Is too much to 'splain, I will sum up
Now that I have slept on my initial Kings squee, my non-spoilery thoughts are as follows:
I'm not a Jack fan. I find him tiresome. I can see how the actor was on Gossip Girl, and I do not mean that favorably. He's going to have to work much harder if he thinks I'm giving him David EVER. I'm no longer interested in pairings where I only love one side and think the other person is an unworthy tosser* (Lex/Clark, Draco/Harry).
* And I say this knowing exactly how this storyline is supposed to go. Right now this actor is failing in convincing me that what is supposed to come will be potrayed effectively.
Rev Samuels, Silas and David though? LOVE 'EM. Like hardcore, pet incessantly love. Rev Samuels/David? Yes. Silas/Rev Samuels back in the day? DOUBLE YES.
You can holler at me in the comments if you want to discuss my spoilery thoughts though.
ETA Does anybody have a copy of Lisa Hannigan's 'Sea Sew' or the new Doves 'Kingdom of Rust'? I am totally in the market here.
ETA#2: I have been running around calling Reverend Samuels Reverend Walker, I don't know why. More importantly, why didn't anybody tell me I had it wrong?! Y'all are failing on me. I bet you'd let me go out with my skirt in my knickers too. More fail. Seriously, though, why did I think his name was Rev Walker? Did we even HAVE a Rev Walker? I can only assume that the hotassery fried my brain.

Jack has potential, but he didn't live up to it in this episode. I really hope that changes in the future. Jack (Jonathan) is supposed to be David's best friend.
Damn it, I've been completely spoiled by Merlin.

I knew exactly what it was, but still... it seemed mighty erotic. I'm just saying. And I wasn't even looking at the car when I had that thought.

I know! And this is part of why I was like, damn, Jack you are just a whinging pussy, aren't you? I mean, if under all that bitching I'd seen a glimmer of inner strength, hell, a flashback to him being all bad ass and brave on the battlefield, I'd've be like, right, he's multifaceted. Mostly I just thought, oh, hell to the no.
The production values and the majority of the acting is much stronger than anything you'll get on Merlin, but Merlin, you know, it's Merlin...
