Also, this adopting thing, the whole of it moving forward from now...this was what I meant when I said at the beginning of the season that they wrote the characters in a way that makes them seem much older. Maybe Brooke would want a kid, maybe even at 22 considering her "accelerated" life but the way they write these storylines for her just doesn't make a lot of sense.

2023-04-12 11:10:02 +0000 UTCI get the purpose of this episode but it feels way too slow. Too much talking. Much needed but maybe they could have condensed that to 20mins somehow and have a bit of plot development in the other half? Didn't enjoy it as much but, again, I get how it's necessary to kind of understand where each character is at

2023-04-07 22:36:15 +0000 UTCthis episode was really slow...especially compared to the last episode. but i think the purpose was to get into the mindset and psyches of our characters. brooke wanting to adopt a child seems really random and out of the blue until this episode where the social worker's line of questioning allows brooke (and the viewer) to get into her head and understand where this desire to be a mother came from. nathan and haley's therapist did a good job of explaining why nathan was willing to entertain the nanny's flirting in the first place. i also like how she encouraged them to go back to what they love as a way to grow in their relationship. i agree i could've done without the peyton/record store owner and lucas/andy scenes though. but the brooke and nathan/haley scenes gave us some good development for these characters.

2023-04-07 18:30:39 +0000 UTCYes that meeting was just the last step in deciding her eligability not her getting a child, that takes a long time. I think the biggest hurdle wasn't her age but her being single and having a very busy work life.

2023-04-07 15:08:35 +0000 UTCYes agreed. Not to mention all the other shit he pulled that was even worse. But I guess Steven just didn't know.

2023-04-07 13:24:59 +0000 UTCYou're right that it can take a really long time to actually adopt a child. I believe when she meant by approved by the end of the meeting was just her eligibility of whether they'll put her on a list to get one or not and not actually getting the child. I also agree that they feel older than 22. More like 26-28 or so.

2023-04-07 11:18:06 +0000 UTCCreepy screencap choice. -shudders- In case Steven is unaware, that is Mark Schwahn, the show's creator, who sexually harassed Hilarie (Peyton), Danneel (Rachel), and many of the other actors throughout the series. He is the reason Peyton and Lucas are what they are; when Hilarie refused his advances, Mark would write her horribly. Chad and he would frequently butt heads (because Chad wanted to protect Hilarie), and this, combined with the fact that he would base Lucas on himself at times, caused Lucas to become quite terrible.
