Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage - General Discussion

[wendyg]

I'd rather wait a couple of months and then have a steady stream of new episodes than stop and start for the holidys, the Super Bowl, the inauguration, etc.

No need to stop for 2 of those & even missing 1 episode isn't too bad but 2 months between episodes is excessive in the extreme. When most people have some sort of recording device and/or multiple streaming services it is way beyond ridiculous.

It's been a while since tv has been regular, hasn't it? I miss the days when there weren't so many production stop s and starts.

But first thing sslowed down because of COVID lockdowns. Then the strike. And now the fires in CA. 

I don't kno wif that accounts for all of it, but I think some of the scheduling disruptions are from things beyond network preference.

There have always been breaks in seasons because networks have to air 22 episodes between October and May so they can't air a new episode every week. Although I think there used to be more shorter breaks where you'd have one or two weeks without a new episode. Now networks seem to prefer to have less but longer breaks in the season.

Back in the day half-hour comedies would run 30-35 episodes in a season.

I thought we knew in the BBT that Georgie was married multiple times and has become somewhat jaded as a result.

 

I'm not sure I like the tango and I defo don't like the show's musical puntuation.  In general, I'm really likeing everything about the show except Connor (whose oddity seems formulaic) - nothing against the actor, I just don't think the role should be there.

I am usually pro-tangoes, but the opening tango on this show is terrible and I wish they'd get rid of it. It also doesn't at all fit the tone of the rest of the show.

I couldn't agree more. I wince every time it comes on and fast forward through it. I usually love any excuse to insert a tango into something, but it feels like chalk on a blackboard here.

If they got rid of the tango they'd probably have them  doing a mambo.

The state dance of Texas is a square dance. It might be fun (once) to see eight of the characters do a square dance.
