It could be argued that the second episode of a TV series is even harder to get right than the pilot. The work a premiere puts in to getting viewers just hooked enough to come back for a second week, could easily be undone with a lackluster follow-up. Luckily, Pitch is showing no signs of hitting any such slump. In fact, “The Interim” was a step above the already fantastic pilot – the dialogue went from a bit overdramatic to realistic, and it proved Pitch is not a show that needs to rely on the same device every episode in order to maximize emotional punch. As much as I loved the Dad Twist, seeing him week-to-week in “ghost” form, or having another twist thrown in the mix, would quickly have turned this beautiful bit of storytelling into a …show more content…
It’s causing tension between her and the team, it’s distracting them from playing the game, and it’s putting a great deal of pressure on Ginny to be more than just a pitcher. She tries her best to be “just one of the guys” and she holds her own. However, let’s be honest, there’s only so much Ginny could do to in the face of such abundant male fragility. The persistent buzz of sports news journalists and their incessant opinions in the background of nearly every scene, was an excellent way to generate and maintain the friction running rampant throughout the episode. It’s a wonder Ginny didn’t completely lose her shit when Rachel, one of the many journalists, tried to pull that “woman to woman” nonsense on her. I am in awe of Ginny’s ability to remain so …show more content…
Kylie Bunbury is a joy to watch in all of her scenes; she’s hilarious while crushing her teammates male fantasies about hooking up with other players, charismatic when interacting with almost any other character, and intensely captivating when standing on the pitcher’s mound. But the raw and genuine sincerity she brings to Ginny in the scenes with Kimmel is simply stunning. What’s better is how it never felt that the writers were using Ginny’s character as a mere mouthpiece to talk about the show’s parallels to gender politics in the real world. Everything Ginny said felt very authentic to her current experience; to the new world she is trying her best to navigate
That’s why their personalities were delimited and we knew what they wanted. The problem with season 2 is that characters have been the same, haven’t reacted as expected or simply we have not seen them grow as expected. Have we seen more flaws? Yes, and they were expected. One of the greatest things about characterization during season one was that, as viewers, we knew the characters were not perfect, and that was what made them endearing. But what happened with season 2? Let’s see...
As the pilot continues, there are some good plotlines, but there’s simply not enough anticipation, suspense, tension, and/or romance. The pilot relies a bit too much on dialogue.
One of the things I liked the most about first season is how everything was linked somehow, how the end could stand by itself and if there wasn’t a season 2, viewers would still get a cool ending. There were questions obviously, and that is the first issue of season 2:
Meaning it has to flow from one episode to the next, like a good paper flows from paragraph to paragraph. Suits does this like no other. Every episode builds on one another and this helps in keeping the audience attention. Skipping ahead and watching episodes without watching the previous leaves you lost in a dead man zone. There have been five seasons so far and by far the best season has been the last one. The climax of the series so far has definitely been season five. Mike has been from lawyer to investment banker and back to lawyer, in no way or form has it been a smooth ride. In season five, thinking it was finally over Mike is arrested for fraud as he was resigning from being a lawyer. Always wondered how long it would last before it finally came tumbling down for Mike and Harvey. The final episode of season five leaves you wanting more. After thirteen episodes it ends with Mike going to prison, and the firm that Jessica fought so hard to preserve, deserted. The cliff hanger finish, though I am now a fan of them, has the audience already wondering what lies ahead for season six. Will Mike still be in prison, does Harvey come back to the firm, or is it all over just like that. We will just have to watch and
Furthermore, a significant comedic element within the show is emphasis on the characters most unflattering features, enhancing the boganism as the one of the main themes in the show. An example within the show is the comedic element of Gina Riley’s character Kim, in her mind she is a size 10 ‘sexy horn-bag’ that in reality is a size 16 fashion disaster, who wears trashy, tacky and ill-fitting clothes. In comparison with American version, Kim, portrayed by Selma Blair doesn’t have to squeeze into a size 10 as she is at least a size 8, also she is attractive and trashy enough to be a believable ‘tabloid queen’ like Paris Hilton (Turnbull, 2008, p.115.), which really brings the show away from the relatability audiences find so appealing.

