Town & Country Episode 29

Shauna gets ready for her first date with Max.
Tommy starts his first day at Radcliffe High School.
And Much More!

I'm enjoying the focus on the teen crew! Tommy doesn't seem like too much of a prep-school, rich-kid stereotype, which is great. And it was funny how he was impressed with Tanner for coming up with that cover story so quickly. I have a bad feeling about Lynn and Elijah going off-campus -- there was something slightly ominous about them getting into that car!

Seems smart of Martha to ask Shauna to be the baby's godmother. They have a close bond, and Shauna has proven herself to be assertive and reasonable.

One thing I always enjoy is how much detail you pour into scenes, from the clothing to little touches like mentioning Brynn Barker's beginnings as an English teacher. It really does help flesh out the world.

Originally I had wanted Tommy to be that stereotype, however he proves to be different to that degree. Although he is used to gourmet chefs making his three course meals at his boarding school and going to school with scions of millionaires and political figures. He and Tanner our building towards a mutual understanding. And you'll just have to wait and see if Lynn and Elijah's journey into skipping school was successful or not.

I love their friendship it's one of my favorite non-romantic relationships on T&C. And you describe Shauna perfectly in that sense.

As a reader I try to visualize things such as character's wardrobes, their attitudes, and as a writer I like to explore their backgrounds even periphery ones like Brynn Barker. Don't you love saying her whole name everytime she comes onto the scene.

Thanks for your comments and readership Michael!

The teen scene reminds me of early Beverly Hills 90210; there’s so much potential with these group of kids. Like Michael, it’s nice that Tommy is fitting in. I assumed he was going to think he was better than this town/school. I also enjoy Lynn’s continued rebellion.

Sweet scene with Martha and Shauna. These smaller scenes really end up making the heart of the series. I did chuckle when Max told Daniel he’s too old for a crush!

Nice read, Bre!

Writing the teens is something I'm passionate about because the current state of all four soaps the younger generations our lacking so I know that I wanted to tell stories with the twins, Tommy, Elijah, and Jordan. Tommy is a laidback individual however I did express how he already learned many of the lessons in the class he is now in last year at his boarding school. Lynn's act of rebellion is an extension of her family's issues and can't wait to see how fair it goes.

Like I written to Michael, these two our one of my favorite friendships to write because there is so much history between these two. So having Shauna accept being the baby's godmother. And I did love including that line about Max telling Daniel that it isn't a crush and he is too old for the after school special vocabulary too.

Nice read, Bre!

Thanks for your post Dallas!!!
