"They could have started by cutting Billis and that whole subplot... :-) "
Even though I played Billis in high school, I agree that his is the most poorly written role in the show by far, ESPECIALLY all the time they spend on that long, involved, silly plot point where he creates a military diversion by falling out of a plane. (They spent EVEN MORE time on that in the movie version, and actually depicted it, presumably for the sake of humor, but I don't find it funny AT ALL).
I think it's a great tribute to Danny Burstein that he was able to make the character bearable and at least mildly amusing, though I do think there were pretty big cuts in the particular scene where the incident referenced above is recounted. |
