elapsesLast year I did a picspam of Friday Night Lights season three both in preparation for season four and to entice everyone who had stopped watching to catch back up. I have since given up on that quest, if you stopped watching you stopped watching and there is nothing I can do about that except say that I am really sorry about your life, because I am. But I actually loved making that, which is weird because usually the idea of picspams without words is abhorrent to me. Finding caps for an entire season at once gives me a chance to revisit the season without fully commiting to a rewatch, I guess? So I have it all in mind once again once I watch the new stuff. Anyway a couple of months ago I decided I'd do another one for season 4, but... ended up putting it off. Naturally. Let's pretend it is still a couple of hours ago though and this is just under the wire than just a little bit too late to beat season 5 (whatever, most of us won't watch it until tomorrow anyway). Anyway this is (obviously) really image heavy, steer cleer if your modem is lily-livered.
I weirdly love the graininess of this show, I don't know. Also newfound respect for those of you who throw out picspams with any kind of regularly, I always forget how effing tedious it is.
I lied though, two things:
- I was so ambivalent on both Jess/Landry and Jess/Vince for most of the season -- but oh my goooooood, did something ever happen in those last three episodes, SUDDENLY I HAD REALLY INTENSE JESS/VINCE FEELINGS. I don't know that I can explain it because I still don't know what happened there, but those scenes surrounding his friend's funeral -- jeeeeesus christ did that ever make Jess/Landry look shallow in comparison. I love that that was acknowledged and she went straight to Landry and broke up with him though: JESS IS SUCH A STRAIGHT-TALKER, god damn she's great.
- It's so much less stressful to watch Tim/Becky scenes when you know that he is going to knock her down every time, oh my god I LOVE THAT HE INHERITS A BABY SISTER FOR HIMSELF. And of course she's in love with him, she's 16 (or whatever, you know handwavey FNL ages) and he's Tim Riggins, but I love that he has the maturity to say no over and over again. Because he totally loves her, but in this entirely unromantic way. IT IS THE MOST DELIGHTFUL THING.
