nothin' but the rain

→ Dear spoilers, Would you kindly fuck off? Thank you. (P.S. What is wrong with people?!?!)

→ Watched the season (series?) finale of Off the Map today.

I am not really all that invested in Mina and Tommy. I like Mina, I like Tommy, but together they just don't interest me. Case in point. Mina's final story this week was really touching to me. She finally got her redemption, the redemption that she needed and deserved. I was loving it right up until when she hugged Tommy. But as soon as he opened his mouth and confessed his love for her? They kind of lost me. Sad to say.

I love Lily, and I hope Mateo lives! He was pretty cute coming to visit her at the clinic and talking about how he hadn't seen his girlfriend in a while and yeah, I think their romance is cute. Coca aside. So I was concerned and yet not overly heartbroken to see that he'd been gunned down. I think it's because his character isn't all that developed. If it had been Lily who was shot instead, I think I would have been more disturbed by it.

Was it just me or were they trying to revive a little of the Lily/Ben action there at the end? I wouldn't be opposed. Romantic entanglements are fun to watch. I'm not sure if that's what they're doing but I definitely caught a whiff of something. I liked her whole transformation. The clinic itself, the jungle, being in this other no-named country, it definitely seems like it changes you.

Speaking of changes, I can't believe that Ben called in his old pal (forget his name) for a transplant for Ryan. I can't believe Ryan didn't go to New York! It's all so... dreadful! And he's right, how the hell are they going to get a heart? It's not like getting a liver or a kidney transplant, this is somebody's heart we're talking about here. But by gosh, give her the heart because I really like her! (Also, how weird would it be if Abby ended up being a match? SO WEIRD. Except, then the clinic would have to close and no more show. Boo. Unless some other mysterious benefactor comes into play.)

Otis and Zee were cute! Charlie is awesome! That is all.

I hope they renew this show!

→ I don't know if I mentioned it, but I watched The Killing last week and caught ep 3 this morning/afternoon. It's normally not my kind of thing but I'm loving it. It must be all the rain that makes me like it. Plus, it seems like things just got 1000x more twisted. I really enjoy the two lead detectives. They're really great and they have a strange sort of chemistry I like. She's all calm and stoic but a little bit tense at the same time. He's loose and little bit of a firecracker. There's a sense that they kind of trust each other already, despite just meeting. Or maybe it's just respect for each other's crafts. They both clearly have very different skill sets. I think my favorite thing about it is that we're following one investigation throughout the whole series. This has the potential to be quite the interesting mystery.
