I love your ideas, Jerry and Michelle. I agree that Ephram should've focused on piano and all that jazz (sorry bad puns), and maybe gotten together with someone in the program/course. It would've been interesting to see Ephram try to balance piano, school plus another musical person who has the exact same struggles. I think he would've been able to see (hopefully quickly haha) that it's hard to be with someone who has the same lifestyle as you-there's always a need for balance. I agree that Everwood can do 'dark' stuff (I love season 2 of its portrayal of Amy, Tommy etc), so why the need to go to soap opera drama with Madisongate?

It simply wasn’t necessary. I could see if the content and substance wasn’t there but it was. The ratings were always good. Unlike OTH, Dawson’s Creek, and Roswell, those shows had to sweat with nerves before every renewal. Not Everwood. It was solid in quality and ratings from start to finish.

I'm just glad that even despite Madison, the baby, Europe, Ephram and Amy found their way back to one another. Like you, Jerry I felt they were romantically intwined even when they weren't together Thats the power I think of a true connection and chemistry.

On other shows, like Dawson's Creek or Gossip Girl, when couples broke up, their connection was destroyed and what they had together was lost, so even if they did end up together, it rang hollow and disingenuous, but that wasn't the case with Ephram and Amy at all. From the moment they met to their final embrace, they were magic. __________________

Not sure how Berlanti did it, but for me, Ephram/Amy felt “together” from the moment they shared that epic mountain scene in The Pilot. They had an unstoppable connection. Greg and Emily were flawless together.
So true about those other shows. Bad writing. Drama had to include tearing down those pairings because it was too difficult writing them together due to lack of creativity. Only good quality shows have the capability of going there such as Everwood and Friends. |

I off and on watched Friends. I was too young when it started but I saw the later seasons with my mom (who watched the whole show) so I know how it ended. There I shipped Monica and Chandler and Rachel and Ross, but I have no idea if my shipping would stand if I saw it today (I was a boring shipper as a kid - you told me what to ship by showing me couples and thats who I wanted paired together)
Like you, Michelle, I felt Ephram and Amy had a connection from the beginning. I think I even shipped them as she was showing him Colin-in-a-coma I've always been curious if Berlanti had other plans for Ephram and Amy. i.e. Were there other actors/actresses who tried out for the role? I always like hearing those stories (ex, I just learned Liv Tyler was almost the star of the Princess Diaries movie, and gosh that would've been a totally different movie sans Anne Hathaway...and it launched AH's career!). __________________

Right with you... I shipped them with Colin in a coma too. Definitely! I am not sure how Greg Smith got the part outside of amazing talent… but I know with Emily, Berlanti knew her from Glory Days and said that was his Amy. In all of these years, I’ve never heard about other potential actors for their parts. There obviously had to be others who auditioned, even some famous actors or well-known actors. But I’ve never heard of who they were. |
