Happy December! Wow, I said it. This month may prove to be a good one on the current show. We'll see!
What really interested me today in watching this was that I had another window open with Todd and Moose, and realized HOW MUCH that character had evolved and developed over the few years he was created. It's amazing to have seen that and to be able to look at it now, critically, with an educated eye. The times had changed but the work was always the same - great.
Powell finishes his call to Kevin and they finally figure out that something is not quite right. Kevin decides they have to find him. I actually jumped when Milton Bittlecomb came in! You know my theory on him. Anyway, the scene progresses with an interruption for Powell, but soon after, he is well on his way to the end. I just LOVE how this all fits together, and that Milton figures it all out and calls for help. So great. Small details, just as always, OLTL fits it all together. I think it's a great step including Milton on the action. He was a day player and was better than some of the main people today.
Powell's flashbacks to the Spring Fling are also very effective. Not having seen it for a few years, and when watching the show live back then, not having seen it in a number of months, it lets you remember what happened and how terrible it was, and how Powell KNEW what he was doing was wrong and how Marty had appealed to him for help. Quite powerful stuff. Love the next set of episodes a lot.
FAIL: Nothing, everyone's right on, except maybe Nora who should really have determined this was going down before this stage of the game. But, the acting is dead on for everyone here.
Sound off, guys. The real intent of TRTM is for us to watch these clips and share our thoughts about them! It's getting lonely at the top! Join in!
