Benjamin McKenzie - Ryan Episode Discussion: The Distance - Page 2

Watched it last night and can i just say WOW! Ryan has this whole hot sexy scruffy thing going on.

Ryan: Ben's performance in this episode was great. You could see that Ryan had matured over the few months he'd been away from Newport. He had a stable job, was supporting a family and even though he was missing the OC he kept it quiet.

Ryan/Theresa: I'm more a fan of this ship than the whole Ryan/Marissa thing. Theresa could see how much Ryan was missing Newport, you could see it in her face. From the first scene in which they were together, it seemed as though she knew Ryan was acting like he thought they could be together even though he didn't really love her. She knew he was doing it for the baby. It was so heartbreaking when she called him and told him she'd lost the baby. I can't wait till he finds out she hasn't, that's going to be one explosive episode!

Ryan/Seth: Ah the bonding. It was good to see Ryan and Seth acting the way they did when it all began. There was the angst at the start but then near the end there was all the smiling. I liked the smiling

. I loved the scene where Ryan was going to his cab and Seth was trying to decide what he should do and they both ran back towards the door and decided to go back to Newport.

It was a great episode ^_^ I hope the next ones just as good

I know it was really sad....but the tension and confusion thats going to arise when he finds out about the baby- it'll be a cliffhanger type episode .... we will probobly have to wait ages again btwn seasons to find out if its really his

Just have the time to sit down and watch the episode. And, oh, my what a gret episode it was..

Ben's acting was good, it's good to see him more comfortable by acting his Ryan role.. And he looked really may add

Theresa did a awful thing about telling Ryan that the baby had died even if was for the best. I can't wait to see what will happen when he'll find out.

The thing I love most in the show is the Ryan and Seth conversations. Awww, the scene when Ryan had to leave and Seth was just sitting there on the railing twitching with his foot, it was so amusing to watch..

I can't wait for the next episode, how Marissa is going to find out that Ryan is back in Newport..I'm all giddy now

I simply love the episode. Do I have to say I was crying while watching it?

The whole R/T/baby scene was so painful. At least Ryan and Seth are back. YAY.

An old thread but what the hey. It's on Australia tv tomorrow night.!!

I've seen it - and I must say Ryan/Ben looked VERY VERY HOT, especially in the scene where he took out the trash.

Well, it aired last night - what did all the Australian viewers think?? I'm pleased that Channel 10 didn't "edit" any scenes (they have a nasty habit of doing that).
