Cupid's Arrow (#8.20)

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 10 May 2016]

A pretty great episode. I was hating how David was with Donna in stead of Val, but loved standing up so hard for her at the end.

And the roofie story is pretty good. Wonder how they will find out that Noah is innocent, well I guess it will depend on whether Donna knows whose pills she took. If she thinks it is Noah's he will be in more mess. But a great episode ending. Poor val, although it may bring David closer to her.

Noah's brother is Michael Trucco, I really wouldn't have recognized him, but was fun to see him in his younger role.

And Brandon and Kelly are back together. Good for them.

I noticed I don't like it when Brandon and Steve are "acting funny". They just seem annoying and overdo it.

Lots of missing episodes like this one

I watched the series on and off when Fox was a new network, and have recently been working my way through the series. I thought that the writing was pretty disjointed because people seem to appear and disappear without any transition. I wised up when the college graduation wasn't even mentioned. After watching them slog through school, the absence was glaring. My viewing choices are either Prime video or to purchase the entire season(s) on DVD.

Enter IMDB. I started comparing the episode list here to what is available on Amazon prime. Voila, lots of missing episodes. The writers of the series turned the characters into a carousel of rotating foibles. I don't know or really care enough to determine who has the licensing rights to the series. It appears that anything that is now deemed to be remotely controversial/unseemly has been censored out. You won't see the suicide in season one, the graduation, or this episode where there is possible date rape and a drink spiked.

Valerie is a passable or laughable villainess, but you won't see her being roofied.

Pity, the series is a throwback to the 90's and the angst of growing up. You won't be able to see all of the episodes though, which has me scratching my head.
