I love Gary. He's so beautiful. I was really sad when he was into drugs and started looking horrible. He's looking much better these days! Hooray! I'm glad he got cleaned up. He is my favorite one so far.
America really acts well. Very refreshing! Do you see that her character never raises her voice, but her facial gestures communicate everything? The way she uses her eyes, the way her mouth moves. Well, one day when my baby is older, I would love to do community theatre. I admire character actresses. In other words, they can really act. I am watching #5 again and I am closing my eyes. Their acting, her acting still works. It is so real.
"Strangers can become close.. We can move from old love to new love.... The heart is very resilient..." I love those lines. awesome! They were really into the moment and so was I.
Strangely the more I watch this series, the more I am understanding myself. I think I am like Christine. I THINK I get where she is coming from, she is hiding from something herself, from herself. I am liking this series more than the others so far, though I have liked them all. Even if I am uncomfortable with the self-awareness it is bringing me. Brava Wigs.
Ooo Thx. Never read where anyone spoke-up for us this way. Most people like to see us portrayed in the manners we're most portrayed. Even going to so far as to internalize it, and from there, treating perfectly respectful normal and innocent black men w/ contempt & suspicion in everyday life situations. Thanks again.
Zero population growth was the first thing that popped into my head when he didn't seem overly enthused about bringing more humans onto the already severely overpopulated planet. Some folks do try to be more responsible than to just spot an attractive person and want to make babies. Only the writer knows why he said that, but like you pointed out, people who work with children frequently realize there are far too many unwanted ones that need a home rather than making more because someone's sexy.
Yep, I am taken aback by the harsh way she is judged. It does seem that people are not very charitable with her. Dating is a lot of stress. Either you really like someone, and then you get all nervous and neurotic, trying to be the person they want, or you absolutely loathe them and they are all over you. It is hard to find the happy middle ground, where there is mutual attraction. In the meantime, dating is a jungle. Very stressful in this day and age.
This gets more and more interesting!!! Now it's like she is completely different person which makes me wonder how she is going to handle the next date.
Watching this is like an intense make-out session that ends abruptly before you ever know what could have been!!! Ughh makes me want more! I guess that's the point...leave us craving more! And it is workinggg!! :-D
The most addictive drug on earth is telling the truth, and looking in the eyes of your listener, and knowing that they know that you know that you're right
When he said adopt, but didn't really get to fully answer about "not his own," I got the feeling maybe he can't have his own or something. There was just this look in his eyes like it was a lot to explain.
Until Friday, can't wait! For those who are 'getting tired of Christine', you know you don't have to watch right? For those who are enjoying this show, like me, :)
He feels like he's laying the story on thick. His mother disclosed to him that she had a fling with a Pastry chef? I'm loving this series though, such a cool concept.
Sorry about your flu. I've been nursing a sciatic nerve and tendontitis problem which greatly limits my getting around. So, on those days when I don't walk so well, I lay in bed with an ice pack and talk on here. LOL It's fun. I have always loved being in book discussions and movie critiques, this is a close cousin. LOL
Thanks for seeing that and for supporting me, Vik. I wrote a response to the other comment you made and posted it, then took it down to edit it, and it disappeared. But I think it came in in your email box, I hope.
Also, as for her hiding a secret... Well she did mention something about "old love and going to a new love" and she was insistant about whether he "wants to have his own kids".... Could these phrases be part of the mystery? Isn't is better that we are developing our own imagination? I am glad there is no drama or sex because we are always getting that. We only have words and facial expressions... This makes it even more powerful. We can create our own thoughts/conjectures.
i think that is the goal of the short films, life a interesting journey whether all the pieces fall in to place or dont fit at all. we are both affected
Totally agree with you. Blue and Jenna left me like that. Jenna got too cliche and predictable, but had some interesting elements. Well, I will see what happens in number 7. Would love to have your writing posted or on a blog. Thanks.
OMG WARRICK!!!! I watch him everyday lately old csi, and I always wonder what other acting jobs he took. Gary Dourdan, such a beautiful man. He actually looks a lot like my brother.
Yup. I think the many negative comments are because of this also, but most folks are not insightful enough to recognise WHY it's making them so uncomfortable.
I don't know if she's nervous or what. Experimenting, evaluating, testing, writing, mentally unstable, preparing for a job or searching for true love, she is interesting and realistic in her dialog, nerves, tics,self-talk, all of it. I love her even though she sometimes seems a bit of a doofus. Okay, a total doofus sometimes. As most of us are. I think many are bullying her character just because they can
He never said or even hinted he couldn't have children, he said he'd possibly adopt but didn't think he'd want any of his own. That's a very legitimate response, many people do not wish to have children. It's not even unusual. Why do so many people not listen when the characters speak? That's sort of why they have sound and closed captioning if necessary.
Yeah, exactly! It make sense to lie about that and it doesn't seem like she's lying about anything else. She doesn't really feel comfortable when all the attention is focused on her, but that's pretty normal. She's just a little shy I think. I am getting the feeling there's something else going on though--we'll find out soon enough!
This is only a guess, but her conversations with herself I think are like Dexter's voice overs on Showtimes Dexter. I don't think anyone else is supposed to be able to hear her, it's done out loud for our benefit, so we can have a glimpse into her mind's workings.
True enough! LOL!! I'll make you a deal, if we don't get a definite answer we can hang around the message boards and make one up! Somehow, though.... the Dakota series restored my faith in Wigs being able to come up with some kind of closure...
That was an interesting interaction...but to all those who are being unduly critical of Christine...think how you would be in that setting, you might very well be critical too--you only have a few moments to figure out your stance on many different people and decide if you want to pursue anything further w/ them, I'd be critical and speculative too!
I think they did, After the bell rung and they were having the 'very nice meeting you' conversation there were some shuffling sounds below the camera , probably on the table. Just that the camera was focusing on their faces instead of their hands.
I wouldn't change my travel experiences ever. However, I wouldn't recommend it. It was what it was. I no longer have that life and I am fortunate nothing ever happened to me. Made me write some interesting poetry. Travelled From CA to the Yukon (Alaska). Learned a lot. Inspired me to start visiting other continents......Some people said I was foolish and I agree whole heartedly. Yet, I was a teenager who was longing to experience another life, too see the world. Well, that was a life time ago..
Her character is a trip. I know some people dont like her but arent we all like her at times or on a particular instant of our lives?
i fell in love with this guy lol
I love Gary. He's so beautiful. I was really sad when he was into drugs and started looking horrible. He's looking much better these days! Hooray! I'm glad he got cleaned up. He is my favorite one so far.

