Additional Comments: Does Josh even care what's happened to his father's company? Why don't they bring SHayne in to compete with Bill for control? And recast Philip? The show is mostly a bore, with little touches now and then. And all the other people in town must have been killed or something by a gas explosion. Unless our characters are all dead and just haunting the town.

Message: I find the lack of mention of the church or Rev. Lewis to be a refreshing change for the better! There are times, like this, when simply dropping a bad storyline is better than trying to 'fix it' or do some gimmicky, cheezy manipulation to 'make things right'.
IMO, the characters just need to move on & never mention that part of their lives again.

Well, I was sick this week and stuck in bed so I actually watched 3 episodes in a row. And I'm sorry but it's still badly written and incredibly boring. In the past, I would have been delighted to be stuck in bed watching GL. It would have been the high point of my sick day. But I was bored out of my mind. (And that awful music that still drones through every scene made me even more nauseated.)
The characters do LOOK a lot better than they did when they first started the format. Some of the outdoor shots are quite pretty. But the indoor shots like Harley's/Alan's house and that doublewide trailer that's supposed to be Cross Creek are still incredibly claustrophobic and give the show a very small, very mean, very cheap feel.

Message: Personally, I'm enjoying GL right now more than I have in months. The only fly in the ointment to me is Josh. He's ruined and Reva shouldn't ever demean herself by going back to him again. He's so boring and Jeffrey is so much fun.

Message: OK, what show are you watching, or not watching and just trashing? On Thursday's show, there was Josh in his church at the pulpit putting on his collar.

Message: The show makes absolutely no sense, the camera work is ludicrous, the story lines are so mixed up you don't know what is going on, Alan a psychic, Beth going to law school,Bill can't speak a coherent sentence, Remy and AC are living in a closet, give me a break.
