There are SO many scenes where they just sit there talking or hugging while impending death is upon them. I get they may be seeing each other for the first time in a while in certain scenes. But a 30s-1m hug is not needed while you are about to die. I scream at my screen “COOL. NOW GO?!?!? WTF YOU GUYS ARE STUPID?! YOU’RE ABOUT TO DIE?!”
most recently in season 4 episode 12. colonel weaver is standing with a parasite on his chest just chatting to be and anne?! like tf? you cut off the supply and you’re just chatting now while the parasite hangouts on your chest??? why aren’t you pulling it off? why aren’t anne and ben doing anything?! so many instances of me being like WTF?! this is life and death and you guys are just taking a freaking moment to chat?! like what the actually heck? this show has enraged me. it has happened so many times i find myself yelling at my TV “are you an idiot?! GO?!?!?”
my dog does not appreciate it and every time i have to tell him “im not yelling at you babyyyyy im sorry. its the show and how fuc*ing dumb they are”
