is a lock on whatever it takes to keep me watching. Mostly. I was disappointed with a lot of what they did from Feb. through May, and I mean a LOT of what they did was lazy and subpar and just plain stupid (JMO), BUT I continued to watch bec. they seemed to be going somewhere and mostly just interested in cutting to the chase. Whatever that was.

In the meantime, Blair got a job. Viki got a job. Dorian came back. Joey came back. Kevin came back. Sarah came back. Kelly came back. Hmmm. I may not like the casting or a lot of the stories, but, guess what? MM and JG are bringing back characters who belong in Llanview, rather than creating their own, new, writer's residual hogs (and yes, I remember that some of these characters are their old WR Hogs). That alone is reason enough for me to make an effort, most days.

The other reaosn I'm liking Llanview? Pacing. FUCKING PACING! The stories move right along. Any day can be Friday. Any week can be sweeps. It all depends on what makes sense for the story. Even if the story itself is a little out there.