Her loss! *waits for him at the next table* :P

I think this might be one of my favorite series. I just wish the episodes were longer!! I hate waiting!!!
I love his eyes
i am so beyond addicted to this!! favourite wigs show hand down. so real.
I could literally watch these all day.
Ooo Thx. Never read where anyone spoke-up for us this way. Most people like to see us portrayed in the manners we're most portrayed. Even going to so far as to internalize it, and from there, treating perfectly respectful normal and innocent black men w/ contempt & suspicion in everyday life situations. Thanks again.
Yep, it was a real shortie. Only three episodes. Loved it.

30 seconds in and all I have to say is, "Yummmm!" :D

I love the Christine series so much!!! It's so entertaining. :)
she said "Ok Christine" the way one talks to one self to stay focussed.
despite what everyone says, I love this series. She has something that shes hiding, and I can't wait to figure it out!
His eyes are amazing!
This gets more and more interesting!!! Now it's like she is completely different person which makes me wonder how she is going to handle the next date.
Thank you very much for the encouragement.
wow that little stare he gave her at the end...nice
Jesus i barely remember what she said.. got lost in his eyes... he is BEAUTIFUL GEESH I have been a Gary Dourdan fan forever!
I was thinking that too. I bet that's it! I wonder if we'll see him again in another episode.
Hell's bells, post it. That's all this amounts to, people trying to figure out what's going on and what will happen in the future episodes. Post it!
He's mysterious.. there must be a catch! :O
Gary Douran is dreamy! I really liked his character here.
He is my favorite one so far!
I want to see more of these two! Especially him!!!
Watching this is like an intense make-out session that ends abruptly before you ever know what could have been!!! Ughh makes me want more! I guess that's the point...leave us craving more! And it is workinggg!! :-D
He is the best one SO FAR...
In this day and time, any man who works an honest job.
The word sexy can't even describe him, he's surpassed it lol
i feel like they've had the most connection so far.
The most addictive drug on earth is telling the truth, and looking in the eyes of your listener, and knowing that they know that you know that you're right
When he said adopt, but didn't really get to fully answer about "not his own," I got the feeling maybe he can't have his own or something. There was just this look in his eyes like it was a lot to explain.
this might have been her most successful talk so far.
Until Friday, can't wait!
For those who are 'getting tired of Christine', you know you don't have to watch right?
For those who are enjoying this show, like me, :)
He feels like he's laying the story on thick. His mother disclosed to him that she had a fling with a Pastry chef? I'm loving this series though, such a cool concept.
The look he gives her at 6:36 - wow.
I love Warrick from CSI! His eyes are amazing!
he was amazing. btw WIGS views are really smart, i love reading all your comments after watching a video to get inside everyones head.
Sorry about your flu. I've been nursing a sciatic nerve and tendontitis problem which greatly limits my getting around. So, on those days when I don't walk so well, I lay in bed with an ice pack and talk on here. LOL It's fun. I have always loved being in book discussions and movie critiques, this is a close cousin. LOL
They were so good together!

