Dear Eric Kripke and Joss Whedon,

I admire both of you.  You two write very good shows.  Firefly's one of my top favorites, as is Supernatural.

However, with all due respect, I must disagree with the generally held opinion that you're the writers of the most tearjerking episodes ever.  Yes, All Hell Breaks Loose was sad.  So was the Supernatural s3 finale.  Firefly too had its moments, particularly in Serenity.  And by all reports, Buffy's got some real heartwrenchers.

Don't get me wrong, you guys are pretty good. 

But...try watching Torchwood sometime.

It is with considerable regret that I must label you with this adjective, but label I must.

You two are amateurs.

Love, dreamwaffles.

(ok, this was weird.  BUT IT WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD COPE WITH THE MOST RECENT EPISODE OF TORCHWOOD OMGWTF I AM CRYING BUCKETS OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD.  -sobs-

WHO'S WITH ME TO RETCON THE HELL OUT OF THIS SEASON?)

*skips merrily along with no knowledge of this sadness*
*remembers Doctor Who first and second season finales plus other assorted episodes*
*feels some semblance of the sadness you do*
*stops skipping*
*see userpic*
*wow this has to stop*

THIS IS WORSE THAN DOCTOR WHO.

...for me.

Think, on the level of Who's s2 finale for you, depression-wise. Except worse.

And remember that I rarely ever get as deeply emotionally involved as you do in shows.

But this time I did.

...I have to go to bed.

Oh. My. God.

This is worse than Doctor Who could ever, EVER be.

*gives interwebs hugs/IOUs for real hugs when I get up there* I sorries they mess up your shows :(

The last time I cried buckets (at a TV show) was the House season 4 finale...and at the opening scene to new Star Trek, I don't even know why, but that bit just got to me.

SAME (as aliaras). I totally cried my eyes out at the House Season 4 finale. UGH. And during SGA when _____died.

I will conceded that in the light of Torchwood, Kripke is less of a magnificent bastard and more of an amateur fanboy. HOWEVER. You are not allowed to call Whedon an Amateur until you have watched the first season of Dollhouse. I am miffed that you jumped to conclusions about the extent of his genius.

Hey, I drew the conclusion from the data I've got.
