhhh this show makes me so happy #episode endings #vincenzo #song joong ki #vincenzo cassano #jeon yeo been #ok taecyeon #hong cha young #tvn vincenzo #chayenzo

If anyone with Netflix isn’t watching See you in my 19th life, what are you doing go watch it right away! Because this show is making me FEEL things.

The writing the acting the music ahhh… all are perfect! The way they all form a harmony that work together to reach into your heart and remind you what loving someone feels like. The loss of them being taken from you… The beauty and purity of first love and childhood love. This is the best drama I’ve seen in a long time.

#Netflix #kdrama #see you in my 19th life #they really took a potential love rival and said ‘cry over her and the MC instead’ #😭😭😭😭💕 #also episode one will make you smile and think of Izuku ❤️ #somehow mc is a combination of Katsuki and Izuku 😭 #it’s not all sad I don’t wanna spoil the show so I can’t say more #the mc is quirky and her setup is interesting

Hey, love your posts! I really recommend wedding season series (hulu,2022) it has 8 episodes and it was good with the main characters whump too. I would really appreciate it if you could make some gifs from episode 4 or 5, thank you so much <3

hi my dear anon! thank you :)

gotta say, i went in just to watch the whumpy episodes you mentioned but the first episode already got me hooked. i stayed for the plot! the show is so so good! im surprised how little it’s mentioned on social media or anywhere.

the main character is so endearing and he is such a poor little meow meow i can’t. first of all, he is an orphan, has a core friend group that’s his found family (THEY ALL HAVE SUCH GOOD CHEMISTRY WITH EACH OTHER! ONE OF THE BEST FOUND FAMILY DEPICTION EVER), a doctor, a hopeless romantic, he always wants to be accepted, loved and belong somewhere, he falls in love with a girl that puts him through a ringer, she’s a mystery/a heroine and has so many secrets so she puts him in so many dangerous situations— he gets punched, beaten up (multiple times), intense interrogation, kidnapped (multiple times), tied up, shot at (multiple times), heavy angst, a fugitive, survives assassination attempts TWICE, bruises all over his face, body and robe burns (pretty sure the make-up artist is a whumper because the attention to details is just exquisite *chefs kiss*), lied to and manipulated throughout the episodes and THAT CLIFFHANGER WILL MAKE HIM TRAUMATIZED FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE THAT WAS SO AHHHHHHH! JUST WHEN HE WAS FINALLY HAPPY WITH THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE :(

the thing i love about this show is that he is the damsel in distress and she is the heroine who is this mysterious person with dark past and keeps putting him in or saving him from dangerous situations. love this kind of trope. and the actor has this natural charm that makes you feel for him… (plus he is so cute and hot and that accent *heart eyes*)

i mean look at him all cute and happy before the shit hits the fan… his little cute dance has a grip on me im weak

that being said, yes anon, i have made the gifs you asked for and then some hehe as always i got carried away. THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING REC 🧡

#that neck bruise did stuff to me #wedding season hulu #wedding season #this is such a fun quirky show #HIGHLY RECOMMEND! #a whump in almost all the episodes like the series the recruit lol #there better be a second season because that cliffhanger is brutal #working on the gifs now will post them soon #prepare for the incoming whump spam my friends…🥂 #and the way he always ends up sleeping after an adrenaline rush haha i love it! #bless the make-up artist for not ignoring all the bruises he collects throughout the episodes haha #ask #answered #whump recs #my gifs #p/s: ​excuse my incoherent thoughts #i get too excited lol

As much as I love Gilmore Girls I really wish I could rewrite it because so many choices the writers made me like why would you do this????

