  1. One of the, if not the, best episode ever. It was shocking, touching, heartbreaking. Alex talking to Lexi as if she was Izzy was really emotional. Mandy Moore was great, it seems like she just got a role they were casting instead of them creating a role for her. Those scenes with her bailey and that other dr were all amazing.
  2. However, it wills till get a third season order and unless it really tanks a fourth wouldnt shock me.
  3. Doesnt Fox's ratings usually go up during American idol season?
  4. Oh, without a doubt. However, that tween/teen audience will stick with it, as they normally do with shows, longer than most adults would. I think. Yes, the backlash has happened here or there in response to all the praise it gets. And those backlash articles are show down as being closed minded and whatnot. Im shocked there isnt more backlash about it. The handicap kid, the overweight black girl, the so gay he may as well be a girl guy, the asian girl who is smart, the asian boy who can dance, the random black guy who pops up and can dance, the baby crazed desperate wife, the is she or isnt she butch coach, the dump jocks, the slutty cheerleaders... Can it get any more stereotypical? And at first i embraced this because it seemed like they were goona dive into this and you were gonna see more sides of them and they would break that mold. Nope, they have instead embraced that mold. Sure it makes music work, because its in a musical setting. Something Cop Rock was not. But again, High School Musical actually made it work years before, and it didnt have a glee club as a backdrop. am glad the show is getting ripped apart for relying on guest stars tho. And gimmick episodes. The first 13 epsiodes were great, i dont know what happened during the break but damn did it fall apart.
  5. No, not really. It can rely on the hit music, the gimmicks, the guest stars, the buzzworthy cast and keep it up for another two seasons, at least. people like it, i like it. Im just sick of it being hailed as some kind of new, bold, groundbreaking, show that shows how you be diverse. A diverse show would have have more than "white" people in lead roles. A bold show would go there with finn/kurt & really go there with puck/mercadies. etc.. Glee is like a disney chan sitcom in an hour long format. Those disney shows go on for a long time. never underestimate the power of Tweens/Teens and mindless entertainment.
  6. No, i dont think so. People dont expect greatness. It has a tween/teen appeal, the cast is buzzworthy, the songs sell well on ituned, the ratings are rather steady (as far as i know). If it can keep it up it will do fine for a few season. That said, i do expect season 2 to be on the level of popular season 2/nip tuck season 4. and thats pretty bad. I mean, so many plot holes already.... Where is Quinn living? Is she keeping her baby or still thinking about adoption? The random swapping of couples is already tired. The supporting players are like walking stereotypes with little no depth. Sue is slowly taking over the show (much like Miss Glass on popular) and lea Michelle is on WAY too much. Honestly, the show plays out like a fanfic gone wrong. But again, im ok with that, for the most part, because i dont expect greatness. I expect a cheesy OTT show. It just bugs me when i read people praise how well written it is and how diverse it is. Sure, its diverse cast. Too bad that cast is stuck playing one note stereotypes in minor/supporting roles.
  7. Glee is a cute, fun new show. End of story. Its not groundbreaking, its not amazing, its not well written or all that well acted/sung. But its catchy, it uses pop culture, and it caught on. That said... wow, the cracks are so obvious so early. I knew it woudlnt be good for long after watching other Ryan Murphy shows, but i expected a solid season.
  8. OK, so back to season 5... Blake & Jennifer Cavilleri... errr Lady Ashley .. are like, having an emotional thing. krystal is having a side thing with rock hudson, who i guess is sammy jos bio dad?... idk. i ignore anything krystal related. alexis is with dex and she knows somethings up with him and amanda. she arranged a marriage between amanda and that prince. amanda/dex is hawt. steven/luke <3 Blake just told Alexis about Luke and she offered him a job. I love alexis. jeff is with this annoying nikki girl who needs to die and adam is trying to move on that bore claudia who is like anti divorce from steven for some reason. this is my fave season overall so far.
  9. Oh god, i had blocked Kirby out. Total HATE!
  10. So Alexis, Blake & Dom just went to see his dad, whom is dying. Very touching scenes. Question, did the audience know Emma Samms was Fallon? And this Amanda/Dex/Alexis triangle is very dynamic. I really dont want it to end. Adam ... or is it jeff? idk i cant tell them apart. There is an Adam isnt there? lol... annoys me, a lot. Not as much as krystal or claudia though.
  11. Oh they dont. Ever. I am very much for the rich guy in the mansion isnt any btter than the homeless man just because hes in the mansion. However... as a young gay boy growing up i wanted to be a prince, therefor Princess & Royality > The world (with the exception of Berry White & Oprah, of course). Also, i see why you have such love for Joan Collins. She is simply divine.
