I am the same. Writing becomes a chore and worse, by dwelling on an episode I didn't like, I become even more annoyed with it. Sometimes it's just better to push past it and not give it too much thought. LOL

Indeed. Of course there are times such as The Great Escapist for me when it is a great to write to just unburden your mind of the things troubling you. But then when the rant is over show leaves me so angry it's hard to get back into a good zone you know? Thus my failure to write after that episode. I'm sure it was the same with you and Taxi Driver. *hug*

I can't say how accurate the information in that discussion is, I didn't check out the source material, but it kinda fits with the Carver interviews I read back in early S8.

Ah that was interesting and I have heard similar things myself namely Jared's unhappiness about Sam's decision at the beginning of the season and Carver's statement we just have to accept it. Don't get me wrong in my comments I haven't been trying to absolve Carver of blame he is the show runner and at the end of the day it is his job to not let things get as bad as they are.

I'm just a bit wary of accrediting all of the faults of the season to Carver and giving Singer the credit for what works. As I said before if he truly had the power to put his foot down about the things going wrong, well I can't help but wonder why on earth didn't he do so sooner? And as we've discussed while I don't have the same love for S7 you do, I can certainly appreciate the fact Gamble had a clear vision that unfolded throughout. So when Singer said he prefers season eight to season seven... Well like I said I'm just a bit wary of absolving him of all blame when it comes to the faults of the season. Of course that is just me :) Maybe you're all right... I suppose we'll never truly know what went on backstage lol.
