New Thread!

I'm happy for all you US TT fans

It's also great for you to get to see some behind-the-scenes stuff! That's one of my favorite parts of TT! When I got my s1 DVDs I watched the extras over and over again - esp. the blooper scenes

Anyhoo, does anyone know a good TT screencap site? (preferably with s4 caps???)

well, s5 is not my fave TT season but it was okay though --> many GREAT new characters!

So, it's time to talk about s4 then...
Who was your fave character in s4?
Who do you think had the best storyline & why?
Who did change for the good/bad?

chianna · 08-20-2004, 10:14 AM

S5 had more of a TT feeling to it than s4 so i prefered it like Jebony said s5 had some great new people.

I think my fav character in s4 was actually Ved or mouse i adored mouse. But Ved was like a cross between Lex and Jack to of my fav males yes he was a jerk but at least he was more interesting than the ken doll (sorry Jebony but Jay to me is so blah).

At this point i could do a huge character assaination on all the reasons the others annoyed me but i'll save you all the pain.

I think Salene had the best storyline it was real growth for her but i wish they hadn't paired up her and Pride it would have been interesting to just see them as friends more interesting than forcing to characters with no chemistry into a relationship.

Ebony changed for the worst thank god for s5 insane or not.

hey, no offence taken here

Yeah, I like s4 (and only s4!) Jay - I just

him and Ebony as a couple!

Anyhoo, here are my answers to the questions:
ho was your fave character in s4?
Ram! All the way! He was so funny! Well, ok, he was a lunatic but I liked that

I also liked Java. She was just evil and you could never really see what side she was on (mostly her own, I guess

)

Who do you think had the best storyline & why?
I agree with you, chianna. Salene actually made a huge part of the whole season. Um, the thing with Pride wasn't my favorite part either but it was way better than the whole Lex/Siva thing

Who did change for the good/bad?
For the good: already mentioned --> definitely Salene!

For the bad: I'm not gonna say Ebony

although she lost her "evilness" when she fell for Jay.
I was really torn between "evil Ebony" and "so-in-love Ebony" b/c I so wished for Ebony to finally find love and I was happy to see her starting to have feelings for Jay. Anyhoo, everything was okay until they met Amber

That's when I realized that Ebony was better off alone

She just turned into an "evil JEALOUS girlfriend" which was terrible!

Are there any news on the cast members?

dream_spirit · 08-21-2004, 08:46 PM

Who was your fave character in s4? Ram

Who do you think had the best storyline & why?
hmm....i always think Ebony is interresting, and i liked the techno's, specially Ved, but i'll go for Salene too, she was great!

Who did change for the good/bad
good: Salene
bad: Pride, Lex (he's getting softer every season) and i didn't like Amber at the end.

Lex? Yeah, he was such a good character in the first 2 seasons but I also liked him and Tai-San. (I think she was the one who surprised me the most when she came back in the s4 finale.)

As for Amber - she's never been one of my favorites because she's way too good for this world

but well, I started to really dislike her when she developed certain feelings for a Techno *GAH*

Nab · 08-23-2004, 02:54 AM

Who was your fave character in s4?

Ved. And Cloe. Okay, the two of them together. They were just like two normal (and at times annoying) teenagers with the hots for one another. Sometimes TT bugs me, because the characters are supposed to be teens but they'll have these relationships and act like 50 year olds. It was good to see some behavior like they had in S1.

Who do you think had the best storyline & why?

Sal. Yeah, she bugs me with her whinny ways at times, but then in S4 she really grew up and became a strong person. She didn't wait for others and really showed a sense of self and was a great leader.

Who did change for the good/bad? [/b]

Ebony changed for the bad and good. I like my b*itchy Ebs and toward the end, she had that whole jealous gf thing.

But, she was a hell of a lot nicer and even a good leader for a bit
Lex changed for the bad, he's getting too soft.
Amber changed for the bad. She had a baby and was worried about Bray at the start and then she hooked up with Jay?. Yeah, not good. Though, I've never liked her and her holier then thoough ways.
Trudy changed for the good. She's really become a stronger person and survied a lot in just four seasons.
Pride changed for the bad. The middle and end of S4? I

everytime he came on screen. What happened to nature and 'I love you, May.' Jerk and VR addict.

Really, everyone changed, most for the good.

Jebony · 08-23-2004, 11:41 AM

A.Film.By.Tiff gorgeous avatars! I snagged the Ellie/Jack one and the Guardian ones

Nab yeah, I know what you mean by referring to "old people relationships" - that's been buggin' me, too! And that's why I liked Lex/Tai-San and Ebony/Jay so much

I think it was a mistake the writers made in s4: Lex and Siva? Jay and ...please... AMBER?

Well, I don't really HATE Amber but, let's face it: she always gets the guys. It's always been like that from the very beginning.

I would have loved to see Ebony & Jay for another season but then Amber showed up again and Jay falls for her?! WTF? Hello? It's like "oh, Bray might not be coming back... what do I do? Hey, there's Jay and he would make a good bf/father" - sorry if that sounds harsh but that's how I see it...

Anyway, I think it's just a little weird that there's always this "either good or bad - thing" on the show; esp. with the "good ones". Amber's always been the "good one" and so have most of the others. Ebony's always been the "nothing but evil one" and eventhough I like her character for being "bad" it would've been nice to see her being lucky for a little longer than one season.
The only character who's been through that whole "good/evil" thing is Trudy (in s2/s3). And I also agree with Nab. She's changed so much during s4 and even more in s5!

*phew* enough said!

Oh, I also made two new wps:

Amber & Trudy, Find us

and a wp I made upon request (about 2 months ago) [spoiler s5]
Jay & Amber, Future

valerie928 · 08-23-2004, 07:30 PM

Nice wps Jebony! I really like them, especially the Amber and Trudy one.

Who was your fave character in s4?
Hmm...I liked them all.

Who do you think had the best storyline & why?
Hmm...I dunno. They all had pretty good storylines.

Who did change for the good/bad?
Salene-for the good. I don't think anyone changed for the bad. Well, maybe Pride. I hated how he got all VR addicted and became a weirdo almost jumping off buildings cuz he thought he could fly. -LOL

One thing I didn't like about s4 was that Jack was taken away again. He makes the show a lot more interesting, I think.

Nab · 08-24-2004, 01:34 AM

Jack disappears a lot, doesn't he? He's been getting kidnapped since S3. He gets kidnapped, comes back, gets kidnapped again, comes back...
