yeah I can't seem to stay away from this post. this thing with Alisha has been bothering me for a while. uh and then this gorilla thing with Kelly. the implications of the explicit sex scenes with her and Bruno combined with the show purposefully finding an actor who resembled a gorilla is too much. and I'm ready to believe it since this is the show where they had Alisha say "well, it's not MY fault they can't keep it in their pants!" when in this case, it was, mocking the argument of rapists' personal responsibility when they rape. nice one.
I still don't get the purpose of the scene in the first season where the police officer crowds Alisha against the desk and tries to rape her. there's some interaction betw her and Sally afterwards but it's not like Alisha & Sally's scene was important and couldn't have been conveyed some other way.
the way they did Nikki & Ollie's power is a bit funny too. ppl are saying Nikki is better at it since she gets to go farther with it, but the way they choose to portray her teleporting, flying through the air as if pulled by something else not of her own volition, and falling somewhere instead of landing on her feet makes it look a lot more like a passive power than when Ollie had it. (tho granted, the show may potentially show Nikki actually getting better and in more control of it)
I was so taken with this show season 1, even with all its problems, but man, season 2 has been so disappointing.
