Beer:

so, how’s the world of sausages?
Sausages:

all in all a good start to the week then
Beer:
yeah, not bad
i can’t believe it’s motherfucking 1030 already
jesus shit
Sausages:
i know. so much to do still. dang it
oh i’ve been trying the shield
3.5 episodes in. its really shit
dont think i can commit
Beer:
oh. we cannot be friends
that’s it. we absolutely cannot
Sausages:
acting shoddy, sets even worse
but.. i love you
i do like the bad cop premise
Beer:
are you watching the right show?
Sausages:
the sield?
Beer:
i don’t recognise the shoddy acting
Sausages:
um, unless you gave me the wrong disc
haha
maybe it gets better?
Beer:
did you start with episode 1?
what happened at the end of episode 1
Sausages:
um, he killed a cop
said it was the drug dealer dude
Beer:
and that didn’t make you go “oh my fucking god, what is this show?”
Sausages:
it made my go OMG i will ahve to watch episode 2
Beer:
were you doing anything else while watching it?
i’m worried
Sausages:
why?
Beer:
i don’t know how you can’t like it
i think you need to watch all of the first 3 seasons
Sausages:
you know how just either like a series or don’t
Beer:
and then get back to me
Sausages:
i wil plod through the 1st and see how i feel
Beer:
i refuse to accept it
it’s my favourite cop show ever
EVER
Sausages:
really?
Beer:
really
Sausages:
ohdear
Beer:
it’s fucking genius
Sausages:
why?
i dont see it yet
the actors are b grade
really bad
but i’m open minded
Beer:
ok, here’s the thing. the acting is amazing. it’s some of the most realistic i’ve seen
Sausages:
i will try harder
haha. i’m going to shoot yo in the face
Beer:
it’s not bullshit CSI melodrama
Beer:
it’s people not knowing what to say. not knowing how to handle a situation
Sausages:
this bullshit episode with holding a basketball player hostage in a room??
bollocks
Beer:
it’s about people always being in over their head and trying desperately to tread water
but before you get to that you have a tv series where everything is important. there are no inconsistencies in plot. everything is used. everything is revisited. attention must be paid because a throwaway comment in one scene is going to get you killed in another
there are themes about self-denial, self-hatred, self-harm
these are things we haven’t seen in any other series
Sausages:
the plot is not believable
this is mostly the trouble i have
but maybe it gets better
Beer:
i think maybe it’s not the plot that’s not believable but you haven’t yet fallen completely into the world
it’s not our world
and it’s not the world of any other cop show we’ve ever seen
Sausages:
its not?
what is our world? melbourne?
Beer:
if it was science fiction you’d fall right into it
our world is not the most violent part of a horribly violent LA
it’s not the gang-bangers and the downtrodden
it’s not the world of kill or be killed, of do anything to survive
if it was set in the vietnam war you wouldn’t have any problem with believing what they do
Sausages:
i’m just not getting it
thats all
Beer:
pretend it’s the vietnam war
Sausages:
i’ve watched cop shows, but if the acting is crappy and the relationships between characters is not believalbe
i have a problem
Beer:
oh, you have a problem, alright
your problem is that we cannot be friends anymore
that’s your problem
Sausages:
i dont remember falling apart when you called ND shit
so keep it together sister!
Beer:
dude, that’s just a movie
Sausages:
grr..
Beer:
i’m serious about the shield
Sausages:
i expect more from yo
aim higher
Beer:
i just can’t see how the acting is in any way bad
which characters are bad actors?
i’m really traumatised by this
i don’t think i can go to sleep
Sausages:
might i reccomend masturbation
female cop is truly bad
Beer:
you’d like that, wouldn’t you?
Sausages:
yes i would
Beer:
if i came over and masturbated you
Sausages:
can’t see the main baldy is any good either
Beer:
oh, for fuck’s sake
i think you need to speak to [name withheld]
Sausages:
theres too much melodrama between him and his boss
and the idiot named dutch is a terrible actor
Beer:
because i can’t stay calm about this anymore
Sausages:
no thanks.
she’ll cut me a new asshole
Beer:
oh dutch is fantastic
dutch is everything i was talking about
Sausages:
dutch is a twat
Beer:
these are not confident people
everybody on television is always so confident
Sausages:
clearly. these are not confident actors either
Sausages:
haha
Beer:
these are incredibly flawed characters who are trying to get through facing the worst shit in the world every day.
maybe you just want to watch mad men
la di da
maybe you’re just not cut out for the strike team
but you’ll be missing out
Sausages:
maybe. i will try a cpl more episodes. first drunk then stoned.
i’m not giving up, just losing faith
Beer:
no. you need to watch it straight
and alone
Sausages:
alone? as if there is s achoice
Beer:
don’t lose faith
it’s all there
Sausages:
staring me in the face?
Beer:
yup
you’ll get it
Sausages:
a dude with sperm in the fridge?
ok.
Beer:
you just need to immerse yourself in it
and thus we have a new blog post.
