[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 428445, member: 673"] That’s interesting to read that it improved with the Carmen Electra reboot. I haven’t watched it since it first aired but I was always under the impression that it was just a bad show overall. As you mentioned, it was quite an earnest show to begin with. I think it was supposed to be a more gentle drama, probably somewhere in the vein of what we’d later get with [I]Everwood[/I] and [I]Gilmore Girls[/I], but then the network decided they wanted a [I]Melrose Place[/I]. I’d love to hear a podcast or at least read interviews with the creators of soaps like these, where their original idea was mashed up by the network (I’d include [I]Blood & Oil[/I] and [I]Central Park West[/I] in this category).
