Positively Positive Review – Royal Pains: Spasticity

Royal Pains Spasticity Spencer and Hank

Okay I know I already talked about my dislike of summer in my Burn Notice review. But as I watched the season premiere of Royal Pains, I thought about how summer doesn’t look so bad on that show. They actually make it look good. Pretty people, pretty beaches, pretty houses. Heck, if summer had always looked like that to me, I’d be all over it.

So I guess the solution is to move to the Hamptons, right? 😉

Until then I guess I’ll have to settle for watching Royal Pains and live vicariously through that. Not a bad alternative actually. The season premiere started out right were we left off last season, with HankMed in financial ruin and all of it Evan’s fault for trusting their money with their father. Divya is now unhappily engaged, Jill finally said goodbye to her ex and poor Hank doesn’t know who to be more mad at, his brother or his father.

Other than that, it’s pretty much business as usual as Hank and his team have to save a man who seems intent on getting into more accidents than the law allows.

My favorite bits…

Enjoying all the lovely scenery of the Hamptons. I don’t know why but I’ve always liked the look of those beaches more than my other hometown beaches. So pretty.

Hank knowing exactly where to find Evan, also knowing without a doubt that their dad had run out on him and so upset that “despite my best efforts, it looks like there’s still one sucker left in this family”. Oh man, so much pain and history in that one sentence.

The way Divya just decided to just move on from the fact that she got engaged to a man she doesn’t love. Whoa girl.

Evan being able to tell that Divya got engaged without her actually saying the words.

The conversation between Hank and Boris in the garden. So far Boris has been the one seeking out Hank so it was interesting to see that flipped around as he became disappointed in him.

Disliking (in a good way) Marcia Gay Harden’s character the moment she appeared on screen and knowing that is precisely she’s been added to the cast. Methinks she’s gonna be quite the foe to Jill in the future.

The way Dieter silently and methodically delivered the file to Hank. I could be mistaken but I don’t think Dieter has ever said one word and yet I still find him a really funny character.

Evan coming back to face the music and immediately working on re-booting Hank Med’s finances.

The lights on the floor acting as a guide in the mansion. Cool stuff.

Evan coining the term “spasticity”. Love it. Sometimes I’ve felt that way myself.

Evan’s “Look at these, you tell me these are not BEGGING to be pressed.” LOL, he’s such a child sometimes.

The “I told you so” way that Dr. Blair took a bite of her sandwich when the nurse told Jill that Hank was waiting in her office. Hilarious!

Hank and Jill’s ultra awkward first talk since her ex left town. Ouch. That hurt to watch.

Evan many phone calls trying to drum up business….(“Yes, I can stick it.”…”There’s that catchy hold music again.”) – LOL!

The look on Spencer’s face and his “That’s how this works??” when he saw Hank with the pliers. Dude, you nail your hand to a wall, you betcha you’re gonna need tools to get it back out.

Spencer’s troubling memories over his father echoed on Hank’s face when he advised Spencer to just stay away from the room. Seems like that’s been Hank’s modus operandi – stay away from the problem. I gotta agree though, sometimes that can be the sanest solution to insanity.

Evan’s HankMed infomercial. Oh man, now I’m kinda hoping that USA decides to film one as part of an ad campaign. How awesome would that be?

Divya pointing out that Evan first needs to regain Hank’s trust as his brother, then as his CFO. So true.

Hank spotting that what is needed to help Boris is someone to look at the whole picture and be his “quarterback”. Hmm…interesting.

Spencer slamming himself into his panic room door. Eek!

Jill having the balls to excuse herself from her own disciplinary hearing to save a life. Nice!

Evan’s way out of the doghouse being through the panic room door to press the button and set Spencer free. Yay Evan!

I just love watching Hank work when there’s someone who needs his help. He even apparently got on the good side of Dr. Blair. Way to go, Hank.

Aw poor Evan. So awful that his dad always asks about Hank before asking about him.

Hank finding out that Spencer wasn’t suffering from spasticity after all.

Evan selling his car to help clean up the mess he made with HankMed’s finances.

The brothers making up while tossing a football. So sweet.

Yelling out “Ha! Psyche!” when Evan ran deep for the ball and Hank left him there. I saw that coming from a mile away.

Henry Winkler showing up as the boys’ dad. Fonzie is their dad? Cool!

Practically jumping out of my chair in shock when Hank punched out his father. Okay so yeah, I didn’t see that one coming. Wow.

Overall a premiere episode that added some new characters while giving the familiar ones some new challenges. A great start to the new season.
