Pilot Review: Hidden Palms
Type: hour drama
not on the schedule (yet)

People:

  • taylor handley (oliver trask on "the o.c.")

  • sharon lawrence (maisy gibbons on "desperate housewives")

  • gail o'grady (ava summerlin on "hot properties")

  • michael cassidy (zach stevens on "the o.c.")



Plot:
Desperate Housewives + The O.C. + some other crap. It has some unexpected (and dark) twists, which could work.
Some weird stuff that doesn't really add up. They replaced gabrielle with an Asian chick, but the redhead, the blonde and the secretly crazy one are all there. Also, Beverly Leslie ehh, Leslie Jordan (Will&Grace) guests as a crossdresser. Weird.
All in all, I think too many plotlines are being introduced too fast. Makes for a confusing pilot. I can see people liking this though.
Obligatory Coldplay, Jack Johnson and Dido tracks included.

Too too too many plot lines the whole episode was confusing i mean what is the show about, just like you said what is it Desperate Housewives, The O.C. and lots of other crap!!! If they can seriously run with this many plot lines and keep the show afloat for more than half a season these would some of the best damn writers and crew!!!!

There are many ways you can help Children’s.

Whether tragic events touch your family personally or are brought into your home via newspapers and television, you can help children cope with the anxiety that violence, death, and disasters can cause.

Listening and talking to children about their concerns can reassure them that they will be safe. Start by encouraging them to discuss how they have been affected by what is happening around them. Even young children may have specific questions about tragedies. Children react to stress at their own developmental level.

The Caring for Every Child's Mental Health Campaign offers these pointers for parents and other caregivers:

* Encourage children to ask questions. Listen to what they say. Provide comfort and assurance that address their specific fears. It's okay to admit you can't answer all of their questions.
* Talk on their level. Communicate with your children in a way they can understand. Don't get too technical or complicated.
* Find out what frightens them. Encourage your children to talk about fears they may have. They may worry that someone will harm them at school or that someone will try to hurt you.
* Focus on the positive. Reinforce the fact that most people are kind and caring. Remind your child of the heroic actions taken by ordinary people to help victims of tragedy.
* Pay attention. Your children's play and drawings may give you a glimpse into their questions or concerns. Ask them to tell you what is going on in the game or the picture. It's an opportunity to clarify any misconceptions, answer questions, and give reassurance.
* Develop a plan. Establish a family emergency plan for the future, such as a meeting place where everyone should gather if something unexpected happens in your family or neighborhood. It can help you and your children feel safer.

If you are concerned about your child's reaction to stress or trauma, call your physician or a community mental health center.
