Stone really is two-faced. I hope he will be brought down a peg or two.

Steve and Jennifer kind of remind me of Casey and Henri of Home and Away 2012.

You mean in the new 7pm episodes?

There are a lot more than just freeze-frames missing from the current ones, like we don't have opening or closing titles anymore, plus the movie-like "underscores" are total crap.

Mike Perjanik's underscores are more 'movie-like' than the 2012 music Imo I would have thought the natural progression for the show would have been to actually commission some orchestra type underscores for the show and really give it a cinematic feel, but to me they've gone backwards with the music these days - I've also noticed that they pretty much don't use any melodic piano music any more its all guitar riffs.

Loved it when Nicole Dickson fluffed her lines in the Fisher kitchen with Craig Mclachlan, but he made a joke of it in the scene and they carried on with the rest of the scene.

^Haha, yes I re watched that scene a few times, it was funny. Nicole and Craig have good on screen chemistry, very natural.

Speaking of... Bobby could do better than Jeff Imo. Yes he seems like a nice guy, but I think he's too 'comfortable' for her and I could see her getting bored easily. I enjoyed Friday's episode particularly - there were some awkward moments though. I felt sorry for Bobby.

We are now in the centre of the 1990 dip. This is the weakest the show had been since the beginning. Some people disagree so there must still be a lot of good in the show. There are some nice storylines coming up later in the year, but it not back in full flow, in my opinion, until a quarter of the way through 1991.

I just pray we get there.

I regret this slightly as i am really enjoying the steven jennifer story.

Haha that was great, Craig McLachlan is fantastic, his scenes always crack me up.

I didn't really feel sorry for Bobby. I think she needed to hear what Jeff said to her. I understand that she is confused and feeling rushed into things (especially by Don) but Jeff deserves to know where he stands without being led on (end of Thursday's ep) or treated badly either.

I feel sorry for Bobby.

I think she feels pressured into having feelings for Jeff and is really trying. But she just doesn't feel any sparks.

Jeff is pretty stupid not to know that Bobby doesn't fancy him.
