AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Armand a really good series. realistic, provocative, new form of confession and analysis of relationship, remarkable characters and large range of issues. a film who has not solutions. only questions about basic dilemmas of each family. a kind of mirror because it has not ambition to pimp the events or inspire ways for similar cases. so, in its case, the great virtue is the deep honesty to present in white/black manner the hopes, insecurity, joy, fear, needs and ghosts of characters in a way who reflect the realities of viewer. it is not a lesson and not a show. only an ordinary story about families, about broken relations and the dawn of new beginning. result - a bitter mixture, source of nice memories.

griz44 How could this happen to me? All my years of seeing Evan Rachel Wood as Jessie Sammler, Ira David Wood IV as Ajay Lieberman, James Lafferty (One Tree Hill) as Tad Singer, Mischa Barton (The O.C.) as Katie Singer, and Adam Brody (The O.C.) as Coop are history. But not for long! The show "Once and Again" wants to come back to the U.S. in syndication on Monday, May 9. I can't believe it will return to the U.S. in syndication, no matter what! If it is, I will be pleased about seeing Evan Rachel Wood as Jessie Sammler, Ira David Wood IV as Ajay Lieberman, James Lafferty (One Tree Hill) as Tad Singer, Mischa Barton (The O.C.) as Katie Singer, and Adam Brody (The O.C.) as Coop. Other cast members besides Evan, Ira IV, James, Mischa, and Adam include: Sela Ward as Lily Manning, Billy Campbell as Rick Sammler, Jeffrey Nordling as Jake Manning, Susanna Thompson as Karen Sammler, Shane West as Eli Sammler, Julia Whelan as Grace Manning, Meredith Deane as Zoe Manning, Marin Hinkle as Judy Brooks, Ever Carradine as Tiffany Porter, Kimberly McCollough as Jennifer, Todd Field, Jennifer Crystal-Foley, David Clennon, and Steven Weber.

kd-3 But first please let's give our due to Julia Whelan, whose poignant performances from season 1 -- and especially in 3 -- were, more than anyone else's, worth the price of admission.Some especially brilliant ones where the viewers' expectations are up-ended: 1. The purloined lip gloss! What better metonymy, I ask? 2. Best of all: the several episodes in which Lily thinks Grace might be a lesbian because of her interest in the gay/lesbian student support group, though she goes because of her huge crush on her way-too-old (male) writing instructor, the faculty mentor of the group. All the while her step daughter Jessie is in the throws of a crush on a beloved (female) friend, without anyone's notice.

petelush I panned Thirtysomething on this site, so I'm duty bound to give praise where due...the same people made Once and Again. I saw an episode or two on TV and remembered it fondly enough to get the DVD, which I proceeded to devour in about 4 nights. (I now know why DVD TV shows are so popular: you don't have to wait a week to see each episode.)I thought the situations and dialogue were completely realistic. My wife, a divorce attorney, saw the show years ago and remembers it as completely unrealistic. But isn't that the master craft of entertaining TV and movies -- making the unrealistic appear realistic? I'll bet there is some good writing on this point...please send me a message if you know of any.
