Loveday Writing

This episode was a bit of a hit-and-miss for me. I did personally like the conflict between Lewis and Belle. Belle has managed to cause conflict with almost everyone else in the House Husbands world, it was inevitable that the conflict–both past and present–between her and Lewis would come out. I like the writers’ choice to “save the best for

This episode was one of the most interesting I came across–interesting in terms of the writers’ choices. Zac being bullied by a parent was a good B-story. The subtlety of the discovery that it was a parent and not a classmate was well done. Zac’s behaviour during the episode was realistic and heartbreaking and displays Riley Webb’s talent. I felt

This episode starts in media res yet again, although seeing Lewis in a giraffe onesie at the beach is interesting way to start. We then go back 24 hours earlier. This episode revolved around three things–the student council elections, Ned meeting the family and the discovery of Tom leaving Kane. The revelation of Tom leaving Kane wasn’t that much of

I thought the season 2 premiere was completely different, this one has done a complete 180. This season is set a year after the events of season’s 2 finale and many changes have taken place. Justin and Lewis have a handyman business together, Mark is launching his own marketing company, Mark and Abi have a six-month old baby girl, the

This season finale was good but I wouldn’t say it was as good as the first. I think it was partly because it didn’t feel like a finale, sure it did its job of wrapping up the season’s plots and providing opportunities for the third, however it didn’t stand out like a finale should. I felt it was a bit

This episode was filled with tension and in a good way. It was only a matter of time before Dimity’s husband, Simon, found out about her affair with Justin. Of course it would only happen when it was over, it’s better writing. The tension between Simon and the main men was played out very well and of course it was

I’m glad to see the writing of the previous episode didn’t affect the writing of this one. I liked the exploration of the effect of high school bullying well into adulthood in Kane and Derek. It’s shitty that Derek became a success, however if he didn’t, there would be no story. It was a great choice of the writers to

This episode was the worst episode ever. The camping trip was lame and the majority of the characters were just plain unlikeable. Mark and Justin in particular were portrayed in an unfavourable light as a corporate try-hard and a man in denial of his grief, respectively. Justin & Kane getting high off mushrooms was cringeworthy, although Kane’s advice was solid.

I think this episode was one of the best in the season. The reason for this was due to the teamwork between the guys, between the girls, the humour and the exploration of Dimity, who up until this episode, was quite an irritating character. She was obviously going to serve a purpose of some sort and now that purpose has

Just passed the halfway point and this episode is the first in the second season to start in media res. I’m happy about this because I felt they were too dependent on it as a writing technique throughout the first season. The episode started with Gemma waking up in bed with Damo and then going back three days earlier. Having
