Robin Hood and Little John, Walkin' Through The Forest...


OH SHOW, YOU MAKE ME SO CONFLICTED. Because I love the crack (YOU KNOW I LOVE THE CRACK), and I love so much about what you choose to be, but then there's the thing where I CANNOT STAND THE EPONYMOUS 'HERO'. So there's that. OH WELL.

+ OF COURSE the first thing Robin says to Much is an insult. OF COURSE. Because why would the character development from the S2 finale be carried into S3? SILLY ME. Ugh, I am so done with Robin at this point. STUPID JONAS AND HIS STUPID FACE (DISCLAIMER: This will not be the most unbiased ep review you will read, mmmkay? I JUST, HE ANGERS ME FOR REASONS I DO NOT FULLY UNDERSTAND). TREAT MUCH RIGHT, BITCH. Ohh, Much. SAM TROUGHTON IS MY FAVOURITE. AND HIS EYES. EVEN WITH THE SILLY HAT. YAY SHIRTLESSNESS!

+ Love Much, love Allan (ALLAN!), love Little John, but OH BOY HOWDY do I miss The Gang. Will Scarlett, your plan-shaped crafty was sorely missed; they are shit at plans! DJAQ, WITHOUT YOU THERE WERE NO FIERCE LADIES THIS WEEK. And Marian, Marian! TRULY, THIS WEEK WAS SOMETHING OF A SAUSAGEFEST.

+ David Harewood was pretty righteous as Tuck; I liked him a lot. It was interesting to get an outsider's perspective on WE ARE ROBIN HOOD, and I thought his use-the-gang-as-bait plan was pretty good. Well, y'know, as far as plans on this show go. Also, he and Robin had a vair amusing Mufasa&Simba moment, which was vair amusing.

+ OH GIZZY ♥ THE HAIR OF GRIEF AND GUILT, I CANNOT EVEN. Poor Armitage kept having to flick it out of his face! OH OH OH. And he's fallen out with the sheriff! MAYHAP THIS SEASON WILL SEE HIM TURN TO THE GANG? Hmmmm. And I did enjoy Prince John's envoy!douche, in a comedy facial hair sort of way.

+ BECAUSE I CANNOT SAY IT OFTEN ENOUGH: ROBIN IS A MASSIVE DOUCHE AND I HATE HIM.

+ Next week: The appearance of FEISTY!Kate! And William Houston, which I know will be pleasing to not a few people on the flist (do we have any other guest stars confirmed?)! UNDOUBTEDLY, A HIGH LEVEL OF CRACK!

Oh show. So silly and stupid and ridiculous and yet I cannot NOT watch.

I approve of this William Houston guest role. Hai, Irish Question! And maybe one day, one day, John will not be the bad guy for actually doing the administrative stuff for England while Richard runs off on a vanity quest.

Haha, I haven't watched it yet but lol your review. The show is ridic and sometimes I get bored but I can't not watch it.
I can't wait to see Guy's hair! Oh, Armitage. I'm glad someone else is annoyed by Robin and his eleven year old boy hair.

WHAT WHAT WHAT HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT ABOUT MY JONAS?! D: I MEAN, HE GOT A HAIRCUT = BONUS POINTS. BUT REALLY, HE'S SAD ABOUT MARIAN, HE HAS A RIGHT TO BE CRANKY D: He still loves Much, you know he does ;)

Also, he and Robin had a vair amusing Mufasa&Simba moment
AHAHAHAHAHAHA I completely had the same reaction XDDDD

Poor Gizzy, I couldn't stop lol-ing at him throughout the entire thing. THE ANGST. THE UPSIDE-DOWN PSEUDO-HYPNOSIS (which, I might add, gave a lovely shot of arched neck-ness. Oh yes.)

BUT THIS IS CLEARLY THE BEST PART OF THE EPISODE:



WIN.

I really, really cannot wait to see Armitage try to act through his hair. That is the one thing 'm actually looking forward to.

...

Well, that and Allan.

TREAT MUCH RIGHT!


ROBIN SO IS A MASSIVE DOUCHE AND I ALSO HATE HIM!

I miss Will and his Dad's head made of sunlight and leaves.

Poor Toby.

Hee- you awake as well :D

Much loving xXx

ROBIN IS A MASSIVE DOUCHE AND I HATE HIM. The exact reason why I'm not that excited to watch the show.

[identity profile] randombastary.livejournal.com 2009-03-29 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
It r fact that Robin is a giant douche bag. I couldn't agree with you more about him not retaining anything from what he learned in series two ... I was actually thinking the same thing. And why must Much always forgive him? Why can't he get angry again? But that's part of the reason why I love Much: he's so loyal.

