Tiffany was killed in the pilot. It was August 25th 2019. That was a Sunday. The younger Fan sisters started the new school year on September 3rd. That was a Tuesday. Wasn't Carson charged with killing Lucy and they put him on trial in like two weeks later????? Come on! Ace was the hero of Horseshoe Bay on October 3rd 2019.

And he still is!

I honestly don't know what to say anymore. Their "compressed" timeline is stupid.

the compressed sl makes 0 sense.

Yeah it does and now I wonder if it seriously worked against them. I wonder if The CW thought about pushing TS to fall to pair with ND but I wonder without the ability to do real crossovers at the moment kinda screwed them.

It just doesn't add up. I know that was a corny joke.

Yeah I like how they ignore real world events to avoid pinning down a timeline

They tried to use the pandemic as an excuse. Nobody said a series has to address the pandemic.

You're probably right!

That's a very promising review!

**broken crown** · 05-21-2022, 08:29 PM

I'm very excited to see the show, but not be too emotionally invested if you know what i mean. Like I just want to watch and not worry about writing insufficiencies (if possible).

**gold-steps** · 05-21-2022, 08:36 PM

Yeah I know what you mean! I guess it's possible that I might get sucked in, but I probably won't be as attached to it as ND.

**broken crown** · 05-21-2022, 08:38 PM

Like I watch plenty of shows and love them...but I'm just not incredibly emotionally invested and that's a good thing!

ETA:

Screenshot the new promos from the press site:

After JTV ended. I thought I was done with truly being dedicated to a show, then ND came along. I didn't even expect to care about it like I do. JTV will always be one of the best written series in the history of the CW. Where does Tom live? I don't remember it being mentioned?

**broken crown** · 05-22-2022, 08:18 AM

I have no idea where Tom lives. I'm guessing they'll establish that in 1x01 (I hope)!
