Episode Review:
Bridget Redefined
Marshal Younger is known for writing episodes that provide realistic snapshots of the fears, worries, and struggles of everyday life. He’s penned “A Call for Reverend Jimmy”, where Jimmy felt the pressure to be like his dad...“Preacher’s Kid”, where Donna felt the pressure to be perfect...and “Letting Go!”, where Zachary Sellers had trouble with his mother dating again. Compare each of these episodes and you’ll notice that they do not start with over-the-top inciting incidents, or take place in flashy settings, or even feature main characters with very clear goals -- instead, for much of the episode’s running time, we’re shown contemplative and somewhat melancholic characters internally wrestling with the pressures brought about by their previously-established life circumstances.
