That's more of what I was hoping for.
So true, Ted had been broken down throughout his whole life. He lived a very reserved lifestyle and never believed in his worth. Though his mom seemed loving and supportive, which is good, Ted never adopted self-love, which is the most important kind. When he goes off to Emmett about the "voice in his head" I tear up so hard. It's a little conflicting though, having Scott as Ted's actor, because Ted is clearly written to be "the ugly one", and those voice's in Ted's head seem to make sense for the character, but not so much for Scott-because hello, he's quite handsome. So I have to kind of keep that in mind during that part. That's so true that all the external love he had, and even the success in his job couldn't ever bring him happiness, or convince him that he was worth love. His wit is very enjoyable to us, but I don't think it was as much so for him. It's so heartbreaking to watch both of them go through that. I still applaud Emmett so much for being SO loving and attentive for as long as he could possibly stand it before Ted tore him to absolute shreds. At which point, I applaud Emmett for having the self-respect to finally leave him... __________________

What's sad is that Ted did try to drag him down. Unintentionally... I mean, I don't believe he wanted to, it just happened. I'm SO, SO glad Emmett didn't get addicted to that stuff along with Ted. He could have easily developed one, but fortunately he didn't. His resolve wasn't very strong, though, and it took Brian basically telling him "Ted's going to drop dead soon if he continues down this path" before he could get out of that situation. Brian just might have saved both their lives here, because had Emmett gotten hooked on that stuff, they would have been each other's undoing.

But I always feel sory and sad how it goes on after Ted started to fight for himself. I don't want to say that Emmett shouldn't pushed him away after everything but wish they could find a way to each other after that. Quote:

Not that I like to see Brian in pain and being sick. If I could choose, I wouldn't write it for him - and it's not because I don't want to see him so lost, fragile and helpless. But they put him through this sh.it so I would want to see it all, not just some part. It's the same was with Justin and bashing - the difference is that cancer takes time but with bashing they didn't need to write that Justin was so traumalized and then he was so quickly fine - it was too unreal. Getting better it's a process, not marathon. You can't skip some parts, it's not a victims or sick people choice. |

I think what we don't have is a defined timeline.. it makes us think it is over quickly, but we really don't know.. yes we have Mels pregnancy as a little help, but nothing else.. With having a sister treated for BC, and a brother in law with TC, I know that treatment is up to at least 3 months, if the surgeries and radiation is the lowest you get, cause they found it early enouh.. after that it has a lot of followups.. soo.. not seeing the real timeline, it might not be that unrealistic.. we don't need to see Brian go to treatments every episode ..it is enough to see him suffer a few episodes, and I mean he does to the end of the season __________________

But it's thread about Ted and Emmett Every next time I see them and all they've been throuh makes me so sad. Mostly because how it ended. It helped Ted in the end, makes him stronger and finally he could finf himself again. It was so good to see him fighting to cme back to his life, to get it back. Wish they could be still together. This time it would be much different, they both learn a lot and become better somehow. I don't like to think about it. One more reason why I feel depressed watching the series. ;( |

I agree we don't know the exact timeline. And I also agree that with a lot of season 4 they just wanted to dump in the drama. They were attempting to become a more mature show, but they really just became a super depressing soap opera for a little bit.
I'd disagree that Justin heals from his bashing quickly. We see evidence of him being off throughout the whole season, though his initial shock of being in public does go away after a couple of episodes. (But really, was Brian going to help him walk everywhere for a whole year?) But him leaving Brian for Ethan, I think, is huge evidence of him being rocked by the bashing. Season 1 Justin never would've done that. It's part of the reason their breakup is so heartbreaking. Yes, Ted and Emmett. I wish they ended up together, too. I still forget about Blake all the time... __________________

OMG... they were soooooo in love. I think perhaps Emmett was even more in love than Ted was. And he never stopped being in love with him...you even see it in the finale.
I will never stop shipping Temmett. __________________

Emmett's definitely the type not to fall in easily, but when he does, he falls hard... and he fell for his Teddy bear.
