I don't know if there was a writers strike, a vacation or what, but once season 2 starts, the story board and dialogue gets questionable. There's only so much I can ignore from the start before i'm moved to post about it. When the snow starts towards the end, i'm baffled about why she would choose to do this to begin with, and clearly Michael "HAS" to come around and mention what the audience is thinking, but everything she's saying is as if she were reading computer generated lines, completely scripted and lifeless, that's the theme for this episode and many more to come unfortunately. It's like when Alex dies and, Isabel says "he has to use his powers to open the door"... that set off the 140th dialogue issue alarm since the season began. Whats even more unusual is that the inconsistencies in the quality of writing are all over the place. We'll get a handful of scenes with perfectly written dialogue, and another handful of trash. The next episode: S2 Ep20 "Off the Menu" is perfectly example of this, and probably the episode where anyone watching can tell something's gone wrong behind-the-scenes. If anyone knows what happened, I'm sure we would all love to know.
