I can’t even put all my thoughts down on this episode. It might be my new favourite, after William dying (what a sick thing to say lol)
Interesting. I would say it was one of my least favourite episodes, which sounds so incredibly cold. I thought Justin did an incredible job with his scenes. And the young big three etc. The writing with the football field scene was very well done.
I can't say it's that it's simply too much emotionally - I lived and died for Six Feet Under which was certainly not fa la la la la. I think I need a bit of levity/normalcy, throughout the very difficult. Which is bizarre since I'm not one to be emotionally scared of anything.
I didn't feel much besides being completely drained.
I don’t know why but I connected with Kevin so much this week. I’m literally tearing up right now.
Felt that kimblebee.
This, and Kate's dog being shown throughout the episode I think were huge hints toward the death.
Yes.
I am also wondering now if we are going to get a back story at some point. We haven't, correct?
A la why did Kate get a dog versus a family dog. I'm simply curious.
Honestly, the actors who play the teenage big three are amazing. They capture the subtle nuances of the older counterparts.
Absolutely. Great casting.
I always love to hear about and see the audition process, to see if it was chemistry together that sealed the deal etc.
A casting agent is beyond important to a show's success.
I thought the same thing. Why on earth would she not help him????
I think that was the whole point though, Kevin practically crying for help and everyone around him is just too dazzled by his looks, fame, charm etc. He gave that cringe worthy speech about not being worthy and they all clapped and cheered. The Dr., who should see the signs, falls all over herself to get him in bed. The young starry eyed girl asking him to a party. Even Randall who must see how bad Kevin looks is focused on Kate.
HIs whole life everyone idolized him. He is crying for help and all everyone can do is worship him.
What a great post, anniemae.
So ironic. We have a young Kevin always searching to be seen. And he lives a life/strived for a life where he definitely is, but he's realizing not in the way that is needed. Life. So very interesting.