#to be fair I only watched the show in full once 2 years ago but the one thing that really bothers me #is that Jess (one of my favorite characters ever probably) is sent to live with his uncle aka Luke because he’s causing trouble and his mom #can’t handle it or whatever and then later in the show she becomes a prominent character and gets rebranded and has a horribly unfunny #husband and it’s just like???? why didn’t they show her trying to become a better mother to Jess first??? why did they just have to bring #her in as some sort of quirky character who is essentially just a problem for Luke to deal with which gave him an excuse to ignore the love #of his life Lorelei #just so much of the show makes me want to pull my hair out but god I felt so empty when I watched all the episodes it really filled a void #in my life as someone who never went to actual high school or college and it was fun to see a girl do the things that I imagined I would do #when I was older back when I was like 6 and didn’t understand how life worked #anyway #I need to sleep #autumn rambles

[digitalafterlife]

last thing that i'm going to say about the lodger is that the doctor essentially plays the narrative role of manic pixie dream girl to craig and sophie

#shows up. brightens up your life. shifts your outlook and perspective. injects you with a newfound optimism. quirky. disappears #that's it. he's a manic pixie dream creature. good contrast with the previous episode because he couldn't be that for vincent #<i do this to myself!! #dw #jamie catches up #jamie.txt #the lodger

[stop-breaking-my-heart-telltale]

Hey CJ 👋 I hope you’re doing well in life.

I’m on the same page as you, when it comes to taking a step back from TWDG & the fandom. And, coming back to the games after sometime & seeing it in a different light. Some things that didn’t click with you back then, makes a bit more sense now.

Also, I’m curious.. what are thoughts on true colors? Steph & Ryan? 👀

Hello, my friend! 👋 Been a while! But yeah, I'm doing fine; a lot of the usual work with writing fic and blog posts in between.

Yeah it's funny to step away from a fandom you're so engrossed in for so long, like twdg was such a huge part of my life back in 2018-2020 with me running this blog, writing fic, and streaming. Now I'm just in a completely different headspace in general, and looking at the games now, they're still amazing but my reasonings are different. Also I talk about the comics a lot, which isn't something I would've guessed I'd be doing. If you go back to when they were announced, I made posts being like "yeeeeeah I dunno if I'm gonna read them :/" jokes on me. I read them multiple times, I need to make that useful haha.

As for LiS True Colors, I actually super loved it?? way more than I ever did the first LiS game?? though I think I might've loved it for the wrong reasons. I don't know, I haven't actually looked into what LiS fans thought of it compared to the other games, but for me it was a "perfect time, perfect place" game in the moment. To me the whole thing was nearly a perfect escapism game; the music is an A+, the entire town is gorgeous and covered in flowers and woods, Alex gets to live in a nice apartment for free [the true fantasy], there's a whole LARP campaign to play through, a flower festival where I've never been so conflicted on who to give a rose to, and overall just the coziest vibes. I swear, I spent most of the game just wandering around the town looking at all the flowers, it was great.

Like if Gabe didn't die and True Colors was just about Alex moving to this fantasy-like small town and working through her issues with the help of her powers, I would've been 100% on board. I didn't mind the mystery, though I totally guessed Jed would be the twist villain given the first episode immediately presents him as a hero who saved a bunch of people in the mines, I was like "Oh did he now... mmhmmm mmhmmm and he's Ryan's dad, oohhh he's gonna be this game's Jefferson-" except he was done better than Jefferson imo. He didn't turn into a cartoon character and his motivations behind the cover up were interesting. He didn't do it for the aesthetic like Jefferson did. And in the end I got everyone to side with me, except Charlotte because I told her to take the money so she wanted to speak out but couldn't, which was honestly fine with me like take their money, send Ethan to college, we'll stab Typhon just fine without your vocal support.

I liked most of the characters, except for Diane and Mac, though I reluctantly disliked Mac less by the end... Diane can suck an egg, though. I don't think I've ever wanted to throw a character out a window more than when Alex came back all bloodied with a bullet wound on her head as she exposed the truth and when she asks why no one's saying anything, Diane just goes, "We don't want to embarrass you" kjlkajdslkjalkjdl LADY DON'T PISS ME OFF

As for Ryan and Steph, I liked them both, trying to choose between them was absurdly difficult. It was like True Colors saw how easily I picked between Louis and Violet and took it as a challenge to create Ryan and Steph specifically to stump me. I mean, soft boy who loves nature, goes out of his way to be kind and helpful to those around him, has a slow build up to being emotionally available with someone he trusts, and has some daddy issues? A girl with pretty brown eyes who loves DnD and LARP, has a passion for music and will deflect with humor, who knows who she is and is eager to help those around her, and who isn't just another rehash of Chloe? They knew what they were doing; they dressed Steph up in as a witch after having Ryan act like a goof acting like enemy creatures, they were made for me.

