Everwood

[bjackm]

Okay, I can't be the only person here who absolutely loves this show, can I?

This thread is for people to discuss recent episodes, possible future plots, and which kind of shipper they are (as in Everwood ship, not HP :p ).

Or the all important argument, how in the heck do you spell Ephram, Delia, and Layney?

[lanifiel]

Everwood? Could you give us a few links so we might see what you are talking about, please?

[stellaluna]

Yes Lani, I have no clue either.

[majo]

I like Everwood.
I haven't been able to watch it in a long time though, I think they changed when it's on, and now I'm never home. :( My mom and sister and I all like it.

As far as the spelling of the names goes...I have no clue :)

[bjackm]

Everwood is a show on the WB. Here's a plot synopsis for the first episode:

Andrew Brown's (Treat Williams, Hollywood Ending, The Late Shift) own life changed forever the day his loving wife died. Up until then, he was a world-renowned neurosurgeon whose career always overshadowed his obligations as a parent. Now faced with the daunting task of raising his two kids, 9-year-old Delia (Vivien Cardone, A Beautiful Mind) and 15-year-old Ephram (Gregory Smith, The Patriot) by himself, Andrew trades in the New York skyline for the breathtaking vistas of the Rockies to settle in Everwood.

While both kids are deeply affected by the loss of their mother, little Delia adjusts quickly to her new surroundings - and the promise of her own horse - all the while keeping a watchful eye on the tumultuous relationship between her father and brother. But the sudden shift in everything he has ever known is hardest on Ephram, who resents all the years his father lavished on his career at the expense of his family.

When Andrew opens a free clinic for the citizens of Everwood, popular opinion is that he has lost his mind, but that doesn't stop one local character, Edna (Debra Mooney, Tootsie), from quickly applying for a job as his nurse and office manager. The person most disturbed by Dr. Brown's new clinic is Edna's son and the only other doctor in town, Dr. Harold Abbott (Tom Amandes, television's The Untouchables), who quickly forbids his children, 15-year-old Amy (Emily VanCamp, GloryDays) (http://i.cnn.net/v5cache/THEWB/Images/Dynamic/i33/EW-EVanCamp-GL-11_2x3_240.jpg) and 17-year-old Bright (newcomer Chris Pratt) to have anything to do with the Brown family. With the school bus driver, Mr. Irv (John Beasley, The Apostle) keeping watch over it all, traditions are changing overnight for the citizens of Everwood. What none of them understand is that the ripple effect of one woman's death can bring a lot of change - and a lot of good - not only to the people she loved, but to people she never met.

