The Guardian
Feb. 21st, 2012 01:15 pmI have continued to watch The Guardian and my god, this show. Why does it not have a fandom? Nick, the main character, is the biggest woobie ever. He's like Logan from Veronica Mars without the problematic spontaneous bouts of violence. And fandom loves Logan.
Basically, Nick is an emotional child who doesn't know how to handle adversity at all and always ends up turning his rage and frustration inward onto himself. And he's surrounded by a cast of extremely selfish people who keep dumping their problems on him until he explodes, which they are then shocked (shocked!) by.
Because![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jethrien found it amusing and I doubt any of you are going to watch The Guardian if you haven't already, here's a run down of the first season:
( In which a succesful show on CBS has a plot not distinguishable from a 13-year-old's epic saga on fanfiction.net )
So, I ask you--is that fundamentally different from a fanfiction.net story? Well, it's different in one key way--it stars a hot guy, so it's a lot easier to look at.
