Squee! Everwood is back! I have missed this show something fierce. And now my comments in list form because I’m feeling a little lazy… 😛
1. For the record, I’m not crazy about Greg’s hair. It’s all floppy and long. Cut. It.
2. Huh. New credits. I like them but I loved the old ones. But! At least Merrilyn Gann is in the credits now. It’s about time.
3. I loved all the scenes showing us what everyone was up to during the summer… Amy in summer school, Bright playing basketball, the Doctors in their new office…
4. … And Delia burning her hats!!! I’m so sad about that.
5. I fell in love with Ephram and Amy all over again in the teaser when she picks him up from the airport. Guh. And the natural way they just kind of glided over to each other to kiss… *sigh*
6. The way Andy hugged Ephram when he got home was so real. Too bad their whole reunion was tainted for me because of the thought of Madison. I really dislike this storyline. I want the whole Madison/baby plot to get wrapped up. Quick. The relationship between Andy and Ephram is one of my favorites and I feel like I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop and it’ll be back to Ephram hating his father. And that kills me.
7. I miss Irv’s voiceovers! I admit that sometimes they could be a bit cheesy but most of the time, they’re really touching (like the ending narration from Last Looks).
8. Ephram not answering Amy’s call. 🙁 I understand that Ephram’s all stressed out about Juilliard but… he needs to chill out a little.
9. Scott Wolf. He hasn’t aged at all! He seriously could have been Bailey from Po5. But was it just me or did he play his character to be a bit too hyper? And what was that look he shared with Nina?! No.
Memorable quotes
— Bright [to Ephram]: “I made 37 baskets. In a row!” (Not enough Bright in the episode!)
— Dr. Brown [to Dr. Abbott]: “There’s only so much wood a man can take!”
— Dr. Brown [to Dr. Abbott]: “I want my chair back!” BWAH!
— Bright [to Amy]: “Maybe that weird feeling you’re talking about is actually a good mood.” Ahhh, so true. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Amy so smile-y and happy. It was great.
— Dr. Abbott [to Jake]: “But you’re like 12 years old!”
Can’t wait for next week — I’m so glad the season’s started!
