So, this is the first of the last five episodes. Will anything exciting even happen? Or will ryan bake some cookies?

Drop

An okay episode, glad the comic book, ahem Graphic Novel, is back on track. Ryan's brother is pretty much a boring character and a retread. Thumbs down to Ryan and Marissa as a couple, they should just stop it before it it goes any further. Mischa really is wooden.

Next looks interesting, hopefully not a stupid over the top episode, though.

Patman

That was a fluffy episode, to say the least. Not much of consequence happened.

I enjoyed Marissa's slinky dress, though.

Nice egg.

Geofferson

Although nothing really happened, I thought this was a very fun episode. Loved the opening action star banter in the kitchen..."It's Stallone's best work since Over the Top."

Also, I really enjoyed the Risky Business reference...especially the subtle music. (I should have watched the credits to see if Tangerine Dream had a guest spot. )

Daniel-A

Oh yeah that music was as subtle as it gets.

Boring episode. Guess they couldn't get 2 good ones in a row.

MrX

I thought it was good wnenever they ripped on Ryan about Marissa. Other then that a pretty bland episode.

B.A.

I liked when Seth was giving Ryan shit at school, then Marissa shows up and the situation immediately gets awkward. Ryan leaves and shoves Seth into his locker.

I liked the episode. Mischa didn't nerve me for only the second time EVER. Her, um, dress was nice - yeah that's it. Ryan threw a punch for the second consecutive episode. Sandy was able to fuck w/ the Newpsies. And Summer was Summer.

Was this the first appearance of Kim Oja on the show? I didn't watch it, but recognized her in the preview bidding from Son of the Beach.

Red Dog

No - she's been around before as one of the 'Newpsies.' Mostly last year.

I missed Julie.

Hmmmm. It seems as if Marissa has been cured of her Lesbianism. What a cop out that whole storyline was. It's over after sweeps and she's headed back to Ryan. Convenient!

I thought last nights show was ok. At first I thought Ryan's brother had intigrated himself into the family too soon but sure enough he had to do something wrong before the end of the episode. Is he a regular now or just stopping by like all the other new characters this season?

Why did Billy Cambell even agree to do the show. He has nothing significant to do. Would have been nice if Seth and Zach gave a little nod to Rocketeer like they did to Peter Gallagher's Summer Lovers.
