Default Is it getting better?
Some people seem to think tonights episode was the best so far. So is it progressing and getting better?

I guess it's because of Tara's sudden gameplay.

The editing wasn't so OTT today, it was more on a par with older series which is why I preferred it.

It was better in my opinion because the last 20 mins had not ott editing and Marcus didn't make an jokes which was good. Also tara added some serious to the show which was great. The first half was just as bad though IMO.

Agree.

Perhaps it is just a steady progression for Channel 5 in getting a balance to it. It could be really good at the end.

Cheers.

I was good. I just hope the producers or their minions keep an eye on forums like this (not just FB and Twitter) to pick up on what works and what doesn't.

It was great tonight, if they ditched the opening montage and the fauxmance it'd be great.

I think we are seeing a teething process. Remember they probally got peoples reactions before post production began today. They may just ignore us, but perhaps they listened.

The whole Lucien/Pamela/Amy thing bored the hell out of me but Tara and Paddy saved it tonight.

Yes, it's getting back on form, I'm really enjoying this series, hopefully they won't start focusing on a Lucien/Amy love story though and just stick the tactics and gameplaying/Darryn Versus Tara
