Fuck the BBC! Fuck the BBC! FUCK THE GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING BBC!!

Andrew and I just watched the last episode of The Tripods and he was right; I am not happy with the ending. I am very, very unsatisfied with the ending. As it turns out, when they were making the series back in the 80's, they made the first two seasons of it, and then someone new came in to the BBC programming department and decided that he didn't like sci-fi, so he halted production on the third season. So what they did was end the second season horribly with a terrible, terrible, depressing non-conclusion sort of hopeless ending where the world just gets destroyed and everything is for nothing. Which is not at all what happens in the books, as Andrew tells me. FUCK THE BBC!! I'm trying to think of a good analogy, but I can't particularly think of one, so I'm going with Andrew's: "It's like, for a guy, if right before the point of orgasm, you have your dick cut off."

I'll go with that.
