Fringe, Season 4
Mar. 4th, 2015 09:07 pmOkay... so... I have finished Season 4 and I have MANY FEELINGS about it.
My principal thought is that it reminds me of writing a fic -- only it reminds me of that part of writing the fic where I'm really excited about all these ideas I'm having, because they're really awesome ideas, and they're starting to gel but they are still a little all over the place, and the characters! Right then, the characters are basically vehicles to tell the story-- they get moved hither and yon as the plot demands. Usually my beta dings all of these things (I... think maybe everyone who's ever betaed for me has dinged me on this to a certain extent, though they may have phrased it differently? but in particular hiiii![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sprocket, you're awesome), and they get at least slightly better.
So, yeah. I felt like a lot of Season 4 didn't get betaed. And yet it had so many great things going on! ( In which I say lots of random things about Season 4, including Denethor, the failed attempt at Padawan, the alternate Extended Seasons in my brain, and Nimoy. )
