  • At least one mystery solved!

    9.5
    "Superb"

    Johnny is left alone with Nikki and Karen tries to trust him. Johnny leaves to talk to Greta and Nikki throws a party. Cliff and Nikki drink. Greta knows something but won't tell Johnny. Bob and Karen go dancing with Tess and Travis. Nikki runs away. Cliff learns that Travis isn't very trustworthy. Liza is the one sending Johnny those creepy IMs.

    This was a great episode! I knew that Liza was important somehow! She is one of my favorite characters! I was disappointed with Nikki. I thought she would be triumphant with her problem, but she did it again. This episode gets a 9.5!moreless

  • Johnny continues his hunt for the story of what really happened with Eddie.

    7.5
    "Good"

    A good episode with more character development and, in the case of Nikki, more character disappointment.

    Johnny and Greta's kiss and budding relationship causes Cliff to warn Greta about what would happen if Johnny ever discovered the truth of what happened with Eddie. Greta threatens to tell Johnny everything but reconsiders. I loved the revelation at the end of this episode, Liza, the little wallflower (though why is everyone's guess) turns out to be the one impersonating Eddie and sending Johnny messages. Despite this, she may turn out to become a good friend, though Johnny may not think about her in this way yet. In this type of series and with such a storyline, it is inevitable that he will discover that she is the one sending him these instant messages (which they continue to refer to as e-mail). It will be interesting to see what effect that will have on them.moreless

  • It was pretty good

    9.9

    Well first of all i didnt like nikki inviting all her friends and grtting johnny in trouble. Cliff is a total sweety and i can see what he hates his moms new boyfriend. I think cliff and nikki make a cute couple. And im not happy johnny and greta are having problems

  • Kept me entertained.

    8.5
    "Great"

    I don't expect much from a summer serious other than not to feel that empty void of my fave Fall shows. With that said Hidden Palms gives me the same satisfaction that TheOC did the summer it premiered. This ep What Liza beneath had more of my favorite character Liza and finally felt like it was moving forward. Maybe a 8.5 is too high for some. But I feel like it portrayed exactly what it should. The mystery moved along, Cliff had some great moments and Nikki grew as well. Unfortunately, Johnny's going through a Dawson esque obsession with Greta (Jen) but still.

    I'm not sure if it's normal to love the secondary characters more than the main ones but it seems like Kevin Williamson has a nack for just that.

    Either way the best ep so far. And more Jesse-Jo please.moreless
