Call of the Wild
Continuing somewhat from yesterday's Due South post, ( more rambling )

There are Red Ships and Green Ships but There's No Ships Like Partnerships
Finished Due South.
There's a part of me that almost can't believe they ended it the way they did. And I mean that in a good way. In an excellent way. Because I loved it, the whole series and the ending and all of it. Except for maybe what happened with Turnbull, though that probably turned out okay. And the Frannie thing was...odd. Which is saying something for a show like DS.
( Call of the Wild, Pts. 1 & 2 )
I feel like there's more I want to say and that what I've already said could be more clear, but my fingers are now freezing and I have to get ready to go to town.

I finally made it to season three of Due South.
omg, Kowalski.
( I have been waiting and waiting for this Ray to show up. )
And now subtext has basically disappeared out the window.
I just have scary visions of Monty Python and the Holy Grill now.
This show fills me with glee.

RAY: Can I ask you something? Do you find me attractive?
JIMMY: Well, I wouldn't say "attractive."
BRONCO: No. "Cute," maybe.
GLADYS: Well, I'd say "well-favored."
RAY: Did I ask you?
JIMMY: Sorry. I thought you were asking all of us.
RAY: Well, I wasn't. So zip. [to Fraser] Well? Find me attractive?
FRASER: In what sense?
RAY: In the sense of, you know, being a woman?
FRASER: Do I think you're an attractive woman?
RAY: No. No. I'm not the woman. You're the woman.
FRASER: I'm the woman.
GLADYS: No, I'm a woman.
RAY: Butt out.
BRONCO: Well, she is.
RAY: Well, I know she's a woman. I'm asking Fraser to pretend he's a woman. Okay?
GLADYS: Oh. Can you do that, dear?
FRASER: Well, I have done that, yes.
JIMMY: So have I. It was rather fun.
[Bronco sniggers]
RAY: Look, you three zip. And you--you pretend you're a woman, okay?...D'you find me attractive?
FRASER: Very much so, yes.
RAY: You're not just saying that?
FRASER: Well, I'm not really qualified to judge, Ray.
[Ray starts laughing]
GLADYS: What's funny about that? He isn't.
RAY: It just sounds like something my wife would say.
RAY: I'm like one of those, um, whatchamacallem, knights looking for the Holy Grill.
FRASER: Grail.
RAY: What?
FRASER: Holy Grail.
RAY: You sure?
FRASER: I'm pretty sure it's not a diner.
RAY: Grill, Grail, whatever. I'm just trying to settle an old debt.
I just have scary visions of Monty Python and the Holy Grill now.

Confession, Mythology, and Loneliness
Mainlining Due South, or any show, really allows me to geek out over it.
I love when television is done right and well. When there are levels. Or, rather, when there's enough going on that the viewer can find levels on their own. Authorial intention versus reader/viewer interpretation, right?
( So excuse me while I geek out a little. )
I can't believe it's after one in the morning and I'm actually connecting Foucault with Due South. What is my problem?