We only have words and facial expressions... This makes it even more powerful. We can create our own thoughts/conjectures.
I was thinking the same thing! There is just something going on with her and I'm dying to find out! :)
This series seems the most real. :) I like it about as much as I liked Blue.
Hey Vik, where ya been? Did you see episode 8? Was waiting to hear your take on it..... ???
The first guy I wanted to know more about. Those eyes; wow. They say they are windows to ones soul. I wonder what his soul is all about.
My favorite man ever since a different world !!!! 💜 love his look.
I love this series
i think that is the goal of the short films, life a interesting journey whether all the pieces fall in to place or dont fit at all. we are both affected
Totally agree with you. Blue and Jenna left me like that. Jenna got too cliche and predictable, but had some interesting elements. Well, I will see what happens in number 7. Would love to have your writing posted or on a blog. Thanks.
There may be a connection. Good episode.
No occupation really, just a honest and sincere person is better, no matter what occupation
OMG WARRICK!!!! I watch him everyday lately old csi, and I always wonder what other acting jobs he took. Gary Dourdan, such a beautiful man. He actually looks a lot like my brother.
Yes he did, watch again.
You can stop your search right now Christine! lol.
they had a spark.
His eye where amazing!
hes a good man. and at the he looked back like he was interested! :]
this guy was the best
What scares me about WIGS' series is we may never get a definite answer!!! LOL.
i was wondering that too. sure looks like him!
oooh the eye contact
6 minutes later: He's perfect!
Yup. I think the many negative comments are because of this also, but most folks are not insightful enough to recognise WHY it's making them so uncomfortable.
OMG his eyes *---*
haha i was watching and wishing for that bell to ring!
This guys my favourite so far :)
didn't see it that way but now that you point it out, i think you are on to something
Does anyone else spend the whole episode waiting to post a comment at the end!?
my favorite so far!
they sooo connected
OMG I would die if it were me sitting opposite him...wow! *swoon*
When she did the gunshot motion, did anyone one else think that was a reference back to how he (Warren) died off of CSI Las Vegas...
I don't know if she's nervous or what. Experimenting, evaluating, testing, writing, mentally unstable, preparing for a job or searching for true love, she is interesting and realistic in her dialog, nerves, tics,self-talk, all of it. I love her even though she sometimes seems a bit of a doofus. Okay, a total doofus sometimes. As most of us are. I think many are bullying her character just because they can
Finally! A good date! Thank you Christine for not screwing it up too much. ^^ :D :)

He's soooooooooo gorgeous !
Oh. That's a thought. Good one. Kind of like going to a bar and pretending you don't know your spouse and picking each other up. Nice idea.
Gotta love the mixed kids ;)
I love Christine!
I was also thinking the same, or maybe he has something that he wouldn't want to pass on to his kids.
This is only a guess, but her conversations with herself I think are like Dexter's voice overs on Showtimes Dexter. I don't think anyone else is supposed to be able to hear her, it's done out loud for our benefit, so we can have a glimpse into her mind's workings.
Something that they're passionate about...but most of us have to settle for having our hobbies be our passions - if we've even found our passion yet
lol.. "one shot would have done it"
"probably"
i wonder if they were making a subtle reference to his famous CSI departure?
True enough! LOL!! I'll make you a deal, if we don't get a definite answer we can hang around the message boards and make one up! Somehow, though.... the Dakota series restored my faith in Wigs being able to come up with some kind of closure...
When he said adopt children I immediately thought that hw could be sterile!
That was an interesting interaction...but to all those who are being unduly critical of Christine...think how you would be in that setting, you might very well be critical too--you only have a few moments to figure out your stance on many different people and decide if you want to pursue anything further w/ them, I'd be critical and speculative too!
I think they did, After the bell rung and they were having the 'very nice meeting you' conversation there were some shuffling sounds below the camera , probably on the table. Just that the camera was focusing on their faces instead of their hands.
OMG he is my fave so far. So sweet, smart and awesome seeming. She should pick him!! LOL
What a charmer...
I wouldn't change my travel experiences ever. However, I wouldn't recommend it. It was what it was. I no longer have that life and I am fortunate nothing ever happened to me. Made me write some interesting poetry. Travelled From CA to the Yukon (Alaska). Learned a lot. Inspired me to start visiting other continents......Some people said I was foolish and I agree whole heartedly. Yet, I was a teenager who was longing to experience another life, too see the world. Well, that was a life time ago..
I love his voice.
Exactly what I was thinking.
i'm waiting for the next guy to be like a detective or something.
