| What the hell happened? |
First time ever: NO spoiler alerts! LOL
It seemed to take forever to get here, but season five is officially over here in the states. I purposely stayed away from my favorite fan sites because I did not want any spoilers, so I had no idea what to expect. While there were some nice affectionate scenes between Ross and Demelza, overall the whole series left me feeling somewhat cheated...… cheated of a GOOD story.
I hated the whole first few episodes with Morwenna sneaking around trying to spend time with her son. I did not like the whole Jamaica thing. I did not like the hinting that Dr. Ennis would be interested in Kitty. The only thing I did like was watching Jack Farthing do his best work as crazy George!! Don't get me wrong - I still loved seeing Aidan on my screen and the rest of gang from the other four seasons, but it wasn't enough to make me want to add the DVD to my collection.
To sum it up, I believe Debbie Horsfield did a pretty good job on the screenplay for the first four seasons, but as a storyteller, she clearly is not up to snuff. Almost everything about her script was plain old bad writing. Poor Winston, no doubt, is rolling in his grave.
