oh, the andy/colin scenes were always amazing to me! even the ephram/colin scenes were nice to see, or until colin went all psycho on him, but you know.
i totally see where you are coming from in terms of madison and tommy!!! i mean, barf to both of them, seriously! hell, i'd take colin over either any day of the week, but yea, his arc was still somewhat excessive in the second half of one. i really enjoyed his appearance in season two though. i thought those moments really made amy her most vulnerable, which allowed me to sympathize with her struggle of letting him go.
bright, to me, is honestly the brightest spot of season two!
i just love how deeply they delved into his character and really tried to stray away from the jock/jerk stereotype they made him out to be in season one! in fact, i can't wait for season three on dvd when hannah finally comes around, hee!