Ephram, Delia, and Lainey. Does that help? ;)
~~~
Now, I should have known you would start this thread. There was a comment from you that Smallville had a bit of a lame plot line. Don't get me wrong because I love Everwood but this reminds me of a soap opera. Before you attack think about it: Boy (Colin) falls into coma and girlfriend (Amy) still carries her love for him no matter what. New boy with a bad-boy attitude (Ephram) shows up and suddenly her eyes seem to wander. But oh-no she is a "good girl" and would never be unfaithful to Colin--even if he is practically a stiff. Heh, I guess that doesn't count the two kisses (one she stole). Then her coma boyfriend wakes up and suddenly she doesn't even know Ephram but yet Colin (who "maraciously" seems to have almost no problems after being in a coma and having a part of his skull lodges into his brain...which Ephram's dad removed) befriends him because Colin was one of the few people who didn't expect Colin to be a certain way. Soon Colin realizes there was something going on with Amy and Ephram but of course she says that is all in the past and Colin lets it go. Meanwhile Ephram falls for a "bad girl" type (Colin's sister) Lainey and Amy seems a tad jealous. She gets over it though (it must have helped that Ephram and Lainey are splitsville now). Oh, and then a shocker hits...we learn that Colin had planned on breaking up with Amy before he slipped into a coma (oh and it was Amy's brother who wrecked the vehicle to put Colin in that coma). See, Amy had told Colin she loved him the day before and Colin didn't say squat. He seemed like a real jerk in the past to me. Does anyone see a soap opera feeling to all this? I don't care, I still love it and so does my friends Melissa and Aaron.

So, anyone want Ephram with Amy? I personally did in the beginning but I think she needs to hear the truth about Colin planning on breaking up with her first. She should be hurt for all the pain she caused that boy. And in the end...I don't even know if she deserves him.

If you want more details I believe you can go to wb.com

[bjackm]

I put an edit into my second post of the thread, but it apparently didn't take. I did say that the plot is very much that of a soap opera, but the dialogue and acting is so good, that I can overlook it. What makes me love this show so much is that I identify so heavily with Ephram.

I also heard in an interview that the main writter of the series found that Everwood is attracting a different audience than they originally expected. At first, the show was geared as a teenage soap opera, much like Dawson's Creek, but now their trying to get rid of all the old plots and implement newer, more realistic, ones.

[triki1988]

Ok, Ephram (Gregory Smith) is insultingly hot. I mean, wow..he hasn't changed much since Small Soldiers. As for his little lover, some people say I look like her, but I'm a brunette. I really feel like hitting people when they tell me that.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

Hi!

I did a search, and as far as I could see there was no thread on Everwood yet, so... here we are!

Some questions:

1. Do you think Colin survived his surgery?
2. Are you an Amy/Ephram shipper, an Amy/Colin shipper, an Ephram/Laynie shipper, or something different?
3. Would you like to see Dr. Brown find love? If so, with whom? Dr. Trott (the traveling pyscologist)? Nina (his next door neighbor)?
4. What's your favorite part of the show? Seeing Dr. Brown at work? Ephram's love life?
5. Your favorite character?

[xlupin_loverx]

Ooh, Everwood. I was considering starting a thread about this last week but never got around to it. I love this show. It's so wonderfully soap opera-y. But the writing is good and the acting is very good, so I just love it. :)

Okay, now to answer those questions:
1. Do you think Colin survived his surgery? I've got really mixed feelings on this. Part of me just wants him to go away, but then I feel evil. Plus I'd like him to get better, THEN go away, lol.
2. Are you an Amy/Ephram shipper, an Amy/Colin shipper, an Ephram/Laynie shipper, or something different? Hm, I'd really like Ephram to end up with Amy, but then a whole plot line would be resolved and have no where to go apart from them getting into a fight and breaking up. I'd kinda like Ephram to meet someone new and do that for a while. Then maybe he and Amy could date.
3. Would you like to see Dr. Brown find love? If so, with whom? Dr. Trott (the traveling pyscologist)? Nina (his next door neighbor)? I think he and Nina would be great. They just seem so perfect for each other.
4. What's your favorite part of the show? Seeing Dr. Brown at work? Ephram's love life? All of it, really. It's just great. Edna's a lot of fun though, I like bits she's in. But yeah, all of it.
5. Your favorite character? Ephram. I just like him a whole lot. Plus I've been a fan of Gregory Smith since Harriet the Spy, so he's just great to watch. Andy is pretty great too, you gotta love Treat Williams. ^_^

[Hufflepuffy]

I love, love, love, love Everwood. Especially Gregory Smith, he is soo gorgeous. He was in American Outlaws with Colin Farrell, also. He dies in that movie, too, just like in The Patriot. So sad. :( He looks so much younger than he is, doesn't he? I would have never guessed he was 19. And my name is Amy (albeit spelled Aimee) so that makes it even more awesome.


1. Do you think Colin survived his surgery?
I'm undecided. I'm not a huge fan of Colin, but if he doesn't survive, there will be a lot less for Amy and Ephram to argue about. Which is a lot of the plot.
2. Are you an Amy/Ephram shipper, an Amy/Colin shipper, an Ephram/Laynie shipper, or something different?
