fan_eluneFirst off, after having watched the whole of season 2 of Boomtown (all six episodes, yessir), it's official, it sucks. I don't know what happened, maybe the network was putting the pressure on them because they didn't have a good enough audience and so they had to make it less original, but hell. Suddenly it became... just like any other show. They still made the most of Neal McDonough's amazing acting skills, for instance, but his character was not the same. The writing itself absolutely sucked! I know, I'm being harsh, but hell I'm feeling harsh. After such a first season, how can you drop to something so common-place? The very thing that was the core of this show, the split-up narration with scenes that sometimes did not gain their meaning until the very end of the episode when we got the final piece of the puzzle... gone! The complexity of the characters, their never-that-simple relationships, or on the contrary their decidedly straight-forward and touching and endearing interactions... adieu! I wish they hadn't got a second season. Because the way the first one ended, with those three episodes focused on Fearless, David and Joel... brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. They should have ended it on that.
That said, Joey has never seen The NeverEnding Story. Is it just me, or should no child be allowed to grow up without having seen the NeverEnding Story?
"The video arcade is down the street. Here we just sell small rectangular objects. They're called books. They require a little effort on your part, and make no bee-bee-bee-bee-beeps. On your way please."
