Date: 2008-08-21 08:42 pm (UTC)Weird to be going through the stages of grief for a TV show and I'm pretty sure I'm doing them out of order but harumphf. So there. *Cue theme song from the Titantic here*
Since I've been zinging back and forth between pissed and mopey all day, I can honestly tell you that pissed feels better. ;-)

Date: 2008-08-22 05:49 pm (UTC)I suppose the grief thing should could be a little weird. Then again, I cried more when Tosh and Owen died than when I lost my grandfather. It's just the kind of twisted little person I am. And considering what a big part SGA is of my so-called life, I think I'm allowed to grieve a little!

Date: 2008-08-22 08:33 pm (UTC)I ended up catching the second half of Heroes. I cried *buckets*. I sat in my hotel room and sobbed. I've thought about this--when I shed not a single tear over my father's death, and I believe that for me at least, shows, like pets, offer us a safe emotional outlet where we can let shit like that out of us but without any possible chance of rejection.
TW has had me in tears a few times too (quite often for secondary characters like the guy who couldn't believe he was dead and kept trying to get through to Gwen). I'm bummed to find out that their 'season 3' will now consist only of a 5 hour miniseries according to the latest on the website. I honestly don't know what is wrong with TPTB at the moment.
I have a *lot* emotionally invested in SGA--first fandom I ever posted stories to, the fandom that motivated me to start writing again after a long dry spell and the fandom that has embraced me cheerfully. The thought of losing even some elements of that is what is making me a little insane at the moment (well that and the sense of being insulted whenever I read an interview about the new series, the younger, hipper crowd they're aiming it at and the annoucement that they intend to go with a 'known' actor in the lead and fill out the cast with 'fresh new faces'...grrr, here I go again with the anger thing).
What was I saying? *red haze slowly clears from eyes*
Oh yes, most of my whining is fear-based and I'm sure with time, my fears will abate.
But the thing that has made me smile today is that I read someone referring to the new show as Stargate: 90210. *snicker* I hope that tag catches on in a BIG way.