Until recently I was Amy/Ephram, but then she started acting like a real witch, so I'm not sure. Now I'm not even really sure if she did like him in the first place, or if she was trying to get his dad to help Colin. I kinda like Laynie, she seems more Ephram's type, but he really does love Amy.
3. Would you like to see Dr. Brown find love? If so, with whom? Dr. Trott (the traveling pyscologist)? Nina (his next door neighbor)?
Nina! That would be so cute. And it's set up so well, too... her and her husband having problems, he misses his wife.. they both need some comforting. ;) If it doesn't happen, I'll be seriously surprised.
4. What's your favorite part of the show? Seeing Dr. Brown at work? Ephram's love life?
Ephram's love life. No doubt.
5. Your favorite character?
Ephram, I love him. He's all angry at his Dad and wears a lot of black, which appeals to my bad boy kinda thing, but then he is so sweet with Delia, which is just "awwww". He's just my type of guy.

Also, if the show wasn't so good, it would be really cheesy. I think that makes sense. yeah

[Hufflepuffy]

Has anyone caught the new season yet? They killed Colin. For some odd reason, that makes me happy :)

[jasper]

What are they going to do without Colin? The plot revolved around him. Now are they just going to revolve around his memory. yuk.

[Lilia Agri]

The plot did not revolve around Colin. it revolved around the fact that Colin was in the way of a romance between Epram and Amy. Anyway, it would have been redundant if they had had another whole season of Colin recovering from surgery. He had to go. He was superfluous. He was cute, though, so it is a shame.

Did anyone else think it was hilarious in the first episode when E's boss, the pool guy, asked him, "Who are you? Why are you so white? Go stand in the sun!"

[FoolOnTheHill]

Heh... My mom loves this show. I watched the first episode of the season with her, but now I'm stuck without t.v. so I haven't seen it since. It seems good though. I just want to know when he's going to get the girl. Yep.

The guy who plays Ephram's dad used to date my moms best friend. :D

[boxingkitty]

I love Everwood! And I fully agree with whoever said Gregory Smith (Ephram) is hot. I think he's a Canuck. :) My friend and I had a convo yesterday about how Canadian guys are cuter than Americans in the celebrity world, lol..but I'm digressing.
I used to be an Amy/Ephram shipper, only now with the way she's behaving and Colin's death still hanging over the town, it might not happen for a long time or at all. I cried during the season premiere, but I pretty much expected Colin to die. Did anyone else? The expression on Dr. Brown's face last season clearly showed something went wrong. I figured either Colin died or he would end up with serious hindrances and, really, what could the series do with a vegetable for a character?

[Hufflepuffy]

Did anyone else think it was hilarious in the first episode when E's boss, the pool guy, asked him, "Who are you? Why are you so white? Go stand in the sun!"

"Actually, this is tan for me, I have really fair skin" I loved that! I really like Ephram so far this season, not nearly so angry about everything. I guess Amy took over that role.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

Did anyone see the latest episode where Delia said that the food that Linda Abbott made tasted like ****? I thought that was hilarious; I was laughing harder than Ephram.

[Hufflepuffy]

That was great! Just fantastic, and I loved Ephram's reaction. I'm liking Ephram more and more this season, and did you see the preview for Monday? He's going to kiss the babysitter!

[dobby_rocks]

Great show one of the few that I watch weekly, well this Monday I didn’t see it but I will be catching it tomorrow on the wb easy view

Anyone who hasn’t seen the show its defiantly a show worth checking out it airs Monday @ 8pm cent and Sundays a repeat of the previous Mondays show at 6pm ct


Some of my favorite scenes are b.t Dr. Brown and Dr. Abbot, they are just so funny , there are a lot of good actor on the show.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

That was great! Just fantastic, and I loved Ephram's reaction. I'm liking Ephram more and more this season, and did you see the preview for Monday? He's going to kiss the babysitter!


I was mad when I saw that. I never liked that stupid Madison. Okay, I shouldn't be mad because the kiss will probably be used as a wake-up call for Amy, but we'll just have to see...

[Hufflepuffy]

Nah, I like her. Tells Ephram how it is. And I'm kinda bored with the Ephram/Amy thing. She's got too many issues right now, but I hope they get together eventually.

[Pegasus]

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since anyone has talked about Everwood! So why's the Gilmore thread so popular? My computer freezes every time I get onto thewb.com, so I have hopes of resurrecting this thread.
Did anyone watch the last three episodes? Interesting--everyone I wanted to break up did, but the writing/acting was so good that it made me sad when it actually happened! Do you think Amy and Ephram might actually make it work this time?

[jasper]

The Gilmore thread is so popular because I can't shut up about it.

I think Everwood could be called Whateverwood. For a while there it seemed like all they showed was "breaking up with the baby sitter" every week.

[Pegasus]

Oh, but it's finally going somewhere! And you have to admit that Gilmore Girls is a little slower this year, and they seem to be bringing in old characters just to liven it up a bit.

[jasper]

I'm not admitting that about Gilmore Girls!

But I am glad they got past all the breaking up with Madison episodes. The one where he re-hired the babysitter was one too many at least.

[Pegasus]

