BEE ESS GEE

I direct the reader's attention to the final section of this rather belated rehash of the finale, which concerns a proposed rewriting of the final season. It's pretty ingenious, actually: "Change The Woman King, Change the Series."



And yes I am quite shameless in my concurrence with the whole Atlantis thing. It's almost too perfect to be discounted as kitch or corny or whatever, and invokes yet another form of belief - the paranormal, New Age, etc. - that consoles in the face of infinity and enormity. (And in historically specific ways.) I would so watch that finale.

So say we all. I really like the review as a whole. I don't think you change Dee's suicide though. Seriously. That was one of the hardest moments of the series. And I'm going to pretend Lissa didn't mention Days of Our Lives.

it's the kindest thing to do.

And you're right, it really does have to be Dee's suicide. Otherwise it's just Bury Your Gays/Gayngst.
