[QUOTE="Werewillie Oleson, post: 318346, member: 8"] To me, Monica's crash looks like a cliff hanger of the week, but without the havoc of Blake and Daniel Reece's plane crash of the week. Ironically, this lack of panic - the last moment "Lindsay Blaisdel" scream notwithstanding - juxtaposes the extremely dangerous situation. In soap terms a no-win situation because she was going to die [I]or[/I] survive miraculously, Moldavia style. And I didn't think she was going to die for a character like Neil Kittredge. Alexis' [I]poor little rich girl[/I] act doesn't ring true at all and in many ways it looked much worse than Monica's scene. However, they actually show the crash and while it seemed even more unlikely that [I]she [/I] was going to die, the chance for survival was a bit more realistic. But that doesn't change the fact that she was[I] in[/I] the water, in a very realistically dangerous situation. It was absolutely impossible for her to survive without any damage to her hairdo and make-up. The very ordeal of being trapped inside a car underwater seems more suspenseful than the obligatory is-she-going-to-die-or-not, and in that regard it's kinda similar to the cabin fire cliff hanger of season 3. And with my vote for Dynasty the current score is... THE COLBYS - 21 DYNASTY - 14 To be continued.... [/QUOTE]
