I try to pretend that 90210 doesn't exist because I object to Lori
Loughlin having to live down another crap show after Full House.

I find Without a Trace to be watchable, but seriously, Jack needs to
get addicted to something -- speed, meth, caffiene, imagining Sam &
Yelena doing each other -- anything that could potentially give him a
pulse.

LORELAI: I am so done with plans. I am never, ever making one again.
It never works. I spend the day obsessing over why it didn't work
and what I could've done differently. I'm analyzing all my shortcomings
when all I really need to be doing is vowing to never, ever make a plan
ever again, which I'm doing now, having once again been the innocent
victim of my own stupid plans. God, I need some coffee.
Full House was the high point of her career (same for Saget and that other
guy who made Scooby Doo voices). Everything else has been MUCH worse drivel.

He is addicted ... to work.

Summerland and the movie The New Kids were much *much* better than
either Full House or 90210.2.0. But then again, to get any worse than
Full House or 90210.2.0 you pretty much have to go to the worst
reality shows -- yeah, there are differing degrees of crapitude even
amongst reality crap, BID -- Rock of Love, The Hills, anything
starring Scott Baio, Christopher Night, Flavor Flav or anyone who's
ever come into physical contact with Flavor Flav.
Summerland and The New Kids -- much better work than Full House or
90210.2.blow (job).

That would imply that he's making an effort to do anything. That
wasn't happening for at least a couple of years *before* his recent
trip to the hospital.
Full dissent - "Summerland" makes The All New! NEW!! "90210" look like
Shakespeare in comparison.
"Summerland" was actually one of the worst shows to ever grace The
WB.

The problem with you and your total misunderstanding of Summerland is
that Taylor Cole is over the age of consent.
Although Zac Efron's "acting" in Summerland was soooooo bad he never
should have been able to land another role. Ever. Sure, he's able to
act *now,* but I wonder who his agent had blackmail pictures of to
ever get him another audition.

Didn't Summerland have both Panabakers? I woulda thought Ian would've been
all over that. :-)
Nice try. Now why don't you actually go about trying to convince the
rest of us that "Summerland" wasn't an unadulterated piece of crap.
Ian (I'll even spot you 24 hours to come up with an answer. Not that
it'll help.)
Read: you. I know that I don't have to convince too many other people
that it was at least watchable. Pretty much the entire cast except
for Efron and the kid that played the younger brother, despite
differing weaknesses in their acting, were still acting rings around
everyone in 90210.2.blowjob except Lori Loughlin and Jessica Walter.
WQ, of course, hates everything, though.

For you, the Panabaker sisters, you perv.
I'm not sure what the name was of something that played here recently in a
weekend afternoon time slot with Lori in it. It might have been
"Summerland". Whatever it was though, it WAS hopelessly unwatchable.
If you were watching the cable channel The N, and it was a show set in
a So.Cal. beach town, what you saw was "Summerland".
And your description is shockingly accurate for that show!
I'm in New Zealand, so it wasn't a cable channel, but is was a beach show
and very likely was "Summerland".

Four adults raising three kids -- the niece and nephews of Lori
Loughlin's character -- in a So. Cal. beach house. Lori Loughlin and
Merrin Dungey (Francine on Alias) are fashion designers, one of the
two guys is a surfer who now plays Anna Paquin's brother on True
Blood.
Shawn Christian is on "True Blood"?!
<checking IMDb...>
Oh, the *other* surfer...
Yep, that's definitely the same show - unwatchable drivel. Although not that
good itself, Full House is infinitely better and the pinacle of Lori's
career so far.
I really really want to watch a Lori show, but it's pretty much
impossible.

Crap Trek 2009: "No Shat, No Show"
Ka-THUNK! (Jaw drops) So I take it you must have had a crush on John
Stamos?
Yikes, it's been a while.
Basically, she played kind of a generic "popular girl" on "90210". I
don't even remember what her role was on WAT - I think it was a like a
bank teller or something...
I had forgotten about the IMDB so here is what they said:
90210 (TV series)
The Blonde Blended
– Love Me or Leave Me (2009) … The Blonde Blended
– That Which We Destroy (2008) … The Blonde Blended
2008 Without a Trace (TV series)
Erin MacNeil / Erin Mcmillan
– Live to Regret (2008) … Erin MacNeil
– Closure (2008) … Erin Mcmillan
Don't think I havce seen either episodes
