What are some moments that just left you screaming WTF??!?!
I just saw the first two episodes of Buffy season 5. At the end of episode 1 they introduce Buffy's sister. They don't explain, or mention where she came from. They just show her and end the episode. Which would be fine if they addressed it in the next episode. But they don't. They don't go "oh hey we have never ever mentioned her existence, but here's the background." No instead they completely ignore that she's just showed up and magically everyone has known her for years it seems. What really got he was the way they treated her. Like they need to teach her the way. Which would also be fine if they didn't present it like they have been doing all along. Like she's always been there and I'm just barely tuning in. It just came off feeling like it was Season 1 Episode 1 and everything I saw before that was a dream. Let's just pretend this was never a TV series, like we never filmed that part of Buffy's life and the show actually started here instead.
Unless I just barely some how traveled into a parallel universe...
I call shenanigans, FUNK THIS SHIT!

Yeah I figured something was up a little bit after, but still.
Figure she might be a demon pulling something like Johnathan or Anya did. Don't want to look it up though, I'll just wait to be surprised.

All will be explained. It might seem like a Superboy Prime wall punch, but it is explained

It would have been better if someone like Spike or Anya had not been affected by the spell that inserted Dawn into the history of the Buffyverse. Watching either one react the same way that we all reacted to Dawn (as in going WTF nonstop) while being ignored by the rest because they are vapid (Anya) or beneath the Scoobies (Spike) would have been great.

Well that paid off I guess... I'm a bit underwhelmed by the revel to be honest. And Tara gets cuter and cuter each episode. I did like Dawn narrating, hope they do it again. The psycho beast chick is pretty cool as well.
Loves Buffy Spike is still bad ass, but I miss evil but still awesome Spike.
When he drives off in his car at the end of an episode to look for Drew, and he's singing that punk song. Or when Buffy and Angel are fighting. "By God I think he's going to kill her!" and then just shrugs like nothing and carries Drew away. Good stuff.
The only really awesome Spike part in season 4/5 was when he was posing for the camera shots in the Buffy/Xander/Willow/Giles dream episode.

He had quite a few awesome moments, such as the fakest accent anyone could come up with ("I'm just a friend of Xander's), the episode "Pangs" ("A bear, you made a bear!"), getting pumped that he could still fight demons, his speech about why they should save Buffy, and then realizing he hates her and walks off. But in season 5 Spike sucked. Hell, in season 5 the show started to go downhill massively. |

Zack being the serial killer's apprentice on Bones, although a later explanation did make it a bit better.

I know that arc was hurt by the Writer's Strike, but they should have solved Grave Digger in season 3, and waited till season 4 to solve Gormogon. The way it was, there were no hints that it would be Zack. There were more hints that Hodgins would be Gormogon. That whole storyline could have been saved by delaying it to the next season, and actually give us hints as to who it was. |

In an episode of House, an operation is about to start, just when House discovers the patient has a tapeworm. So House just barges into the operation room, takes his scalpel, cuts a nice line on the patient's stomach and PULLS OUT the worm.
Yyyeeaaaah, right. First, I don't think anyone, even House, would ever be allowed to just enter an operation room and cut someone open without explaining themselves and without being tackled to the ground.
Second, I'm no surgeon, but I doubt they just make a single cut without even paying attention to extract a freaking worm that is twisted around someone's organs. Besides, while House apparently has skills in surgery, he is a diagnostician and isn't a specialist in such operations, so why did anyone let him pick up a scalpel in the first place?

Breaking Bad's Season 2 Finale... Yeah, the way the show's creators explained it still made me scratch my head. I don't care if you're trying to use it as a metaphor for karma backlash, two planes colliding over your house because the air traffic controller was too distracted by the sorrow of burying his daughter that you watched die, it's a little abstract. |
