Bad Girls I believe really is a great drama in the first 3 series's and then it lost a lot. Not, as many might say because Simone and Mandana left, but because I believe Shed lost the imput of one person called Chris Tchaikovsky. She was a former prisoner that Nikki Wade was based on who was the shows made advisor - and reading between the lines the main contributor in many other ways as well in its concept - until her unfortunate illness and death. From the moment she wasn't properly involved seems to be the time that BG's lost its gritty drama tag and became .... I would say almost sleazy. Other lesbian interest has come and gone in the series, and each time its felt like a token gesture not a genuine attempt to put some serious lesbian or gay characters in. I stuck watching the series right through until this latest (7) - even enjoyed the beginning of 6 which held some promise..... didn't last..... but despite trying........ I haven't been able to watch any episodes of 7 at all properly and have now given up about half way through. _________________ |

That would have been disasterous in my eyes. We appreciate you feel like a late comer, and while its great to have you on the Simone Board - if you don't already know we also have a dedicated Nikki and Helen MB - partly because we still love 'em, partly because we saw a number of 'new' fans coming along and not have anywhere dedicated to talk about the lovely ladies.......... The board can be found at: http://s4.invisionfree.com/Nikki_and_Helen/ Your more than welcome to come along and join in there with other fans - we also have a growing fan fiction section. |
