LOL, Krusty, LOL

Funny how Krusty is allowed to derail the 'Didn't Love It' thread for Stranger, disagree with lots of people with her 'I know best, I know what the NSGA (nonshippinggeneralaudience)want' anti-skate bullshit... and it's not until some posters start calling her out on her whacked out and unsupported assumptions that the mods swoop in to put the kibosh on it?

Apparently, according to the all-seeing, all-knowing Krystal (aka Krusty the Klown), Sawyer and Kate's getting together ruined the show and drove the General Audience away. Apparently the non-shipping general audience hates Skate and wants Jate. Wrap your head around that illogical statement. *snicker* But Krusty knows best. Let misology reign supreme!!

Krusty:
Sort of. The other half consisted mainly of Sawyer and Kate in their cages "growing closer" as you might say. I would much rather have seen Jack on the screen the whole time instead of the scenes we had to endure such as the "you taste like strawberries," "you taste like fish biscuits" "if you love me you'll run" and Kate confessing her love to Sawyer while he is being beaten endlessly by Pickett. What was the whole point of that anyway? There was none. And then we were subjected to the whole retraction of the I love you, to Kate mentioning "turn around" while she undresses in her cage, only to initiate sex with him the following day. Her actions have left many of the audience confused as to what exactly the writers and the producers are doing.

Now I wonder why Krusty is irritated here? Sawyer & Kate taking too much screen time away from her hero perhaps? Sounds remarkably like each & every SKate scene had Krusty flaking away to a crumble here. Someone please, help her out – tell her to record and fast forward to Jack, JACK, JACK only scenes. Her bubble friends should have suggested that one to her.

kate and sawyer were merely there because Jack had led them there with his "plan" and the others wanted them to make jack do the surgery.


Krusty:
The others wanted Sawyer and Kate for an entirely different reason than they wanted Jack. If Jack hadn't of led them there, the others would eventually have come after them anyhow.

That’s right – we forgot, because Jack can do NO wrong, how many times does Krusty have to tell us this? Can’t we get anything through our "online" Skating heads? *rolls eyes* Sawyer and Kate were wanted for an entirely different reason alright – to make sweet SWEET LOVE to keep the rest of the viewing public entertained after so much Jack, JACK, JACK. *snerk*


Quote:
The whole plot revolved around Jack, as it genrally does.


Krusty:
That should make sense, considering Jack is their star.

And don’t you forget it… AGAIN! This show is ALL about Jack, only JACK. A reason for declining ratings perhaps?


Quote:
I have never seen MF in anything other than lost, so I can't comment on his acting abilities outside of the show, so I am going to assume it is the poor writing that has made his character the "hero" who likes to shout alot, cry, and stalk women.


Krusty:
Many people were complaining that they didn't want Jack to be your typical card board cutout "hero." Now that they have given him a dark side, people are still complaining. So which does the audience prefer? They can't have both. Some people have made up their minds that they are not going to like Jack no matter how they write him, which is fine, but it's their loss if they choose to miss out on what this character offers to the show.

I finally agree with Krusty on something – some people will NEVER like Jack, the perfect hero or the yelling, crying, abusive hero – is too late, his character has already been established TOO perfectly for some of us /sarcasm. Also, it's the fact that Jack is portrayed with flaws which never get acknowledged by the other characters on the show. As far as they are concerned he's still the great white frakking hope, everyone owes him even when he screws up, he's always going to be the sacrificial hero who will save the day. When are the writers going to address his flaws and have people call him out on it? When will his mistakes actually have consequences? When will other people's sacrifices and acts of bravery get gratitude or acknowledgement, huh? And I'm not just talking about Sawyer. Kate, Juliet, Alex...all had a hand in the great escape.


Quote:
This flashback was completely unnecessary,


Krusty:
I completely agree.

Wonder of wonders, Krusty actually agrees with a Skater. *eyes popping* This one is for the record books.

Quote:
it revelaed nothing new about Jack's character that we didn't already know in abundance,


Krusty:
Well, it did offer up some new information on him, but unfortunately, the execution on how this information was revealed was poorly done.

The meaning of tattoos to enlighten Krusty to her hero’s perfect status? Perhaps she missed out on that attempt to portray him in that way previously?

Quote:
but I don;t think it's fair to blame kate and sawyer getting together for being the reason the show is being dragged down as you put it, just like it wouldn't be fair for me to say, the complete focus on Jack's character constantly is the sole reason.


Krusty:
I think the statement that I made about them was quite fair. They got together in "I Do" and the ratings took a huge hit when it came back. In my opinion, it's the quality of the show that has steered people away and in this sense, Sawyer and Kate didn't help matters. TPTB made their romance story way too central and it turned a lot of people off.

Krusty is so in touch with what the “general audience” thinks. Where DOES she get her information from? A few friends? A few colleagues/customers? Perhaps these people need to complete a survey in order to interact with this KLOWN?

Quote:
I don;t really think that's a fair point, the massive fanbase these two have would say differently.


Krusty:
The internet is deceiving.

Yes it is, and incomprehensible to one such as yourself, Krusty. Sawyer and Kate are entirely to blame for the ratings drop off… if Krusty was correct and since Sawyer & Kate are doing their angsty act right now, the ratings would be on the rise now then wouldn’t they?? Perhaps someone needs to tell TPTB to try another SKating bunnyhop to boost their figures again? The TIVO most watched figures and media shit gets quoted but according to Krusty it don't count. Hell, fire the ratings people and hire her. She KNOWS, dammit.



Hurry! Lost is over...Let's all go tell Krystal what we thought. Jaaaack! Jaaaaack! JAAAAAACK!!
