The One in Which Doc Rants ***SPOILERS***

[doc_3]

Okay.  If you haven't read the spoilers for the Season 4 finale stop HERE.

Seriously, you have been warned.

No really.  You've been warned. A LOT.  DO NOT CLICK.  DO NOT PASS GO. 



From what I've gathered, Booth and Brennan are having sex in the Season 4 finale.  Apparently they are having sex because Brennan wants Booth to father her child.  (I haven't actually read that verbatim anywhere, but I'm no dummy.  I can put two and two together like a champ.)  Booth apparently doesn't feel as clinical and detached about this as Brennan.  Hart Hansen thinks this is a good plot device.

THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!!! 

I feel better now that I've shout-typed that. 

I think this is a horrible idea.  To use the popular "jump the shark" metaphor:  they are strapping on the water-skis with the Fonz.   Goof!Booth is annoying, but Pregnant!Brennan may be the last straw.  I have stood by this show through a lot and it kills me to think I won't always love it.  I will watch every episode between now and the finale, and pass judgment then.  I just had to get this out.

I just have to say I'm right there with ya!
And I don't know about you guys, but David saying in that Q&A session that [and I massively paraphrase cause I'm too lazy to go find the real quote] "the fans would love it and for us to take a step away from our keyboards and go get some Nestle Quik..."
That does NOTHING to reassure me. Especially when Hanson and Nathanson come out with their little vague hints and... shit, I really am nauseous now. It's really interesting when the stress over a TV show starts to manifest itself physically in your person. Headaches yday, nausea today... *sigh*
Stepping away from the computer now... to where my RL is nothing resembling a soap opera.

You have no idea what a relief it is to know you guys are with me on this! I've been dying to post this for about two weeks, and even after a mini-rant via email to britt_1975 I still didn't feel better. After reading a quote from HH about the season finale, some of his comments made me realize that he has no clue how far this show has deviated from what drew fans initially. That's when I knew I had to post.

This totally sucks. At least we have each other :(
