There's some semi-important stuff about why the Fades can materialise, plus, one of the gang snuffs it, and Paul discovers he has a new power. If you really can't bear to watch -- and it <i>is</i> pretty ordinary -- I can email you the details, or even put them here in the comments.Paul Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979646022056755322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-48901364296743077442012-01-25T12:45:52.026-05:002012-01-25T12:45:52.026-05:00If I skip this one, will the next episode make sen...If I skip this one, will the next episode make sense?

Some pea brained buddy of mine insisted I stick with it. He reckoned he had a feeling in his water that the show would suddenly blossom. He was right. Unfortunately, he bailed after episode three, and I ended up having to talk <i>him</i> in to giving the back three a chance. But we shouldn't have to put up with this level of blandness in a six episode season. They should be struggling to fit the ideas in, not filling the minutes with boring crap none of us can even remember.Paul Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979646022056755322noreply@blogger.com
