Yeah, shows are dropping like flies lately. I hear some people say it's because of streaming, but I think it's just because the newer shows just aren't equal to the older ones.

It seems that the average viewer has the attention span of a gnat and needs constant action to engage with a show, at least that's what the writing implies

Thanks for agreeing with me, Arinna. For once.

Yeah, I agree, Lila. The internet and social media doesn't help either.

I got a little of my Simon/Isabelle ship today, but not much.

Glad your ship is working out, Alex. The Umbrella Academy is over and I have to wait till season 2 of Good Girls for that ship. So for the moment, I'm a sailor without a ship

Thanks, Lila. Well, it's not proceeding as fast as I'd like, given that this is the final season, but I'm hoping things happen really soon so we get as much Sizzie as possible before the final episode.

Let's hope so, Arinna!

There's not enough romance in shows. Just hooking up is boring and depressing. Romance adds color and beauty to life

But recently in the shows, everyone sleeps with everyone. No romance at all.

I agree with both of you. These younger writers these days are lazy. They write like fanfic writers, not real screenwriters.

Ernest Hemingway once said, "writing is easy... you just sit in front of a typewriter and bleed." Well, how exactly are you supposed to get good writing from a hypersensitive, politically correct snowflake generation that never wants to bleed, or have anything happen to them that would make them bleed? How are you supposed to get real drama, tragedy, comedy, and romance?

Yeah, I know.

And my Simon/Lizzie ship will soon end once Shadowhunters is over. Only 9 more episodes.

My Bruce/Selina ship is also gonna end soon. Only 3 more episodes left for Gotham.

It'll probably be a different actor, though, Arinna.