Did anyone watch last night's episode? I love how everything is turning out (so far) the way I wanted it to! Now if Dr. Brown and Nina can finally figure out that they're perfect for each other...Of course, based on the jealousy going on between Linda and Nina, I'm guessing Dr. Brown is the only clueless one...just as clueless as Ephram. From the "sneak peek," though, it looks like Ephram will make up for it next week.

[Hufflepuffy]

It does look like Ephram and Amy will finally get together! I didn't think that there was too much Ephram/Madison drama, and the acting and writing was really superb. At the begining of this season, I really didn't want Ephram and Amy to get together, because I thought she was being a beyotch to everyone, but now that's she's dumped her crackhead boyfriend, and moved back in with her parents, I'm liking her again.

I thought monday's episode was great, Ephram being so clueless, becuase guys are actually like that! Can't get any hints... can't wait to see next weeks episode.

I'm just waiting for an Everwood dvd set :)

[Pegasus]

There is another Everwood fan here! Thank you! I always want so badly to talk to someone after an eventful episode, and my crashing computer doesn't like the WB site.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

I thought monday's episode was great, Ephram being so clueless, becuase guys are actually like that! Can't get any hints... can't wait to see next weeks episode.

Did you see the look on his face when Bright told him about Amy? :eyebrows:

I was sad that Linda left. I really liked her. I wonder how often they're going to bring her back on the show for guest appearances?

[Pegasus]

That look was great. I'm glad they showed that sneak peek of Ephram leaning in to kiss her. Made my night.
My problems with Linda: Linda's not ready to be a mom. Linda is a woman with a chronic illness, and the kids have already lost a mother. Not to mention, as Ephram said, it's extremely unsafe for Dr. Brown to have a physical relationship with her. (Usually it's a matter of getting pregnant--this time it's a matter of a deadly disease.) Dr. Brown belongs with Nina. He wasn't ready for a relationship with her before. He learned some crucial things from his relationship with Linda, and now it's time to move on.

[swishandflick]

I love Everwood! I can't wait for Amy and Ephram to get together. The only thing that I'm concerned about (for the show as a whole) is what they are planning to do when the students go to college. I suppose next year Brite is going to be a towny, but I seriously doubt that Amy and Ephram would end up going to college together. Doesn't Ephram want to go to a music conservatory? I guess the only way to settle this would be for them to have a relationship all next season (yay!) and then at the end have a big battle over where to go to school which ends in them reconciling and Ephram deciding that 'Amy is the music in my life' but hopefully not as cheesy :).
'

[Pegasus]

Isn't Bright a year older than Amy and Ephram? I thought that they were juniors, at the most. Ephram did just get his driver's license.
Edit: Gilmore Girls transitioned okay.

[Hufflepuffy]

Oh I hope they can make the transition to college OK. I'm not sure how they'll do it, though. Maybe they'll all take a year off or something, or maybe they'll all go to a big state university, and ephram can study music there or something...

[Pegasus]

He's still got at least a year left of high school (I'm still thinking it's two, due to the driver's license), and Bright's not going anywhere, so we don't have to worry about that for awhile.

[swishandflick]

All I could say throughout this nights episode was...
Grrr..kiss her! Kiss her! Yes! No...no...wait...Amy whats wrong? NoooooO!!
Fairly suspenseful. The previews looked very troubling
If Madison is going to have an abortion, she seriously needs to tell Ephram. Andy will never forgive himself if he prevents her from telling him

[Hufflepuffy]

tonight's episode was awful! I can't believe Amy freaked like that. I was all 'what the hell?' me and my sister were yelling at her. Next week's episode looks crazy!

[jasper]

The previews looked very troubling
If Madison is going to have an abortion, she seriously needs to tell Ephram. Andy will never forgive himself if he prevents her from telling him

no
That's got to turn out to be something else. No way would Madison be asking the would-be grandfather for an abortion even if he's the only doctor in town.

[swishandflick]

I really hope that isn't it, but this is a soap opera type story so it could happen. Maybe Madison has a disease, but if she does I would think Andy would want her to tell him. Or maybe Madison just can't get over Ephram, in which case she does need to stay away because I really hope Ephram and Amy get together by next episode.

[Pegasus]

They misled us enough with last week's teaser that I'm just going to wait and see what happens! I hate it when WB plays with my head!

[mynameisrene]

I absolutely LOVE Everwood! I watch it all the time, and I'm so ticked that the season is over and they left you hanging AGAIN! At least it's a happy ending this time, though. Here's a question: What did you think of the ending?

[Pegasus]

I'm dismayed at the way Dr. Brown handled things with Madison, but I'm glad Ephram and Amy are finally together and the redhead is gone. Now Andy just needs to make things work with Nina.

[PLIMPY]

