def going better... has quite a bbc charm to it,
hope they keep it up, writing and acting gets better.

[Kenny_Tha_Killa]

So this is twice now you've mentioned the acting. Is there a particular actor you're referencing, or you don't like the group of actors as a whole?

[fatgirlstryhard]

nothing to do with liking or not...
they kinda need to grow more into their roles.

time will tell.

[Kenny_Tha_Killa]

Saying "I hope the acting gets better" infers the acting is sub-par. Unless you enjoy sub-par acting, that means you don't enjoy it.

[fatgirlstryhard]

it's not sub-par, but it's worthy of improvement...

some characters are more believeable than others,
aside from the stereotype casting anyways...

don't get me wrong, they kinda grow on me.

i like the geek char, i like the hottie... but the doc, the strong guy and especially the super sense woman need some more depth. surely they'll develop some more 'story', but their characters aren't strong enough yet. super marksman guy does just fine as he had an entire episode dedicated to him.

[Kenny_Tha_Killa]

Sounds to me like everything you just described would fall under writing, not acting. After all, it's not up to the actors who gets a full episode dedicated to their character.

And who's "geek char"?

[fatgirlstryhard]

it's not only the writing, it's how you fell they 'play' their char,
some i believe it more than others... and the lack of backstory plays with it.

'geek char' is obviously the wifi-retard. pretty stereotype as well.
(but he's good, and for a young actor one of the best in this cast)

don't troll me Kenny, i'm on to you. you are just fishin'.

[Kenny_Tha_Killa]

Obviously. Or it could just be some made up name that only you know the significance of.

Someone asks you to clarify what you're talking about and you accuse them of trolling. I should have known it was a waste of time. By all means, go back to posting pictures of cats.

[Xerxys]

Yeah shortening the word "character" with "char" is kinda stupid if you ask me.

I finally got around to watching Alphas. As soon as this show get's any kind of legs on it, it'll be pulled as fast as you can say "WWE"!!

[Kenny_Tha_Killa]

If they do that, I'm nuking SyFy.

[Xerxys]

Man, shit, I wanna wage a jihad style war on all WWE fans! Can you imagine the shit syfy has been saturated in?

[fatgirlstryhard]

would be sad... has potential. but they are not FOX.

they'll keep it like SGU, which was the best of the franchise,
and fuck it in the ass when it gets their vibe goin'....

Ps.: WWE is for *CENSORED BY LOLCATS*

[Godric]

This weeks episode helped me understand Gary's character more, maybe all of them will get one but they don't want to put them back to back.

Anyone checked out the website for it? It's pretty good.

WTF is Trolling? Everyone acts as if there is a specific set of rules to post. And some sort of cast structure.. There are forum rules for obvious decorum. I have been on Forums even before the internet. But haven't done anything but tech since 99 till now and you all act as tho there are rules other than posted as to what you can do.... I have stepped into a Twilight Zone kindergarten...Unbelievable.

Troll

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Trolling

Trolling is the act of purposefully antagonizing other people on the internet, generally on message boards. When done in a moderated internet community, this can result in banning.

I hope that clears it up for you.

As you can see from the definition, fatty's allegation that I was trolling him was unfounded.
