Just finished watching all the episodes

Post by hydro_27 » Apr 4th 2003, 3:34 pm

It's kind of depressing watching all the episodes again for the first time since they last aired on MTV. It takes me back to a time when I had no cares in the world. All I had to worry about at that time was if my homework was done and if I knew what I was wearing to school the next day. It's sad. I wanna go back to that time when the first episode aired. When I could really relate to what was happening on the show. Anyways does anyone happen to know where the school and Chases house really is. They mention that they are in Pittsburgh a couple times and I live near Pittsburgh and they definitely didn't shoot in Pittsburgh from what I remember. If anyone knows that would be great thanks. :)

Information about the shooting locations is available here

Although the show was set in Pittsburgh, it was shot in LA.

I just watched all the episodes and I have to say that this is an excellent show.Howewer,considering the fact that I am still rather fresh in this whole thing,I have a few questions about the show itself.These questions will undoubtedly sound pretty lame to you,my dear MSCL junkies.

1) In "Life of Brian" Rickie says that "Rayanne never called Corey".Well,why didn't she? Did she forget?Was she preoccupied?Drunk?

2) In the following episode(boiler room)Rayanne says to Jordan "you know you like her?Would it kill you to admit it?" How does she know that he likes Angela?Because that young fellow barely talks and I really didn't get the impression that he is friends with Rayanne(until later when they were more than friendly)

3)Exactly how much time does this episode cover?

4)In "Pressure" Jordan brings Angela to that house to have sex and that obnoxious slutty Cynthia is also there.So,isn't that kinda awkward? You know,my ex is here but hey I'm gonna have sex with the red head anyway?I think it's a bit unrealistic that he didn't feel even the slightest discomfort with the fact the blondie is there.He didn't even recognize her existance.

5)When Angela asked Sharon about her and Lyle,if they used protection,it just hit me(I don't know why :? )that Jordan is not the kind of guy who practices safe sex( like in "Betrayal" when he ummed Rayanne I'm sure they used some kind of protection.....Oh yeah,get real).

Okay that's it for now :roll:

1) Rayanne told Rickie that she had been adviced by her counselor not to go to the World Dance Happening. Rickie got a bit upset over this, but Rayanne calmed him down and promised she would call Corey to "explain the whole thing". As it turned out, she never did make that call and let both Corey and Rickie down.

Rayanne is the sort of person that lives for the moment and rarely plans ahead. She probably got caught up in something (preoccupied as you say, Sick Boy) and forgot the whole thing. It is not the first time she made a promise she was later been unable to keep. By the time she promised Rickie to call Corey, I seriously doubt she even had his phone-number or even knew for sure that Corey did in fact have a phone at all. Such mundane (albeit practical, even crucial to keeping such a promise) details are something Rayanne is likely to overlook and mindlessly bypass.

2) Rayanne spotted Jordan's attraction to Angela early on (Dancing in the Dark). Remember in "The Pilot", when Angela and Rayanne are being pushed into the police car, Jordan happens to walk by. He stops and says out loud (more to himself than his friends, I think): "Hey, I know that girl!". So, already at that point, it is clear that Jordan is not completely oblivious to Angela. The next day he even stops her in the hallway, saying: "out on bail?" So yes, I think Rayanne has figured Jordan out and made up her mind about Jordan. Also, they have a common friend in Tino. Both Jordan and Rayanne know Tino and so maybe the tend to circulate the same social crowd...at least occasionally. Space, time and events are often truncated in TV-shows and everything can not be covered. So yes, I think Rayanne and Jordan knows eachother better than what was accounted for in the show. However, I do not think that any one of them have romantic feelings for the other. That "umm" thing was something that just happened, I think partly because they were drunk and partly because, well, ...I guess... available to eachother at a time they both needed to let out some steem.

3) Hmm...difficult to answer. I think you would have to see the episode again with particular focus on the timeline...

4) Yeah, I agree with you. It does seem weird. On the other hand, I think that Cynthia in many ways is the female counterpart of Jordan. She sleeps around and judging from her demeanour she would easily be described as "shallow", "ignorant" or even "mindless" by the common observer. I think Jordan has picked up this quality about her too, and so he can readily ignore her. They are the kind of people that would have an "unwritten treaty" in which the policy is that they can both sleep with others without feeling guilty about their former relationship (or even current, if that is the case; Jordan has been spotted talking to Cynthia :-) ).

5) Remember that both Rayanne and Jordan were drunk at the time. When you are drunk you are a lot less likely to consider using protection.

Sorry. I confused Cynthia Hargrove with Casey Hall. You know, that woman on the Sophomore Girls poll-list as the "Hottest sophomore babe" in "The Zit". In the same episode, Jordan is briefly seen talking to her in english class:

Excerpt from the transcript of "The Zit":
Rinaldi : [reading from _The Metamorphosis_]
[while reading, these are the different shots of the characters:
Angela walks into school and sees Jordan talking to Casey Hall;

wow, no wonder you have so many thoughts about the show. I used to watch my favorite shows and movies over and over like that too. Now I like to put a little more time between viewings because I just got sick of some of my favorites.
