What a romantic first time for Cam and  Joss, btwn their distraught friend passed out in the next room and their being secretly recorded. I don’t think Esme has any long term goal here she’s just enjoying burning sh!t down. 

Peter with the baby was so hilariously bad. I can’t believe he’s still alive to do these things

I get it lol

We've watched William Lipton and Eden McCoy since they were like 14 and now we're watching them bang so I could see how it could be a little awkward

But I'm still glad that the teens are being written as teens. These are the things they should be dealing with rather than constantly dealing with death.

And I also have to say, what a great opening scene

Agreed.  I remember cutie fire starter Cam.   I am not a fan of Joss/Cam but thank goodness they are actually acting like teens.  I have never seen a teen set so 'pure'.  Brenda/Jagger were banging on nurse's office desks at school 30 years ago.  Karen was stripping.  Even Robin had sex at like 15.  These teens were so unlike any teens in the real world I am glad they finally had sex just so that's over with lol. 

And I sometimes I am really stunned how much EM looks like LW.  It's not in every scene but at certain angles she is exactly what I would imagine Carly/Jax's kid would look like.

I think the awkwardness was more that their bff ran off crying after telling them she’s uncomfortable with their group dynamic and is crying alone in the next room. But I guess the show needed it to happen this weekend so it could be recorded in Esme’s burner phone. 

I sure don’t mind the teens having sex, but they still come across as oddly chaste and younger than their age even with both couples sexually active now.

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)
