I’m so excited for the season finale tomorrow. I feel like I’m late with this but seeing as how the ship feud is still going strong I guess I have time to blab. So Jarco has to be the weirdest pairing I’ve seen in a long time. Not weird cause of fans and their ramblings but how the show just threw it in with little to no build up or fleshing out. I can’t think of any other show that’s done this.



Ok, so “build up” may not have been a good choice there. They have been working up towards it since season 1; Marco’s constant ravings of affection had to have paid off eventually but I was just hoping it would be more. Can anyone tell me who Jackie is? I know she loves skating, she’s nice, pretty laid back….and that’s it. She may or may not have lived in a ravine but aside from that she’s just been a plot device this entire time. That makes it really hard for me to take in the intimate scenes her and Marco share cause the only thing I can see is a guy who’s living a fantasy and a girl who’s probably rolling with it cause why not.



I was hoping after Bon Bon that Jackie would show up more. Maybe have an episode or two where Marco learns more about her and he either falls more in love or is slowly being turned off while she begins to fall for him.. But no, just a small phone call in one episode then jumps back for another kiss after having a plethora of Starco bait and foreshadowing of things to come; only came to remind us that Marco is seeing someone. It’s all she’s good for.



I really do want to like this ship. If it’s going to stick around the better half of the show, you bet I want to enjoy it rather than sitting around waiting for the scenes to pass. Suppose it doesn’t help that Marco and Jackie’s personalities don’t even gel well. Maybe it’s Marco’s insecurity but I’m not sure. Obviously he and Star have pretty good chemistry but I’d argue that he has more chemistry with Tom than Jackie. The way I see it now, there are 2 possibilities:Marco breaks up with Jackie for Star or he breaks up with Jackie but also rejects Star cause he feels he’s not ready for relationships.



Welp, finale is nearly here. I doubt we’ll learn anything more about Jackie there but maybe next season :P
