Comments:
Wonderful
Primetime Drama. I watched this show whenever I was
eleven years old and I have to agree with the other
comments by saying that each episode always made you
want to tune in to find out what would happen next.
I have also noticed that there are some references
to "Savannah" in other re-runs of WB shows
during that time like "Sister, Sister" and
"Unhappily Ever After." I only got to see
the first season, but I think that the second season
sounded much better. The cable company at the time
showed the WB only through WGN-Chicago, and they took
it off right after a cliffhanger when Robyn Lively's
character (Reese, I think) blacked out on her own
wedding night and went into the wrong hotel room.
Drama today is too serious, why can't we have more
shows like this show? If you also liked this show
then you might have liked "Pacific Palisades"
as well, but they never last.
