US TV: Revenge

[reese**]

Grabe naman sa tagaaalll!!! I cant wait to go home and dl para makanood na!

[_gigles_]

I'm glad hindi nila pinahaba ang nangyari sa beach.

nakakatawa lang mga reaction ni Emily, her no reaction works for other instances pero on other instances parang hindi kapani-paniwala haha

I wonder whats inside Victoria's gift haha

[jiabanana]

^ eh how bout her reaction when Charlotte wants to be consoled sa swing. hahahaha awkward much.

[Heatherette]

Ang pangit nga ng reaction ni Emily haha

Medyo na-bored ako sa last episode. Nawala yung suspense niya tulad nung first couple of episodes.

[reese**]

parang exciting lang yung last 2 minutes nung na reveal ang totoong pumatay. but the rest of the episode - blah.

[izzie7]

Dapat ba walang emotions palagi yung reaction niya? Or pilit na reaction pag kelangan? Dahil out to get revenge nga siya? Ang boring nga ng last episode. Ano kayang ginawa ni mr. Takeda kay amanda? Hindi na siguro makikita pa si amanda

[_gigles_]

^baka trinatrain niya or he is brainwashing her? haha

minsan tama yung reaction niya sa scene pero like yung they first thought si Daniel yung nabaril or when the judge didnt grant Daniel bail syempre as a fiance kelangan mukha niyang affected kaya lang parang ewan lang yung reaction niya haha

[izzie7]

^actually halatang halata na wala siyang paki kay daniel based sa reactions niya, hindi ko lang alam kung good thing ba yun or bad thing haha!

[jamie_0117]

hay, why am i not watching this? hehe. habulin ko to

[Heatherette]

Akalain mo yun, Sammy is old na talaga at mamamatay na haha Ni hindi nga pinakita na may sakit yung aso eh.

[jamie_0117]

^may episode today? bakit wala ako makita!

[Heatherette]

^Meron hehe

Si Nolan kawawa. I hope walang nangyari sa kanya sa finale next week kasi walang pinakita dun sa promo.

[_gigles_]

^si Nolan kasi nag-cost cutting pa at hindi na itinuloy ang paghire ng bodyguard. Pero sana walang mangyari sa kanya kawawa din si Emily wala na siya kakampi, ang resourceful din ni Nolan eh.

grabe sobrang heartbreaking yung scene with Sammi. I can feel their heartbreak, ang sakit talaga mawalan ng pet.

[blackgreen]

Shocks! Sana walang masamang mangyari kay Nolan. Nakakainis naman bakit andun si Ashley!!

[Heatherette]

Si Ashley hardcore to the max. Lahat alam gawin haha

[_gigles_]

nakakatuwa lang halos lahat ng character dito may each of their own end game, walang innocent na mabait, which I find very interesting.

[twelve5]

Sometimes i find this show too ridiculous. Really, just the wig is enough disguise?

And the flashback to 2001 (2003?) episode, hairdo lang nag-iba. Nothing really distinct. Eto kasi ang problema sa one-hour series na 22-24 episodes ang kelangan gawan ng kwento. Originally, when Revenge wasn't sure it was gonna get picked up, the stories were tighter. Kaya ang ganda ng momentum nung una diba?

Then the network ordered for 13 episodes, dati kasi 8 lang. Then, humaba yung order for 23 (?) na. The writers for this show had to stretch their creative minds to fulfill that. Kaya nawala ng matagal ang Revenge because they needed to go in production and deliver 23 episodes.

Look at LOST. Look at every other drama series na mahaba (Gossip Girl, comes to mind). Then compare it to a cable series na 13 episodes lang, sometimes 16, mahaba na yung 16. Kasi, the writers for cable already know in one year ano ang beginning, middle at end ng kwento for one season. Sa network TV, hindi ganun, and minsan may notes/singit pa from the network bosses anong dapat idagdag sa script. Taas lang nga kasi sweldo sa network TV kesa sa cable, kaya kahit magulo systema for a writer, ka-ching$$$ naman kasi.

[twelve5]

So ganun pala, Mindy. Thanks for the explanation. 

At the beginning nga medyo fast paced ang story. Yung G sa revenge is parang 8 diba. And during the earlier episodes, parang in each episode 1 is eliminated and she would mark that person's pic with an X pa nga. I thought to myself, ayus, parang in each or every other episode may mamamatay... Tapos nyek biglang bumagal ang story! 

Kundi lang sa obsessive tendencies ko matagal ko na sanang stop panuorin ito eh. LOST ata nag trigger sakin nito.

papatayin si nolan nung white hair guy. :-( yun pinakita sa trailer for wednesday.
