Members detroitpiston Posted June 21, 2008 Members Share Posted June 21, 2008 Ok I caught last night's ep. It was good. Next week seems even better. I the Janet and Trina rivalry. The show needs to ditch the little kids though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted June 21, 2008 Members Share Posted June 21, 2008 I missed Thursday's episode. I assume it is available online at CBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 Hey, don't bash the Palms! I'm aware that it was complete and utter superficial trash, but I ate up every single bite. Michael Cassidy made the show for me, and I adored the way he played up his character's underlying attraction to Taylor Handley. I'd be the only one in line to buy the DVD, but I'd be content! And yeah, I get what you're saying about the music, but what I notice is that they use the predictable, iconic 70s songs. The sex scenes could use some Silver Convention or First Choice!

Members EricMontreal22 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 Oh I wanted to LOVE Hidden Palms and I found the pilot had so much potential. The fact they rewrote the swinging/wife swapping couple after it made me lose all faith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted June 23, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 I loved episode 3. What was interesting was the reaction of Janet's husband to the implication of Susan and her husband swinging... The only thing I didn't like was poor Janet finding that Killjoy picture of herslef on the wall. I knwo adults, especially in party situations can behave as badly as teenagers but would someone actually have drawn that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 5, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I foudn the porn episode in spots too obvious but still really good--I liked that they used the real Deep Throat incident, down to the actor's name when I thought they'd just make up a similar one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 11, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 11, 2008 Another great episode--I particularly liked that it was Trina's HUSBAND who got jealous of the guy she was with--her old BF and not the more typical story of Trina gettign jealous first. A bit too obvious how they shipped off the son for camp so they wouldn't have to show his story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 11, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 11, 2008 Am I the only one still watching? LOL I hope this means they have steady enough ratings to keep the show thru its 13 eps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted July 11, 2008 Members Share Posted July 11, 2008 Eh, I've tried to keep up Eric, but I missed last nights episode, and I didn't really care. Some of the stories were boring me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 11, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 11, 2008 AH I love how it's a slow build and we're seeing the characters change so much but in subtle ways. But I suspect much of America--especiallyf or a Summer network tv could care less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steve Posted July 12, 2008 Members Share Posted July 12, 2008 I missed it two weeks ago (I think it had to do with the gang at a cabin?). I thought last week's episode with Harry Reems was okay but I agree that it was sometimes too obvious. This week's episode was the best so far. I love how Janet keeps evolving. She's easily my favorite character on the show. Susan & Bruce seem headed for a breakup as she starts living her own life. I think you were right and Susan is going to hook up with Roger at some point. I loved how Susan paid for the gift certificate so Janet wouldn't know they couldn't afford it. The menage a trois was more interesting since it was Trina's old high school boyfriend than it would have been with some random guy. I also loved that Tom was the jealous one when the threesome occurred. Now I'm wondering if Bruce will end up having one with them if/when Susan does leave him. I was glad that the teens weren't around. Imo, the show is much better without them. Now if only they would take Laurie & her former teacher off with them...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 13, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 13, 2008 Yay aSTeve is still watching and likes them At first I was worried that Janet wasn't subtle enough, but I love hwo they've been writing her character and her friendship with Susan--I'm also glad that they didn't go with the cliche of her being jealous and hating Trina for more than a few eps. The Cabin ep was kinda the switch episode for that but even gettign her to eat pot brownies was done in a way that it made sense--I think the actress plays a big part--she's really great even with some thankless lines like the ep one over cleaning "this place is a pigstye" one What bugged me about the Haryr Reams ep--well one thing was the song ended with I Am WOman Hear Me Roar. Now I'm hardly anti porn (...) and I don't think it's necesarily mysogynistic but it just seemed odd,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 Well another, solid episode. I dunno I kinda wish a bit more had happened just because I'm worried about ratings--but next week's looks like more of a "big" episode. I did love many of the moments between characters (even for the first time the daughter and the teacher) but not so keen on the implied affair...
