They're so sick for this
& was gonna originally leave it in the tags but then I liked it so why not:
I do think this parallel helps contextualize why Claudia's offer is there in the narrative beyond just characterization "she knows this is a loss the boys have experienced, and there is possible room to convince them," or beyond "I doubt they're going to bring Harrow back fully (if at all) so why tease it" and well: I think this parallel is exactly why.
For starters, there's the sheer difference in presentation that help to contrast and compare Callum and Claudia as characters. More importantly for next season, I think, is that it ties together Claudia wanting to save her father is what led to her working with Aaravos in the first place versus Callum wanting to free Rayla's parents likely being something that is just going to put him further on Aaravos' dark path of destiny for him, if not outright lead to disaster. The road to ruin is paved with good intentions, after all - even if he's being selfless about it because it's not even for himself or one of his direct loved ones, but purely by proxy

listen. 6 years is plenty of time for characters to change and grow in different directions, of course bellamy (and co) and clarke are gonna be out of sync. of course they're going to have to get reacquainted with one another before they fall into step again, and we should maybe even expect a little conflict. it makes sense.
and in a broader sense it makes sense for the different groups to bond like they did when there's no one else around. spacekru is going to look out for each other and do their best planning when they're together because they spent 6 years pretty much inseparably. clarke is going to prioritize this kid because that's what she's been doing for half this girl's life. 6 years is long enough for loyalties to change, and that's what's interesting to me about season 5 all these years later: who are you loyal to and what has to happen for your loyalties to change?
talk of traitors and loyalties is all over the place this season. you can even see this amongst the mining group, divided between diyoza's and mccreary's followers. the 100 has always been about "protecting my people" and what leadership means, but season 5 feels more about what happens when we get subgroups and shifting allegiances. and it's an interesting conversation to have! it makes sense!
but what doesn't make sense is this show's lack of understanding of how.... long? it takes for a Culture to develop? 6 years isn't long enough for wonkru to be like... That. a century isn't long enough for the grounders to be like That either. i get that it was ~a dark time~ but i don't think people would lose their agency and follow this teenager so blindly and stupidly after just a couple years. so while the question of loyalty is an interesting one, i think they really fumbled with it and sort of lost their train of thought because it really ended up going nowhere.

Yesterday, I had a Friends marathon and finished the show for the nth time. And as usual, tears were shed (Chandler convincing Erica to let them adopt her child, Phoebe's wedding, and a lot of scenes from the last episodes).
Today, I continued my rewatch of Criminal Minds, and it was time for the 100th episode again. And that episode broke me (read: ugly crying at its finest), just like last time. Also, this episode has such an impact on me. It's so sad what happens, and I know that I'll be thinking about it from time to time the next days.
All in all, I'm all cried out for this weekend.

What are your top 5 cold opens??
Do you mean Rookie cold opens, or just for any show ever? Because this is probably my favorite cold open of all time:
youtube
Just kidding, obviously you mean The Rookie.
You know, for as many times as I’ve watched this show, you'd think this would be easy. Instead, my brain immediately blanked on most of the cold opens and I just spent 2 hours looking through all the episode transcripts and then rewatching a bunch of them and struggling to narrow it down.
(I couldn't find gifs for most of these so I decided to just use images; image sources are linked)
Top 5
2x06 Fallout I’m such a sucker for simple comedy, and this one is that for sure. Nolan’s steadily growing horror combined with the guy’s cheeky smile when Nolan realizes he has a dick piercing? Perfection. It cracks me up so much!
Tumblr media
4x17 Coding Don’t get me wrong, I love a good short, comedic cold open. But this one… holy cow. It punches me in the heart every single time. It’s so intense and so sad, and just a really moving scene. I’m listing these chronologically, but if I was going in order, this one would probably be at the top.
Tumblr media
5x09 Take Back Grey is such an underrated character, and I always love when he gets his own storyline. He’s typically so stoic and professional, so to see him completely out of his element is just endlessly hilarious to me.
Tumblr media
5x13 Daddy Cop This is another one that just makes me laugh every time. It’s such an annoyingly catchy and hilarious song. And Celina singing along at the end is really just the icing on the cake.
Tumblr media
5x16 Exposed I mean… isn't it obvious? We start off with Chenford in bed together, with Tim curled towards her and his head basically laying on her pillow. Which is just adorable. And then we immediately transition to Lucy being just an absolute badass. This cold open encapsulates the softness of their relationship, Lucy’s UC skills, and Tim’s unwavering support for her so well.
Tumblr media
Honorable Mentions
Because there are so many other good ones!
1x13 Caught Stealing This one makes the list because it's the first time we ever really see Tim mess with Lucy. Like... the fact that he could get mad at her, but instead he takes a picture of her and makes t-shirts? I love it!
Tumblr media
1x19 The Checklist Again, simple yet funny. And Talia’s reaction to meeting Will.I.Am is probably the funniest moment we ever saw from her.
Tumblr media
2x14 Casualties This one just cracks me up. That’s really all I can say.
Tumblr media
4x02 Five Minutes The only reason this one didn’t make the top five is because the boot prank is just one tiny piece of the entire cold open. Which is also a good scene… just not quite top 5.
Tumblr media
4x22 Day in the Hole It was hard for me to push this one out of the top five because this scene has so much. Chenford bickering like an old married couple. Tamara’s awful driving. She and Tim joking with each other. The fact that he gave her the name of his mechanic. And, of course, let’s not forget the fact that this scene sets up the entire Dim/Juicy storyline.
Tumblr media
5x10 The List I mean. Do I even need to explain this one? If it was just the deciding what to wear scene, 100% this would be top five. But I get a lot of secondhand embarrassment from awkward scenes, and that date has some great moments but overall it’s just so awkward.

