Members alwaysAMC Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 God I love the FRAK outta this show. Marion Ross did a great job as Nora's mom. LOL at her thinking Justin was the gay one! Loved the entire episode - Nora's party - which brought the entire family together and that is when this show is at it's best. How cute was that ending with the mom taking care of the kids. Kevin is so cute and I loved we got 2 more kisses - this show is totally not scared of showing gay relationships and I love it! Oh and I am really getting into the Senator/Kitty - I still miss Warren, but Rob Lowe is really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I agree with everything you said Andy I loved Marion Ross Justin's an addict, Kevin's Gay, and this one! this ones making pornographic pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I loved tonights episode, which isn't a surprise because this show rarely disappoints...There were moments when i laughed out loud (the video, drinking in the closet, and most lines out of Kevin's mouth at the party), when i teared up (Nora's mom giving her the framed picture), and when i just got excited to be watching such a groundbreaking show (the gay kisses/love how real this storyline is)...Also Rob Lowe is great in this role, and i agree he and Calista have some smoking chemistry...

Members Steve Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I think last night's episode was the best one yet and that's saying a lot because this show has had several great episodes, imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mason Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 Last night's show was so good! Definitely my favorite episode so far this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I agree last nights' B&S was one of the best episodes of the series, if not THE best yet. I want more Marion Ross, they should have her as a recurring character. Love her as Nora's mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I love all the Wicked in-references--I believe this is the third since the show zstarted--I knwo the musical is big in LA right now (i think anyway or it was running prob when mos tof this was shot) but I can't help thinking it's B&S's creator, the playwright Baitz giving a wink to his ex, who he dated for 15 years and is still close to, Broadway director jo Montello who directed Wicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Josh Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 YES!!!! I hope that ABC fast tracks it like they do with Lost, Grey's and DH!! Those are usually avaiable in September...I love this show so much and I didn't think I would. Off Topic sorta, but who was the original actress they cast as Nora Walker before Sally Field?

Members DruRocks Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Betty Buckley. Sally Field replaced Betty Buckley after focus groups reacted negatively to the character when shown the original pilot for the series.

Members EricaKane70 Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Umm, I don't think I would be taking about this show if sally field wasn't on it, shes the glue that holds this show together. I just can't see Betty in this role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mason Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 All I'm gonna say is THANK GAWD for Sally Field! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 The pilot was quite different right? the dad died RIGHT at the beginning? I think Kitty's bf was a different actor too. I *love* Betty Buckley--she's a VERY talented woman --ever since Carrie and of course a Broadway star but she does come off as a bit cold--and I think the mom character works better with warmth. However I just have to make it clear that if youg uys haven't seen Betty work -- she really is a star and a great actress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 http://community.tvguide.com/forum.jspa?forumID=700009576 Creator Jon Robin Baitz recently updated his blog on the show with details (non spoilery--mor ehints) for the upcoming ten eps. Interesting that they still get so many negative letters about havign a gay on the show in this day and age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
