Drive-by admonishment to non-Guardian shows that shall remain nameless

[rheasilvia]

Guardian has really spoiled me! I find that I am now unreasonably irritated when shows don't give me the intense emotional connection(s) that I want to see... or only in tiny little doses.

Or when they don't give the right characters enough love. 

YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG. Do better, show. Be like Guardian.

Hmmph. ;-)

Generally I'm not too bothered by this kind of thing when I watch a show and just find it mildly entertaining and fun - but when some aspect of a show really *does* work wonderfully well for me and the rest doesn't quite deliver, I am frustrated. Argh. If they just did BETTER, it could be so lovely, and this way it just... falls flat in some way.

I'll send you a PM! :-) I will post properly about this show at some point (unless the ending is awful), and I don't want to start by slinging mud at it for not loving on my favorite character enough. ;-)

Oh yes, that's definitely a thing with me, too.