The government funded 3.6 billion in services for the close the gap program with the key focus to strengthen partnerships and relationships with Indigenous people which was considered a fundamental component in achieving the close the gap objectives ("Close the Gap", 2017). The strategies used to implement the close the gap program were constructed in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health plan 2013-2023 which outlines that the implementation will be conducted and broken down in seven phases with the clear objectives to track targets and accountability as well as ensuring the connections to land, culture, spirituality, family and community (Australian Government, 2013).

What makes this series so thrilling and captivating is that the plot isn’t stale or tired. When people think of science fiction, they think of robots or aliens in space. In this show, humans are the aliens on their own planet trying to figure out how to adapt to this new land on their own. This show is more than just a post-apocalyptic world with a bunch of people trying to kill each other. It focuses on the aspects of human life and the lengths people would go to in order to survive. There are many instances where Clarke and Bellamy must decide if saving one of their own is worth killing 20 of the enemy, or deciding who can be the most beneficial. Eventually, the Grounders and the Sky people come together to fight a whole new enemy called, Mount Weather. It’s through wars and human instinct that these people understand what it means to be human and carry the responsibility of human life. All the characters change dramatically over the course of the current three seasons, some for the better and some even turn against their own side. All episodes end in a cliffhanger, which inevitably keeps the audience coming back and expecting something greater and more elaborate than what they’ve already watched. No two episodes are the same and there is a dramatic event in each of the episodes that changes the expected direction of the plot. It is because of these reasons “The 100” has a 100% approval rating from Rotten Tomatoes and averaged an 8/10 on
Every series needs to have an objective or goal that drives the show. The pilot should give the audience a clear vision of what future episodes will look like. In the current presentation, it’s not clear what the show is really about. Too little information is provided. Compare this to the X-FILES. In that show the protagonist had a strong backstory and motivation driving his need to find his sister, but every show investigated and explored a new paranormal event. The goal was clear and the format was clear. In this show, so far, it’s not well-defined.
In the short story “the first day” the protagonist finds out her mother wants the best for her. The protagonist sees that her mother wants her to go to the best school, how does the reader see this? The reader sees that the mother wants her child to go to the school by the church, but when arriving there they find out the daughter isn’t allowed to go to that school because of where she lives. “then she shakes her head and says we are at the wrong school, that we should be at T-Walker-Jones.”. “I want her to go here, if I’da wanted her someplace else, I’da took her there”. She wants her to be in the school in front of the church which is a very special place for the mother. She doesn’t want her daughter to go to the brand new
LVMH has a wide range of consumers from different backgrounds. It is imperative that they are aware of religion, race, culture, and buying habits in every country. For instance, worldwide people are more dependent on the Internet, signifying that the methods of how people purchase goods are changing.
After conducting an extensive, comprehensive review and assessment of the immunization data at the Florida Department of Health Lee County with my preceptors, an evidence-based practice systemic literature search was conducted to contrast and compare the similar practice seen in other Departments of Health around the country. The systemic search process was also done for the evaluation and application of the scientific evidence surrounding practice of the use vaccines and our current immunization process as a whole (Schmidt, Brown, 2015).The idea of adopting and proposing, activities, events and plans, when there is compelling,
I aspire to attend Belin Blank, a driving reason being is I would like to practice new forms of art, as well as expand on the techniques that I already use. I only occasionally have a chance to practice art at home, drawing mainly. This would be a chance to work on other art forms like sculpting, which I haven’t had the chance to practice in three years. There are some forms of art that I never have had the chance to practice, whether because of lack of chance, or because I run out of time during a normal curriculum. I’m always open to trying new projects, and this may be a chance to try them. I’m interested in trying some projects that I’d otherwise be unable to try.
The story is not very clear for the first couple episodes. A lot happens in the first few episodes with no apparent linear progressive story. The story ties itself back around in a way that is not expected. The biggest thing that kept me watching through the entire series was the fact that there was not a dry moment at all. From the time that the episode starts, to the time that the title appears on the credits screen, continuous jaw-dropping moments occur. A big issue that I had with the way the television series
As part of work allocation, managers would assign employees with objectives and tasks to be completed during the evaluation period based on their existing Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (KSA). Managers would come to recognise such KSAs through monitoring of their employees work activities of the previous evaluation period. With partially (or fully) changed objectives for the new evaluation period, managers might identify new KSAs that were not known to them previously. In addition, managers might realise that employees lack certain required KSAs as well.
