We have a thread for a favorite, epi, but what about the one you could have lived without. I know most of them have some redeeming facet, but taken as a whole, did you loathe Out of the Past or hate What's Left Behind?

For me, it was Arrested Development. I didn't care for the tennage vampire (and not in an "ooh.. he's the villain" kind of way) he wasn't sympathetic. And, all I could think about while watching that epi when he was on-screen was "Why does this guy have acne?" Vamps' skin is dead; it doesn't produce oil and it it can't sustain bacteria. :x

I thought the teenage vampire was icky and creepy. But I liked other aspects of Arrested Development. Like Josef meeting Beth for the first time. And Mick and Beth's talk about him avoiding her.

The episode I liked least was 12:04. There were a couple moments, like the ending, that was good. But I could do without that episode.

Bing-damn-O, Eris... Same least favorite ep... same exact reason... plus I didn't like the Ma and Pa Kettle parents... way too stereotypical midland drones... and the trampy daughter also just a stereotype. No interest generated by any of those characters nor by the actors who played them, IMO.

Redeeming features?

Mick and his henley, the kiss, and did I mention Mick and that henley?

LoL, GA, I thought Shepherd was one of the better villains on the show.. that voice :shock: :shock: :shock: . He was the anti-Mick where the "stalking" took a much darker turn.

They all have redeeming moments. But overall, I was less engaged by What's Left Behind. It may grow on me, but at the present, it's the one I've watched least.

Lucky

My least favorite is probably Click. Didn't like the feel of it at all. There's not a whole lot I did like about it besides of course looking at Mick!

Arrested Development was my least favorite. The teen vamp was creepy, and the escorts were annoyingly slutty.

Click runs a close second.

I didn't get Click. The whole premise made no sense to me. Mick suddenly out in the open ala Face Book. What happened to I should keep a low profile 'cause I'm a vampire? Lots of issues with Click.

Oh shoot...every time I try to choose a least fav, I see Alex in one of the scenes flashing that smile of his, and, well, I think you catch my drift

But if I HAVE to choose, it would have to be either Arrested Development (same reason...hated the villain) or Click.

Sorry, but my least favorite was The Ringer. I don't think I have watched it more than 2 times. Thought the Morgan thing was boring. I did like the banter between Josef and Mick in Mattolo's house, though. This one left me very puzzled.

I was going to say Click. I didn't like the whole feel of it but I so loved the Josef/Beth discussion I'm not sure it's my least favorite.

I don't like 12:04 very much. I would say that is one of the episodes I remember the least.

All the eps have something in them that make me smile/happy. This is so difficult because there really are terrific scenes in each episode, even my least fave.

Hmmm...Click is probably my least favorite. I did watch it recently though and enjoyed it more after stepping away from it for awhile. Still....there's nothing more annoying than the fakey-fake backdrop when Mick jumps up on the rooftop to perch. GAH...I can't even begin to share my hatred for that fake-a** background! :x I mean, good gravy people. Plus, I hated the sleazy guy who murdered Tierney and that a-hole photog. So glad he was eaten by the paparazzi vamps. Heh. Also, as fun as the beginning is....it's stupid-looking. Sorry.

That said, Click had cool stuff like Mick's perch (sans stupid backdrop. LOL), the paparazzi vamps, and IMO, one of the best scenes in the series...Beth and Josef discussing what to do about the photographer. Jason/Josef has never looked more hot to me! Sheesh!

If we're going for fakey-fake backdrops, you don't get much more obvious than the green screen picnic at the end of FtP. I was actually chatting with Lucky while that epi aired the first time, and I remember pointing out all of the "perfect" points of the background that just made me :x . It looked like George Lucas had gotten a hold of the scene.

Perfect points? What does that mean? If you please...

The lighting is too perfect for moonlight. It falls squarely on everything like set lighting. The sky looks like a painting and there's a crisp delineation between Mick and Beth's bodies and the backdrop, like they're painted in.
