meganbmooreShow, why are you having black people sacrificing themselves so white people can go save the world(s)? I mean, you kind of really fail at race in general, but that one especially sticks in my craw.

Date: 2012-06-12 03:12 am (UTC)Yes. Like, at the beginning, we had the complicated antagonism/respect with Broyles that grew into respect and Olivia and Charlie and Olivia and Astrids seemed close (for Olivia) at the very beginning and of course her sister and niece. Now we're down to Astrid, who mostly gets treated awfully by Walter (I don't think this is deliberate and I think Walter respects and is very fond of Astrid, but the way the show has him act towards her because of how he is is awful, and I was so happy AltAstrid was actually treated like a respected professional, even if she is sidelined from the action) and Broyle's getting walkons, basically. There's also Nina, of course, but the one time they've interacted (so far for me) this season was all about PETER. And AltBroyles was such a good opportunity for them to have an ally on the other side who also wanted peace but nope. Like, Olivia in the other world is, IMO, by far the best part of the season so far, and part of that was that she was having RELATIONSHIPS, even if still mostly with men and they were based on AltLivia's relationships, but they were changing a bit because she wasn't the same and so they were becoming hers too and I really just want that show...
