Gorgeous Janelle Monae icons are gorgeous. Thanks for the link =D
I am really trying not to predict the worst about Undercovers but I can't help but think about how it could be used against other proposed shows. Will there ever be an all POC lead with this much happiness and non-stereotyping again? My gut tells me that we'll have to wait a few decades for that to happen again.
Damn.
Ummm...Nikita. I tune in for Maggie Q. I should just be glad that Nikita's characterization has some dimension. They'll (evil powers that be) probably say that Jaden was pulled because she just wasn't "working" but that was a matter of bad writing. A character with massive potential, ruined. And now, apparently missing. Are we to assume she was canceled? I guess. But they could have at least acknowledged that they did have her canceled instead of pulling her out like she never existed, the assholes. And enough with the manpain already. I'm in this show for the kickass women with guns and skills and all they keep serving me is potential love interests and Percy. Urgh.
Mhhmm...as you can see, I have thoughts about Nikita.
ETA: Lurking through your comments, and I'd totally encourage you to make a post to undercovers if you want :) Mod approved!
