What brought my score down to 6 is the fourth season, and onwards it will be the same, I suppose. I'm currently watching season 5 and the magic of the first three seasons is just not there anymore. First off, let me just say that the whole thing isn't my kind of thing at all, but this particular show came to my attention via photos in magazines, and those eyes, those eyes, those eyes...
It will come as no surprise to all of you out there that Jennifer Love Hewitt is one of my all-time favorites, and I've got a considerable lot of her movies and series. She is at her very best in PARTY OF FIVE season 2. Gee, Bailey doesn't deserve a girl like Sarah!
The story is totally warm-hearted. Of course, the original idea is centered in the first season. It stretched well into the second season, even the third. It began getting too morose for me with the story arc involving cancer, and at that time JLH was obviously off shooting one of her hit movies, as Sarah only had token appearances.
I do apologize for adding my bit that brings the overall view down a bit, I do realize this is a show much loved by its followers, and I have great respect for that. But I maintain that it all goes downhill from around midway.
By the way, my least favorite character is Julia Salinger. I well remember that Neve Campbell was a super-hot star at the onset, but she really, really fizzles out very, very soon. Whiny and a total drag. A total disappointment.
Lacey Chabert at her best during Claudia's violin-playing days. And I'm not at all a violin-lover. But that kid, wow, she was to get all fuzzy about. Now that she's growing up, the very likable Claudia is just not there anymore.
Sarah is a dream girl. Wow, she is everything nice. Lookswise, character-wise. She is just 'to put your arms around and hold her tight' and oh yeah, I'll pretty soon have to post one of my rantings against DVD-unavailability again for TIME OF YOUR LIFE, because however much PARTY OF FIVE sags on my personal rating, I'd want to continue with the sequel, and it will most likely never be released on DVD.
