Switched at Birth Season 2 Episode 3 Duel of Two Women Preview I rarely begin to follow a television show while it is in its first
season for fear that it will be canceled. Yet this one drew me in and I
cannot get enough of it. The idea of being switched at birth is so
bizarre, and the dynamics of both families are so real. The raw emotion
and feelings portrayed by these characters makes me feel sorry for and
sometimes resent them all at the same time. The drama always keeps me
eager to see what will happen on the next episode. The writers may have
struck gold with this one.
Katie(Daphne)and Vanessa(Bay) play two very different girls that are connected by this event that happened to them so many years ago. Even though they have nothing in common, they have more in common than they realize. Constance(Regina)is stubborn yet likable and plays it beautifully, as do the two actors who play the other set of parents. Each character has a way of making you care about them, a way of making you root for them to make the right decision. Great job ABC Family, keep up the good work and I'll be coming back for more every Monday night.
When I saw the first commercial for this show, my interest was piqued. I admit it, I've always been interested in this type of storyline. not exactly "feel good" subjects, but fascinating nonetheless. But then I remembered the network this show is on. It's not bad in and of itself, but when I look at The Secret Life of the American Teenager -- another show I thought had an intriguing plot but was ruined quickly with horrible acting and unrealistic story lines -- and I got a little bit leery.
I was mistaken, and I'm glad I was.
This series shows promise, like a previous reviewer said. The cast is great (I love Vanessa Marano and Lea Thompson, so right there I was sold). The premise is fascinating, and the acting is GOOD. I'm actually really surprised this wasn't pitched at a network/that a network didn't pick it up, because it has a lot of potential. I hope it stays this good.