  12. I cant wait. Thats very true about Al. I liked that about his steven tho, because at the time Steven didnt want to fit into that mold. I dont care how cosmo your life is, a princess of sorts will always be greater by default, lol.
  13. LOL! Its true. I have no idea what either of those words mean. I dint even know how to say them, i dont think. That explains a lot. I love her.
  14. God, i can not wait. Just reading their names... I am thinking that once i get there i will have a new avie, lol.
  15. It was so unexpected. And fantastic. I really seen where Amanda came from in it. Needing love, wanting to hurt Alexis, etc... I cant wait for Alexis' reaction. Question, does Amanda & Sammy Jo share scenes? I would assume it would be epic. So far over my head. LOL.
  16. Im at the christmas episode. Such a sad scene, Little Blake saw a picture of Fallon and said "i love you mommy" then asked if she could hear him in heaven. Amanda just found out about Balke being her dad, a very underwhelming resolution to be honest. (Shes was all "i m so happy" blake was all "I knew it" adam and steven were all "oh, ok" and krys didnt even have a reaction. the eff?!) But Cath Oxen is simply wonderful to watch. I love that Amanda effed Dex. Also, who is this man> Cuz they look HOT together!
  17. Oh, i will NOT watch it. lol. I will just skip this entire mess, aside from sammy jo scenes. thank jesus for youtube edits.
  18. Oh god, LE in a dual role? I was hoping for a lookalike. I cant make it through that, shes bad enough as it is right now... MONTHS? dear god in heaven...
  19. after reading season breakdowns it seems like after the wedding/shooting at the end of season 5 it just hit a peak. season 6 seems to sound good, but 7-9 are obviously lacking something just from reading about them.
  20. It could just happen to be a coincidence, but watching them both at the same time there is so much alike between the two, far beyond the name and looks. Their attitudes. Both are entitled, but not a raging bitch. There are a lot of sides to them. Amanda Corey is much softer, of course, but im also gonna assume that Amanda Carrington smooths out after a few months. She just slept with her mothers lover, and while Amanda Corey wouldnt do that, she would try just about anything to break Rachel & Carl up. Motives are different, but still.. idk, i cant shake how alike they are (and i LOVE it) I agree about the douchbagness, but i also feel that it was writtn that way. Steven was at times an ass. He was trying to be one thing whn he had an overwhelming desire to be who he was, and anyone going through that wouldnt be the nicest person all the time. I also onlky feel he was a douchbag when it came to protecting his sexuality and his family, very understandable. The first steven was much more "gayer" but its obvious that dynasty couldnt go where they wanted to go because of the times. I like them equally actually. But Ac was def more attractive. And WTF! Amanda goes from a classy, simi spoiled, brit bitch to this middle class lookin, kmart shopin, american girl? Fail. I doubt the raise CO wanted was out of line. [quote name='Cheap21' date='14 May 2010 - 01:52 PM' timestamp='1273870360' post='836809' WHAT! Sammi Jo rocks. Hands down one of the best characters on Dynasty. Enjoy her now while she's bad and fun bc she eventually goes soft and gets redeemed. She mad the perfect little gold digging biyatch in the beginning Jammy Jo, PSM's Fallon, Alexis, Amanda & Dom are my top 5, easily.
  21. OMG. They recasted? WHY! Was Cath a bitch? She does seem like one, idk why, just does. Such a downgrade. Also, This Amanda reminds me a lot of Amanda on AW, whom popped up a few years after this i think. I wonder if they drew upon this for inspiration?
  22. Amanda is one of the most stunningly beautiful women ive ever seen.
  23. fallon is "dead", blake found out he and D are related, alexis is on trial, sammy jo kidnapped danny, and amanda just showed up. im about 7 episodes into season 5. i skipepd ahead with luke/steven, thats why i knew about him dying and all of that. i am in love with amanda <3
  24. I was so sad when he died, but expected. One Steven invited him to that ball i was all "oh [!@#$%^&*], hes gonna die" lol. Ali macgraw <3 Love Story is one of my all time fave movies. I just found out george peppard (sp?) was cast as blake, i love him in breakfast at tiffanys. Oh, and idk if you were asking me that last question, but i am not there yet. i dont think. i only watched the steven/luke story and am now wacthing all of season 5, doesnt colbys start after season 5? fallon just "died" and emma samms started, and i do not like her at all as fallon. i guess i should breakout some sorta guide to get through all of this, lol.
  25. LOL, well as of right now the epsidoes being put up do not expire until 5/2013