I admit, I really like Everwood too (even if it is a bit like a soap opera), it is one of the shows that I try to watch every week, not that it is all that difficult to do with it coming on Easyview! I agree that Andy can finally wake up and get together with Nina, they already seem like a little family. I think that Andy and Dr. Abbott working together next year should be fairly entertaining, particularly since his mother is still Andy's nurse. I was glad that ephram decided to go to Julliard, two months apart is not enough of a reason for him to ruin his career,and her coming with him seemed like the obvious solution. With the whole Madison thing, does Andy really think that Ephram will never find out? If she has the baby, it would be too hard for him to count backwards to figure out that it was his child. I also think that it is unfair to put all of that on Madison, it is a big decision either way, and Andy is really just putting more on her, but it seems to be a good way to add suspense, so hey whatever it takes.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

I absolutely LOVE Everwood! I watch it all the time, and I'm so ticked that the season is over and they left you hanging AGAIN! At least it's a happy ending this time, though. Here's a question: What did you think of the ending?

I was ecstatic that Amy and Ephram are FINALLY together. I've been waiting for that for two seasons! I liked how she went to New York with him for ten days - that was sweet.

I was a little worried about the whole situation with Madison - is she keeping the baby? Is she having an abortion? What's going on? What will happen when Ephram finds out? How will it effect his relationship with Amy?

And as for those dreams Andy's... do you think they mean that he is finally ready to truly accept Julia's death and move on? My conclusions were that his subconscious mind was telling him that if she hadn't died, he would never have gotten to know his children and his relationship with them wouldn't have changed. I think it was sort of necassary for her to die. :sad:

[Discordia]

I thought it was kind of irritating actually. Ephram gets Madison pregant only she doesn't tell him and instead he goes off to NYC with Amy. I think that Madison will most likely get an abortion or that somethign will happen and she'll lose the baby. Ephram is going to find out eventually and when he does so will Amy and than there will be this huge roe between them. Ephram is far too young to have a baby.

[Pegasus]

Yes, well, Ephram is far too young to be having sex. As for him finding out, Andy just told Madison to get out of town, right? The only thing I can see happening is Andy--or Amy's grandma, who Andy told--slipping up somehow and saying something. I doubt we'll see Madison again, unless the writers want her back.

[jasper]

I don't think we can hope to have seen the last of Madison.

[swishandflick]

Eprham is definately too young to have a child. Maybe Madison will come back in the middle of next season to tell him? I could understand why Andy would try and hide it from Ephram, but it could really destroy thier relationship.

[Hufflepuffy]

Yes, well, Ephram is far too young to be having sex.

Lol, well, Ephram is only a character, not a real person. And at 16 or 17, however old he's supposed to be, he is plenty old enough to be having sex. At least by my standards.

I don't think Madison will have the baby. I think she's going to lose it, an abortion might be a little too controversial (it does come on after 7th Heaven). But I really really hope she doesn't have the baby. Too much drama for the show.

Tonight me and my sister were discussing how much drama it would be if Amy got preggers as well. Soap Opera, much? :)

[Pegasus]

Well, the fact that Amy's still a virgin makes me hope she's more mature in this one aspect than Ephram. Everwood has already taken on abortion, marijuana, homosexuality...heck, Ephram was having wet dreams all through the pilot. Not to mention dealing with early release on a teenager?! Please. I can't believe they did that. I can't see that they've ever been careful due to 7th Heaven being first.
Yes, it is a soap opera, and sadly, I'm addicted...
It's still beyond me that Andy made the decision he did--but as you said, it's all writing, not real people, and Andy isn't always the most moral person.

[jasper]

errrg. I'm kinda glad I haven't seen that many episodes and never caught the pilot.

[Pegasus]

Yeah...I saw the pilot and have seen every episode since. That's how I got addicted to Dawson's Creek. I nearly stopped watching after that huge sex episode--I still can't believe they did it that way on TV (perhaps that should be rephrased)--but I waited it out, and now I'm hoping things will improve, since all the right people broke up and got together (except we're still waiting on Andy and Nina, of course...)

[dctalkchick316]

I agree...thats the next big couple that need to get together ..andy and nina. They need to stop fighting it. I love that Efraim and Amy got together ...but she was starting to bug soo bad. Oh well...can't wait til next season.

[swishandflick]

Ephram was having wet dreams all through the pilot.Not to mention dealing with early release on a teenager?! Please. I can't believe they did that. I can't see that they've ever been careful due to 7th Heaven being first.

Lol...I don't remember the dreams :huh:. Well, you'd be surprised what high schooler's are up to, ever heard of this jelly bracelets trend? Its really disgusting and I'm glad I graduated before that started.

[Gwenog Jones]

Lol...I don't remember the dreams :huh:. Well, you'd be surprised what high schooler's are up to, ever heard of this jelly bracelets trend? Its really disgusting and I'm glad I graduated before that started.

I don't remember the dreams either! Yeah, I've heard of the jelly bracelets trend, since I am still in high school, and I'm proud to say that I take no part in any of that, at all.

The season premiere is tomorrow, what is everyone hoping for this season. The main thing I want to happen is Andy and Nina to get together. It would be so perfect..

