Your honor, it's them

God like shut the fuck UP.

So Chris originally pitched vandertrees. They were supposed to be together in s2. They were supposed to take care of Bridget.

Chris says that didn't work out because Alan and Sara's 'chemistry is more mother-son' and I've never heard a more absolute bullshit excuse for 'I didn't develop my main character so when Alan played him as ND read I said oh he's a baby haha' and changed the shows trajectory after the first season. BTW that's from his own mouth, he didn't even know Harry until they got Alan literally when they were already filming the pilot and then he decided Harry was supposed to be an idiot child. Like yeah, that dynamic happened bc you FORCED the child/parent thing later, that never existed in s1. Their interactions after the whole dumber Harry thing are so stiff and miserable, it's not natural the way they were before.

They genuinely won the lottery with two super attractive, talented actors who had immediate chemistry and they shit all over it. And fine don't make it canon, why do they have to be so hostile and weird about it? You're not smarter than shippers, you make a show full of poop jokes.

I was making the decision that the Earth is more important than any one person. But what if that one person feels more important than anything? What if you love them so much, you will choose what is best for them over what is best for an entire planet? If I am a superhero, Asta is my kryptonite.

Losing it over the original comics, PLEASE DONT LET ME DOWN SYFY, GIMMIE THE HARRY AND ASTA CONTENT I CRAVE

I just wanted to add to this post

This was in the replies

I'm bit imagining that right? I'm not at home. But I heard her correctly right??

... is there a shipname?

#HarryAs is just too funny

#Astarry maybe??

so astas just naturally into aliens huh

Half the townspeople of Patience probably just assume that Harry and Asta are secretly hooking up at this point, right? Like, they’re always hanging out, eating literally every meal together, going on weekend trips to New York, constantly sneaking off into the woods, etc etc

They’re probably super paranoid that people will find out about all the alien business, but really everyone’s just like “yeah those two are obviously banging”

...Even Superman has Lois Lane. If you have the right person on your team, they do not hold you back, they lift you up.

If this was 2 years ago I'd be happy people are shipping Harry and Asta but I need yall to know, as someone who loved it, it's never ever happening in the show. You can still like it obvs Im not cop, but don't expect it.

Sara thinks it's cringe (they literally did a whole interview to squash it middle of s2), they've said more than enough times in interviews and literally in the show itself in case you somehow missed the whole storyline that she sees him as a child and she is 'parenting' him, at this point they aren't even friends he's just a burden she's stuck with. I just don't want yall to get hurt expecting that when they literally hate shippers with a passion and they're not nice about it.

so....... RA 301, "Lone Wolf"

high points:

• the two Greys (a middle manager and a trainee acc. to the end credits lmao) tackling human abduction logistics - "Well, you got the 'leave him inside the house' part right." LOL I'm currently in my UFO/UAP phase again, so this little moment (along w/ that hangar full of retrieved alien spacecrafts) was a treat. This whole abduction storyline continues to simultaneously creep me out and delight me to no end. It's an odd but good feeling, and I'm excited to see how it plays out. FINALLY they made me interested in Ben & Kate again -- already one major improvement over last season.

• Alan Tudyk. In a suit. Thank you.

• the interactions btw Sheriff Mike & Deputy Liv retain their golden status. I just love them.

Mike: Look, there goes a damn government drone watching us right now. Liv: I think that's just some mustard on the window. Mike: That's what they want you to think. You gotta trust no one, Deputy. Head on a swivel. You ain't never really safe until you learn to look behind yourself. Go ahead, watch your back. Go ahead. Do it.

• Kevin and her lil' kitty towel awww

• "I had to stop because of you. I will always have to stop because of you." !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is the stuff I'm here for. It reminded me of Hannibal: Tell me, Clarice. Would you ever say to me, "Stop? If you love me, you'd stop"?

The feelings, guys... the feelings I have are MANY and STRONG

but:

In general, Harry's characterization continues to frustrate me. We get a reminder how "going it alone" is hard-wired into his DNA. Even the two Greys are a brief counterpoint to this, presented as a team, supporting each other. But Harry still has to keep re-learning -- or more like re-realizing -- the basic tenet that confiding in Asta is the way to go, and we're already in S3. It just feels needlessly repetitive at this point. And hand-waving his behavior w/ "oh he just has the amorality of a child" is so... thin, such a basic cop-out. I know that emotional maturation is built on a long series of missteps, many repeated ones, but please let some stuff stick already so it can be built upon and keep things fresh. We have seen just how much development Harry's capable of in the character of Goliath. He is the best (a future) version of Harry and I'd really like to see him start moving in that direction now instead of coloring over the same lines ad nauseam.

That being said, the glorious clusterfck that is his relationship with Asta remains to be so fascinating. His alien core keeps crashing against his feelings for her and amidst all my frustration these moments somehow keep hitting the right sweeeet twisted spot for me????? I mean, apparently, he violated the Galactic Federation Charter 3 times already - for her. He def betrayed his own species - for her. First he was willing to save Earth - for her, now he would let the whole planet burn - for her. He then contemplates killing her to stop the fracture of his very being only to screech to a halt by her bed -- all of which is just...... WOW. He is so torn and confused yet so viscerally attached to her. He first calls her his kryptonite, then his Lois Lane. His core instinct is to protect her now and then try to fumble his way back to his mission, which is a complete 180 to how he behaved originally. So we def have development, I just wish they stopped trying to drown this precious nuance in a caricature. We have gold here, writers, let it shine.

Why would you ever kiss me….I’m not even half as pretty, you gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester but you like her better….I wish I were….

ASTA DOODLE FOR TONIGHT BECAUSE IM IN MY FEELINGS

Bring on Resident Alien season FINALE!!! Here’s some art of season 2.5.

I haven’t shared my thoughts on the last couple episodes, mostly because I kept forgetting to do so, but I LOVED the last episode!! It was so good lol

And I’m sad because I’ll have to wait for ages for my favourite show to return.. at least it IS returning with season 3!!! :D

Compliation of Resident Alien memes i’ve created. 

Bonus Alan Tudyk tiddy meme, the Patience Discord Server in a Nutshell, and our thoughts on Chris.
