Where’s a park bench when you need one?

Posted in Uncategorized at 6:58 AM by Blue

I’ve not been a big fan of RC’s constant re-doing and re-telling of stories.  Mostly because he never seemed to get around to retelling a story that I actually liked with characters I wanted to see the story re-told with.

Yesterday (3/25) I think I finally saw one I liked and remember well.  After Cris returned from the dead (or another failed pilot season, not sure which) Natalie and John sat down and had a talk on a park bench about staying away from one another that immediately came to mind when I watched yesterday’s show.  Two people who’s very being longed to be together, yet once again things, circumstances, other people got in their way.  While I loved those scenes back in 2004 I found yesterdays so much more powerful.  These two have grown as characters, as actors, as people very comfortable in one another’s company.

Not sure how we’re going to get through the pregnancy from hell, but I guess we can always go back to yesterday’s clips and remind ourselves exactly what we stand to gain in the end.  One of these days we won’t meet at a park bench to say goodbye, but to say hello.  Hopefully sooner, rather than later.

Feeling Something

Posted in Uncategorized at 2:06 PM by Blue

I’m not really sure what I can say about today’s episode that you all aren’t thinking.
Natalie’s realization that it wasn’t her dead husband she was talking to, kissing, dreaming about and her embarrassment about it, when she realized it wasn’t. John trying to play it cool as if he did all of this for her, to give her a reason to come out of whatever stupor it was that she was in, but having to finally admit that it wasn’t exactly a sacrifice to play along.

And in the end an admission, one that a lot of us suspected all along even when TPTB did everything in their power to try and make us think that the two barely knew one another.

The saga continues, the ride won’t be easy, but a day like today gives me all of the strength I need to get through this bumpy ride. Because like John, I’m feeling something for this show again.

Well wasn’t today just like a punch in the gut…I mean that in the best possible way of course..

How perfect is it to to have John as the one longing here?? To have to see that Natalie has truly moved on and given that love..the love that use to be his…to another..Now don’t get me wrong I love John..but he needs this..it will do him good;)..not to mention it gave Michael a chance to shine…and boy did he.

The flashback choices were sublime…each hit highlighting that thing that just makes these two work…in all the ways they do..just sublime..

Now bring on the lucid Natalie…cuz the fun is just getting started…

I Think I Love You…..
