SMASH thread!

I thought he slept with Rebecca to save his damn show. He did it to bolster the ego of his star, not because he cares a jot for Rebecca. As in what you said below:



I'm sure later on he will tell Ivy that was the only reason he slept with Rebecca, so everything is really all right between he & Ivy.

Ivy, so desperate to be loved, and feeling as guilty as her self-absorbed self can be, will feel a smidge of guilt for sleeping with Dev, so she will choose to believe Derek.


sad, though. i wouldn't want someone who slept with someone else, regardless of what that reason is. but yeah, Ivy has a serious need to be loved. i honestly thought that Derek genuinely cared for her though. he obviously cares more for himself, which is in tune with the character.

Yes, this I don't get. Dev felt guilty for almost sleeping with R.J.. THAT is really why he proposed. He felt guilty and needed reassurance and for Karen to make things all right and sweep it all under the rug by saying she will marry him. But, if he was going to sleep with anyone at all, it should have been R.J., not Ivy. :confused3

agree with everything you said.


I had to rewind it the second time she said it and she said, "I can't even THINK about whether to marry you right now." They have problems. Rebecca pointed some of it out last week before the Bollywood number. He hasn't been quite there for or with her. And R.J. is a presence in their relationship. I don't have problems with her needing to think things through. Her feelings aren't obviously strong enough to say yes, in spite of it being tech week.

i stand corrected. :) i didn't re-watch it. and i don't think they need to be engaged, since they obviously have issues. but i didn't understand her reaction. now, i understood her reaction when he told her he almost slept with RJ. that information would be something she needs time to process.


THANK YOU!!! Someone else tired of this shrill one note storyline.

Hello, if she can't even be around Michael, because she's afraid she will get into his pants again, there is something wrong with her marriage AND her impulses. What is she, in high school? :rolleyes:

agree again. i just honestly don't care. i'm sure Julia will end up pregnant. she actually kind of looked pregnant last night, but there really hasn't been enough time for her to be pregnant and showing already.

other than that i HAVE liked Dev, i don't really care about any of their personal lives. for some reason, i just want to see them work on the show. but i guess that doesn't make a good drama. they are dealing with too many personal storylines. i'd like to see them cut some of those out (especially Julia) because it's just way too much. they don't have enough time to devote to certain storylines because they're trying to cover EVERYONE.
 
I really liked Dev, up until last night.

Plus, I think he's hot. :rotfl:

I'd be interested in learning more of the backstory of Karen and Dev ~ how they met, dated, moved in together, etc.
 
I bought the soundtrack today at Target. I am listening to it right now - love it!
 

Christian Borle (Tom) has been nominated for a Tony award for his role in Peter and the Starcatcher...very cool, and obviously a very talented cast :)

....Ivy and Dev sleeping together? No way.

The writers totally jumped the shark on that one. :furious:

....yeah, especially since it seemed like there was more sexual tension between him and that other chick [that he was kissing]that was at thier apartment....saw-ry, I forogt her name...
 
i.

....and Karen, he didn't ask you to marry him RIGHT NOW. idiot. i did not get her reaction at all, "i'm in tech." so? you can't be engaged while in tech? later on she said something about, "i can't marry you right now. i'm in tech." did he ask for right now? generally, isn't there an engagement period?

.

....I wanted to JUMP INTO MY TV SCREEN AND SMACK HER!!
 
I don't think so. I didn't realize there was a deluxe version. I just grabbed the CD off the rack. It was $9.99. What is the difference?

The Deluxe version has 5 extra tracks on it. :)

i hated last night's episode.

i thought Derek hated Rebecca. i guess he's in love with the fantasy of Marilyn and that's why. and i know he's supposed to be a player. but, that part just totally threw me off. and i felt a little sorry for Ivy.

BUT, not now that she's going to sleep with Dev. i get why SHE is doing it, but it makes no sense for his character. he's been all "noble" up to this point.

and Karen, he didn't ask you to marry him RIGHT NOW. idiot. i did not get her reaction at all, "i'm in tech." so? you can't be engaged while in tech? later on she said something about, "i can't marry you right now. i'm in tech." did he ask for right now? generally, isn't there an engagement period?

and yes, she's naive. but she's also clearly an idiot, which goes beyond naivety.

i'm so tired of the Julia/Michael storyline. i don't CARE. all of these people annoy me. somehow, i still like the show.

okay. Derek does not annoy me. but, i think that has more to do with the actor and that his character doesn't PRETEND to have redeeming qualities.

I too think Derek has a Marilyn thing going on. He didn't like Rebecca until he saw her as Marilyn. Same thing with Ivy.

Derek is my favorite character. He owns that he is a slime ball. I think it also helps that he is arguably the best actor on the show. All my friends IRL who watch the show all love Derek.

I don't know what it is about this show because when discussing with my IRL friends NONE of us love it...yet we are completely drawn to it. It is total can't miss TV and none of us can pin point what we like about it. The characters are unlikable. I'm a musical theater geek, one is a stage and film director and one hates musicals - we are all fascinated by the show.
 
...I agree - there is a kind of 'cuteness factor' going on there...

I saw him for the first time in the Sex & the City 2, movie and thought he was cute then. He played Carrie's very sweet man servant in Abu Dhabi.

Apparently, you've lost any Iowa-type naivete, too.

Maybe you can just download the one track as an MP3.

It's also up on YouTube as an .MP4 or .FLV. Do you have an iPhone you can download it to? I have a Firefox add-on which downloads stuff off YouTube, (for personal use & research only, of course.)

No, I can't get it on iTunes. I've bought a couple other songs (1001 nights, white baby grand, etc), but Run isn't available as a single.
