Yeah, USANetwork definitely has a habit of giving us pairs - het and slash alike - who seem so perfect for one another, only to never let it happen.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-28 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... probably unintentional.

They're giving you what you want, inspiring a devoted fandom, keeping people watching. It's a smart move on their part.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-28 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Erp, I mean that it's intentional. They do it on purpose. It's a strong dynamic that people obviously respond to.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-28 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
It's intentional in the sense that they've created shows with strong characters and relationships. That's USA network's motto "characters welcome" meaning their shows are about the characters more than anything. And when you have well developed characters with well developed relationships, you get slash.

In some shows it's more overt than others (pretttty sure it's a running joke in White Collar with Peter/Neal).

Or in one case an OT3. I am so so so so SO sick of them throwing random women at Neal just because they feel like there's got to be a romance in everything. I'm not sure I want the OT3 to ever become canon while Peter has so much power over Neal (even though I really think El is the queen of everything) but I am just way more interested in the dynamics between Peter, El, Neal, Mozzie, and the rest of the gang than I am in Neal's dating life.

I totally understand this feeling; it's a shame that a show can't have two main characters of the same sex in a relationship without their sexualities being the center of the show.

But for whatever reason, I got over Harvey/Mike quickly. It just doesn't push my buttons like I expected it too. The relationship is adorable, not denying that, I just have no real problem with them being just friends and find some of the other shows possible pairings (het, slash, and femslash) more interesting.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-29 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
I know that feel. The writers HAVE to be in on it. Bottom line. Sometimes it's like watching fanfic.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-29 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, IA, especially because the Jenny/Mike/Rachel(new girl whose name I can't be arsed to remember, is such a weak plot-point, and I cringe every time I see it those scenes. I started watching in the first place for Harvey and Mike's relationship, be it platonic or otherwise (I would really love otherwise), but I'm starting to not enjoy the show because of all the awkward, stilted focus on romance. :/

Not a slasher myself...

(Anonymous) 2012-09-29 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
but the USA ship teases are getting a little annoying.

On a completely unrelated note, stoned Harvey is hilarious!

IA. Own up and actually make them get together instead of just dangling it in our faces.

Re: Not a slasher myself...

(Anonymous) 2012-09-29 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
nayrt

I feel this way about common law.

COME ON, USA. IT'S SO BLATANT, YOU KNOW YOU'RE TEASING US.

I'm still half convinced that wes and travis will end up getting together as some twist (mostly because I think having wes get back with alex is too predictable and I'm sick of the "divorced couple eventually realizes they still love each other and get back together" trope).

I know I'm just kidding myself but shh

yeah, other networks do that, but to the same degree as USA has been. i can't tell you how much i want one of those pairs to actually get together, even if just to see the fallout from it, both from fandom and the media.

Did I write this in my sleep and not realize it? I've said this exact same thing before. /wistful sigh

Harvey and Mike are SO in love.

However, I wouldn't mind an OT4 with Donna and Rachel.

Jenny, however, needs to step the hell off.

And another spiteful bitch sees the error of her ways.

OP here

(Anonymous) 2012-10-01 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
I object to the spiteful. I was never ever mean to anyone shipping slash ships. I just laughed in an 'oh you' kind of way. But yeah, have totally seen the error of my ways...