Having done both routes, I do prefer Steph. I adore her and Alex together, but Alex and Ryan are super cute, too.

It's not a perfect game and there are issues in the writing but honestly, I don't care. I had a good time. I was engaged. I looked at every single flower and kissed a pretty girl so good that the world exploded. What a great game.

#asks #oh and the last episode was like whiplash like i was having a great time then alex got shot in the head and gabe showed up to make me cry #like i just wanted to look at flowers and kiss steph and this mystery is really killing my vibe sksksksks #though tbh i liked the mystery and what it was going for anyway #and the choices were fine like at this point i've played enough of these games to know what 'your choices have consequences' really means #and i accepted it so it's easier to enjoy #but the biggest compliment i can give it is neither of the love interests were a chloe sksksksk #a sapphic love interest who doesn't make girlboss gaslight gatekeep her entire personality as if it's quirky? #who doesn't act like she's above criticism because of her sad backstory and only has any growth in the last twenty minutes of the story? #who doesn't have to blame somebody otherwise it's all her fault? who doesn't constantly wish her ex was here? amazing thank you true colors #listen i'm sorry but i don't like chloe i never liked her and i never will okay we have to accept that

17, 22, 68. 😊

17. What do you do when writing becomes difficult? (maybe a lack of inspiration or writers block)

I think since I tend to write in spurs and only work on one thing at a time, I rarely get writers block. However, if I find myself stuck at a certain part and just aren't sure how to move forward, that's just a sign that I'm done for the day and my two braincells need to be recharge. So I mindlessly scroll the internet, play a game, and watch some vids... maybe eat something too...If I haven't, I tend to ignore that when I get really focused 😤. I come back to it when I'm ready, and that could range from days to a couple of weeks. I don't force it.

22. Are there certain types of writing you won’t do? (style, pov, genre, tropes, etc)

Reader x Character, especially if they're a real-life person. I mean, I can't read them that long writing them, but my gosh, if it's not hilarious to see people act out the 'standard' scripts, and then there was a point where Youtubers would read and would react to those fics about themselves and I was done.

68. What, if anything, do you do for inspiration?

I read and look at other people's fanworks, interpretations, and headcanons about characters and shows alike. I think I can add Youtube video analysis in the mix, those are also fun to watch, and even if it's on a completely different character or event in a show, I'm able to think about how it could fit to this person if that makes sense. For as toxic as Twitter can be while lurking, there's the occasional user that makes some sense on a Fandom thing, and it makes think differently about something.

#key answers #those Harry Styles and The Weeknd fanfics were wild from what my sister used to tell me when wattpad was in its beginning #and the whole quirky long hair in a messy bun comfy clothing not like other girls main character 🤣🤣 #that was a wild time!!! 🤪 #I like coming across blogs here and seeing a user go through every episode of a show providing their commentary and it's funny too #everyone on here is funny or I just laugh at the littlest of things #Nostalgia can make you blind to somethings flaws and when its finally pointed out you're like Yeah that doesn't make sense actually wtf 🤣🤣

[gobblegang]

Having just watched the first 2 episodes of picard s3, I appreciate it has flaws but I am giggling. I am having a silly little time. I am theatrically gasping at twists we all saw coming. So it's a win in my book

#it feels very movie-esque to me in a way i am really finding fun #like it seems like the kind of quirky 1 off episodes you sometimes see in episodic tv shows but just extended #which i am very much enjoying #and i do love seeing the gang #so 10/10 so far from me #star trek #star trek picard #star trek picard spoilers #picard season 3 #picard spoilers

I had the funniest dream last night that there was a new episode specifically for s2 of H2O. It was just a revamp of season 1 episode 10 the camera never lies but Rikki and Zane teamed up to film something underwater at Mako Island. Rikki was the camerawoman and Zane was the actor (as you do when mermaids are involved).

