SINGLE, OUT season 2 episode 7: THE BIRTHDAY BOY

SPOILERS, bitches! Bitches, spoilers!

 

No episode that starts with Adam, shirtless (not for very long but he has it open a longer time) and dancing before a mirror can be bad. Finally, the last episode of season two has landed!

 

Oh dear God, how refreshing. After a tumultuous six episodes, Adam gets to make things right with Lex and even set Lex into thinking that his friend Hilly is into him that way (is Lex gay or bi?). He also gets to confront Gabe and Gabe’s over his anger and wants to be with Adam…the way Adam wants to be with Lex. It all works out. They all accept where they are at and are friends. Marco is not in this episode so does that mean the wedding happened? I forgot. Or will that be next season? I hope there is a season three.

 

This, thankfully, lighter episode caps off the season with a lunch / dinner for Clay’s birthday and he brings girlfriend Kat along. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop and someone to upset someone else or someone to die but that never happened and I love it.

 

There’s a party, two actually, and everyone gets to dance. Adam accepts his single life and has two weeks without sex…doctor’s orders. Mom is, once again, pretty funny and Adam even gets along with Mom’s boyfriend Greg who is doing yoga across the kitchen countertops and island and Greg even helps Adam cook the roast for Clay’s birthday.

 

In his discussions with everyone, individually, Adam shows growth and maturity. He’s also wildly hilarious in his very being and extremely sexy without trying to be. Dylon and Adam meet at least twice and the magazine comes out or is about to and Adam gets to see an advance copy. Dylon hires him for the next magazine, too. Dylon’s philosophy is appreciating what you have instead of worrying about what you want.

 

This episode works so well and is so refreshing in the current atmosphere of TV and the world at large. I love this series. The balance is just perfect. The cast is amazing and beautiful inside and out. Well done. Highly recommended.


Added: Theo turns green and the lips of the movie director turns green, too. Everyone gathered earlier to watch the movie, which I admit I didn't understand. Was Theo playing a Terminator? 

 

 The episode ends as it starts, with Adam dancing, happy.

LOST IN SPACE-the two unaired pilots NO PLACE TO HIDE

Image
  NOTE: Since both unaired pilots are inferior to THE RELUCTANT STOWAWAY, THE DERELICT, ISLAND IN THE SKY, THERE WERE GIANTS IN THE EARTH, and THE HUNGRY SEA, I have decided to put both unaired pilots after these five episodes--since these used stock footage from both pilots---as for readers to be able to compare the unaired pilots to the much better versions seen in the episodes. Both pilots are important, however, because they give us some background not given in the aired episodes. There is less development of characters and situations, however in these unaired pilots.      UNAIRED PILOT NUMBER ONE The Jupiter II was originally called the Gemini 12 and could travel at 18412 miles per hour. The TV man commentator is the narrator, not Dick Tufeld. The countdown is started in this story at 6 minutes and 40 seconds. The credits start right away with DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL music. The Robinsons will stay in their suspended animation slumber for 98 years. Alpha Control mentions th

LOST IN SPACE-THERE WERE GIANTS IN THE EARTH

  THERE WERE GIANTS IN THE EARTH TELEPLAY-CAREY WILBUR STORY--SIMON WINCELBERG DIR-LEO PENN MUSIC-HERMAN STEIN, BERNARD HERRMAN   NARRATION: Last week as you REMEMBER, Will had slipped away from the spaceship to try and repair the Chariot, unaware that the renegade Robot, programmed to obey only Dr. Smith's voice orders, was loose in the area.   TEASER-fully recapped   Will is in the Chariot as the camera pans across it. He is cold and not having much success at fixing the land vehicle. He guesses he was wrong about it. "I gotta get back to the ship. What?"   He sees the Robot coming over a hill. He goes out, "I wanna talk to you about the way you ran off."    Robot repeats Smith's orders, "When unessential personnel are found alone, destroy."   He blasts a tree and moves closer to Will. Will climbs up the Chariot, "Go back, do you hear me? Go..go back. Go back." He repeats this several times. Robot fires electric betw

DOCTOR WHO: THE STAR BEAST

  DOCTOR WHO: THE STAR BEAST "I hate that."   Okay, the opening is pure RTD DW and it’s not bad. The one thing I can say that makes Donna look stupid is giving all her money away so her husband can keep working. What a dope. He says it was for charity and who knows if charities are really on the up and up and all that money went where it should go. The humor is again, as in most of RTD, from the circumstances and the character relationships and so far, it doesn’t jar or unbalance the plot or the viewers. Nice start.   Donna is stupid. You can’t help others if you can’t help yourself.   And…yawn. UNIT. UFO news report. Yawn. Boring.   In a few short bursts of dialog, RTD makes it so that we instantly relike Donna, this Doctor, and Sylvia. And through Donna, her husband and Sylvia’s dialog, like this new Rose to boot. He’s a master at getting us to like these characters, creating realistic characters, and at making the dialog natural and realistic. Was I foolish
