solitary_summerOnly one more episode? *cries* (And can't wait after that preview...)
I was chewing my nails, I really was. Oh, Morgana.
Is it childish (or at the very least a bit immature) that what I really love about this show is that it isn't always doom and gloom and tragedy, the worst possible choices and the worst outcome, but without being too saccharine or overly moralistic in the way American family-orientated tv shows tend to be, actually has people learn and understand and change for the better? Finding a chance at reconciliation? But after suffering through the frustration of watching Smallville for five seasons with Lex going to hell no matter how hard he tried, after JW and his penchant for torturing his characters, Angel, with everyone going to hell in an even more literal sense, or even Torchwood's often quite unrelenting existentialism it's such a nice change to have a show that's filled with really nice moral dilemmas, a dash of darkness, but still has you happy, instead of depressed at the end of the episode.
And I knew the dragon had an agenda of its own!
Must be off now, lots of Weihnachtskekse to be made...
