    I loved this episode. It was the first episode in Season 2 that I could say I absolutely loved (more came afterwards). It was well written, and it focused a lot on the boys of the Spiederman Mind Explosion, who should get a lot more attention than they do. I thought some of the little arguments were cute in their own Instant Star way, like the ones between Spiederman, Wally, and Kyle. I especially loved the Jude/Speed arguments. I loved Tommy's little bits of advice for Jude, he's like her mentor and secret lover. Ha-ha. Either way, this episode is extremely cute.moreless

  • Spiederman wants to more than just friends with Jude, but shes too scared of pushing him away.

    Spiederman likes Jude as more than just friends. Jude and SME perform great together and Jude and Spiederman have great chemisty on and off stage. Jude can tell that Spied wants to be more than just friends, but Jude doesn't know what she wants especially since she feels like she's been pusing everyone away lately. Spiederman doesn't know how to tell Jude his feeling which causes him to be in a bad mood. He picks a fight with his band mates which causes SME to break up. Jude trys to talk to Spiederman they ended up getting in a fight because Jude won't admit she wants to be more than friends with Spiederman. In the Jude admits her feeling for him and they are officially together! A great episode!moreless

  • In this episode, Spiederman and Jude face the ultimate decision. To fall for each other and risk everything they worked for or to hide their feelings and risk everything they've worked for. Meanwhile, Saide and Portia develop a new friendship.moreless

    This is by far my favorite episode. I love the chemistry of Jude and Spiederman on stage at the beginning ( and the song is extremely catchy, as all her songs are ) There are some parts where the audio isn't cooperating with the video, but it doesn't matter because you get so caught up in the magic of Spieds and Judes relationship. I love the part where Spied insults the drummer and Wally snaps back at him only to leave Spied in an even bigger rush of rage than he was in before. This episode is everything i love about Instant Star, the wittiness, the romance, the drama, and the music. It's amazing.moreless

    After a couple of so-so eps "Instant Star" comes bounding back with this little piece of fluff, seemingly a little nod to the Alexz Johnson-Tyler Kyte relationship. Spiederman's crush on Jude really isn't that surprising (they did spend almost two months on bus together) and his reaction to Jude's joke about Wally is possibly my favorite Spied moment. (or should I say Vincent?) The Jude/Vincent (I'm gonna call him that from now on.) is not only mind-numbingly cute; but it also takes Jude away from her Tommy obession. Tommy also has relationship woes but this comes from a manipulative ex-wife and not a guitarist with a crush. I've never liked Portia, and her clear manipulation of Sadie in this episode is just wrong. And although the moment was over fairly quickly I just have to point out that Tommy and Jamie, sworn enemies, had a civil (albeit quick) exchange in this episode.moreless
