Swingtown - Page 20

There was just a little too much going on at Bruce and Susan's house tonight!

And I enjoyed the little moment Janet and Tom had. I think her heart fluttered quite a bit...

On a side note, I thought Laurie looked pretty tonight when she was kind of hiding behind Doug. But when they showed her in the hallway with her parents getting yelled at, she looked painfully skinny and pale again.

And Roger...I think I figured out what seems off about him. I think the actor who plays him is very attractive, but his hair seems unnaturally dark. It looks like a bad dye job to cover the grey or what not (if he has any). The coloring just doesn't suit him.

So if the series were to continue on indefinitely the writing is pretty much on the wall for the daughter to move in with her boyfriend and cause some major conservative shift in the Susan/Bruce household....

From what I remember of Dexter is that CBS picked up a cleaned up version of it and then it moved to only SHO again. All I know is I got attached to it and it vanished off to a channel I don't get. lol

Back on topic (it is late and my ADHD is working overtime)....The children's story lines are still incredibly boring to me. I'm way more interested in the adult interpersonal relationships and how they are are growing and changing or not growing.

I really enjoyed the episode last night. It was so nice to see Janet's character coming out a little bit and being more risky. She figured out she doesn't like the lifestyle but at least she gave it a shot to see what Susan and Bruce were into.

Now see, I like them. Its like showing the son is the normal one in the family.. and how he reacts to the changes in his life with the family, becoming a teen, and his friend changing. I think they are doing very good with it.

As far as the neighbor's daughter.. i like that is shows how her mothers life effects her. Shes not a bad little actress, and i can feel what shes going thru.

The scene with Lori and Doug on the couch had me laughing my head off when he asked if she knew who the Prez of France was.. she answered him and he was like.. Thats so hot. Age/school/teacher issues aside.. thats My Kinda guy!

Did you see tonight's preview for next week? It suggests Roger makes a move to kiss Susan. Can't wait until next week!

Janet's character continues to fascinate me!

Janet is interesting that is for sure....I sure didn't expect them to say in the previews that Susan's marriage is falling apart...they seemed happy enough during the first couple of episodes especially after thier first (encounter)..lol..then after they got the video camera

Roger and Susan have, covertly, been after each other for a while now.

SavhLaney · 08-09-2008, 01:16 PM

Has Roger been pining after Susan the whole time they have been friends? Or is this a new development since the move?

I am so seriously going to miss this show. I really want to know how things are going to work out with everyone, including the kids. Man, I just hate network executives.
