OK, I AM GOING TO STEP OUT ON A LIMB HERE.
The McPhee character ROCKED. She represents the LG15 audience. She pointed out a lot of ridiculous things about the show.
"Do you guys film everything?"
"Hey, where are your parents?"
"He had quite the imagination"
At 3:58 this may be the 2nd longest episode ever (after On the Run). it didn't feel too long though. the music was no worse than other selections, its inoffensive pop, nothing edgy about it though. It's no Since U Been Gone by Kelly or She Bangs by the Hungster!
Mcphee got a lot of camera time -- but drunkenness of a friend or friends (even underage ones like the Beast) is often an excuse to make new friends. in some ways this episode was the most real teen like episode of lg15 i've seen. bree came off as a bit shy and immature as per her character in comparison to mcphee.
Oh, and i'm fairly sure that what jonas was going to do to daniel was put his hand in a nice pot of warm water.
true. the true vlog videos are the "authentic" ones, but the action videos like this (and the unthinkable happened) only hold up the weakest pretense of being a vlog. perhaps it would be better if they drop that pretense altogether for the action videos -- that might seem radical, but if the construct of the show was changed so that some of the vids are in-character vlogs, and others are more traditional tv drama style to stitch together the vlogs, it might be a better way to tell the story.Another comment i read on this video by smashing: And even though I'm just repeating myself at this point, there's really no realistic reason why the characters would make, edit, and post this video. I think the creators believe the reason is the characters want to entertain their "fans" at lonelygirl15.com, but if you follow that logic it either breaks down or you have to start talking about parallel universes to explain the magick.
