After this episode, however, I'm not going to promise that I'll be watching next week. I'm losing patience with this show; I'm completely not captivated by any of it. I'm vaguely interested in the Kelly/Mr. Matthews stuff, and that may get more interesting next week if Brenda gets thrown into the mix. Let's hope so, because these high school kids are sleep-inducing.
Comments:
- Naomi does look about 40.
- Real life ages of Mr. Matthews (Ryan Eggold) and Kelly Taylor (Jennie Garth): 23 and 36. That's veering into Nate and Duchess Catherine's territory. Not to mention that to play a parent on a teen soap, I think you only have to be about 13 years older than the kid.
- Oh, man, Naomi's denim jump suit (with shorts) is hideous.
- Ryan's such a cutie volunteering at the juvenile detention center every day.
- Pretty sure that "family night" was uncool in Wichita too.
- Kelly: "Doesn't it freak you out that I have a child?"
Ryan: "Doesn't it freak you out that I am a child?" - So Kelly's kid's dad is a guy from high school with lots of history with her, they lost touch, got back together, had the baby, had issues. Sounds like Brandon to me, but Jennie Garth concurred with me in an interview that the father will will be whoever (Brandon or Dylan) agrees to guest star on the show first.
- I'm impressed that Silver can bowl at all considering how skinny she is.
- Wait, we're watching a bowling montage? Has it come to this? Weren't we watching blow jobs in the parking lot just last week? Is there no middle ground?
- So, on Thursdays Naomi goes to night clubs and on Fridays she goes bowling? I find that hard to believe.
- Evan: "So, anyway, I'm going to save most of that emotional goodness for my audition for The Hills."
- First The Virgins, now Vampire Weekend. At least the soundtrack is enjoyable.
- So, to help Naomi deal with seeing her dad cheating on her mom, the other girl runs and gets the guy who cheated on Naomi to talk to her? It doesn't seem like that should work.
- Hmm, Ryan seems to have some money-related demons.
- If Silver didn't want to get caught sleeping in her car, she might have driven it a little further away from Dixon's house.
- I think Naomi looks as old as her mom...
- Wow, tour de force acting here from Dixon in the scene he reveals that he too had a rough home life ("You think I don't know what it's like?"), and I'm only being marginally sarcastic about that.
- Ugh, I'd be okay with telling Dixon's parents about my rough home life, but I wouldn't want to that annoying Annie girl to know...
- Eew, another terrible pair of shorts on Naomi!
- Naomi has a sibling? I'd forgotten about that... where is he/she?
- Wow, Kelly's mom really is a piece of work...
- Marissa's lifeguard station!
- Can they write Annie off this show? No? It's worth a try.
- In next week's promo, Mr. Matthews is looking a little homeless.
