TV Hot Spot: The Class

The Class 1x12: The Class Visits A Bad Neighbourhood

Review by: Sal

Hey everyone, hope all of you are doing alright. The site finally looks like it is getting more controlled, and ever since the new changes (issued on the 19th of December) the site has actually seen some massive amounts of readers which is great for us. Ok so besides that, I guess I can press on with the review. The 12th episode of "The Class" managed to bring in around 7.8 Million Viewers, this isn't as good as previous episodes but again due to the hiatus most series are experiencing a bit of a downfall. Hopefully next week the series will pick up with the others.

Ok now for this particular episode. The main overview will be listed below:

As Ethan's relationship with Palmer progresses, he decides to send her flowers to show how much he cares for her, but when Palmer doesn't seem to be happy about it, Kat decides to tell her that she sent her the flowers, to help Ethan out. However, this only prompts Palmer to confess that she always had a crush on Kat. In the meantime, Nicole, Duncan and Lina decide to visit Richie's "bad" neighbourhood to help him get his stuff from the apartment, and they end up running into Fern, and a gun.

So as you can see Ethan was so happy he was in a relationship again that he sent his 'new' girlfriend Palmer a huge bouqet of flowers. She of course freaks out and finds it a bit to soon and Ethan quickly points the finger to Kat. Kat being the good friend that she is accepts the fact that the flowers came from her just to save Ethan out of the akward situation. This however, backfires. Palmer confesses to Kat at a dinner party that she always had a crush on her, and Kat doesn't like it at all. Ethan on the other hand loves the idea but Kat quickly pushes it aside. I like how the writers ended the episode with Kat suggesting they should have a threesome with Kyle, her and Ethan and NOT Palmer. Ethan was so funny when he heard that (lol).

Meanwhile on the other side of the city, in a very bad neighbourhood is where Richie and the rest of the gang go. Duncan tells Richie that he has to get his clothes from his apartment and Richie builds up the courage to go. At first there is no sight of Fern, and then finally she returns. Richie tells her that he came for his clothes and that they both should 'move on'. This gives Fern the hint that Richie has already moved on and the rest of the gang end up between Richie and Fern and a gun! I never knew someone held at gunpoint would be so funny until I watched this episode. The writers wrote it really well and Richie was excellent in this episode.

In this episode I must say that Kat was my favourite. She had the funniest lines and her character is so negative that its hilarious and had to be picked as favourite class-member for this episode. The writers tied a few knots along the way and made us see another normal day in the lives of these classmates. I cant wait for the next episode because this episode wasn't the funniest out of all the previous episodes but still kept me wanting to see more. So until the next episode!
