J Larsen Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 (edited) I'm at work, so I don't have time to go into this in detail, but I wanted to see if I was alone on this one or not. I thought last nights episode was very cliched, predictable, silly, poorly executed (David had at least two clear opportunities to escape), and, most importantly, I feel like they're missing a lot of very obvious plot points that are ripe for developing. I've already been in one argurment over this, so I want to see what other people think. Edited July 27, 2005 by Use3D Quote
The Mule Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 You mean "David's Big Adventure?" ugh. Frankly, I think most of the season has been off. Glad Ali G is back! Quote
Christiern Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 It was disturbing, but I'll wait for next week's episode before I decide that it was an gratuitous aside. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 I also thought it sucked, big time. Disturbing and gratuitous are good descriptions. When it ended, I told my wife (who also thought it was a bad episode) that I will not be watching that show again. (but I reserve the right to change my mind) Quote
mgraham333 Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 None of the characters really interest me anymore - Nate, David, Claire, Ruth, Brenda all of their storylines seemed to have dead-ended. If it doesn't improve I can free up an hour for jazz on Sunday Quote
Uncle Skid Posted July 27, 2005 Report Posted July 27, 2005 Is Nate dead? ← Who cares?? I watched the first two episodes of this new season, and I can't take it anymore. Horrible writing, annoying characters, and ridiculous plot lines. Whatever magic this show had initially is long gone. Quote
Johnny E Posted July 27, 2005 Report Posted July 27, 2005 Is Nate dead? ← Who cares?? I watched the first two episodes of this new season, and I can't take it anymore. Horrible writing, annoying characters, and ridiculous plot lines. Whatever magic this show had initially is long gone. ← I disagree. The last couple episodes (that you obviously missed) were very VERY good. I think Nate is dead. Quote
Use3D Posted July 27, 2005 Report Posted July 27, 2005 gah I don't have this season yet, warned other future viewers! Quote
Johnny E Posted July 27, 2005 Report Posted July 27, 2005 I actually don't know for sure, but it did appear that way at the end of the last episode. We'll have to find out next week. Sorry if I gave away too much to anyone. Quote
SEK Posted July 29, 2005 Report Posted July 29, 2005 I was ready to give up on "Six Feet Under" last season, but my wife wanted to watch it. This season has been much better: less sensational and more motivated. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted August 2, 2005 Report Posted August 2, 2005 It sounds like I may have gave up on this season too early. I've caught the last 5 minutes or so of the last two episodes, so I guess I already know this season's big surprise. ... and where the heck did Ed Begley Jr come from? Quote
Quincy Posted August 2, 2005 Report Posted August 2, 2005 ... and where the heck did Ed Begley Jr come from? ← I still haven't seen whatever season recently came out on DVD, though there was no way to ignore the recent spoiler. I first read about it in a baseball article! Bumped into to it a couple of more times since though at least they were in TV-related articles. Ed Begley Jr. was a boyfriend of the mother for a few episodes. I think it was the 1st season, but it may have been the 2nd. It was quite the pleasant surprise as other than appearing in Christopher Guest movies it's rare that I've seen him in much since St. Elsewhere. Quote
Johnny E Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 It sounds like I may have gave up on this season too early. I've caught the last 5 minutes or so of the last two episodes, so I guess I already know this season's big surprise. ... and where the heck did Ed Begley Jr come from? ← This is the final season and there is still three more episodes. So there may be more surprises to come. Quote
