Author: codebreaker    Time: 8-2-2011 13:20     Subject: Ringer Season 1 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Ringer Premiered on The CW on September 13, 2011



Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as a woman who, after witnessing a murder, goes on the run, hiding out by assuming the life of her wealthy identical twin sister – only to learn that her sister's seemingly idyllic life is just as complicated and dangerous as the one she's trying to leave behind. Bridget is six months sober and starting to turn her life around when she is the sole witness to a professional hit. Despite the assurances of her FBI protector, Agent Victor Machado, Bridget knows her life is on the line. She flees to New York, telling no one, not even her Narcotics Anonymous sponsor, Malcolm. In New York, Bridget reunites with her estranged twin, Siobhan. Wealthy, pampered and married to the strikingly handsome Andrew Martin, Siobhan lives what appears to be a fairy tale life – a life where no one knows that Bridget exists. The sisters seem to be mending their frayed relationship, until Siobhan disappears overboard during a boat trip, and Bridget makes the split decision to take on her sister's identity. She discovers shocking secrets, not only about her sister and her marriage, but also about Siobhan's best friend, Gemma, and Gemma's husband, Henry. And when someone tries to kill Bridget in her sister's penthouse, she realizes she is no safer as Siobhan than she is as herself.

The series stars Sarah Michelle Gellar as Bridget and Siobhan, Kristoffer Polaha as Henry, Ioan Gruffudd as Andrew Martin, Nestor Carbonell as Agent Victor Machado and Tara Summers as Gemma.

RINGER is produced by CBS Television Studios and Warner Bros. Television in association with ABC Television Studios and Brillstein Entertainment with executive producers Pam Veasey ("CSI, NY," "The District"), Peter Traugott ("Samantha Who?") and Emmy Award-winner Richard Shepard ("Ugly Betty"). The pilot was directed by Richard Shepard.

Interesting first episode but Siobhan disappearing off the boat was to convenient so i thought they had both swapped places not knowing what trouble they are both in which was then confirmed at the end
Author: codebreaker    Time: 9-22-2011 11:02     Subject: 1x02 She's Ruining Everything

That was a close call with the body but then the blood and the phone call which was amusing and then the body disappearing

Yep i have say this was ok episode but why does she keep ringing her sponsor? i liked how she helping the daughter with her problem and flashback are a nice way of giving the back story
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-1-2011 08:33     Subject: 1x03 If You Ever Want A French Lesson

Bridget going to see the FBI agent was a smart move so she had some leverage over the phone but when she was looking to see who rang her about her scarf was amusing
Author: shinny    Time: 10-1-2011 15:40     Subject: Reply 7#7 codebreaker's post

Yep, that was clever.

I wonder why real Siobhan is trying to kill her sister? I feel like we don't know a lot of what went on when Bridget was an addict. I'm sure it will all come out!
Author: bala    Time: 10-2-2011 07:25     Subject: Reply 7#7 codebreaker's post

Well she was smart but the question now is how she will find out who behind it or will it dragged out for whole season. Siobhan is in France and where she hiding out but we have no idea why she left apart from the fact she was in unhappy marriage and how she fake the pregnancy but great cliffhanger with pregnancy stick
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-8-2011 04:13     Subject: 1x04 It's Gonna Kill Me, But I'll Do It

The shared necklace was a nice way to keep in touch with each other but what Gemma over heard about the baby was going to make the Hampton's trip more interesting
Author: shinny    Time: 10-8-2011 05:06

I found this episode quite predictable actually, which was a bit disappointing. The minute "Siobhán" told Gemma about her sister I knew it was all going to come out about her and Henry and that she'd be forced to tell her she wasn't the real Siobhán.

CW Gives Sarah Michelle Gellar Drama ‘Ringer’ Full-Season Order



On the heels of a big ratings rebound last night, the CW’s new drama series Ringer has been given a full-season order. After a decent start, the Sarah Michelle Gellar-starring mystery kept sliding against original competition on the major broadcasting networks until it spiked 33% in the adults 18-49 (0.8) and adults 18-34 demographics and 15% in viewers (1.7 million) last night with an episode featuring the demise of a supporting character. Will we see more people being whacked on Ringer in the following weeks to keep the ratings up? Originally developed for CBS, Ringer was co-created by Nicole Snyder and Eric Charmelo. CBS TV Studios and Warner Bros. TV are producing in association with ABC Television Studios and Brillstein Entertainment, with Pam Veasey, Peter Traugott and Richard Shepard executive producing.

Yes it was nice way to keep in touch but i have to say telling her she was bridget was a risk

Well i have to say we don't know what he done to her but I am hoping he didn't kill her and Bridget standing up to her blackmail was good as the risk to her truth but now he done her a favour.

