  • Michelle

    "Good"

    So the aftermath of what I think was the climax of the season, was Michelle breaking up with Tony. Finally, I'll say. Tony's hookup with Maxxie was very unexpected in the last episode, I just wish we got a bigger reaction from everyone. We really are witnessing Tony's downfall with him losing Sid, Michelle, and pretty much all his friends over that one night with Maxxie.

    But I was having trouble feeling sorry for him especially after what he did too Josh & Michelle, I liked how Josh's sister tied in too everything though. I liked how Sid is finally over Michelle, and I'm glad they didn't go as far as they planned on going especially since I'm really liking Sid/Casie right now. Cassie has a boyfriend? I kind of suspected there would have to be some conflict between the two.

    I never liked Michelle and in fact, I still find her quite annoying, but she was good in this episode. I definitely had low expectations in delving in the life of Michelle, but her discovering Tony cheated on her was a perfect fit for this episode. I really couldn't care less about Michelle's mother though. Good episode overall.moreless

    This episode was really good!!
    Michelle finally realize the jerk Tony is! And what he did with Josh and the photos were terrible! i'm glad she is not back with him!!
    Sid is weird! All he always wanted was lose his virginity with Michelle and when he had the opourtunity he wasted! He's very different from the other boys. Aparentely, his first time has a meaning and he wants it to be special!
    Chris and Angie is a funny relationship! Maxxie really feels bad because of the sucking thing with Tony, which proves that he is a good boy. Anwar and him are a good team, they have to fix this up!!
    Well, this are the things that i remember....

    Does anybody know when the 2nd season starts??moreless

    In this episode we concentrate on Michelle, who we all know has a lot of fire in the belly. We see this straight away in the episode as she storms up to Tony and punches him in the face, before kicking him downstairs. Clearly annoyed with Tony and wanting him out of her life, she seems desperate to seek someone on the rebound and goes straight to Sid, who rejects her claiming that he does love Cassie. She then meets Josh, the brother Abigail (the girl Tony sleeps with). They have a immediate attraction for eachother and sleep together. However Tony still loves Michelle, or so he claims. He then does a disgusting trick, by take softcore pictures of Joshs sister Abigail. He then steals Joshs phone, puts the pictures on the phone and sends them to Michelle. Michelle now obviously thinks that Josh is mental and is into incest.moreless

  • Somewhat dull.

    "Mediocre"

    It was dull. . . At the very least nothing awfully over the top happened.

    Michelle is the "Paris Hilton" of the show. Nothing negative here, most tv show have a character like that. Good looks, but lacks depth. This episode tries to give her some depth but actually it doesn't succeed...

    the whole idea of her and Tony breaking up is something that was foreshadowed since episode 1. So it happens finally.

    And that's it. Nothing else really happens. Predictable, lacks every kind of drama or comedy. Probably the least enjoyable episode of the series to date. A dragged out transitional episode .moreless

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Chris: It's like a f****n' episode of The O.C. in here.

      Chris references the popular US-based show, The O.C., which enjoyed a surge of popularity from 2003 until its ultimate demise in 2007. Edit

    • The asylum/rehab centre where Sid and Michelle visit Cassie bears a lot of similarity to the town of Portmeirion as seen in the 1960's show The Prisoner, which included a lot of insanely happy people, an overly romanticised view of an English country garden and a large blow up ball (all seen here).
