LO:CI RANT

I have spent the last two months collecting caps of each episode of LO:CI. Now I am halfway through what has been filmed so far this seventh season I find myself slowing down and not wanting to reach UNTETHERED. I just finished SMILE which has left me pissed off at Eames again. "It's too late"

I did not discover LO:CI until season 5. I have watched each episode in order trying to figure out what happened to Bobby. I realize his mother's deterioration played a part, but if you watch each episode closely Eames does and says little things that undermine his confidence such"go ahead, impress me," and "a smell you can't identify." the look on his face after each jab is hurt not amusement. For those B/A shippers I believe in the LO:CI world Bobby and Eames had an affair beginning sometimes after she returned from maternity leave. I think it ended somewhere during the 5th season and that along with his mother contributed to his own deterioration.

He should be going through the stages of grief recovery. But those little jabs Eames makes at him and Frank and his nephew are pushing him deeper. His wearing jeans and a suit jacket instead of being impeccably dressed as he once was is a sign he is not recovering and his constant need for her reassurance. I am afraid they are planning for Bobby to be killed off the end of the season (If Mr D'Onofrio is ready to leave the show as rumors are saying...you know how VDO loves death scenes.)

I base this on the fact I have four networks that play LO:CI. USA, NBC, BRAVO and CBS late night. They are really pushing the Logan episodes. Last week out of 29 episodes shown 19 were Logan. Now I like Logan well enough, in fact I quit watching the mother ship when he left, but he is not Bobby.

I enjoy watching LO:CI and am already grieving the loss of Vincent D'Onofrio's. I have his CD's of course and all of his movies except one. My mother never understood my collecting his, she calls them all soft porn. Didn't stop me from continuing to collect. I would miss VDO...desperately, if he decides to leave, hope I am wrong. seeing him once every year or two in a movie is very sad compared to every other week.

Well, that is the end of my rant, am looking forward to June.
