"Melrose Place" 1.03 Review

Only 1.50 million people tuned in for a really great episode? Come on! It deserved a lot more than that, definetly, the episode was filled with everything.
.
Starting with Riley and Jonah, they are a great couple, but can't seem to go through one whole episode without an argument arising. Ella is wonderful, really dominant yet she shows she has a vulnerable side, so I really love her character, I am still torn with who my favourite character is - Riley or Ella, hmm!
.
This episode had everyone feeling a lot more relaxed now, I think the show is finally getting settled and really boiling out the good stuff. It was good to see Jonah doing that music video, bless him when he is told he won't get credited for it, I hope Ella slaps her boss one, and soon. Violet is becoming more likeable, though still a little strange, I can tell she is attracted to Auggie, and him refusing to take the sunglasses can't be good.
.
The ending was very creepy- why does David's father have a file called Ella and another one called Auggie on his computer for? That is seriously strange and I can't wait to find out what the files contain, and I wonder if he has any files on the other characters.
.
All in all, an episode that is proving the series is getting better by the minute and something I look forward to seeing renewed for a second season, though with the ratings being quite bad, I have little to no hope of that happening.

"Private Practice" Season Two Review


Private Practice is a spin-off of Grey's Anatomy, one of my favourite shows, and I didn't immediately watch the series, as I only watched Season One for the first time two months ago as I got the DVD for my birthday, in the UK, it only came out in March 2009, which is really bad. However, I really enjoyed Season 1 and I was glad I asked for it for my birthday. So I had some major catching up to do, as I didn't watch Season 2 immediately, and I finished watching season two earlier this week.
.
Season 2 had just begun on LIVING and I thought I would watch it and decide whether to just watch it once a week on the channel, or catch up on the internet, so I chose the latter, and I was very glad. Season 2 is by any means better than the first season, there are new problems each week, and the episodes are very captivating and watchable, so I will definitely buy the DVD when it comes out like next year for us in the UK.
.
One of the things I hated this season was Dell. I really don't like him, he was okay in the first season, but he really did my head in this season. He just involves himself with everything where his nose doesn't belong, and becomes way too personal with other people's problems and acts like a right huffy woman most of the season, and that really annoyed me.
.
But the best episode? I would say the finale, it was very shocking, and ended on a cliffhanger, like nearly every show in the 2008-2009 season. I think my favourite character this season was Violet, she was amazing, very relaxed and a great character while pregnant, and the ending? Well I won't spoil it but it puts Violet's and the baby's lives in jeapordy. Recomended? If you're a Grey's fan and a fan of Addison Montgomery (which I am) then definetly watch this series.