[identity profile] roh-wyn.livejournal.com 2009-03-29 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
So agree on everything. Sausagefest. Douche!Robin. All of it.

And oh god, I missed Will and Djaq so much it actually hurt. *sads*

[identity profile] jaune.livejournal.com 2009-03-29 05:03 am (UTC)(link)

THIS IS FOR YOU.

I was starting to hate Robin in this ep, but forgot about his whole ~Marian my dead wife~ thing. I forgive his doucheness.

SHOULD I WATCH IT? D:

I AM WORRIED IT WILL NOT BE THE SAME.

Sophieeee!!! I am happy that you are....giving Show a chance??!?! So many people seem not to be and it saddens me!! =( *glomp pounces*

I now count three people as having the Mufasa/Simba reaction!! Hehe, Disney FTW!!

I was lying in bed this morning trying to work out how long after last season this episode was set. I was thinking it couldn't be very long after...at all... and then I realised HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE FOR GUY TO GROW HIS HAIR THAT LONG?? So idk. Show is, as ever, indecipherable in so many ways.

What are your feelings on the arrival of Kate? Intrigued? Optimistic? Hostile? I don't think the poor dear is going to be welcomed into fandom with open arms...

THE HAIR OF GRIEF AND GUILT, I CANNOT EVEN.

I think you're right, I don't think he's washed it since the Holy Land...so months then? I like his crazy angsty wallowing though.

I agree with you too because I love everyone but Robin, who needs to buy himself some big girl pants, and not get to have any fun with the rest of the gang until he learns to share his toys, and not be a massive douche....

DO YOU KNOW, I AM GOING TO WATCH THIS

I BLAME RICHARD ARMITAGE

THANK, BBC IPLAYER.

- OH SOPHIE, I MISS CRAFTY WILL AND FIERCE DJAQ, TOO. Hopefully this Kate lady will provide some balance. Unless, of course, she is LAME. I really hope she isn't, they could do so much with a new female character. (I, FOR ONE, HOPE SHE FALLS IN LOVE WITH ALLAN).

- It's really weird, I've always used the word 'douche' to refer to Robin (YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN YOUR HOSTILITY), but I thought that was just my random choice of word. But, I've read about a million reviews, and they all select that particular adjective to describe him. He must just me intrinsically, unstoppably douchey.

- DID I MENTION IS MISS WILL?

[identity profile] acciobatman.livejournal.com 2009-03-29 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I miss the Will and Djaq so much it burns. BUT NOT AS MUCH AS THE LOATHING (I SHARE WITH YOU) FOR JONAS ARMSTRONG/ROBIN/ALL INCARNATIONS BEARING THAT ANNOYING SCRUNCHED UP RIGHTEOUS FACE.

Guy though...Guy. I can't fancy him in this series which I never thought I'd say. MOSTLY THOUGH...

I LOVE ALLAN.

Man, I wanted to punch Robin. But sometimes I like him, SO IDK.

WHAT SURPRISED ME WAS THAT GUY SEEMS TO BE PULLING OFF THE HAIR. So far. When it's not eating his face. It looked worse in the pictures xD

[identity profile] lalumena.livejournal.com 2009-03-31 08:07 am (UTC)(link)
VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. What song is I love so much about what you choose to be from? I feel sure it is from some song, but have no idea which one...

Robin bullying Much just makes me love Much all the more, and Robin all the less. I CANNAE UNDERSTAND JONAS FANGIRLS. Well, I can on some levels? And I can understand why Robin acts the way he does? But personally, I do not share their predilection. Really truly. As far as their dynamic goes though, I guess you could say that all the forgiving and explaining in the world might be somewhat undone by a long and cramped sea-voyage which possibly involved more cheering singing than Robin could cope with. ;)

+ OH GIZZY ♥ THE HAIR OF GRIEF AND GUILT, I CANNOT EVEN. Poor Armitage kept having to flick it out of his face! OH OH OH. And he's fallen out with the sheriff! MAYHAP THIS SEASON WILL SEE HIM TURN TO THE GANG?
EVERYTHING HERE I AGREE WITH. And am hoping the same thing. (Except also for a makeover. Get him back to pre-grief presentation. His sister might kick some sense into him. (Possibly literally?) :)

WILLIAM HOUSTON BEING IRISH. KATE THE FEISTY. HUZZAH HUZZAH SHOW, I AM GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK.
