Members Sylph Posted February 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 I've actually had no problem with the names. They should, however, change the typeface used in the closing credits, because it just doesn't fit anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 But Les is still there! Now when Les leaves, then it will be right time to have the talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 RE: Closing Credits Music I still don't think it's a good fit for the show, but it sounds like they at least tried to compose something longer that they didn't have to put in a constant loop like the old theme. That said, I wonder if they'll sell it on iTunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted February 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 I don't think they're perfect, either of them. If they dumped them tomorrow, I would not care. Repeated listening, though, influences me, in a positive direction, albeit, yes, again, something more melodramatic and trashy would have been better. The closing just didn't mesh with the music. All those aerial shots of Point Dume and that theme? Blah. I love those images that end every episode, though all of them are quite dated, and the typeface increases the datedness factor, but they need to figure out a way to do it differently.

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Not a fan of some of the sound effects they added to the opening, I could do without the audience applause sound at the beginning. It makes it a little more realistic, but then why does it just fade away after a few seconds and then come back later? LOL I think they should just get rid of it. I really need an avatar of this opening, I love the whole section with the 4 women walking down the runway, then Katie/Donna/Hope/Taylor/Steffy/Thomas. Wow, I loved Bill on Friday's show when he poured his heart out to comatose Liam Don Diamont. did a great job. IDK about anyone else, but I am not feeling Bill's plan to try to launch Amber off of that cliff. LOL the foreshadowing dreams are just so weird and I think it's to much...

Members Sylph Posted February 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 You do. I want to see that. I thought the writing was so clunky and everything was so semaphored. Just hideous. You could see every step they were going to take. And I thought Diamont sucked, while I felt Amber's anguish (yeah, I know, people will hate me for saying that). But then – she turned 180° and was all weird to Hope, who I can't stand. The episode was just bad. If it hadn't been for that jumping off a Malibu cliff, it would've sucked liked rotten fish.

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Lol I actually agree with the bolded & I was surprised..I felt for Amber these last two episodes!! I did not however understand why she was tame with Hope. It would have been better if she switched gears and got bitchy with her. Hope needs to just STFU and Amber shouldn't have acted so nice, despite what happened. She should be & is scared of Bill, but Hope? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dsvd79 Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 I was on vacation last week, so I didn't get to see the show. I forgot to reset my DVR, and caught the last 3 minutes, with Amber and Bill. I really liked his dream. I wish it would really happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 That ending dream with Amber falling off the cliff was pretty well done -- it wasn't even too CGI! I've been wanting somebody to do that to Amber for ever! Still, I cannot deny that when Adrienne Frantz pulls out the tears, she can be very convincing. And she is the lynchpin character in this SL, driving it along. Sure, it's a total retread of what she did to Rick but I'm ok with that. I'm also ok with the way she is locking horns with Bill. Speaking of Bill, when is Steffy McCollagenLips going to take him on? Katie-Bill-Steffy is a triangle I would really love to see, even though I have a fondness for Bill and Katie. The opening is growing on me. The music is great. I wish the actors' names were in upper case and the character names were in lower case, though.

Members Sylph Posted February 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 I like Adrienne Frantz. I don't love her, but she is OK. The problem is the material she is given, as always, making a 32-year old woman stuck in teenager storylines, but she does what she can with it. Love the avatar.

Members P.J. Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Good grief, Steffy's back two days and I'm already back to being sick of her. And WHAT is with her hair? I can't wait to see Dayzee slap this bitch down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
