alexx Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I've probably said this before in the thread, but I found that around the time Sophie and her dad entered it had become a bit long winded and slightly tedious. I still enjoyed watching it, but compared to 1988 and 1990, that period - which probably only lasted three or so months - was a bit dry. It picked up towards the end of the season though Imo such as when Pippa was on her mission to help Sophie out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHulk Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 ^ Technically it was 1990, but it counts as 1989 from a production standpoint. That had to be one of the biggest seasons produced, mind you 1996 went on forever (production wise), too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaxland 89 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I liked the bunyip story. And when they had that fish funeral. All silly though. Not so keen on the Danny Price story. Especially for such a dramatic event it has never been mentioned since by Bobby or Morag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHulk Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Perhaps Morag was so deeply traumatised! (She was nearly speared) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 LOL the Bunyip storyline was entertaining, but silly at the same time. While I love both Martin and Lance, I do feel like that their storylines kept going around in circles so I can see why they left in early 1990 to be honest. I thought the ending of the Danny Price/Farnsworth storyline was strange, but I did enjoy it. My favourite storylines of 1989 was Bobby's discovery of her real parents, Dodge's reign in Summer Bay and the shark storyline involving Rory and I guess anything involving Morag.

CaptainHulk Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 IMO, Lance and Martin had evolved in some ways and some ways they were still stuck in 1st gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I think in some way you are right. I felt Lance became more intelligent later on in his first stint and Martin was more keen on making money through quick-rich schemes but it felt like we went around in circles a little too much. However, during that time it was still entertaining to watch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
