As most of you know, The 4400<\/em> is driving me completely fucking insane this season. OK, so now they’re making it look like Diana and Marco might hook up again, which I would actually be OK with since I like Marco way better than the walking oil slick she supposedly has “chemistry” with. But the way they’ve set it up is sort of weird, with Maia acting as the annoying catalyst (Maia, remember, was also strangely psychotic about Diana getting together with Oil Slick. Maybe it’s time to stop taking romantic advice from your sometimes-creepy pre-teen adoptive daughter, Diana!).<\/p>\n

They’re also moving Tom and the Totally Expendable Blonde closer together, which is expected, but still very tiresome. The preview for next week is especially hilarious. I don’t see it on the USA website, so let me re-create it for you:<\/p>\n

OK, so first Richard comes back and they’re like, “Richard’s back!” and Isabelle is all, “Dad?!”<\/p>\n

Then they’re like, “He has plans for his daughter!” And they show him acting shady, like he’s kidnapping Isabelle or something.<\/p>\n

THEN, they’re all, “But Tom has plans of his own!!!” And they show Tom…making out with Totally Expendable Blonde.<\/p>\n

How are these two things connected to each other?! They don’t say, “MEANWHILE, Tom has plans of his own.” The way they say it makes it seem like Tom making out with Totally Expendable Blonde will somehow save Isabelle from the possibly-nefarious clutches of her father. And maybe it does. That would make about as much sense as some of the other storylines going on this season.<\/p>\n

One good thing I’ve been noticing: Isabelle must have taken some acting lessons or something, because she is like 5 million times better this season. Maybe it’s because the character has gained some humility and is no longer a psycho hosebeast, but I actually enjoy watching her storyline!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
