Catching up done, so now to post my thoughts on the first three episodes .

Pie-Lette

What are your thoughts about this episode? While I like how it gives the back story, as well as shows how Chuck comes into (or back into) Ned’s life, I feel that the episode is lacking something which the rest have. It is different. But it is a good first episode. It does make me want to keep watching and know more.

Favourite scene? Ned and Olive in Olive’s apartment when Ned comes to get Digby. I love it when she is asking him about being touched and touching things, then when she goes to get Digby’s leash and comes back and says ‘here’s your leash’.

Least favourite scene? The first dead guy who got bitten by the dog, I do not like the look of him. So I go with the scenes showing his face.

Favourite quote? “I suppose dying is good as excuse as any to start living.” - Chuck

Least favourite quote? “Do you have any last words, or thoughts, or requests?” - Chuck

Favorite character(s) this episode? Emerson.

Least favourite character(s) this episode? Dee Dee.

Questions and speculations? I wish I knew why Olive never questions why Ned has a dog when he says he is allergic. If someone who had a dog told me they were allergic so could not actually touch them, I would question why they actually had a dog then. Also is Ned Jewish? As if Chuck is, and Ned mother and Chuck's father's funerals were at the same time, I would say that he would be too. Otherwise it makes no sense for the two funerals to be at the same time. Unless Chuck was raised Jewish, even though her father was not.

Any other comments? Everyone seems to die in the first few minutes of this. I am sitting here watching this and thinking that it is actually kind of sad since there are all these things dying. So much happens in the start of this episode, I am not sure if that is a good or bad thing.

Rate this episode on a scale of 1 to 5 3.5. Not the best episode, although a good introduction, the start goes on for a bit. Also the things I mentioned in the above question are why I only gave the episode a 3.5.


Dummy

What are your thoughts about this episode? Different to the first episode, I quite enjoy this one. I like how we are only two episodes in, and already we have heard Olive/Kristin sing.

Favourite scene? Olive singing.

Least favourite scene? Olive’s thoughts about what Chuck and Ned could be up to.

Favourite quote? The narrator’s introduction to Olive singing.

Least favourite quote? When Emerson tells Olive the truth and says that Ned digs Chuck in a way he does not dig Olive.

Favourite character(s) this episode? Olive. She may be minor, but she got to sing in it, and if she had not been out walking Ned, Chuck, and Emerson may not have survived.

Least favourite character(s) this episode? The killer person.

Questions and speculations? That is Anna’s voice doing the commercial for the car correct? I just noticed it sounds like her.

Any other comments? No.

Rate this episode on a scale of 1 to 5 4. I would give it a five if Olive was in it more .


The Fun In Funeral

What are your thoughts about this episode? Winnie the Pooh and Sleeping Beauty references . I love that. The episode is good. One of my favourites. I like that they addressed the consequences of Ned’s actions when he chose to keep Chuck alive, instead of just ignoring the fact that he killed someone in the process.

Favourite scene? When Emerson gets stuck and Chuck compares him to Winnie The Pooh.

Least favourite scene? I liked the episode, I would not say that I have one.

Favourite quote? The storm/weather discussion between Ned and Chuck, which then leads in to say that Olive is also a storm brewing in the pie hole.

Least favourite quote? “I’m going to see if I’ve got some plastic wrap.” - Ned. Surprise kisses are much more fun than actually telling someone you are going to kiss them. Especially when if he does not have any, then he is saying he will kiss her but then not being able to do it. I am thinking too much about one little line, which is why I do not like it .

Favourite character(s) this episode? Olive and Emerson. They both had great lines.

Least favourite character(s) this episode? The twin brothers. Stealing from the dead is wrong.

Rate this episode on a scale of 1 to 5 5.
