Members detroitpiston Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 QUOTE (Chris B @ May 21 2009, 05:50 PM) The pilot twist gets worse! From Michael Ausiello: That's even worse than what ended up on screen. I'm so happy Heather passed on the show. And to think, the press made her out to be some money hungry star. She was being smart and she was right. Actually, I would have liked that a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 22, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted May 22, 2009 I know I haven't seen the pilot yet but oh man, I'm losing faith in Todd Slavkin & Darren Swimmer as showrunners. I really wanted Mark Schwahn as showrunner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 Aw, come on Toups, I usually count on you being the positive one! Personally, I'm glad Mark isn't the showrunner. He's got horrible pacing and after awhile, he gets too obsessed with characters and starts to ruin them by featuring them too much(i.e Peyton and Jamie on OTH). My ideal showrunner would have been Darren Star, but for some reason they didn't even ask him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 Ugh. I hope that David's paternity is just a series of incorrect information because it makes absolutely no sense for them to retcon it. Did Michael even have any kids during the show's run? I think he might have gotten someone pregnant towards the end, but I usually stop watching the reruns by the end of S4. Why couldn't they get Grant Show back again? I thought I read that he wouldn't rule out a return. So great to see the building again. It just wouldn't be MP without that particular building. I'm gonna miss seeing Allison's crappy little car parked out front next to Matt's jeep... The cast photo makes me miss when shows did real cast pictures, and not those police lineups where everyone is like three feet away from each other. Re: the preview...GuyWhoPlaysDavid is horrible! Aw, Syd says that they were like a family when she first moved in. Yeah, you slept with your sister's ex-husband. Colin!! And yea, I definitely think that Michael might not be David's father. It seems like he might have had a relationship with him between then and now that might have given them sort of a father-son relationship. IDK.

Members Laurie Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 Still going to watch because of Colin but not as excited now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 22, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted May 22, 2009 I know.. I'm still going to watch every episode of MP 2.0 but I'm just a little less excited now. I hope to get that excitement back though. I feel like the main characters get their fair share of stories. I just think Mark is a fantastic writer who understands character driven stories yet able to do the outlandish-MP-style stories. Yeah, he would've been my #1 choice too.

Members dragonflies Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 This is killing any excitment I had for this show knowing that TC and LL were returning. Are they trying to kill the show before it gets off the ground? Well Smallville fans think they pretty much sucked on that show, so I have NO faith in them whatsoever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members detroitpiston Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 New promo set to "Circus". The new set looks amazing! Hopefully they don't do what 90210 did and cut out all the sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 The show looks great and has good MP feel to it. Haven't read any spoiler tags but if they as it seems I'm kind of let down. Still, the show looks interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tina m Posted May 23, 2009 Members Share Posted May 23, 2009 Great promo! I heard about in regards to 90210. Apparently there were a few hot scenes between Naomi and Ethan they cut out very early in the year. Totally unfair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 23, 2009 Members Share Posted May 23, 2009 ETA: I've seen it now. Damn, that's good! The voiceovers all sound very Melrosian to me, and it looks like they didn't change the building tooo much (besides add all of those plants). I don't watch nu90210 (maybe I should start in the summer?), but how much sex could they have possibly taken out of orig90210? The high school years, at least? Brandon did it maybe once or twice (definitely once with Cheryl, and maybe with Emily?), Brenda and Dylan would get to it every now and then, Donna and David were virgins throughout HS, Steve never had a steady girlfriend in HS, and Kelly was busy trying to live down the "reputation" that she had already tried to live up.

Members detroitpiston Posted May 23, 2009 Members Share Posted May 23, 2009 Annalynne McCord said most of the scenes they filmed for the pilot of 90210 were cut because they were too graphic, and if you look at one of the promos for it, there's a shot of Naomi & Ethan having sex that you won't see in the episode.

Members Sylph Posted May 26, 2009 Members Share Posted May 26, 2009 If that’s true — and Ausiello says — than this is the worst piece of crap ever written. So far in primetime. That is hysterical!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
