lyssie: (Spooks are the angstiest spies ever)

spooks are eating my brains

*draws hearts all over Ros*

2. I have the discs now, but I'm not sure I want to watch season eight anymore.

3. Having delved into the fandom (a little, and wow has it been a LONG TIME since I've gone on a "yay, new fandom, *READS ALL THE THINGS*" binge--though I'm skipping anything recent, since, spoilers, as River would say), I'm perplexed at the idea that Jo was an incompetent waste of space? idek, I think I watched the wrong version of the show.

4. ROS KILLED A MAN WITH A FORK.

5. I have this temptation to write Joan (from Covert Affairs) as the new, interim, CIA liaison officer, with Ros as her contact. Not for any real purpose, but mostly so that I could have the satisfaction of knowing the world would quake if they teamed up. (Annie and Jo would make excellent bar hopping pals, and then Ben and Ben could just stand around looking confused while Jai mocked them) - temptation, but no plot.

6. Also, writing Ros makes my heart quell, since she's like the Laura Roslin of Spooks in that she's massively complex and getting her right is very hard (I haven't read a fic yet where I could say "yes, that's Ros")

7. re #5, if River Song were there, the universe would just put its hands up in defeat (Ros, Joan and River vs Daleks, then?)

ROS ROS ROS ROS!! She's totally one of my favorite female characters of all time! (And I didn't even really like her at first.)

I watched the series so fast I don't remember what my initial impressions of her were, but OMG ROS. <3 I love that there have been entire plot arcs all about her.

I know, right? It's like "Exterminate. Extermi--holy fuck. Let's get the hell out of here, dudes."