Do you think chenford will find a way back eventually? ❤️❤️
yes, 100% ♡
for more than a few reasons i think that they will but i'll just focus on one in particular rn: parallels!
i don't i've ever seen a show be so intentional about parallels and call backs to different moments as the rookie is? they definitely know what they're doing and how they're teasing us 😂 
i think that there are different moments we've seen with chenford that we'll see again as parallels of things coming full circle:
5x08 & 6x02 - the first time tim asks her to dinner and the infliction in her voice when she says "yes" AND tim down on one knee when he gives her bailey's ring after the fight with the hammer (tim proposing to lucy)
5x09 - when he asks her out again in grey's office and she says "yeah, i do" (the "i do's" at their wedding)
5x17 - "you're gonna make a really great dad one of these days" (lucy telling tim she's pregnant)
while i'll die on the hill of 5x08 being a proposal parallel and 5x09 being a wedding one (tho i might just be delulu), the one that alexi himself all but confirmed is 6x02 because of how he mentioned it was a "blink and you'll miss it moment". it was intentionally added into the scene, there was not really a need for it unless ... 👀
(holler at me if you want to hear the rest of the reason why i think they'll find their way back, happy to share those too lol)

Established Practice
Tumblr media
I read a post about 'fictional characters are objects and can't be harmed' and 'you can't disrespect a fictional character.' Both of these takes are 100 percent correct. But that's never been the point I'm trying to make. Let me try to make it again and walk my readers through the steps.
I encountered a post which sneered at Scott McCall for so "easily throwing [Stiles] under the bus." Several people responded to this post, and the OP, to their credit, apologized and explained that this comment refers to Lies of Omission (5x09) and the infamous fight in the rain. They explained that it had been a few years since they had seen earlier seasons. I'm not mad at them, but it doesn't help their argument.
First, "easily." They rendered this judgement on Scott on the scene, and it has been echoed thousands of times by the fandom over the last eight years. At the time, this is what had happened to him during the season.
his girlfriend had been accused of murder and had had to leave to seek help for a serious supernatural crisis
his mentor and adult advisor had vanished while on a mission to help him and he was worried about him
his pack had been deceiving him and ignoring him
lots of teenagers were dying and he had been told it was his responsibility
he was experiencing a resurgence in his serious asthma condition which hampered his ability to fight the villains
he had promised his beta Liam to do everything to protect Hayden, who during the scene was dying 100 feet behind him
No one needed to have watched Seasons 1 through 4 to know this during the fight in the rain, because all of it was mentioned in the opening monologue of that very same episode. I'm pretty sure that this was on purpose to remind the audience of the incredible pressure Scott was under.
Second, "throwing [Stiles] under the bus." Is that what happened? I think, objectively, the only conclusions that Scott drew in that scene were that he didn't believe Stiles, he needed some space from Stiles, and he suggested -- after Stiles asked him what to do -- that he go talk to his dad. Scott didn't end their friendship, he didn't call Stiles names, he didn't even mention the fact that Stiles had concealed important information and lied to him more than once.
And yet I argue that over the last eight years the fandom has deliberately and purposefully ignored that entire context of that scene and its consequences. To reiterate the above point, you can't hurt or disrespect a fictional character, but I sincerely believe that fandom warps this scene (among others) for the purpose of their own enjoyment. They gain pleasure by turning a character of color from hero to villain, by eliminating all empathy for the character of color, and by positioning a white male character as the target of the character of color's unearned oppression.
I believe I can say this because it is part of a historical and cultural pattern where characters of color and their stories have consistently been mutilated by majority white audiences for their own entertainment.
I work in academia in the preservation of intellectual history; I encounter this particular phenomenon regularly. On my desk is a photograph from 1952 where a fraternity is participating in a campus-wide event where different organizations participate in theatrical skits. They're in blackface, presenting a picture of the Antebellum South as a social paradise. As part of my work, I examined the context. This wasn't happening in some rural backwater. This was on a university campus with black students. No one -- not students, not faculty, not administration -- said anything about this behavior, because it was "all in good fun." I guess they just wanted to let people enjoy things.
That's one example, but there are thousands and thousands more, and this behavior has had definite effects on media creation. Even as an ignorant white teenager in the 1980s, I noticed that characters of color in violent action-adventure stories were extremely likely to die, no matter what the outcome of the story , either to establish vicarious justice or to raise the stakes. That was their only purpose. It's getting better, I think we have to say that. Two decades before the scene Lies of Omission, the idea of a Latino actor like Tyler Posey playing a lead protagonist like Scott McCall would have been almost unthinkable. The best he could have hoped for would be to have played Jackson or Isaac. If by some chance he had been able to play Stiles the sidekick, he would almost certainly have been dead by the end of Season 2 in order to 'raise the stakes' for whichever white actor got to be Scott McCall. If by some miracle, Mr. Posey still got to play Scott in the nineties, the show would never have made three seasons, let alone six.
Fandom's reaction to the scene in Lies of Omission isn't an outlier. It's not an anomaly. It's part of a history of characters of color being seen as valid by audiences when used as object in support of white characters and only in support of white characters. Fandom could care less about the full dynamic of that scene or how the entire situation was a tragedy enabled by both Scott and Stiles (and Theo). There's no respect for the story that the production was trying to tell, but that's nothing new. The minimization of empathy and interest in characters of color has been going on for a very long time; the characters may not hurt by it, but we are.
