beccaelizabethI think I hate Hex more than any TV show I've ever watched.
Since I knew this weeks ago, why the hell did I watch another episode?
Well because the radiotimes.com said it was the last one, and I wanted to see if they resolved it.
So what did they do? Whole season has been evil fallen angel trying to get main character into bed. So he managed that. So in this one episode they make her pregnant, make it all mystical so by the time she gets to the next day doctor appointment she's 20 weeks along, make her go in for a termination and then make the fallen angel corrupt the doctor so instead of aborting he delivers the kid and puts it in an incubator and looks after it.
and apparently the kid is the key to letting 200 more fallen angels out into the world. so thats the second season set up.
but... WTFingF were the writers thinking?
I can't believe this was compared to Buffy!
They make the central character a girl, they give her fancy telekinetic powers, but is it relevant to the plot? Is it heck. Its all about her having sex. But only because she was possessed! Sex makes you evil you know. And then pregnant. And that releases hell on Earth.
It makes me *sick*, it really does! Why the hell did they make it? Why was this a story worth telling? So deeply wrong!
Story worth telling goes: girl gets power, girl learns to use power, girl saves world a lot.
the other thing is just plain creepy.

Date: 2006-03-30 04:30 am (UTC)That did happen on Buffy [and Angel]. All three, in fact. It was just written incredibly well; I don't know Hex, but I'm guessing that's the difference? Or else I'm missing sarcasm somewhere here. In which case, I shall delete and skulk away.

Date: 2006-03-30 07:14 am (UTC)on Hex there was skanky evil fallen angel and possession and sex just being entirely bad. no subtlety, no layers.
and on Hex it was the *whole story*
Buffy had plots. Buffy saved the world a lot. Buffy had kick ass power and a mission and all sorts of stuff going on in her life.
Hex had sex.
Its the whole difference between saying "women can have children" and "women can only have children".
