I love when they push Christian ever more into womanhood. Breast cancer?! It was great that Christian told everyone it was specifically *breast* cancer, too. This storyline is nearly as good as the days when he was eating lo-cal cottage cheese, pining for Sean, and wishing for chocolate cake. I guess it's always fun to watch poor little beautiful Christian be sad. *Sigh* This is really making me wish (yet again) that they hadn't dumped the "Christian's got a crush on Sean" thing from a couple seasons back- Sean and Christian are the most realistic and compelling couple on T.V. Even though Sean's an a**.
Though, thank GOD he (ok, well, the writers anyway) got rid of Colleen. She was at the top of her game when she turned that other agent into a teddy bear- now that was creepy!- but ever since she's become kind of ho-hum. My favorite shot in the whole show was when she put her lipstick on using her reflection in the knife. Now THAT is the kind of tacky but apropos shot I tune in for!
Unlike Sean and Colleen, though, I liked Liz tonight- for ONCE. She's always so stuffy, but tonight she was so sweet (even if she didn't hug Christian when he obviously needed it) I couldn't help but like her. I guess now that the actress has lost a ton of weight, they're gonna give her more screen time, and make her Christian's female pal, instead of Julia.
Because tonight Julia was nowhere to be seen- another thank GOD! SOOOOO sick of her and her tired eyes.
Matt was his normal super ready to help self, stuck in tawdry storylines. I don't know about pre-med, though.... he seems more like the patient-centered nurse type to me. But guess it doesn't matter. And BTW, wish they hadn't dumped the half-sister. It's not like their "incest" was that big of a deal anyway- there are fertility clinics to catch any genetic diseases, anyway.
Though, even if it meant she had to get back together with Matt, I do wish there were more Kimber. Eh, actually maybe not, because I don't just want (meth addled, etc) Kimber around, I want more *HOT* Kimber. Kimber from back in the days when she and Christian were having angry, meaningful but ostensibly meaning*less* sex. Otherwise known as that character's heyday.
Speaking of Kimber/things that suck: I hate the "Sean's a cripple!" thing! 1. I have a friend in a wheelchair, and no one ever randomly asks to push her- nor does she have (heavy) handles on a chair she mostly moves around by her own muscle, because that would be silly. 2. Obviously the writers are just doing it until they can show a little paralytic sex, and then they'll move on. Which is boring in its obviousness. Since we know Sean won't be a gimp forever, why make him one for now? They already did this kind of thing with Christian and the amputee, anyway. Plus, Sean's a moper. It's fun to see Christian sad/stoic, and Sean happy/arrogant. Haven't the writers learned that by now?!
Recap to come tomorrow. Tonight was the viewing party :)
