You’re Such a Menace And You’re No Good
Everyone started preparing for Dan Scott’s acclaimed “nightmare TV show” at 11 AM or so, and this was something they were dreading. Before the show filled up their schedule for the day they might’ve stared at a spot on the kitchen wall or had a dramatic, heavy-breathing competition.
Rene` narrates the steps to her alleged sexual encounter with Tree Hill superstar Nathan Scott as we get to see relationship flashbacks we never wanted to see. But congratulations, Haley’s sister! You are the most boring character on any show since Fantasia won American Idol.
Redemption makes everyone openly question themselves and each other, but seriously? I’m getting really sick of watching a TV show on a TV show…Watching them watching each other – doesn’t that defeat the purpose?
Brooke and Julian spent three or four straight hours off in their own little land, sitting on a bench near the beach being moody. Their relationship talk went something like:
“Marry me?”
”Huh?” “Totally. Maybe.” “I’m your boy.”
“I’m sorry.”
Meanwhile, and not entirely in the real world either, Clay’s dead wife came back in his mind just like Q pestered Nate for a while; to make him crazy and turn down the new girl. They wouldn’t work anyway. Did anyone else find it a little weird that David is easily 45 and Quinn is about 19?
So, back to the show, Dan Scott and his lady-friend trick Rene` Richardson into a fake lie detector test and Dan plays mind games with her until she cracks.
“Cool!” Says Nathan, whose life is a mystery to himself, “Did she or didn’t she?”
To make a long, double-episode short, Rene` was lying and Dan Scott set Nate free. Still, Dan claims “the truth is only half” so if the truth was that she was a desperate, lying leech what is the other half?
OTH, thumbs up on the cool, new Dashboard Confessional.

“You’re Wrong, Spensa.”
The recap continues to show Brody’s most attractive side (“leave, we don’t care”) week after week. Thanks, producers. You capture what a sincere person Brody is very well.
In the scene “You’re wrong, Spensa,” Spencer tries to discuss Holly’s drinking problem but Heidi shushes him.
“Hey,” She slowly reads her line, “Not in front of Enzo.”
Enzo says, “Yeah.”
The viewers are thinking “wow! this is a pretty good MTV original drama!” Then Spencer’s evil(er) twin showed up and announced he was pregnant with Nathan Scott’s baby.
The people on the show who don’t need lines are alreay enough of party animals to get drunk and say stupid things to each other. Brody and Jayde were in a fight. K-Cav and Justin B were in a fight (kind of.) And someone gave Holly alcohol.
BT-Dubs, Brody, no one gets the point that “you’re done” unless you say “I’m done” 11 times. Hm. No cigar.
“Wouldn’t it be funny if Brody and I dated again?” K-Cav, the professional sociopath asks Stacy, Skanktender after she and Brody repeatedly denied getting back together. Yeah, Kristin, that would probably keep you on the show longer then, wouldn’t it?