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

I'd love to see Andy and Nina get together too. *sigh* My wishes already came true on Gilmore Girls (three cheers for Luke and Lorelai!) so this would be really excellent, especially since Ephram and Amy are finally officially dating. But even that won't be perfect, because, of course, Madison is pregnant. *sigh* That alone is guaranteed to muck things up.

[Rita Skeeter]

i really like how it is right now .. i love that amy and ephram are FINALLY together, and i cant stress the finally enough .. i also like nina and andy flirting, not so much together because i only like him with linda .. ugh but i hate madison and the fact she got pregant .. its too much like the oc .. trust wb to have while everything is finally going good to get someone pregnant

[IceKat55]

The new season starts TONIGHT, I'm so excited!! :clap:

[Hufflepuffy]

I'm so glad Ephram hasn't found out about Madison yet. I'm sure we haven't seen the last of her. I think she probably got an abortion, or maybe is going to put the baby up for adoption. But I think she is definitly coming back, and Ephram will probably find out about the baby. I'm not sure that Madison is going to tell Ephram that Dr. Brown told her not to tell him. I hope not soon, though. A couple of episodes where everyone is happy would be nice...

And when are Andy and Nina gonna hook up?? C'mon. Or maybe Nina and the new doctor. That would be interesting.

I'm liking Dr. Abbott more this season. He doesn't seem so slimy. Him and Dr. Brown remind me of an old married couple, the way they bicker. It's sort of cute. And I'm glad their friends now, Andy really only had Nina and Edna to talk to. Now he has another Dad to get advice from.

I guess that's it for now. This new season's pertty good so far.

And Ephram's new hair is adorable ;)

[FoolOnTheHill]

I've gotten addicted to this show even though I've probably only seen a total of 8 episodes, but my family always keeps me updated. :D I saw the first two of the season but I don't think I get the right channel here at University...

I'm convinced Madison is coming back, and that's because Ephram and Amy can't have a perfect relationship or it will get boring. I'd like them to be perfectly happy, but it needs to have problems for the show to stay exciting.

I'm wondering... maybe Ephram and Amy will decide they are ready to have sex but then Madison comes back and tells him about the pregnancy, so Ephram freaks out and won't sleep with Amy because he's paranoid. Hmm. So Amy gets annoyed. We shall see.

And Ephram's new hair is adorable ;)
Ephram is cute. :clap:

:lol:

[Windstar]

I can't believe Edna is going to leave Doc Brown for the new doc!!! First she leaves her own son's office for doc Brown and now she goes over again??

I love Everwood and 7th Heaven.

[Nymphadora*]

Okay, it's been ages since anyone has written in here,so i'm going to revive this. lol:D

Anyways, i love Everwood. My mom started watching it now, and at first i thought it was a stupid show, but i watched one episode and i was intrigued i guess. Now, i really really enjoy it. Ephram and Amy are amazing together! Although, i keep having this feeling that their relationship is going to get screwed up by the fact that they already had a fight about Ephram going to see Madison's band perform even though Madison wasn't there. Still, i think when Madison has the baby, Ephram will find out sooner or later that he is a father.

[swishandflick]

Yay new episode tonight :clap: !

I wasn't surprised that Amy didn't get into the class....two years is an eternity in ballet. She's got decent grades; I'm sure she'll find whatever she's looking for. Ephram's being a good guy, I liked the conversation between Delia and Amy. Especially since it's such a male-driven show.

The relationship is really grossing me out. Don't find it the least bit endearing :shrug:.

[Nymphadora*]

Yeah..i have a feeling that the town will learn of Andy's relationship. Or Ephram will find out first, or Harold or Jake or something before the town. Something big will happen with it though..i have a feeling anyways.

I knew Amy wasn't going to get in. She just made up her mind to do it, very quickly, and i'm not sure if she put enough thought into it. oh, and the conversation with Delia and Amy was nice. Delia deserved a talk with a big sister type person. :)..

haha..one part i was laughing at was when Amy didn't get in..(not that) and Bright was like, "Do you want me to go talk to her? I'm all about failure." lol!!:lol:

I missed the episode last night, but it sounds like it's becoming more of the same (please don't shoot me)--I don't like what Andy is doing at all. I'm sure the writers are just playing games, because I for one fully expected Andy to notice Nina is a girl (Yule Ball reference, there)--but I'm tired of Andy's twisted view of morality--or lack of...something.
[/RANT]

[Nymphadora*]

Yes..i don't like what Andy is doing with Amanda. It's getting too weird, and dangerous, and i thought that he would definitly consider Nina, but it turns out he didn't. He knows it's wrong to do that with Amanda, since she is still married, but he still does it. However, i'm hearing that he is going to reveal the relationship to Delia soon or something.

[Pegasus]

Andy is such a blind jerk when it comes to Nina. What's-his-name-new-doctor is right--he's way too self-centered.

[WeasleyIsOurKing]

I agree with you all about Andy and Amanda. She's still married. Yes, she's lonely, and yes, her husband is in a vegetative state, but that still doesn't make it right. They both should know better. We need to get Amanda and Jake out of the picture and slap Andy around the face a few times so he'll realize Nina is only a few footsteps away.

