Right, so more dancing. How fun, lol.
Well, whatever becomes of the relationship, I just hope Danny doesn't resort to cheating. For me, it'd be a condemnation of the character and not something I could swallow and support. If he finds greener pastures elsewhere – great – but I don’t have the slightest inclination to watch him sneak around behind Lindsay’s back.
But holy cow, Louie lives! I found it kind of odd that Carmine went on to say they (the writers) are trying to find the appropriate time and place to bring him back. I think that’d be kind of hard if they actually want Louie to make an appearance on the show. Wouldn’t he, after all, still be considered an accessory to murder and be doing some time in prison (or awaiting trial)? I was just waiting for a line or two to crop up in some of the more appropriate episodes this past season.
Though it’s nice to hear Louie is alive and not hanging around in coma limbo. :lol:
Over all it sounds like the writers are hoping for some big stories this year and hopefully they’ll be just as intense and exciting as others have been in the past.

I was rolling my eyes a bit at the idea that the only way to mention Louie is to have him physically in the episode. So they went a whole season barely mentioning his existance while Danny flew across the country and back. How did that work out for you, writers?
I wouldn't want to see Danny cheat, but I can't deny being hopeful about the idea that Lindsay isn't all Danny thought she'd be--that whole situation was unsatisfactory to me in so many ways.

The interview with Mr. G has restored my faith that S4 will be worth watching. That is if TPTB don't f*ck it all to hell. It makes me happy to see that Mr. G wants to see some of Danny's fire back; even though he knows the character needs to mature and grow. I also enjoyed reading that he understands he's part of an ensemble cast and that Danny's development won't always be in the forefront and that bucking what TPTB want for the show at this point won't do anything except f*ck up his gig. Not that I think he didn't understand. It's just easy as a fan to get so into a character and their storyline that some perspective may be lost and feelings of frustration or disappointment projected from a fan onto the actor. I don’t know if that makes sense or if it makes me sound like a psycho, but either way I’m glad for the perspective provided.
I have to say I actually squeed a bit-not something I do often-when I read this part of the interview:
I've seen some D/L fans who took what happened in the finale as some kind of validation that the characters are soul mates who are destined for eternal true love. The only thing validated was that they were attracted to each other, got drunk and f*cked on Danny's pool table. In light of that, I don't see how Danny hooking up with someone else can be thought of as "cheating" on Lindsay. Of course, TPTB could start S4 by making D/L an exclusive couple, but that really wouldn't make any sense to me considering the circumstances of their hookup. It does make sense to me that now that Danny has "caught" Lindsay, he'd come to the realization that he doesn't really want her. Especially if TPTB continue S4 with Lindsay's self-absorbed, angst fest over Danny being hurt after taking her shift. And if Lindsay doesn’t get developed as a stand alone character that can’t exist without being tied to Danny. I could easily see Danny realizing it isn't worth the continued effort to be with someone like that.
And Louie is alive! I understand not wanting to bring him up as an afterthought or an aside, but there were a few S3 episodes where mentioning Louie would have fit seamlessly into the plot of the show. But I’ll stay hopeful they’ll get him in at least one episode in S4. I'll also stay hopeful that we'll get some Adam and Hawkes development.

PA, have I mentioned that I love you? :lol: You give me so much to talk about. *readies fingers for typing*
I found this comment interesting: "I don't know if we've got to go so far as love--he does the things young men do."
He was talking about a love triangle, but I can't help but wonder if there was more to it--these interviews are just part of the whole conversation. It makes me wonder if maybe he doesn't see the relationship between Danny and Lindsay as having gone to the 'love' level yet either. It only just went to the 'relationship' level in the finale, after all. And call me skeptical, but I don't think sex=love.
*readies fingers for typing*Exactly! They didn't want him to be an afterthought--so it seems like they forgot him altogether! (Aside from those two name mentions with relation to Shane Casey, of course.) An off-hand mention of him (that actually gave us information about his condition) would have been better than the big fat nothing we got.
You make a very good point. My problem is that yeah, everyone can't get development at the same time--but they should all get the same amount over time. In the course of a season, I'm sure there would be arcs and episodes where certain characters got more time devoted to them--but who those people are should change more, and it should be memorable stuff for everyone.
Yep, yep--but this should be a process, not something that just *poof!* happened. The way he used to clash with Mac was interesting, and even if their characters are moving past that, it's something that should be used as development for both of them--getting laid isn't the only way to build interest, writers! Relationships are powerful stuff, yes, but the non-romantic relationships are just as powerful as the romantic ones, and far less divisive, if you ask me.
Word.

Very true. Also, it's quite possible that, even if they're dating, they break up. It happens in real life, after all, so it might just be possible on tv as well. [/sarcasm]

I agree with you - TPTB missed the boat on all of this, I just found it interesting and enjoyable to read Mr. G's somewhat difffering perspective.
I got the same vibe from Mr. G as you did. Neither character has come close to saying the "l" word so even if there's another chick in the picture there wouldn't be a "love triangle." Sex doesn't = love, that's very true. I'll go a step farther and say that sex doesn't = relationship either.
In light of that, I don't see how Danny hooking up with someone else can be thought of as "cheating" on Lindsay.

People break up in real life and on tv? You're f*cking with my naive little brain now.
I can't justify them breaking up when they aren't in a relationship, but TPTB wouldn't exactly shock me if they decided to start S4 with Danny and Lindsay as an actual couple. 
Good points about cheating, guys. If they're not dating, it's not cheating. I have to say, because there was so much build up I do suspect there's a relationship there, unless one of them pushes the other away, which very well may happen. Carmine's choice of words, "she's not all Danny thought she would be" suggests that something about her makes him push her away. Maybe she's still treating him poorly and he finally decides he's had enough of it.
The Louie thing is still an idea at this point--it could be three damn seasons before we see the guy! I hope it happens before then.
