This is how I feel. Season 1 and that Vincent are gone. They were beautiful but all the wringing of hands ain't bringing them back. We have to build a bridge and get over it . Embrace the new and hopefully we will be rewarded. Oh and I was a Buffy Angel shipper all the way I think it is not so simple to just say "get over it"........not when you let your heart open to all the emotion and joy. Anyone who has ever been in love....and had a break up......it just is not so simple. Would you say to your friend going through heartbreak........."get over it"......."move on, it's over"?? I think it is a bit insensitive to say that. It takes time, and you go through stages. That is the reality in regards to this story. Truth is many of us love a good romance/love story. To see so much pain and heartache is tough to witness week in and week out. I don't invest my time in things I don't believe in or care about....... Yes, this is a TV show.......it is a story I immersed myself into. I don't want to see these two people treat each other so miserably. And as I have said before, I just DO NOT see the love......it is absent to me, not to others, but to me. So............as much as your lovely Spike soliloquy suggests.......it isn't that simple or clean cut. And after all, it is Spike..........an emotionless evil vampire?? Frankly, I would bet good money that the writers are counting on people to hang in there so that they can demonstrate that Vincent and Catherine still have that "fire" that they had in Season 1. So,..........no, we can't just "forget" Season 1. To think we can is a bit naive. I am far from naive, neither am I insensitive, what i am is realistic. I loved Season 1 but it is not coming back. Yes I am disappointed with how little love there seems but I am hoping and praying for it's return What I don't want is to let all the doom and gloom affect my expectations that VinCat will win the day I worry that the constant comparing of Season 2 to Season 1 will ruin what's left. There are 11 more episodes to go and I am eternally optimistic that the epic love will return. I have no intentions of forgetting Season 1 and its beauty but hopefully in the end Season 2 will turn out just as beautiful

I have a question for anyone here. And I am seriously interested in answers, not being sarcastic at all . . . Does anyone here have a "line in the sand" that they cannot cross with this show - either ep 211 or 212, like @locaxbatb does? I have one - no sex with others outside Vincat. No implying that crap either. TPTB, be straight with us and "face the music" so to speak. What is your "line in the sand?" Please reply . . . mine is to feel that there are no feelings between vincat or that there are feelings towards others the sex thing is not a no no since they are not together though i will be cringing majorly I agree with Anna. That would me my "line in the sand" too. I still believe they both only have feelings for each other. The day I don't feel that I'm done..

I don't have a line in the sand because I think there is something special whenever Kristin and Jay are in a scene together. BUT, that doesn't mean that I won't come here and vent about Brad Kern (this is a forum for our opinion, good or bad, right) or send mean texts to the writers!

I would tell my heartbroken friend the same thing I've told myself. "Change what you can. Accept what you cannot change." It's OK to remember the good things. But, constantly dwelling on the heartbreak & loss will not fix the situation.
Sad but true.

I understand the folks who are upset AND the ones who want to move on. One thing is for sure - we beasties have POWER. So the effort to let TPTB know our feelings on these issues is an important one, hence all the "complaining." If we all sit back and are quiet, they may never know how we feel. At least I HOPE someone from the staff or cast takes a look at our tweets and posts once in a while. They'd be crazy not to....

If they gave a 2nd thought to what we want and what hurts or not, they would never put Vincent hitting Cat. This season was never targeted to S1's beasties, that's the sad reality. They only cared about the new audience they wanted to reach.

I hoping that Catherine shoots the bad guys dead tonight to protect Vincent identity because I think that would be good surprise And this will help Catherine out of her denial about her feeling about Vincent & that Vincent will start to fight for Catherine & tell Gabe to keep his hands of her because Catherine belong to him.

So Vincent can have his hands on Tori as much as he like, but Gabe can't have his hands on Cat?

you couldn't have chose a more appropriate username for yourself. love your writing - so positive almost the whole time! i don't know why but i picture rainbows, birds chirping and spring whenever i read your comments I understand the folks who are upset AND the ones who want to move on. One thing is for sure - we beasties have POWER. So the effort to let TPTB know our feelings on these issues is an important one, hence all the "complaining."

This is definitely the one thing that we can do/change (as per beastiegirl.happy.puppy comment)

So Vincent can have his hands on Tori as much as he like, but Gabe can't have his hands on Cat? ideally i would like them both to keep their hands off other people but not sure to be fair this si going to happen in 211 following last weeks episode though i would like vincent more to take the initiative with cat and prove himself

Before I would definitely have said my line in the sand would be no longer having KK in the show. But now, if she did a Linda Hamilton, I would probably tune in for at least a few more episodes to see how this storyline played out. If KK is still in the show but the production values and the acting and everything else became as cheesy looking and embarrassing to watch as I found the final seasons of Smallville to be, then I don't know if I would be able to sit down and watch every week. The kissing and sex stuff doesn't bother me. VinCat aren't together right now so I don't really care if they sleep with other people, although Vincent has his beast issue so he should be careful in that regard and Catherine really shouldn't kiss her boss in the middle of the precinct.