I'm very happy with the Ephram/Amy relationship, however. Amy does get on my nerves sometimes, but aside from that, I have no complaints. :p

Did you guys know that Emily VanCamp (Amy) has a role in The Ring 2 (http://www.ring2-themovie.com/)? It should be weird to see her in this type of role...

Really?! Wow, that would be weird.

I love Everwood. Amy/Ephram together make me so happy. However, Andy needs to get away from Amanda. First of all, she is still married. What is he thinking? I don't even think I'd like her though, even if she wasn't married.

I'm not surprised Amy didn't get into the class. Being a ballet dancer myself, I know that you need to be super thin, and start at a young age. I felt bad for her though. Bright's line "I'm all about failure" cracked me up !

[swishandflick]

My guess is that the Amanda relationship is just meant to drive home the issue that Nina brings up about Andy only going for women who are unavailable because he still hasn't fully dealed with his wife's death.

It's sad that Andy is still going through this, but in this case I think the casting of Anne Hashe in particular was a bad choice in casting. She doesn't seem like a sympathetic person in any of the scenes with her husband. I never felt that she was sincere in caring for him. I don't know if that was the directors decision or her lack of talent, but either way the entire relationship leaves a foul taste in my mouth.

Please end Amanda/Andy!

As to Ephram and Amy...everythings going grand until the inevitable Madison appearance. What I'm hoping is that the WB won't advertise her return at all. They'll show something completely different and just have her pop in at a random moment in a random episode.

I'm not looking forward to that. But then, I turned off the TV early last week because I was so mad at Andy, and life is getting busy, so I may end up hearing about it second-hand, anyway.

[IceKat55]

Okay, tonight's episode sealed it. I officially :love: Bright & Hannah!!!! They are a breath of fresh air on what has fast become a very, very, disappointingly stale show.

HOW cute were they on the porch?!

[Windstar]

I love Bright and Hannah also! And I'm kind of glad that she is going to go get that test. It would be a hard decision to make.

I hope she doesn't go out with that other kid though. I want her and Bright together.

I think Bright really likes her and just is afraid, just like Nina is afraid of falling for Jake.

As for Madison, I was hoping she would just disappear, but honestly, if Ephram has a baby out there, he does have a right to know about the child. At this point, it doesn't have to ruin his life, he can still go on with what he had planned for his future. It will affect him though. I don't know what Amy is going to do when she finds out though.

From what I saw, Amy's father tells Amy about Madison. I don't think that is quite appropriate, he isn't even supposed to know about it. But, if I were in that position, I would probably do the same thing.

I agree. Bright may not realize it yet, though, because Hannah isn't the typical "pretty face/no-brained" kinda girl that he goes for. I think Hannah will be good for him, and really bring out some depth in his character. :)

[swishandflick]

Bright and Hannah are the sweetest couple I've seen :D .

I like how Amy and Ephram took a back seat in this episode. Now it's like they are in a normal stage and everythings balanced. Until the inevitable Madison bomb. But it's nice now :).

I still don't like Dr. Brown and Anne Heche (I don't like her, I don't need her name). It feels like the writers are shoving the relationship down our throats and making excuses to justify it. I don't like to be told to ship a couple. That means they aren't doing thier jobs. It feels like a pit stop on the road to Andy/Nina. And it was cold to have the dinner with thier kids there. Delia doesn't know any better, and she shouldn't have to with two adults who should know.

Speaking of Nina, I like Nina and Scott Wolf (he was my first crush ;) ). Especially how he treats her son, any guy who would invest that much time into getting to know a single mom's son is a good sign.

Great episode. Very enthusiastic :tu: :tu: .

Next week Baby!Bomb!

[Windstar]

So much happened! I didn't catch the very beginning but wow! Bright is out of his mother's office, Andy is now unattached, Nina and Jake went on a road trip together, Amy's dad told the "secret".

I can't wait until next week.

Andy is going to be pretty upset about Dr. Abbott telling Amy. Amy won't be able to keep it from Ephram for very long.

Did you see what is going to happen next week? Ephram runs into Madison in New York. Andy talks with Madison.

That should be a good episode!

What happened with Edna and I can't think of his name right this second, Erb?

[jasper]

Just in case you need to know: [/spoiler] is the tag you would use at the end of a spoiler and [spoiler] is the tag to put at the beginning!

I always tune out so I don't see the "scenes from the next episode" because it ruins the surprise for me.

Edna and Erb or whoever hit the skids over living in or leaving Everwood-- I think.

[swishandflick]

The actress who plays Amy is fantastic. To get the tear to fall at the right time and in the right direction isn't easy :agree: .
I'm really worried about Madi!Bomb.
Loved the scenes with Anna, she's a great addition to the show.
Bright and Rose were good tonight as well.

Fantastic episode!

[Windstar]

That was great with Bright and Rose. Do you think this will change anything in Bright's behavior? How about him apologizing? That was nice. But what was with his smile when he was walking away? Did he really mean his apology?