At leased Gemma knows from the missing burn mark that Bridget was telling the truth but threatening her to sleep with her husband was clever but what an ending and Juliet was a handful

Well i have to say what Bridget did call cop with evidence look suspicious but it was smart thinking and now we know who was responsible but seriously no matter how much i like a women i wouldn't clean up a murder scene for her?
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-23-2011 07:05     Subject: Reply 19#19 bala's post

Juliet standing up to the bully at her new school was great but the way her father reacted was expected considering her past and how ironic that when the teacher comes to her aid and he asks them to apologise when he also thought it was her fault and Gemma's disappearance was interesting

Author: bala    Time: 11-3-2011 01:31     Subject: Oh Gawd, There's Two of Them?

Well look like we know who was responsible for Gemma disappearance but having other one hire the killer was great twist.

Bridget leaving herself the voice message was a clever move to keep the police of her back and Malcolm's escape looked too easy but i cant wait to see how she explains the ultrasound
Author: bala    Time: 11-5-2011 08:31     Subject: Reply 23#23 codebreaker's post

yeah what a stupid thing to do faint when she saw Malcolm so it will be interesting

Author: bala    Time: 11-10-2011 00:04     Subject: Maybe We Can Get A Dog Instead?

Well what a way to cover the pregnancy with doctor telling them she lost the baby but nice lie about blood making sound like miscarriage and quick thinking about the wire
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-14-2011 13:26     Subject: Reply 26#26 bala's post

How she explained the ultrasound was impressive and having most people feeling sorry for her was an added bonus and I'm surprised Malcolm didn't realise there was something wrong before the waiter brought the note and Tyler must be the last one who don't know they are twins

Bridget's response when she realised she's growing fond of Andrew was amusing but going to Siobhan's doctor was risky and that was smart of Malcolm to have doubts about Bridget's new sponsor but tragic how close he was to finding Gemma
Author: bala    Time: 11-22-2011 00:54     Subject: Reply 30#30 codebreaker's post

it was crazy how close he was one door away but that call changed it
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-22-2011 00:59     Subject: Reply 31#31 bala's post

With him knowing shes on to him it will be a lot harder to find Gemma and they will probably never know how close they were

Yeah but she could escape it look like chair she was on might got crack from the fall

So they know Charlie has Gemma because of her phone but proving it is going to be really hard and how ironic that Henry was the one that got Gemma killed by involving the cops but Gemma surviving the first shot was a surprise

Siobhan's face when she seen Bridget kissing Andrew was amusing but that was a close call taking a copy of his files and Malcolm going to work for Andrew should be interesting, I'm not surprised about Greer being confused considering she was talking to the wrong twin

What Juliet's mother said after watching the video was not what i expected but the waterworks were impressive and Henry following Siobhan and the cop fingerprinting her was interesting

It does follow same pattern as lying game telling another character the secret of twins.

Bridget using the newly sober line to retraces Siobhan's last steps prior to her disappearance was clever but Siobhan secret office and the key hidden underneath was interesting, Siobhan face was a picture when Andrew kissed her but at leased she got the key back and what a scam to get her father money

Bridget flash back to how Siobhan's son died was tragic and Juliet's mother being behind the scam was a surprise but makes sense why she wants her to live with her now

Finally things are look great this is how tv show should do a season by giving the information slowly but also satisfaction for the number of episodes we watch unlike pretty little liars which takes it too far. We know everything but switching between them is now getting confusing during the episodes.

I had a feeling that Machado's stripper friend Shaylene going back one last time and not telling him she was pregnant was going to be fatal and it looks like Olivia killed Tyler but will Andrew kill Malcolm
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-15-2012 11:18     Subject: 1x17 What We Have Is Worth The Pain

Siobhan explaining to Henry why she faked her death was interesting and the fact she had manipulate Bridget into assuming her identity was impressive and I'm glad Juliet figured out who was behind the attack on Tessa but the end was a surprise

I was half expecting the phone call Andrew received when Henry asked to speak to Siobhan was from Bridget and Juliet going missing was predictable after what her mother has done
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-1-2012 16:06     Subject: 1x19 Let's Kill Bridget

Machado giving the guy with the suit a beating was interesting and Bridget deciding to testify but as Siobhan pretending to be Bridget could get confusing so his idea to fake Bridget's death would make things easier

Wow what an fantastic plan to get close Bridget obvious she doesn't know she is but i have say this character is pure evil even for a tv show she intelligent and way she played her daughter again to convince her she was crazy needed to stay with them was amazing. She really deserved a prize for her performance in this episode.

Catherine attempted suicide was an extreme measures to get closer to Andrew but i am surprised Bridget hasn't put two and two together and realised Siobhan is still alive

Monday on the business card was a nice try but very risky considering Bridget had a gun to her head but how bad can a plan go wrong with first Andrew and then Juliet coming home early and all along she was trying to kill the wrong twin

Henry not being the biological father i seen coming and i have a sneaking felling that Andrew probable is the father but Bridget coming clean about who she is after Andrew found out about Siobhan cheating was too late, i think Bridget was lucky the Siobhan was attacked by mistake because i think she was there to try and kill her to get her life back
