"90210" 2.03 Review

I LOVE Season 2, and we're only up to Episode 3! I have to tell you, I really am clueless how the rest of the season will go as it's just so random now with the show, but what I do know is that I love, love, love the show, very deeply. Who knew I would feel this way about it?
.
First off, Annie and Naomi go head to head again, and let me tell you, it never gets dull, not one bit. What I love about the Annie v Naomi in this episode, was that the roles were reversed- Annie wasn't the victim anymore, Naomi was, and by God did Naomi deserve it. Though Annie did go a little too far, I couldn't help but actually LOVE what Annie said to Naomi, and I am so pleased to hear Naomi finds out who Liam really slept with in the next episode, so I am waiting anxiously to see her beg for forgiveness.
.
Silver was making progress in this episode, and I was screaming with joy when she found out Naomi actually sent the sext of Annie, and I was hoping they wouldn't be friends anymore, but damn, by the end they were pals again. And wow, Adriana really pulled through and proves why she is a grower. She had temptation dangling in her face and she didn't fall for the bait, Navid is lucky to have someone like her.
.
Ugh, Dixon! I am really displeased with him, he always thinks everything is someone else's fault but his, and Silver really needs to get over him because she deserves so much better. I hope that woman Dixon is going out with will find out Dixon's real age, and hopefully she will slap him very hard.
.
Again, another wonderful episode, Season 2 is on a roll!

"90210" 2.02 Review

What I love most about 90210 is that it is simply brilliant for a teen drama. It has drama alright, and enough flair that could carry on for a few more seasons. I'll jump right in.
.
I always thought people could never be manipulated, as there have never been good examples, but this 90210 episode proved me wrong, and with amazing results. When Jen manipulated a doubtful Naomi to send the sext of Annie around school, I was sitting calling Jen all the names under the sun, and it was the best ever manipulation I've ever seen. When Annie begged Naomi to not send the text, it was in that moment of desperation I realize Annie is broken and will never be fixed. There will always be broken shards inside Annie, she has been through so much.
.
This episode showed us the old Silver, someone who sticks up for her friends no matter what. When Silver walked up to Annie at the end when everyone got the sext, it just made me realize how much I love Silver, what a truly amazing character. And Adriana too, I hope she finds out it was Naomi who sent it around, then Adriana will form alliance with Annie and Silver and then Naomi will be forced to go on her hands and knees and beg for forgiveness.
.
A great episode, perfect, this season is shaping up to be better than season 1 already.

"90210" 2.01- To New Beginnings Review


After watching the finale of Season 1 for "90210", I was left hooked. I really didn't expect that 90210 would fall into my good graces, but left with the cliffhanger of who Annie ran over made me want to watch the Season 2 premiere episode, and even the Annie v Naomi storyline is something I looked forward to for the coming season. I have a feeling Season 2 will be the best season yet, and the premiere episode for the second season proved exactly why I thought that.
.
Though Annie is hardly in the episode as much as Naomi or Silver or Adriana, I found her character getting a sudden change from a happy-go-lucky girl to a dark and guarded lonely girl who can't seem to trust anyone, and I loved watching that contrast. Even though Naomi is a huge bitch, she is definetly one of the best bitches I've ever seen and I can't imagine the show without her, she is an anchor for it, and makes the show a lot more interesting.
.
Silver was quite funny in the episode also, especially with Naomi's and Silver's first meeting of the new guy, Teddy, who I don't really like to begin with. Silver and Dixon's relationship is on the rocks thanks to him telling Dixon about Silver and Ethan, but then again, I don't like Dixon, so Silver could do a lot better anyway. Then we have Adriana, who wasn't as much of a main as the others last season, but she rose to prominense in this episode as she interacted more with more of the cast, and she is truly a beautiful rose. Navid is okay, I don't really have much of an opinion about him, all he seems to want is sex, and it's kind of getting boring for him.
.
Naomi was probably the best in this episode, she was definetly featured a lot more than the others, and the ending with her finding that naked video of Annie on some boy's phone will make a great next episode, I just hope Naomi finds out that Annie did not sleep with Liam before she goes too far.
.
Overall, amazing return episode, gets a perfect 10 from me. It definetly deserved higher ratings than it got, which it got only 2.56 million viewers, americans, tune in!!

"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.

"Lost" Season Two Review

I am currently watching Lost for the first time all the way through and I bought the DVDs of Seasons 1-4 a while ago and watched Season 1. Season 1 was great, the pilot was compelling and that was amazing to watch. But I have just finished watching Season 2, and while it is fresh in my head, I wanna write what I think down.

Season 1 ended really nicely with the Hatch and everything, and I'm loving all the storylines. The first thing I want to comment on is, if you haven't seen season 2 and you're planning to then I don't want to spoil it for you, is Shannon's death. I thought it was really clever to connect Shannon with the Tail Section Survivors (TSS) since their paths were inevitably going to cross. When Ana Lucia shot Shannon, I really did hate her for doing that as I did like Shannon, she wasn't my favourite but I liked seeing her there because she had such a strong character. So seeing Shannon die in Sayid's arms was quite painful to watch.

One of the few things I didn't like this season was Charlie. I've never really liked him to be honest, I just think he is too clingy and he gets on my nerves when he tries to be funny and just isn't. And then Michael, I haven't liked him either, I though his constant "Walt!" shouting was so annoying I felt sorry for Walt. I was happy when he left, and then he came back. And it was really shocking because he killed (don't read ahead if you don't want to be spoiled) Ana Lucia. And then Libby walked in who I really liked and was about to go on her date with Hurley and Michael shot her twice! I was fuming at him, I was just beginning to like Ana Lucia as well.

One episode that I thought was really good was Episode 21- "?". I just thought it was insanely clever the way they incorporated the aeroplane that Boone died in with the map seen in the Hatch and actually be part of the question mark seen in the map, and that is how Locke and Mr. Eko found a trapdoor leading to a secret room. I thought the writer's did an amazing job with the season.

And the finale was up to standard with season one's finale. I was so glad that Hurley, Jack, Kate and Sawyer find out that Michael is actually the one who killed Ana Lucia and Libby, I really wanted to hit Michael myself for leading them to the Others, he really grinded on me. But I thought it was an amazing story for an amazing season. I am currently watching Season 3 now, hopefully it will be just as good.
