Current Talk '08 I / Re: Lets talk about the dumbest things the writers ever did.
« on: March 27, 2008, 04:20:58 AM »I didn't really have a problem with Amanda as a character. I thought her storyline was particularly interesting, actually. But I DID have a problem with her sudden paring with Quentin after Beth's death. It was like Beth never lived, like she and Quentin never had a relationship, like she basically never existed in this time band whatsoever! One thing I didn't like about Beth was that she was constantly screaming "QUUUEEENNNTIINNNN!!!!!!!!" over and over and over, and constantly worried about him. Talk about a Stage 5 Clinger!
I think if the writers had've given Amanda and Quentin...*
Actually Q and Amanda were paired together while Beth was still alive. I think it was still a little early to expect Quentin to stop mistreating girlfriends, though. He's becoming a better person, but he's not really reformed yet. Most people stop learning lessons in their 20s.... he's come pretty far, considering...
I don't correct people normally-- sorry, but I hope you won't mind too much if I point out that the "had've" is unnecessary; it can just be "...if the writers had given..."
I plan to go several years without correcting anyone again.
