osprey_archerDay 05 - A show you hate.
I usually just quit shows if I’m not enjoying them, so I’m not sure I’ve worked up the requisite rage to say I really hate one. I find the popularity of certain shows baffling (why is it that no one else wanted House to end with all House’s coworkers banding together to throw him off a cliff?), but then I am a fan of the failtastic 2 Broke Girls and people who live in glass houses can’t throw stones.
Though I still do feel terribly betrayed by the soap operatic hash that Downton Abbey has become. The first season was so good, and then - !
But nothing can take that first season away from me. Nothing. Someday I will rewatch it and finally finish the super-fluffy pre-OT3 fic where Branson & Sybil & Gwen have an impromptu picnic in the bluebell wood after the Renault breaks down. (Obvs. Branson and Sybil were secretly driving Gwen into town for a job interview. Also obvs. Branson and Gwen planned the picnic ahead of time and made a bet whether Sybil would ever stop to wonder where the sandwiches came from, given that she’s used to things she needs appearing like that.)
