Thanks for the new thread!

Going back to the other thread, I agree with the last poster about Henry being all Abby has had for years, then goes back to the Island and re-discovers all her old bonds and friendships she had when she was younger.

Even from the very first episode I was kind of on the Henry/Abby train. I always wanted them to get together. It was completely obvious from the very first episode Henry had a thing for Abby, and I even think Abby might of too. Remember in the first episode when Abby was sitting with Beth and Lucy and they asked Abby if anything happend between them (her and Henry) like hook-up? And Abby was kind of hesitant at first then Henry came up behind her and the conversation dropped? Idk, I have a soft spot for best friends falling in love, lol but obviously now we know that can't happen.

Yeah, I've always been a sucker for the best friends turned lovers scenarios....but I didn't feel it with Henry and Abby. I found myself really liking Henry and Trish together as the episodes went on and I especially enjoyed Jimmy and Abby's story.

But I did always feel like Henry loved Abby so much more than just a friend. Guess a little too much

I was always for Jimmy/Abby.

Never felt the Henry/Abby vibe.

I liked Henry and trish but later on got the vibe he was more worried about Abby than Trish and when JD was found dead I knew Henry killed him and I wanted Trish FAR away from him.

Out of all the characters that died I wanted Chloe, Cal, Trish to live. I wanted Trish to live just to stab and get back and Henry. She deserved that more than Abby. Trish deserved to be the one to kill Henry.

I wish Shea died instead. Let trish raise Madison. And really never got the hate some had for trish. She never did anything wrong to me. liked her after Chloe and Cal.

No problem, Susan.

So Christopher Gorham has been tweeting, answering questions about the show. Here are some of the responses...

Quote:

"Who all did Henry actually kill? /Me: I THINK Cousin Ben, Priest, Hunter, Richard, Katherine, JD, Malcom, Trish n Sully. I may have missed 1 or 2."

Quote:

This time asked was Henry in love with Abby..."If Henry could, he would marry Abby in a second." - Jon Turteltaub to me in ep. 1

Oh my...'Is Abby going to have your baby? Did you secretly sleep with her while she was unconscious... and now that baby wants blood! /Me: I had the same thought. Wouldn't that be amazing? I mean horrible.

Quote:

Did Henry ever actually love trish or was she just a pawn? /Me: Great question! I believe Henry thought he loved Trish, or thought he could. Until he couldn't. After JD, Trish's murder was the most difficult, emotionally for him. I think he saw it as a painful means to the end.

Oh, and he also says the DVD will include special features, behind-the-scenes stuff etc.

At first I thought that Henry would leave Trish for Abby..which kind of happened but not in the way I envisioned. Though I like H/T, A/J coupling. I still think Trish shouldve lived, her wound wasnt that severe that she would die instantly, just a nitpick that will take me a while to get over.

Beautiful Blur · 07-13-2009, 02:07 PM

I definitely hoped that when her body went missing -- as Jimmy and Abby saw -- (even though Wakefield placed it on the alter) that she was faking it, then come back and be the one to kill Henry. lol

In defense of her "death" -- she could've had severe hemorrhaging or something. He could've destroyed some major artery...

ETA: This video is truly sad...wow...

YouTube - you're leaving me behind (trish/henry)

Focuses on Trish's death and her realization of who Henry really is.

semmanclana · 07-13-2009, 02:21 PM

he stabbed Trish in her side then as she was dying slowly stuck it in deeper to finish her off. SO it would have killed her.

But trish should have been the one to kill Henry. I wanted her to show up in the end to pay henry back.

**lovely elizabeth** · 07-13-2009, 02:22 PM

That's a sad but yet amazing vid.

Karim Zreik (karimzreik) on Twitter

I believe he's the producer and he's answering questions on twitter!

**bad reputation** · 07-13-2009, 03:16 PM

I def. liked Henry/Abby together. I love Jimmy/Abby, but I liked Henry/Abby a bit more, but after like the 4th episode I kind of figured that it def. wasnt gonna happen because Henry seemed really happy with Trish. I never really liked him and Trish together, not until the last few episodes. And obviously once Henry was found out to be her brother and killer I kinda dropped that real fast. LMAO.

I also liked Cal/Chloe but not that much, and really not until their last episode. I always liked the idea of Chloe/Sully more.

And Trish/Sully so should have lived and been together. haha. That would have made me happy too.

Though, I liked the show for more than just the couples.

cherrios · 07-13-2009, 03:24 PM

I wonder if Henry had been mentor under someone who wasn't a psychotic serial killer like his father would he had been able to live a normal life with Trish?

And I refuse to believe that Sully died, he got off safely with Madison and Shea.

same old story · 07-13-2009, 03:38 PM

I would really like to know how he killed Katherine.

I never really liked Henry, but probably because I find it hard to like any Chris Gorham characters after being sooo annoyed with Harrison in S2 of Popular. There's just this original annoyance I have when I start watching, and he usually doesn't play characters with much range or personality [they tend to be similar characters, though I don't think any of the other ones have ever murdered a bunch of peeps] to win me over or change my initial reaction of him.
