Desperate?
Dec 28th, 2004 by Ashley
Yeah, seeing my blog title, you'd know that I'm extremely crazy about Desperate Housewives.
There's no new episode last sunday, so I opened my little collection and watched the second and
third episodes. It was awesome! I was like, how can I live if I can never see such great show again!!!
Anyways, as the show goes on, the characters grow more and more vivid, and their personalities
become more clear, and my feeling toward the characters changes and becomes more complex. Yes,
people are not flat that you can deicde that soandso is good and soandso is bad. People have their
strengths and weaknesses, and sometimes a problem is not just caused by one single person, but a
result of many different things.
However, sometimes I don't like TV shows is because sometimes they don't have a fixed script; even
worse, they write the script a week before shooting it, and write it according to audiences'
preference. That's why I considered Babylon 5 a wonderful seccessful TV show, cuz the synopsis was
already there, and thus the whole storyline wouldn't float and characters wouldn't change irreasonably.
Like Alias, though I LOVE that show, the whole story has depth and is very exciting, but I dare not
say it was all set before they're shooting it, and therefore makes it somewhat not normal… see, one
day you were a lovely wife and the next day (because the audiences hate you) you become the enemy.
Well, I just hope that they can write a story as good as they tell it.
