I have one word to say about Southland this week:
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.
Why? Why did they kill off Nate? I don't understand, I just don't understand. You could have killed off Sammy or Sal or Dewey and no one would care. But you kill off a nice, cool, hip, sexy guy who's good at what he does and has some value in the world you created, unlike Sammy and Sal, who are detestable. I am really pissed off at you, show. I don't even understand why they were there -- there's no indication of why they were in that situation anyway, since they'd arrested Spider earlier. I don't mind going for the big drama. I understand killing off a character. But why did you have to pick my guy? Why did you have to pick one of the characters who doesn't make people want to put their hands around their necks and squeeze till their eyes pop out?
And I think of poor Kevin Alejandro, who finally had a great role worthy of him, and who just loved being in that show so damn much, he was such a big promoter of it. Now he's going to be stuck doing every crappy show on TV in one-off roles again. Way to stick it to your actors, show.
I don't even know if Lydia and the John and Ben show can keep me going after this. To have to watch Sammy after Nate... no thanks.
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.
