DVR is set. I didn’t watch at all last season, so it’ll be like a new show. I’ve forgotten everything, except my dislike for the whiny kid. Matt? Is that his name?

Yep, he converted to Scientology and married Kimber last season. I wonder how many characters made the move to LA. Logically it should only be Sean & Christian, but Liz is also in the previews.

Matt and Kimber are married!?!?! :eek: Now I’m really glad I didn’t watch. Why, for pete’s sake? Were they trying to piss Christian off?

The show-within-a-show bit is going to get real old, real fast. Almost as old and as fast as Julian McMahon’s ass did.

Wow. That was quite good. I’m impressed that the writers are able to keep this show fresh after so many seasons. The Producer (Director?) of the show-within-the-show is a great addition as a character. And Lauren Hutton is wonderful.

I’m glad this show is back!

I missed it - I was out of town - but my DVR should’ve caught it. What I’m interested in, is how they’re going to re-introduce Rosie O’Donnell as herself. She’s been in the previews, and she played a character when the fellas were in Florida…

Fascinating. I hated every minute of it. I thought it was contrived, boring, and hugely lacking in any of the high drama that the first 3 seasons brought. Even the sex was boring. Not to mention, it’s as if the writers felt they’d backed themselves into such a deep corner that they just had to pretend that the first 3 seasons didn’t exist at all, so that they wouldn’t have to deal with actually wrapping up or following up on any of the dangly bits.

I feel like I have to try to support it because it helps pay my husband’s salary, but if it stays this bad and boring, I may have to bail after the next episode or two.