I was glad to see that Bright was quite happy about Hannah's test results. I was a little concerned about the way Hannah was taking it though. I thought she would have been happier, even though they did mention "survivor's guilt". She still has to be somewhat happy knowing that now she can have a "normal" life.

[swishandflick]

I had a fleeting suspicion that Hannah might be lying and saying that she passed but didn't. I have faith that the writers would've at least let us in on that though *crosses fingers.*

Now Bright has to find a job I think he'll pull it together. At least enough to ensure they're all in New York or Colorado A&M next year :evil: .

[Windstar]

I never thought she might not be telling the truth. That's a good point though. Hmmm. That will give me something to ponder until next week. Was she smiling when she was looking at the sky on the porch? Hmmmm.
I know that Edna and Erb were at a crossroads on what to do with the rest of their lives, but then we've never seen any more of them. I hope they stay together, I think they are good for each other.
Now that Andy isn't with Amanda, will he finally see what he is losing out on in Nina?

This was a great episode for Bright. I think the combination of tonight's realizations (the confrontation with his mother, his acceptance & apology to his co-worker, and his being fired), and his new-found interaction with Hannah, will be very positive for his character growth. Hannah will be a positive influence on him...maybe she'll even be his first real "love", and vice-versa.

Hannah will, eventually, come to be happy with the test results, but for now, the guilt must be overwhelming. First with the mental trauma and build-up (the uncertain "what if"s), before the test results. And now, to know that her father is suffering through it, and yet to be so relieved for herself, are like two sides of an emotional magnet fighting against each other. She'll come to terms with it and move on...but it'll probably take a minute or two. :)

Oh, and I adored how Bright pulled her up & off of her feet into the hug on the stairs!!! :love:

[PLIMPY]

I thought that Hannah could be lying, but I am right now hoping that she is not. I sort of figures it wouldn't be positive because that would be so tremendously sad and difficult for her to deal with. I'm going with the belief that the trick they pulled on us about her possibly having it appeared in this episode, when at the beginning they showed her and Amy as being sad, sort of as if they were trying to make us think that her results were positive.
I think perhaps they are setting up for Bright and Hannah, he certainly sees her as just more than meat, or at least to help him see women in a different light (although personally I think that having a little sister should have helped him all along).

I really hope that the whole Madison thing doesn't ruin Amy and Ephram. I really don't see why it would have to. Amy knew that Ephram and Madison had slept together, it wasn't like he was keeping anything from her. Even if she has the baby, it doesn't change what Ephram did, it just changed the results of his actions.

[Pegasus]

Was she smiling when she was looking at the sky on the porch? Hmmmm. I'm pretty sure she was. I thought for just a second that she was lying, but then when she stepped onto the front porch and smiled at the sky--exactly where Bright took her to talk to her about being spontaneous and taking chances--it made sense to me. I hope I was right.
The whole thing with everyone knowing but Ephram is such an awkward thing. And now that Anne Heche is finally GONE GONE GONE, maybe I can relax and enjoy the show again. You take out the stupid doctor/patient's WIFE love affair, and there's still a story left! Imagine that.

[PLIMPY]

I must agree with Pegusus, I am very glad that Andy's relationship with Anne Heche is over. I was really hoping that they wouldn't go through with her divorcing him in the state he was in and I'm glad to see it didn't happen.

[Windstar]

Yes, but she is not staying for the right reasons. She was ready to leave him before he ended up in that state, so why is she willing to stay with him at this point? Could things work out? Will she come back to Andy in a few episodes, once he's gotten another love interest, and complicate things again?

[Pegasus]

She had better not, or I may just boycott the show for real.

[swishandflick]

I'm hoping that the network saw there was a negative reaction to Anne Heche and she's gone for good. Hopefully Andy's next relationship is with someone who will stick around for a while. Preferably Nina, but since she's dating Dimples who knows :shrug: .

[IceKat55]

UGH. An 8 week hiatus. *bangs head on keyboard* I will NEVER understand the network television 'mentality'. :no:

Good episode tonight...great cliffhanger!! And Bright's little 'almost-revelation' about Hannah was so sweet! It's going to hit him like a ton of bricks!! :love:

8 weeks is so long!! Bright was so cute tonight. I can't wait till he realizes he likes Hannah! :lol:

[swishandflick]

8 WEeks?!? :wow: Why do they do this :upset: ?

It's nice to see the calm before the storm episode...if we would have a fresh one next week. I missed Hannah this time. Can't wait for Bright/Hannah.

[PLIMPY]

I can't believe that they are doing this to us either! That is just mean. I am also happy that Bright is starting to realize what he wants, being upset about not being the type of guy girls settle down with, and that he thinks about Hannah. Poor Amy though, she is trying to be so supportive and has to deal with everything without Ephram. :(

[Windstar]

Sheesh!! I had to work tonight and missed it and now you guys are saying it won't be on with a new episode for 8 weeks??? NOT FAIR!!! Someone send me an owl and tell me all the good stuff PLEASE!!!
