Saying Goodbye

Warehouse 13 recently concluded its second season, and I’m so sad to say that I won’t be back for a third, even if the show is renewed. It’s really hard to say goodbye to the show because I could see it being my #1 show if the true stars of the show remained Myka and Pete (and Artie, to lesser extent).

Instead of acclimating to the addition of Claudia, I have found the character, and the actress, to be more and more distasteful. I place the blame evenly on poor writing and poor acting. The character routinely reminds us that she is a young genius, yet she attempts to throw out cool 80’s references a la Shawn and Gus from Psych. The combination rings false. Claudia is also supposed to be some modern punk (I suppose) with her Kool-Aid striped hair and Hot Topic wardrobe. This would have been almost cool around seven or eight years ago. As it is, the whole look is cliched and played out. The actress has begun to clean up her speech, but her tendency to mumble and vomit up words is still too pronounced for me to be able to sit through any dialogue involving Claudia.

I tried to fast forward through any Claudia scenes all through Season 2, but in the end, I finalized the split by deleting Warehouse 13 from my DVR for good. Now I selfishly hope that it doesn’t get renewed because I really am going to miss the stories, the artifacts, Pete, Myka, Artie, Leena, and Mrs. Frederick.

I also deleted Glee from DVR, but I have to admit that I felt much less regret than with WH13. I guess I’m too old to really care about most of the music played, and I never cared for the lead actress’ voice at all. I really only cared about Shu and Finn, and all of the “Hot News” in the off season was about Kirk and who would play his bf, so I took that as a sign to run. I wish the show well, though, and that’s more than I can say about most.
