Sanctuary 3.13 - bzuh? and Sanctuary 3.14 - "Conversion, Sanctuary Style"

[tielan]

So, um, everyone in this episode bumbles. Everyone. The bad guys have brains of cheese and can't think through a plan to save their lives, let alone their trade.

Abby's stupid and clingy and blonde in the worst sense of the word. And so much worse than that, "love makes her stupid". Hell, "love" makes Will stupid.

Hm, or maybe lack of sex makes Will stupid? Because this chick has kidnapped him and his date, lied to him, put him in a catch-22 position, and when the truth comes out...his comment is that she's ruined the only date Will's had in months?

Bloody hell. Just give the man some sex and un-stupid him. Please!

The plot is torturous and overly-complicated, everyone's reasons are painful. The only good part is right at the end.

Kate and Declan are cool. And the Big Guy. And Kate prepping the tac team and holding the guy at the end. Revenge of the second string!

*sigh*

I can see why so many people were vastly unimpressed with this episode.

Okay...was it just me or was the epilogue a horrendous case of "let's say how awesome Will is, just in case you were in doubt."

Dear Sanctuary writers,
If you have to tell the audience how awesome the actions of your episode's main character is at the end of the episode...then he probably wasn't that awesome after all.

And then we have Sanctuary 3.14 in which Will Zimmerman turns into Bug!John Sheppard, except without the kissage and the strangling people, which takes away half the fun, because, hey, sex and violence. And the camerawork from Will's POV is kinda nauseous.
