Anne Heche is also very annoying. I do like that it is in Alaska. I'm a big fan of Alaska. But overall, okay. Then again, I'm pretty easy to please.

ETA: Yeah, no idea why it was picked up. It has no buzz or acclaim or a chance for widespread audience appeal.]]> Wed, 13 Sep 2006 00:17:09 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3145840 Scheduling and Ratings: Seeing the Forest for the Trees http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3152754 Fri, 06 Apr 2007 07:33:27 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3152754 Men In Trees PHed, New Discussion Link http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3160953 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/in...view=getnewpost]]> Wed, 24 Oct 2007 16:45:52 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3160953 SPOILER Discussion http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3155235
Anyway, New Zealand is showing the last few episodes of the first season, starting from next Monday night (NZ time - about early Sunday morning in the States), so unless there are strong objections, I'm happy to provide details!

From our local tv guide: Marin gets lost in the woods and Jack finds her.

From what I can recall of the preview last night (was a bit overexcited that it wasn't the final, so wasn't paying enough attention!): Lynn tells Jack he doesn't love her (either enough or as much as he used to) and Sheriff and her boss are together again.]]> Mon, 18 Jun 2007 22:51:26 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3155235 <![CDATA[2-1: "A Tree Goes In Elmo" 2001.10.12]]> http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3159675 rules, FAQ, and make sure you have read through the announcement thread for this forum.

Episode 2-1: "A Tree Goes In Elmo," from TV Guide:

An Arctic cyclone is bearing down on Elmo as the second season begins, and everyone gathers at the Chieftain to ride it out---except for Marin and Cash, who are off on a mountain seeking the advice of a “soul healer.” Meanwhile, Patrick and Annie find out things they didn't know about each other, and Mai discovers something she didn't know about Buzz; Sara's ex wants sole custody of Matty, so Ben offers to lend her money for a lawyer; and Dick (Currie Graham) has digestive woes.

The first is fairly minor: the weather. I've never been to Alaska, but I'm pretty sure that even a "heat wave" up there doesn't mean quite the levels of heat as it does in the lower 48 states. So why is Marin, who's a New Yorker, reacting so strongly to the heat (light clothes, sweating, etc.)? She couldn't have acclimated quite that fast! Also, we rarely see snow or bad weather...

The second issue wouldn't make for good television, so I can see why it's being done this way. But if Jack and Lynn were together for most of their lives and had only broken up four months before Marin arrived, would Jack really be ready to get into a serious relationship with Marin? I can see that he might think he was (rebound and all that). The same goes for Marin, too; she was about to get married! In light of this, Jack trying to make things work with Lynn makes sense.

Plus, if Lynn grew up in Elmo, wouldn't we have heard about her from some of the other residents? After all, she had other friends there, and it's likely she would have kept in touch with them; in fact, I'm surprised that no one gave Marin the whole Jack-Lynn story.]]> Fri, 06 Apr 2007 12:45:22 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3152780 ACTOR: Anne Heche http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3152746
Anne Heche's filmography

I'm not exactly a fan, but at the same time she's probably the main reason I started to watch the show. She has a unique screen presence, very interesting and charismatic; I've enjoyed her work on the show a lot and was impressed by her work in films like Wag the Dog.
