I Gave Privileged Another Chance
I surprised myself. I purposely didn’t DVR Privileged this week, cause I was fairly certain I had no desire to see any more of it. I planned to watch Fringe. But then, for some reason, I found myself watching the CW at 9:00 pm on Tuesday. I’m not even sure how I got there.
I can’t even really say I liked it better than the last two weeks, but usually once I hit that third episode of a show, I feel committed. I don’t think that’s what’s happening here. I hope not, cause I really still don’t like the show. Although, this episode was a little less annoying than the last couple. I may even watch again next week. We’ll see.
This week, Rose finds out that she has to repeat her freshman year of high school and she’s not happy cause it will make her uncool. Megan goes to school and meets the headmaster, a young man apparently filling in for his father (is that even legal?) who has been ill. Of course, he asks Megan out (again, I ask, is that ethical?) and although she turns him down the first time, she eventually calls him and goes out with him at the end. But not until some unfunny hilarity ensures.
After Megan has presented a study plan to the headmaster that she and Rose are going to follow, and which will allow Rose to stay a Sophmore, Sage convinces Rose to cut class for the afternoon so they can go buy new dresses for a party that night. Eventually, Megan has to track them down to a party on some rich kid’s yacht and, of course, the yacht takes off with her stuck on it for the duration. (Apparently, Megan has never watched a sitcom before and didn’t realize that that was bound to happen.)
In the end, however, Rose learns that if she wants to eventually get in to Duke, no one will be able to buy her way in, she will have to study. So she puts her foot down and tells Sage to go to the next party without her while she studies. Sage, cause she does love her sister, ends up staying with her and helping her study. Megan looks on approvingly.
The End.