Filming went well, there were no sharks, and Zane had the money to buy a bunch of cool stuff for filming underwater including breathing tubes and air pumps to explain how the camerawoman could stay underwater for so long (the show just used their actual versions of them because I mean. They had them. At the very least they had them for the scene where Zane sinks in the Lorelei. I don't see why they wouldn't still use them for some s2 shots).

But when they finally got back and were watching the footage they were like oh shit. They can't show this because Cleo Emma and Lewis are going to realize what they did, and they're going to realize they're dating and that Zane knows about Rikki.

So it ended up becoming a hot potato game of passing the footage between each other until Nate got his hands on it and entered it into the competition for himself. So that gave Zane and Rikki a bit of an out because Zane could just say Nate was filming him, but Rikki is upset because she put a lot of work into the film and now she's not getting credit for it. Especially since last year essentially the same thing happened where she made a film and couldn't use or get credit for her work.

Zane ended up forfeiting the submission because of it and shrugs it off when Rikki is like why would you do that, you totally would have won again, it was leagues better than everyone else's. And Zane was like. Yeah. Exactly. You wouldn't have gotten the credit for it, and I don't want to win if it isn't with you.

So, totally unrelated note, I think I just came up with a new filler episode for my H2O fic.

#Cuz it IS an annual competition... I'm just saying... #The A plot being that Lewis has to work with either Charlotte or Cleo and Emma for the film this year #So it's Emma and Cleo vs Charlotte and Lewis #And while Charlotte is very artsy and Lewis has a history of winning... Charlotte can also be very bossy and controlling #So she tries to take full control of the project and tell Lewis what to do so he's basically just doing the work for her #And he has to sit her down and be like 'Charlotte. I teamed up with you because I wanted to work together. This isn't that.' #I love her but she can be very controlling. I know it because I can be that way too #So can Emma btw but the show doesn't treat Emma as terribly as it treats Charlotte 🤔🤔 it treats Emma as quirky and Charlotte as evil #Anyway I personally think Charlotte and Lewis winning the competition after they work out the issues in production would be really cute #Listen. Charlotte might spiral by the end of actual season 2. But I'm going to fix her. She's going to get a redemption arc. I'm not #Going to treat her like trash like the actual writers did solely because they needed an antagonist. It's not fair to her #H2O au #Cruddy rambles #This is going to be my replacement for Hocus Pocus because I consider Hocus Pocus to be non canon #I also think comparing Emma's actions in s1 vs her actions in s2 vs Charlotte's would be a good way to show the reader hey. Charlotte isnt #Actually a horrible terrible no good villain. She has flaws just like the other girls but she's also a decent person when they're not #Constantly being highlighted by the writers to make her out to be an irredeemable antagonist #Also every episode in H2O has to feature at least like 5 minutes of merm. Well I have that with the part I had a dream about so it's perfect #Tho I wouldn't be opposed to there being a bit in the middle where Lewis transforms and has to run off from Charlotte who freaks out #And that's what prompts their talk about her fully taking over the project and smothering all of Lewis's ideas/suggestions #It's very much a reflection of how she is when planning his birthday party but you know we are going to approach this less in the context of #'She's an irredeemable villain' and more in the context of ''she's a teenager with flaws'' #Because that is way more reasonable and hey... If it ends up having a butterfly effect on how she acts later on in the season... Well... ;)

just had my heart broken by a tv show episode (riverdale S7E19)

#odim #i know people love to shit on riverdale but its been my favourite current show this entire time #people hate that theres randomly gangs and cults and crimes and that they all talk weird but thats what i love #because maybe i dont watch enough other shows but i feel like they mostly edge away from anything dark or different #just like 'lets do something fucked up'. 'lets do something that isnt already out there' (at least within its genre) #i feel like thats getting rarer and rarer now #in a time where everything has to be a hit from the start and mindlessly relatable quirky family fun #:/ btw my point is that im gonna miss the show and thought the episode was very good x
