Spyder Games

Okay. This is my new favorite soap opera. "Spyder Games" basically deals with the corrupt and out of whack Carslile family, and their father Boris, who created the video game corporation known as Spyder Games. Dimitri Carslile is back in Fort Kent after a stint in Hollywood, and the only daughter Natalia is busy as a powerless vp at the company. The youngest of the Carslile brood, Sasha (and, by the way, is a dead on lookalike w/ Ryan Philippe), is busy getting his rear end in all sorts of trouble and gettin his freak on w/ someone that is seven years older than him-the beautiful 23-year old Taylor. Little does he know that his best girl friend Cherish Pardee is head over heels in love w/ him. Meanwhile, the second oldest Carslile, Ivan, is getting ready to marry his sweetheart Kate. May I add that Ivan and Natalia both hate their father, while Dimitri is the pet and Sasha is spoiled w/ Boris' lax attitude. What happens next?? Well, you're just gonna hafta find out. Okay, time for the review! This is a great show. Funny subplots, very delicately worked mysteries, and kickass scandals that'll make you gasp. See the wedding episode and see what I mean. It's crazy! I think my favorite female character is the owner of Come-On's Boutique (Daphne), where Taylor and Cherish both work. She's hilarious and wacky and totally into soap operas. She misses an intricate part of the plot because she was tuned in to BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL, for god's sake! I don't like Taylor. She's a total B**** for telling Cherish to go for Sasha while secretly boinking him in the janitor closet!...Okay okay, you got me...my favorite male character has GOT to be the most BEAUTIFUL man I've EVER SEEN, Sasha Carslile. He is SO GORGEOUS! And I totally think that Robert Hutchinson (the guy who plays him) will go really far. All in all, watch "Spyder Games"!

As the story progresses it became quite interesting. It certainly moves at a faster pace than the traditional daytime soap. Certainly MUCH better than that other nebie soap Passions in my opinion. Shawn Batten is excellent and rocks and I hope to see her in more in the future.

This show is exactly why I am a slave to MTV's target marketing, even if I'm not in the TRL demographic! Understandably, it's not very cerebral, but it's what I look for when I hit MTV; it's engagingly entertaining. I enjoy the storylines on 'Undressed', but this show - since it's a serial - can expand on the relationships beyond a week or two. The interview of Byron Field (Ivan) in OUT was what got me interested in watching, and I haven't been disappointed. And from singing telegram girl to coffeeshop owner, I haven't gotten to see this much of Jane Wiedlin outside of E! in a long time! The only recommendation I have is to let Natalia quote Dolores Claiborne more often. I hope it keeps rolling...

Like most MTV shows (The Real World, Daria, Undressed) this show was pure fun and addictive. Though, this show was part soap opera part the aforementioned Undressed. It's trashy, wicked fun. I thought it was practically delicious! LOL. The cast seemed too perform well, despite most of it's overwrought plots.

Okay, yeah I watch the show everynight at 10:00. It's okay but it keeps my intrest. Not to mention Robert Hutchinson(Sasha) Joseph Cacia(Dmirti) and Bryce Mouer(Lyle) aren't bad looking. And they also have a few good looking women. Some actors stand out a little more. Like Shawn Batten(Natalia) and Joseph are little more oveouis. But the other cast hasn't had too much experince, but wiht time I think they will be know for their ablties, than looks. So if you're up at 10:00 and borad you can click to MTV. Lets say that it's a lot better than MTV's "Undressed".(alot better with the acting)
