The Only Way Is Essex

Why is Gemma permanently with the twins? She's at her best when she's mixing with the girls taking the lead role of the mental and neurotic one.

Also what the hell was with Billie, Cara and the mutant dogs? It was dull, uninteresting and so unnecessary.

Lauren Pope's new teeth and fillers make her look a bit like a deformed Kylie.
 
Awful. Really disappointed.

The only good thing was the last 5 minutes when Arg rocked up at Lydia's dinner and caused all that drama.

Not rating the new opening titles either.. sort've destroyed the whole idea of us following the lives of "such and such".
 
When Gemma is one of the best cards remaining in your rapidly weakening pack - don't chose to play her in the 'oh so crucial' role of 'witnessing a person arrive at a public place'.

The twins. No. It's bizarre that almost everyone was in agreement that the new additions for the last series; the twin and Billi & Cara didn't work - so why are they still there?
 
Also I agree that Georgina isn't half as attractive or alluring as she was made out to be.

I'm really optimistic that this season won't be a complete shite fest. However I do feel that due to the departure of almost all the original and more interesting characters I think the show is going to die on its arse.

Seriously, who gives two hoots about Jessica riding a bike in the park with Nanny Pat and her sour faced mother?
 
Don't get me started on Carol and her awkward chat with her own daughter and mother. It's like she's never had a conversation with them before. And her face...it looks could be weapons of mass destruction.

As for Jess. She always seems so delighted to be getting any screen time that even when she's talking about sad things she smiles from ear to ear.

Lydia is ONLY TWENTY-ONE!!!!
 
^^ Hilarious! So true!

Well that episode was pish. Just watched it. Have the producers lost the plot by keeping Billi and Cara? What are they thinking? They are nothing! THey are not likeable, they have no storylines - wtf?? And someone said earlier - why the hell is Gemma always with the twins? She IS so much better as lead psycho girl! Head Girl! Why are we not following Gemma's lovelife? Or life in general? I'd watch just that!

And Frankie at the beginning going, "I don't watch the news, I don't get it" - is that supposed to be funny, or cute or something? Had enough of the whole 'let's make out we are ignorant as fuck cos it will make us look like Barbie dolls, and they're hot, right?"

And Lauren Goodger when Arg walked in the restaurant!! SIT DOWN LAUREN! It had nothing to do with her - she just saw STORYLINE walk in the room and jumped all over it!

I said at the xmas special that it had jumped the shark, and am very disappointed with last night's episode. I used to LOVE it!

And yeah - let's film The Wrights cycling around a park?? wtf??
 
He / Him
I don't really care for the show now, the cast is just not entertaining anymore. I mean I only like Gemma and I'm quite on and off with Lydia. They need some people with personality!

I'm quite glad she did it, it caused something interesting to happen in the episode at least.
 
I'm baffled they've kept so many of the blandies when theres been NO positive response towards them from last season at all.
This is obviously the season where it's jumping shark and no-one will care anymore.
 
It's really saying something when Lauren G is the highlight of an episode. As long as they keep plying her with white wine she'll always have some form of entertainment about her.
 
I always think that Lauren and Lucy are gonna have it out with each other but they give me nothing!

I don't know why Joey is popular to me he comes across as being very full of himself and too cocky and acts too stupid.

Lauren was so disrespectful to Queen Debbie!

Their split is sooo fake aswell, anything for the 'drama'.

So much truth. The whole show is a shitfest now. No doubt Arg and Lydia will be back on in a few weeks. Her and Arg both speak like they have some severe nasal congestion.

It saddens me that personality vacuums like the twins and Billi and Cara will probably make quite a bit of money from this show. Life injustice.
 
What have they done to my favourite show?

The titles.
Billi and Cara.
"Diags".

All just awful. And where was Queen Gemma? She is the shining light of the show and she had what, 10 seconds on screen? Why wasn't she at Lydia's birthday when Billi and Cara were? When Lauren G's drunken behaviour is the best part of the episode, something is seriously up.

Gemma does seriously need more screen time in the next episode or imma be very unhappy.

This is true, I was literally cringing into my seat though - soooo desperate! And innappropriate?!

Joey is popular because he used to be adorable and funny - he was impossible not to love! Now he is just fake and ridiculous, and not funny.

Think I might buy the series one and two box set and just watch those, and remember the brilliance!
 
The opening episode really was awful. I can see this being the last series as ratings nosedive. I never liked Mark or Kirk but they have left a massive gap, the two Laurens really are redundant without them.

Why on earth would they axe Maria and Harry and keep the pointless twins and the even more pointless Billi and Cara and their mutant dogs?! And Joey's best friend is already annoying me. I was expecting a lot more from Georgina going from the pre-series hype.

It's a shame but I think TOWIE is on the way out.
