Hey Jethro, I saw the website. I noticed that you have not seen Arnold's Job. I viewed it a few months back. It's so so. He goes to work for a crust old man who is a photographer. Arnold finds himi self being a go for(gopher) rather than doing pictures and wants to quit. Maybe you have already read about this episode, but that is the synopsis. It didn't appeal to me as much.(The episode)

Thanks for the info, I actually have the episode but I haven't watched it yet. I got the rest of the DS episodes I needed a little while ago but since I know that I'll never see any more new ones ever again I've been running just one of them every couple of weeks.
I'm gonna try and complete the episode guide section soon. It's quite hard to rate the last season because some of them were so bad they were good!

First off, thanks for breathing life back into this topic. I am inclined to agree that Le Tari (bless his heart and rest his soul ) was a little raw when it came to acting. It seemed liked he was just saying the words out loud.

Kareem Abdul Jabaar seemed mono when it came to his acting. With him, I would liked to gave seen more variation. I have all the faith that if he were to continue acting that he could do a job.

Mary Anne Mobley was a bit stifled. We talked about this some years back. As I got older and looked at it, some of her work looked more manufactured than realistic. She was gorgeous and truly looked the part. I guess that there was faith that she could do the part. I think with a bit more training that she would have been able to knock it out of the ball park.

Yes its funny reading back through this topic again like a 6 year trip back in time. I was re-watching The Bicycle Man the other day for the first time in ages and it re-enforced that Le Tari really struggled with emotional scenes. He wasn't too bad when it was just basic scenes but the end scene with Dudley, he just cannot inject any emotion into it. The same with the "Where There's Smoke' episode.

I like both Maggies but yes Mary Ann played hers a little more dramatic than Dixie. The other thing is that some of the season 8 episodes ie: Sam's Kidnapping and Bulimia were very serious which was cause for extra drama.
