So... I've finally brought myself to order season 5 dvds. I've refused it for a long long time and I know I've kept saying that I would never watch it. No backbone! LOL I guess it can't be that bad if I get to see hot David... when I get the dvds and start to watch them I'll be sure to post here of course. I must be crazy LOL Well, at least nobody will be able to tell me I'm not a true fan or don't "get" ML or Maddie and David if I haven't seen season 5 ;D and I'm not talking about you, Virginia  |

My box set is here. I'm feeling ambivalent about this LOL But I solemnly swear I will watch it - all of it - and give honest reviews. But I want to finish my current fanfic piece first which is a light season two piece, and I shouldn't spoil that mood.

My final thoughts on season five:
Well, I can't say I'm happy now, but at least I'm not sad... hehe, sorry, couldn't resist. All in all, I must say that my prejudices about season 5 were mostly confirmed: somewhere along the way they "lost" me. One episode I see hopeful notes, teh next episode - without any explanation - I see Maddei and David acting cold and detached with each other, like they're througher than through with each other. I could accept it if I saw a constant development (even if a deteriorating one) of their relationship, but the mood jumps forward and back without rhyme or reason. Sorry, but the farther the season goes (there are a few exceptions) the lesser I root for them.
Good thing of course, that the final arc and the actual ending don't really affect me.
Is there anything to like about season five? Oh yes, of course there is. Here we go:
1. David's body at its best - pure eye candy, as long as they don't dress him in baggy shirts & blousons.
2. Agnes in sexy lingerie.
3. The ladder speech.
4. The interaction between David and Richie - the Addison boys always melt my heart.
5. The bloopers.
6. Shirts & Skins
7. David kissing Jamie.
8. MacGillicuddy and Bert making up.
That's gotta be it more or less...

Hot Bruce! I enjoyed the shower scene in I See England. . Bruce and Cybill having fun. The way he hugged her and comforted in Yuk even though it went downhill from there. The way they sat with their hands entwined later in the episode.
The final scenes in Shirts and I See were titillating and promising although they seemed to be forgotten in the next episode.
The way Maddie was looking at him when he was sleeping in the elevator in Yuk.
I loathed Womb and the way David was talking about the nannies. And if course the scene where she loses the baby is worst scene in TV history. But I like the way he is comforting her by her bedside. Also how he stays by her side in the hospital in I See England.
I hated all the stupid chases that were not funny.
I disliked how Maddie seemed to lose her classiness while David lost hus humor and zest for life.
And of course the last episodes NEVER happened.

Of course not LOL oh good observation about David losing his humor - they had their bantering also in season 5, yes, but it was without humor adn warmth mostly, agree. Okay, there are maybe a few more moments than I mentioned; those were just the ones that came to my mind without wrecking it. And I refrained from naming the scenes I hate... would have been way too many.  |

Their bantering was more bitter and hurtful not cute sexy and funny. Also even though I understand why David changed there was onky his physical beauty that was attractive. The fun loving, exciting man with a wicked sense of humor and a love of life is gone. In his place is a shell of what we fell in love with. And Maddie just looked sad and worn out.
