Okay, I know there are some Erica/Father Jack shippers out there but after rewatching "Serpent's Tooth" I'm starting to believe that the producers of V are setting Erica Evans and Kyle Hobbes up as a romance. And you know what? I like it.
V is still missing a critical element and that is heart (I refuse to call it "soul" because that term has been overused a lot lately ). And that's not entirely the fault of the writers or producers because with only 10 episodes to flesh out a story, there just isn't enough time to work in romance and a ton of character development. But at some point we need to get emotionally invested with these characters and nothing can accomplish that better than an onscreen romance. And considering what she's been through with Tyler, Erica desperately needs one.
I like Father Jack. But I feel he is too weak and naive to really match the raw energy of Erica. Kyle, on the other hand, is a bad boy, tough, ruthless and with a small conscience. Erica also is a bad girl, tough, a little ruthless, but she has a huge care factor for the welfare of others. This makes her the perfect match for Kyle and they look good together.
Putting them together reminds me of Donovon and Julie from the original V series. They were both freedom fighters and tough, but they had heart and loved eachother during the war. This version of V DESPERATELY needs this and I hope that this relationship will develop into a real romance. It could be a central theme to this story.
What do you guys and gals think?
