I'm getting back into NV. I was done at 2x19, but thinking about them, makes me miss it so much. But, DV/NS still my OTPs for the charries. Unfortunately.

Speaking about missing ships... I also kind of miss NB . I think I just miss Nate in general ... when he was a part of the main storylines and not being stuck with guest stars much like Vanessa/Jess had to put up with.

At least we got a lot of CN in the end. But I'm sad we didn't get BN besties. Then again, I'm super duper sad about the lack of BV when there were so many great opportunities for it!

Something is missing and NB in a way represents the old school GG.

I found this on tumblr:

I agree with this but what I found more aggravating is the portray of women in general and the way the fanbase make it own all the elitist bullying and how cheer when the girls on the show insult /degrade each other. This show. __________________

Word, Vanessa.
Hmm... I definitely don't see the "race card" play in GG. I don't think Raina...she was a guest star for half a season and had more storyline than Nate. And she was a successful businesswoman. And Vanessa? That's just because the writers are ****ing idiots who don't know what to do with her. It's not about race. Hell, they brought in her mother, who was black. I'm sure half the audience doesn't really know that she's black. I agree, Karla. It's women in general that's the issue on this show. __________________

Not at least in the way Raina or Vanessa was portrayed.
Although I see a lot of racism in the fandom.I read some awful things about Vanessa that people said that it wasn't for her race but about her character but then I read the same things about Raina and the truth came out. __________________

The fandom itself can be pretty racist... I've seen some pretty awful comments about Vanessa/Jess and Reina/Tika (when she first appeared) which disappointed me greatly. As for GG... the show itself is not racist. I mean it focuses on a world that is predominately about rich white people, so the underrepresentation of people of color and or other minorities is not unexpected.
I have a problem with the way the writers, CW network, and Hollywood in general casts a lot of people of color/minorities as side characters and rarely in roles where they are main or leads in a tv series or movie. The portrayals of those characters tend to be questionable, but this is the way the system is run and it's a refelection of the issues that still exist in society today. Though, some progress has been made on the CW with Maggie Q being the lead in Nikita... there is still much more that needs to be done in adressing the problem. __________________

My main issue with the show is the way they portray women
Tho the CW has TVD were the witches are black,the werewolves have mixed features and the vamps are mostly white. I like the show but it kinda bugs me. __________________
