Cleared out a tape from 2005. It opened with a ‘Popular’ ep ‘Hope In A Jar’ in which a school dance is upcoming making the students strive for unrealistic standards of beauty. But still Nicole, Mary Cherry and April popping elephant laxatives is played for laughs. This was not good.
Best Lines:
“Listen up chicken of the sea.”
“I know this company. It’s a diet plan targeted specifically at unhappy teenage girls. I saw it on a talk show entitled Horrifying Trends.”
Then came a ‘G vs E’ ep ‘Cougar Pines’ in which Morlocks get involved with golf. This was dull, the tracking was off and the guy from ‘Son of the Beach’ guest starred as did Phlox and T’Pol from ‘Star Trek: Enterprise’ before they were cast as such.
Best Line:
“This is some sort of pagan sex rite isn’t it?”
Then came a ‘Stargate Atlantis’ season 1 ep ‘Letters from Pegasus’ which is basically a clip show.
Then finally there was a ‘Point Pleasant’ ep 'The Lonely Hunter' in which Jesse, Terry, Christina and Judy parade in beach attire. There is a meteor show. Boyd has a party and his lackey is Warren from ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’. There is bad acting, Meg wears flares, Jesse’s parents carry on their creepy abusive dynamic, Paula pouts, Jon Hamm guest stars as a guy into kidnapping teenage girls and this was stupid.
Best Lines:
“Who died?”
“Nobody yet.”
