BC - Tue, 9/13/11

Greenlee talked about walking into the penthouse and it being so eerily quiet. It's the wee hours of the morning. Where is Emma if Ryan is out drinking at the bar and Greenlee went over to talk to Kendall?

I like this episode. The whole thing consisted of people talking to each other in the wee hours of the morning, sharing feelings, stories and confidences, and simply thanking each other for being in their lives. It's part of the wind-down, of course, but it's a nice part. It's an acknowledgement that everyone is moving on, that bad things happen in life, but that the people are all still connected, regardless of what the future holds. It's back to CHARACTERS, not inventing exciting events that throw years of history and personalities out the window for the sake of a quick flash. It would be boring if all episodes were like this one, but I thought it was a nice touch.

Funny, I found this show to be a waste of time, as compared to some of the recent more dramatic shows. A show we didn't need among the final ten. Also want to say that I'll miss your recaps more that the show itself!

Thank you, Mary!

I think people had either a loved it/hated it reaction to it. It just seemed poignant to me and the actors seem to be putting more of themselves into the characters than usual, making them come across more like real people.

Oops, just realized that the v was not a truncated y. Sorry about that Marv!
