Yeah, the voiceovers are boring. Erg. Like, give him a minute at the end of the episode, I'm down with that, but not when he keeps sticking his nose into every other scene.

It's interesting. I think Zoe/Donner is the most boring ship ever. It's so clichéd. Like Nadia said 'wounded good girl act' meets, like Jen said 'sexy tragic dude'. Erg. I'm much more interested in Jen/Ted (and I don't *think* it's only because of Christina, but of course I can't be certain), because there seems to be passion there, and that's far more interesting to me than furtive glances and angsty dreams.

I guess I'm just not that into Zoe. Laura is a great actress, and I care about her character, much like you care about a friend's little sister that you don't really have anything in common with, but I honestly am not that into her storyline.

Yes, also very much looking forward to next week! Yay!!

as I rambled on about the episode, I found the Jen/Ted developments to be sweet and made me go Jen/Rollie no ted/jen... Rollie's character, if you look at him over the three episodes, OMG what he has had to do - he's been there for everyone, he listened to Ajay go on about the apartment and all and helped him and here Rollie was going through the same thing and the last scene with Rollie and Jen's clothes... that made me cry a little too and how he came up to Jen knowing her paper, usng that first because he knew science was important to Jen and then came up with the pie and even more, he saw Ted wanted Jen and so he stepped back and went to check on Paula, a gentleman and all - so while I still want a Zoe/Jen :P I am liking how they develop the Jen/rollie... romance vs raw sex.... hehe

YES! OMG, you said it so well. I recognize everything you said, but I never actually analysed it that far. But yes! Rollie really is the sweetest guy, he really is the strongest one of them all. I just hope he doesn't keep too much of his upset from Jen, because their separation isn't something he should be going through alone. It's gonna be interesting to see how he and Jen finally got together, and see what happened to Jen and Ted. (Darn! I was supposed to be all about the femslash, and not actually care enough about the characters so their storylines would distract me from the femslash. But they're pretty good at this.)

Did you watch Men in Trees? Because the actor who plays Rollie played the sweetest guy on there too. His and Jane's was definitely the most interesting relationship on that show.

I have not seen that show - will have to check it out... and I do want to see how the whole Ted to Rollie transition transpired, especially since in a way, Rollie made the first move....

It's a sweet little show, and not something I expected to enjoy, but I tivo'd the first episode because Anne Heche is pretty and there was a catchy tune in the promos, and found to my surprise that it was a lovely little show. Quirky and silly a lot of the time, but warm, and with a good portrayal of the women (my biggest problem when it comes to TV). Ty Olsson has only a recurring role and doesn't appear in a lot of the episodes, but he plays a character not dissimilar to Rollie.
