Spyder Games

I could do without any other of these dumb, cheesy drama shows. But in my opinion, this show is like a up-to-date twisted soap. It is relatively good. Every episode has something you don't expect. I will admit, it is a little cheesy. (All soaps are.) But the actors are good at least! I can't wait to find out what happens - and I hope this show isn't canceled. ***** of *****

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"!

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 so SPYDER GAMES will never win an EMMY, or GOLDEN GLOBE, Okay so it will never win any award, but it is definetly one of the most engaging and intriguing series i have ever seen. The plots and sub-plots are shocking and hilarous and moving and dramatic. The acting is what u should expect from what is made up of mostly newcomers. however soem performances, like those of Shawn Batten, and Christina Chambers are standouts! The guys are goodlooking, like byron fields (the incredably sexy Ivan), Bryce Mouer (Lyle), and the hottest of them all the one and only Dimitri Carlise himself (cannot remember his name). The writing is aboslutley great! i would recommend this show to anyone that is into sexy, escaptist fun! bravo to MTV for creating and airing such a brillant, sexy and overall great series!

A late-night soap opera with hi-tech overtones, SPYDER GAMES proves to be a slick entry. The misadventures of the kids of a dead mogul are shown in different emotional categories, whether it be love, jealousy, or greed. MTV created yet another kind of personal roller coaster rides in the lives of young people, much like UNDRESSED. Only this time, the storylines of SPYDER GAMES are a lot more intriguing than mundane sex stories like in UNDRESSED.
